Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now.

We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

The world is watching.

4 frame comic. A guy with an American flag t shirt asks a woman with a Cochran Mamdani shirt : what do you care if Mamdani wins or loses? You're not even American. She replies : Americans have made sure through centuries of imperialism that whatever choice they make, the whole world will face the consequences. We are tired of hearing the gerontocrats standing between fascists and power telling us that the only way to defeat the far-right is to always move farther right ourselves. We want leaders who have the courage to stand up for the ideals, not political weathervanes willing to say whatever gets them closer to power,

As someone who spent 13 years homeless, this is a good list & I wanna expand on it:

-Rice & beans are cheap & can make many meals
-Preserved meats (hot dogs, kielbasa, spam) are extremely versatile
-Kids LOVE receiving canned soups like Campbell's or Chef Boyardee
-Ramen is cheap & wanted

As wobble has been pointing out there are alot of common things that arent given as much, though in all truth the best thing you can give is cash and time

Most food kitchens/pantries can get things at rates that we cannot in bulk

I'm so goddamn tired of saying this but: this is it.

All the worrying that trans folks have had since he took office? This is why. This is the first step on a short road that ends with the criminalization of trans existence in the US. It isn't doomsaying. It isn't panic. It's right in front of us.

ALL SOULS EVE (2024)
Acrylic on Canvas - 9 ½” x 7”

With leaves starting to fall and temperatures cooling, the color patterns on this scrap of canvas shifted me right into the Halloween spirit. 1/2

Against a dark, abstract backdrop, a redheaded beauty poses surrounded by ghastly faces, but she seems more conjuror than captive. Her knee is raised as if she’s springing upward. Cobwebs stretch behind her and swirl around her upraised hand. A gray bat flies off from her abracadabra flourish. The sorceress is bare-chested wearing long white skirts with a red and yellow belt that dips in a V. The bottom of her skirts blend with creatures at the bottom of the panel, a transition from ghostly white to tormented gray. The background is pure hellscape that suggests perhaps a gnarled tree or the infernal stone of a cave. On closer examination, it seems to be made of twisted souls. Orange background show through at the panel edges, criss-crossed by tendrils, cobwebs or what have you but still providing a vibrant pop of color.

1. This week, news emerged that former trans athlete, student at Middlebury, and advocate for trans rights, Lia Smith, was found dead.

Her death was ruled a suicide.

But I argue that it's not only a suicide. Every trans suicide is a murder by those in power.

Cover of I JUST CAME FROM HELL. It shows a pregnant Jes holding her belly in front of a negative tree. A pair of bloody hands reach out to grab her.

Page 1
Five Panels

1 - EXT. Wide shot. The entrance to Cebe’s Hand, a wild swampland in the Florida Panhandle. While not as wild as being inside Cebe’s Hand will be. There is still tons of foliage and greenery around. A deer drinks from a nearby bed of water. An alligator lies in wait.

JES (Off-Panel): June 6th, 2017.

JES (OP): Lisa Leung arrived in Devil’s Garden, Florida with her now deceased fiancé, Jonathan Johnson, to visit his estranged parents, William & Mary, also now deceased.

2 - The Alligator slowly and quietly swims up towards the deer, who unknowingly continues to drink.

JES (OP): What was supposed to be a day of reconciliation transformed into a night of horrors.

3 - Suddenly, the deer jerks its head up from drinking.

SFX: shf shf

JES (OP) A night where only Lisa would survive.

4 - …and darts away before the Alligator can strike.

JES (OP): Supposedly, a church fire would claim 33 souls that night. Their bodies have never been found.

JES (OP): But that doesn’t explain what happened next.

5 - Lisa, the noise that alerted the deer, walks down a dirt road, naked and bloodsoaked.

JES (OP): The following morning, as the sun’s light broke over the horizon…

JES (OP): …Lisa was seen stumbling, naked and bloodsoaked, down an old dirt road that leads from Cebe’s Hand, a tangled web of swampland that stretches across the Florida panhandle.

Page 2
Seven Panels

1 - Sheridan Porter, a white man in his late 50s with leather tan skin, drives a middle of the road pick up truck. Not new, but not a beater either. It’s well maintained despite its age. He had a quizzical look on his face as he tries to make sense of this figure he sees ahead.

JES (OP): Sheridan Porter, a Good Samaritan, who happened to be driving to his favorite fishing spot, was the first to find her.

2 - Wide shot of the truck pulling over as it nears Lisa.

JES (OP): When he noticed the state Lisa was in, he pulled to the side of the road to help.

3 - Sheridan exits his truck as Lisa passes him by.

JES (OP): As Sheridan approached, he could hear her talking to herself.

LISA (to herself): I don’t know. I don’t know. I took a leap of faith…

4 - Sheridan approaches Lisa who does not notice him at all.

JES (OP): If this all wasn’t strange enough, Lisa didn’t even notice him.

JES (OP): It was like she was somewhere else. Lost in her own mind.

LISA (to herself): This isn’t right. It shouldn’t be possible, but you’re still here.

5 - Lisa collapses into Sherdian’s arms.

JES (OP): Sheridan stopped her and asked for her name and she immediately collapsed in his arms.

SHERIDAN: Ma’am, are you okay? What happened to you?

6 - She weakly looks up at him. We can see both of them in this panel.

JES (OP): She looked at him, finally realizing where she was, and quietly uttered a single sentence.

7 - Extreme close-up on Lisa’s exhausted, bloodsoaked face.

JES (OP): M-my name is Lisa Johnson, and…
