I made a maze book. I'm proud of it. You might like it. Check it out this gift-giving season, it might be a good fit for one of your weird friends.

If it's not your bag, I'd appreciate a share.

The back cover of "You Can See Yourself Out" continues the punk, collage-style design. It features several hand-drawn maze examples, including a large maze shaped like a detailed guitar amplifier stack with the prompt "FIND THE TONE!" There are three smaller maze panels displayed on ripped paper: one featuring scattered food items, another with what appears to be a person running, and a third with small objects. The collage background includes a slice of pizza, a brown piece of cardboard with an abstract black symbol, pieces of grey duct tape, leopard print, and the artist's handle, @AIXELSYD13. A busy, punk-style collage book cover for "You Can See Yourself Out," a collection of hand-drawn mazes. The title is made from colorful, cut-out magazine letters over a background of ripped notebook paper and leopard print. Imagery includes a brain-shaped hamburger, a detailed illustration of human digestive organs (which is a maze), and several example maze panels, including one in red and one featuring a spray paint can. The cover describes the contents as "A collection of fun, irreverent, festive, & wild hand-drawn mazes" and credits the artist @AIXELSYD13.

The downfall of society began when we lost the Potato Sack from the mall food court.

Fries? Sure. Gravy? Sure. Cheese? Shure? Baked potaotes with cheese, broccoli, and/or bacon? Sure. Potato skins with cheese, bacon and/or sour cream? Sure. Potatoes are a healing food. 🥔

I hate the Lent season when fish sullies every deep ffyer, and shellfish looms with the threat of death by cross-contamination induced anaphylaxis.

Hit me up with your Celtic Punk Rock song suggestions. Songs. Names. Not Spotify/YouTube links or just names of bands with the suggestion to peep their whole catalog. Songs with band names. Please.

Not strictly limited to Celtic punk. Some more folksy stuff or even metal welcome.

I feel like it’s been a while since I posted a maze. Here’s 3, with black and white and color options for each. I have posted them on social media, but they’ll probably be slightl…

Wanna solve some mazes while you contemplate shoveling snow?
Hand-drawn black-and-white maze filled with dense winding paths. A green snow shovel marks the start in the upper left, and a red front door marks the exit in the lower right. Blue arrows indicate the entrance and exit. Text in the maze reads, “Can you shovel through the snow to get to the front door?” Hand-drawn black-and-white maze filled with dense winding paths.

I think I mentioned the things that get pǝlʇʇoɹɥʇ in another post... but I have a legitimate question for artists, especially ones that hand-draw activity pages like mazes, puzzles, coloring pages, etc.:

For people that sell mazes, puzzles, or any other type of downloadable art on Etsy. Is it worth it, do you do well, do you have to advertise?

I do the KDP books, TeePublic, & RedBubble... but Etsy is intriguing. Is there a fee whether you sell or not?

Prepping for that time of year, spare me your tired "dusting off Dropkick Muphys/Dlogging Molly for St. Patrick's Day" jokes and hit me with some Celtic Punk or adjacent stuff that's missing from my playlist:

"SIR..." I just clipped the entire performance of American Idiot and added subtitles to prove that there was only one edit and it was to the "mindfuck" line.

I listen to this list a lot. I hope daily I express to my kids how much they mean to me, and that I pass on some good stuff.

Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.

Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?

Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)
