Attempt number 3 because Bluesky ate the first one and I screwed up the last one. My name is Kevin, I make comics and write stories. I have two projects that I am working on currently:
First is Tales of Phantom Cay: a comic influenced by Eurocomics, Carl Barks, the Commedia dell'Arte, and Bone.

Sometimes you have an idea for a meme that is funny only to you.
(I know it's not really correct, Gnostics were Christian just at a different spot on the "Greek Philosophy-vs-Jewish Tradition Pipeline" than what would become Orthodox Christianity was comfortable with. But yeah.)

We all warned you people. It never stops at Transphobia.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

I love the Conservative Internet Tough Guy because their entire personality is 1) How tough they are and 2) Being terrified of everything.
that's cool, man, but have you tried the taste of a refreshing matcha latte

I spent a weekend camping in the vicinity of three pretty tame raccoons (it was on one of the Sea Islands, so no predators to bother them.) I had to get up at 3 am to move the tamper-proof box to the car because even though they can't open it, they won't stop trying. Very noisily.
"if they domesticate raccoons i'm definitely getting one" okay listen i'm being so serious right now. have you really actually thought through the consequences of inviting a smart omnivorous cat with thumbs to stay in your home for the entirety of its natural life?

I'm trying to be charitable. Lower Decks didn't look that promising when it started either. "Oh God Star Trek Rick and Morty uuuuuugh" and it turned out much better than I expected it to.
Oh good, Space Riverdale, that's what Star Trek has been missing. I was kind of hoping to get back to the cerebral exploration of moral conundrums without all the needless action, you know a return to Star Trek form? But not now that I know the dating lives of Starfleet cadets is on the table!!

I think possibly the most unhinged thing to ever happen in Fiction is one throwaway line in the appendix of Lord of the Rings where Tolkien says "Oh by the way Frodo's actual name is Maura Labingi. Nothing is named what you think it is, I have been lying to you the entire time about everything.

I think I might have accidentally created something unbelievably unsettling - at least to me - for my comic. Kind of like evil Fascist Mimes. Which feels cheap since I'm not the biggest fan of creepy clowns (despite the fact that the main villain in my story is sorta one.)
