“To call murderers monsters is unfair to monsters”
A drawing borne of grief, sadness, and fear.

Skeeting into the void.
But I’m in Portugal right now and must go back very soon.
Wondering what and why. I’m getting news in fits and starts and questions from people here and it’s all unbelievable.
It’s all so damn cruel.

Realized this morning that I hadn’t drawn at all so far this year, and this little snake-ghost cat was in my dreams last night, so here we are.
Here’s to a 2026 that’s, at the very least, different.

I predict 2026 will be the stupidest year in US history. Not stupidest thus far. Like after this year there will never be a year this stupid again.

2026 is a year to ORGANIZE, and we’ve got a few Slingshot planners left to help do it.
While supplies last, you can save 10% on these radical planners.
Plus most everything else is 10% off, AND all hardbacks are 20% off through Wednesday, December 31!

be kind.
stay weird.
organize.

We need to hear some wins right now.
Please share victories for collective action, cooperation, etc.
Human artists doing great things on a small scale, communities finding their unhoused members homes, local foodways, pedestrian & bike friendly projects, strange guerrilla art, moments of joy.

I’ve been rewatching the Coen Bros filmography this month and while drawing a Barton Fink illustration, it struck me how much their films feel like Far Side cartoons: funny, strange, clever, yet frequently inscrutable. Anyway here’s a thread!

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

“System Installation (v1.0)”
Acrylic on 3.5” floppy

(Wanna get that gesso smoother. Or figure something else out, but the raw plastic does NOT like acrylic)

This little kobold has been hanging around in my brain for a couple days, so I thought I’d let them out.
