New lil' mini prints of my girls that I'll have at NYCC. Fun fact, I originally wasn't chosen as an artist for MLP and was a writer because my ponies look like llamas. I decided to just lean into the llama and here we are.

Epi sat on a signature I was waiting to dry before packing up….. So I had to fix it. Now it’s my favorite signature of the bunch because cat butt was involved.

New era of life: if you ask how I'm doing I do not answer "fine" or "good." You are getting honesty. You are getting "I'm surviving" or "whatllyado" or "cranking away" or "treading water." And you are getting it delivered with a manic shaky smile. Are you uncomfortable? So am I. IT'S 2026 HELL YEAH.

Happy mushroom season!

A witch's butter on a branch is labeled "jiggles if you poke it". A large puffball is labeled "egg". A creepy red-dripping bleeding tooth fungus is labeled "deeply disconcerting". A fly agaric with a green treefrog sitting under it is labeled "frog umbrella". A black chanterelle is labeled "chalice for forbidden elixers". Three straight-stemmed entolomas are labeled "haha, nipples". A bright purple viscid violet cort is labeled "purple is nice". A birch polypore sticking out of a birch trunk is labeled "tree nose". A complex yellow-tpped coral fungus is labeled "cursed citadel where dwells a fairy queen". A Ravenel's stinkhorn is pixellated at the top for your safety, and labeled "NSFW".

Take a break from being depressed that everything you love is being destroyed by slop for a moment and let me tell you about the beautiful symbiotic relationship between graffiti writers, train yard workers, and model train enthusiasts.

If I have three days to get a set of chores done, I will probably procrastinate and get only half of it done. If I have two weeks, I’ll start right away and get it all done in two days. What are brains??

#makeaterriblecomicday2026 Hamham gets brutal.
A four-panel comic of a little hamster reciting lines.

First panel narration: Doing a mean imitation of myself.

Dialogue:

Panel 1: Ahem. Kaf.

Panel 2: I'm tired. I'm hungry.

Panel 3: I'm the wrong temperature!

Panel 4, the hamster is holding a toy and his eyes are glowing: I have a small plastic figurine and I will never die.

Rewatching Real Genius (1985) tonight and I have to say it ages pretty well. I’ve been noticing how much 80s nostalgia overlooks how much of the media had themes of anti-war/anti-military industrial complex, especially toward the end of the decade. This movie isn’t even subtle about it.
Post for Real Genius featuring Val Kilmer in shorts, a “I ❤️ toxic waste” t-shirt, and bunny slippers sitting on a office desk while wearing novelty antenna on his head as he points to a hovering gyroscope. 

“MEET CHRIS KNIGHT, THE EINSTEIN OF THE 80's.
He can turn lasers into light shows,
armchairs into aircraft, and high tech into high jinks.
But when his professor steals his prize invention he turns revenge into high comedy.
REAL GENIUS
When he gets mad, he doesn't get even... he gets creative.

One is an emergency response when our neighbors are in danger of being kidnapped. The other is a planned gathering to show how many of us want Ice and CBP and their ilk to stop kidnapping our neighbors. Or beating them up. Or murdering them. Our neighbors, and everybody's neighbors.

Can people talking about Minneapolis, St. Paul, greater Minnesota, and other places with a lot of ICE action please start drawing distinctions between observers and protestors? If I respond to whistles and horns around an ICE action, I am observing. If I plan to go march, I'm protesting.
