kinda nice to look back on my first official piece of Battletech art.

All things considered, still very happy with it.

2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.

Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

Fun fact: I drew this like two years ago and painted the octopus purple. But I thought purple looked corny so I painted over him teal. But then I realized he was the color of Squidward Tentacles and I got mad and stopped and forgot about this piece until now.

Good lord, if something about someone, their words or deeds or character or name or associations or bad behavior or whatever else is worth making fun of, that doesn't mean their physical appearance is suddenly open season for the worst possible thing you can think of to say

I guess this can be fully revealed now. I got to work with one of my favorite Battletech authors to bring visuals to his serialized story. Strap on your riding gear and go on an adventure with cat-riding mouse knight as he Conans his way through sorcerers and eldritch demons.

Huh it turns out cranberry sauce isn’t a portmanteau of Crayons and Berries but grandma isn’t complaining, in fact there’s no noise coming from grandma at all!
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.

Everyone wanting to write AND draw their own graphic novel needs to look at this, and plan your finances/side-gigs accordingly.

The advance money reeeeally doesn't go as far as you think it does.
Here’s some math courtesy of Nate Powell to keep in mind when signing that graphic novel deal. #comics

I think it’s time to put this one back out into the ether, friends

Come and learn about how the tropes undergirding anti-Jewish hatred and conspiracy theories as they exist today came to be…

Gotta get the history to know where the tropes live in the discourse today.

Got an update here. Like I posted earlier, I got some bad news today. It's nothing I want to discuss yet, but I've got more appointments coming up to work this out and find a path forward. I do still need financial help, so here's my links. Thank you.
