I received these charming direct messages on Instagram today for the sin of condemning the celebration of political violence.

For what it’s worth… I condemn all violence based on creed, race, sexuality, eye color, hair color, weight, movie tastes, etc etc etc.

I posted what I thought was a legitimate critique of the graphic design of a poster with ZERO ulterior motives, and people on social media came out of the woodwork to attack me and imply that I was a racist.

Social media can be a cesspool sometimes.

Post deleted/Lesson learned.

If you see any of your followers celebrating violence against someone just because they disagree with that person’s IDEAS…

Unfollow them.

And block them.

Now.

They’re ghouls.

It’s never too late to win the game.

Don’t give up. Keep fighting. You can get where you need to be.

I don’t care about how much a movie does or does not make at the box office.

I only care about which stories I like more than other stories.

Everything else is noise.

That relentless abusive inner dialogue is familiar to me too. Therapy helped me to understand its origin and how to fight back.

Every time depression or impostor syndrome tries to dominate you with a false narrative, fight back with simple and powerful messages to yourself.

You are enough.

The new issue of my newsletter is a bit of a raw one. If you’d like a peek inside my head, give it a read. ⬇️👊

Issues 4 and 5 of THE PATCHWORK GIRL OF OZ were the most fun I’ve ever had drawing a comic, mostly because I’ve never had a character like Scraps in my toolbox.

And even though drawing all of those patches is a nightmare, I look forward to drawing her for 15 more issues.

❤️💙💜💛💚🧡

You receive the Call To Adventure simply by being born into this world. Your life IS the adventure. How you respond to it defines your transformation.

It’s okay to mute and block aggressively on social media.

We were never meant to be subjected to the inner monologues of every person on the planet.

Curate your virtual life the same way you would your real life for a better social media experience.

I just saw a series of posts that was like an “It’s A Wonderful Life” version of myself if I went down the road of negativity and narcissism.

Thanks for the wake up call, Random Angry Guy On Social Media.

I won’t be abandoning my positive attitude anytime soon. Not worth it. 😬
I may have reached the “IDGAF” stage of life.

All my life I’ve been polite, modest, done the right things, avoided ruffling feathers, etc.

And it’s gotten me nowhere.

All the while, I’ve seen other people behave terribly and advance like they’re strapped to rockets.

A quick Son Goku piece from last year, drawn the day that Akira Toriyama passed.

It kinda reflects my mood today. 😬

Drawn and colored in Procreate.

Dear iTunes Movies graphics department…

The Freedom Tower didn’t exist in 1982. The skyline of Manhattan looked a little bit different back then.
