So this happened in Oslo yesterday. Four articulated buses got stuck in a roundabout.

3. cheese & confusion
4. moss & chaos

As the year comes to an end, I'm reposting some of the comics I made this year, including this ridiculous thing.

As my time here comes to a close, I keep reflecting on all the asinine bullshit I put up with on a daily basis, and I don't particularly relish the idea of learning entirely new asinine bullshit.

Christmas dinner in the Grey Duck household is snow crab legs.
it fascinates me how most everyone in the U.S. does turkey for Thanksgiving, but we are all over the map as to what we eat for Christmas (as is proper for a hugely diverse nation).

I come from a Christmas prime rib roast family, myself.
I also use the bacon method. Although turkey is Christmas dinner where I come from.

This coming Wednesday marks 13 years with my employer. It is also exactly one week before my last day. The big scary thing I've been alluding to for the last month is a new job with a new company. I am extremely grateful that I had the chance to do this on my own terms, rather than a RIF but... 1/5

It is officially the time of year where I struggle to get out of bed because the air outside my blanket haven is chilly and I don't want to be mildly uncomfortable

We shouldn't have extended the internet to everyone. It should only be available to nerds and weirdos who either build up an immunity to Online Madness or remain naturally confined to forums where their Online Madness can't reach the average citizen.

Apparently a yellow jacket queen decided my sewing room was a great place to hibernate. She was wrong.

always remember: Terry Pratchett said trans rights

this book was written in 1996 by a 48 year old British man and no cis person in 2025 has a single goddamn excuse to behave differently

and you can buy gift copies!!

if you don’t specify a recipient email for each gift copy, you essentially have them on file and can send the gift recipient a retrieval code when you do eventually give it as a gift

can’t believe we still need to say that just because trump said “quiet, piggy” it is not okay to repeat it in his direction. how do people still not understand that it is not okay to show that you think fatphobia is okay as long as it’s directed at someone you don’t like/think is a bad person!
