Hey Brands, I don’t give a shit about your new AI “feature” and in fact it makes me dislike you and want to cancel my subscription.

Instead tell me what you are doing to give back to the community and help the environment. This is the only way you will get me to care about you.

New years
Two faces smiling at each other, each wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 1980. The same faces, still smiling but now wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 1990. The face on the left is now gone, only the face on the right remains. Its smile is gone and its expressions looks a little sad. It is wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 2000. The face is still alone. Expression still sad. It now has a few wrinkles by its mouth. It is wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 2010. The face is still alone. Expression still sad. It now has a few more wrinkles next to its eyes. It is wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 2020. The face is still alone. Expression still sad. It has even more wrinkles. Some under its eyes, another by its mouth. It is wearing New Year’s Eve glasses for the year 2030. In place of the face, there is now just a grave alone on a small hill. Panning over, it is revealed the grave is not alone after all, but right next to another identical grave. Zooming out reveals the two graves alone on a small patch of grass. Above them float two ghosts. They are holding hands and smiling.

*Green Hill Zone theme intensifies*
Title panel “Sonic at Sonic” that consists of “Sonic” in the style of the Sonic the Hedgehog logo, the @ symbol, and “Sonic” in the style of the Sonic fast food chain logo. Sonic, looking a little tired, is sitting at a table and speaking into a microphone, “Hi welcome to Sonic may I plz take your order” A grinning Dr. Robotnik is sitting in a car at the drive thru speaker, “Hello! Yes, may I have a large order of onion RINGS?” Close up of Sonic looking very sad. Tears are welling up in his eyes and some mucus is starting to drip from his nose. Sonic is now shoveling a large amount of onion rings into a container. A person silhouetted against some bright light yells, “SONIC LOOK OUT!” Sonic, with a worried expression on his face, is holding the onion rings and awkwardly trying to avoid hitting a Moto Bug. The screen from the video game when Sonic gets hit and the rings fly everywhere only this time the rings are the onion rings.

Sometimes just being is enough
Three different colored blobs float together in a group. The blue blob has a very sad expression and says, “I’m sad”. The yellow blob has a very happy expression and says, “I’m happy”. The green blob has a blank expression and says, “I’m”.

Many years ago back in the Tumblr days I had this idea to start a blog called Megafest which would have been a massive poster for an event that had all sorts of ridiculous activities and each post would add on to the bottom of it and it would essentially never end.

If you have 13 albums that all came out in 2025 you are instantly getting blocked

It’s funny how AI people can’t even practice some small level of restraint

Push back
Two silly people standing next to each other. Person one pushes person two. Person two has fallen over and is sitting on the ground. Person two pushes person one back. Person one has now fallen over and is sitting on the ground, looking a bit sad. Close up of person one’s face, this time looking very very sad, with tears welling up in their eyes.

I continue to be blown away. So honored that my work has affected so many others ❤️
It's been over 33 years since I lost my dad to cancer. I was 12. This so wonderfully captures what I felt then, and how I still continue to process goodbyes. I'd never realized that was what I was doing until I read this. You have given me so much peace and brought an understanding I didn't even realize I was missing. This is maybe the most comforting thing I've ever seen. Thank you.

I’m absolutely blown away by the response to my last comic. I made it to help me process my mom’s death but never imagined it would touch so many others.

The Last Goodbye
Hand holding a photo of four figures standing close together. Text reads, “You died on a Tuesday night”. A large white cloud in a blue sky. Text reads, “But I started saying goodbye long before then” and “Sometimes goodbyes take time”. Figure holding a phone up to their ear. Text reads, “The first goodbye was when you called to tell me they found a tumor” and “I tried to hold back my tears and stay positive but somehow I knew”. Two figures hugging. One is smaller and skinnier than the other. Text reads, “The next goodbye was when I noticed how skinny you were” and “It had only been a few weeks since I’d seen you and the change was surprising”. A hospital. Text reads, “The next goodbye was when you had a stroke” and “I met you at the hospital and we didn’t know how much time was left”. Three figures standing at the end of a bed, watching over another figure lying there. Text reads, “The next goodbye was spread out over a week as we took care of you and waited” and “I’m so grateful we had a little more time to talk, you were still so happy and making jokes”. The figure in bed but closer now. Text reads, “The next goodbye was when you stopped breathing” and “I didn’t cry this time because the other goodbyes helped”. Handing holding a photo of four figures standing close together. Text reads, “The next goodbye was when I wrote this” and “It felt important to share you with the world”. Zoom out to see a figure holding the photo. Text reads, “I don’t think there will ever be a last goodbye” and “From time to time I’ll find new ways”. Three figures standing together looking at the photo. Text reads, “Sometimes goodbyes take time”.

Happy belated Nov 1 guys
A jolly looking Santa Claus says, “Mary Christmas”. A person asleep on a table has “ZZZZ” emanating from them. A silhouette of Santa, now furious, yells, “MARY, CHRISTMAS!!!” The person asleep on the table now springs awake and mumbles, “wha”. She has a name tag that reads, “Mary”. Her eyes grow wide as she notices something. There is a desk calendar showing the day to be Nov 1. Mary slams down on a large button on some sort of device which activates a light for “Christmas” with the dates “Nov 1 – Jan 1”. To the left there is another button under a label for “Hanukkah” with the dates “Nov 28 – Dec 6” and to the right there is a button for “Kwanzaa” with the dates “Dec 26 – Jan 1”. An alarm starts blaring “AHOOGA AHOOGA” as a silhouette of Mary stands in surprise. Mary, now looking terrified, says, “It has begun”. We jump to a person sitting quietly at a table holding a cup of coffee and smiling. There is a dark amorphous blob far behind them. The person is still sitting quietly but the blob is closer now. The blob is now directly behind the person and we can see that it is comprised of five nondescript ominous figures. The person, now noticing something is there, turns around with a surprised look on their face. The person cowers in terror as they see the figures. Each one has different text on their torso. One reads, “The Wham Song”. Another, “The Mariah Carey Song”. Still another, “The Trans-Siberian Orchestra One”, followed by “The Paul McCartney Song”, and finally “The One That Feels A Lot Like Sexual Misconduct”.

There he is
Sketchy drawing of a house. Text in messy lettering reads, “There once was a house”. There is now a small person standing next to the house with his arm raised. Text reads, “And inside lived a man”. The small person now has a question mark above his head. Text reads, “Wait, no that’s not him”. A huge creature the size of the entire house has now lifted the roof and reaches out toward the small person. Text reads, “Ah… there he is”.

Breakfast & Lunch
Car drives up to what looks like a diner or restaurant. Person walks up to door and we see that name of the restaurant is “Breakfast & Lunch”. Person walks in. Sign reads, “Please seat yourself”. Person sits down at a booth and sees a menu on table. Person opens menu to read two meal options. Under a Breakfast heading there is “Meat Omlet” and under a Lunch heading there is “Meat Sanwich”. The person lowers menu to see a large man wearing nothing but a greasy apron standing in the shadows. The person says, “Oh, hello there… Um… I guess I’ll have the meat omelet please.” The large man replies, “No eggs.” The person then says, “Uh, okay… I’ll have the meat sandwich then?” The man replies, “No meat.” The person says, “Hmm… okay, well I guess I’ll just go someplace el—” The man interrupts, “Can’t leave.” The man continues, “Door’s locked.” The person stares open mouthed at the man.
