I'm pretty sure the wild ass attempts at stalking/contact he pulled after that was less about me, and more about the photos of his grandson. Those are bragging rights. I wonder if he's on any of these estranged parent forums.

I didn't even really think about it. He said some racist shit, I realized he had only pretended to have become a better person, and I bounced. I only realized in hindsight what an especially devastating move that likely was for a man as shitty and narcissistic as my father is.

"Estranged adult child" discussions are fascinating. I attempted to reconnect with my dad through Facebook back when I was pregnant, figuring he deserved to know he was a granddad. I ghosted him not longer after. Really ghosted. No explanation, locked down the privacy on my account, blocked him.

In other words, as a rule of thumb, a high-profile race with polls showing the Democrat up 4 is probably actually a dead heat. A Dem up 5 points or more is probably safe. Up 3 or fewer is probably a loss. The lesson here is to keep the foot on the gas. Don't let up until polls close.

Lots of good polling for Democrats right now. Keep in mind, however, that polling in the last few cycles has been significantly off (~4 points in big races), generally to the benefit of Republicans. My sense is that this is because voting for Trump drives shame. So respondents simply lie.

Being a cartoonist sometimes implies taking time off your graphic novel just so you can draw something else for once. Retro sci-fi/cassette futurism, especially of the anime kind, is very nostalgic to me.

An illustration all in purples and yellows. A woman in mechanic attire is sitting inside a capsule-style bedroom, lit by the sun through a small window. She's having dumplings. The setting is retro sci-fi or cassette futurism, with lots of pipes and analog screens decorating the surroundings. The illustration is very cluttered visually.

My big advice for new comics writers is to at least try to learn to draw. I think it's important to know what you are asking of your coworker when you ask for 40 horses on bikes jousting over the course of 12 panels. Then change it to jaguars.

More old LoZ art from 2021! I started a series of illustrations of boss battles from A Link to the Past but only got three in before I got too busy with other things.

An illustration of Link fighting Armos, a big red monster like a suit of armour. It swipes its massive sword down at him as he aims his bow.

An illustration of Link fighting Lanmola, a giant evil caterpillar monster. As it coils around him he stabs it with a sword.

Link fighting Moldorm - a segmented worm monster with huge bulging eyes and an eyeball flower at the end of its tail. Link is leaping down up with sword raised, aimed at Moldorm's head.
