It's good to see #MeetTheWebcomic here on Bluesky!

Currently sitting at around 130 pages, Monster Boy is a comic about the crappier sides of being a teenager, the importance of seeking solace in each other, and a bunch of neurotic weirdos.

Rushed to finish my #artvsartist2025 before the year ends in my time zone lmao

Last new year, I promised myself that I would draw for myself more often. I absolutely did not do that.

So instead, for 2026, I'm promising myself that I will just create what makes me happy. No matter what.

Everyone do your civic duty and report his gofundme
There’s a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross’s legal expenses for murdering Renee Good.

This violates GoFundMe’s Terms of Service. Everyone must report it.

A thread on how to do that 🧵

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

I had the pleasure of designing a VTuber model for @couragegel.bsky.social and @pixie.maidsofengland.co.uk! I think this is the most fun I've had working on any character commission to date. It was an absolute blast, and I can't thank Courage and Pixie enough!

My commissions are open on VGen~

Likely due to how difficult things have been recently, I'm having a nasty Pain Day. But once I'm rested, I'm determined to get back to work, and to improve.
I'm trying to find a focal point in my style that I can build on. Your input would be really helpful!

gently reminder that:

- one country's law does not extend to wherever the fuck its president wants
- bombing any country is bad regardless of government approval
- war crimes are never justifiable
- real people profit off wars
- real people die because of wars

Nik’s funeral is taking place on 30th December at 1pm GMT. For those that can’t attend, the funeral will be live-streamed. We have tried to contact as many of Nik’s friends as we could, but we may have missed some. The link is watch.obitus.com username: cuma6886 pin:962499

Trying to de-rust after barely drawing for the past month. Allowing myself to have fun sketching again, rather than focusing on making a finished product, feels great.

And Jax is a great warm-up doodle subject lol

I should have done it yesterday like I said I would, but now I'm worried about disappointing customers, and What-If-ism is a powerful thing my dudes

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Every single person who says its a waste of energy to push back to ai are playing into the hands of the powerful who do not have best of intentions. You can be loud and say AI is BS
"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

- @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit.

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!
