Today feels like a good day for a new introductory post. My name's Kevin, I'm an artist and zine-maker from the PNW.
My other hobbies include soccer, video games and depression. My future apologies for all the political skeets.

Easily one of the greatest bits of all time.
47 years ago today, dozens of turkeys met their unfortunate demise in a Cincinnati parking lot.

Good grief Charlie Brown, we are all struggling this morning. We were at the doggie ER until about 12:30 last night. Baby Girl and I both have upset stomachs, everyone is tired, Max seems to be doing well, but you can tell he's still a little doped up on sedatives. Just a real banner morning.

I've been on an X-men bullshit run lately, and we really aught to have a modern X-men fighting game.
If this was most of the roster, who would you give the last 3 spots to?
Winners get drawn in!

Lol, we've been here for hours because Max is incredibly uncooperative for every test they want to run. This fucking sucks now, j just want to go home. I'm starting to feel like we're just torturing him, all for a bunch of tests to confirm he just ate something bad.
Spending the evening in the pet ER as you do on a Monday night.
Max seems like he's doing fine, but we had a bit of a scare earlier this evening so we're just being careful.

If Nvidia had just stuck to soaps and moisturizers they probably wouldn't be mired in all this mess.

Based on my limited exposure to Chainsaw Man and DanDanDan, part of the average anime fans wish fulfillment involves being bullied by multiple women

This seems like a big oversight on DC and Marvel's behalf. Maybe one company should have published Batman/Deadpool and the other one Superman/Spider-Man.

How come no one ever wants to rank the Tremors films?

I did not enjoy Battle For Endor as much as I did Caravan of Courage (in fact I taped over it eventually). I remember even as a kid being like, "wait, Endor has witches now?"
Still, pretty cool that we were getting made for TV movies about Star Wars in 1985. I loved that shit.

Ewoks: The Battle for Endor was broadcast 40 years ago today on ABC!
Introducing the Teeks, a species that will appear in Star Tours before disappearing from screens until Skeleton Crew in 2024.
This TV movie was written and directed by Jim and Ken Wheat, future writers of Pitch Black (2000).

These matte paintings from EWOKS THE BATTLE FOR ENDOR (1985) are gorgeous relics of a truly lost art.

Looking back at my Letterboxd and apparently my favorite movie of 2026 was The Bad Guys 2.
Sure, let's go with that.

HOROSCOPE FOR CARTOONISTS
♏ Scorpio (Oct 23–Nov 21):
Your comic’s antagonist suddenly feels relatable. Uh-oh. Either you’ve grown as a writer or you’re about to justify villainy with a very long Bluesky thread.

God we need more of this. Imagine even normalizing rejection emails in creative industries (menacingly looking at the comics industry with bloodshot eyes)
Woah!
Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.
If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.
The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI
