When Monroe saw this statue, standing in the home of a wealthy man, she cried.

This was a period in Monroe's life when she wasn't taken seriously as an actor and artist, cast as a body rather than a person

just as Marie van Goethem is remembered as this caricature of herself

If I was a bat, I'd starve.

Echolocation is not my superpower.
My ear is it itchy, so you know what that means…

There’s some new data scientist at Apple talking with their supervisor about me right now.

“Wait, some people activate Find My iPhone more than five times a day?”

Me: “damn it!”

My iPhone: *blares Find My noise*

Me: *grabs it, scratching ear*

AfterPay is like those sexual predators that hide in the BDSM communities. They’re posing as your fin daddy but they’re actually brutal captial-sadists playing the long game.

I got banned from Tinder today. I had updated my profile to start with this sentence:

“I’m not like other girls; I’m not into cats, wine, true crime, or selling feet pics.”

…guess the detection algorithm isn’t great at complex sentences.

Meet Buffy Thunderpaw Schirr. Approach with caution: you will be licked. If she’s really excited to see you, she’ll run in little circles before she lets you pet her.

My Dad likes doomsaying-investor newsletters and I know he eagerly anticipates the arrival of the HS Dent Forecast, but whenever I see Harry Dent peering up at me from the page, I get strong Christopher Nolan flashbacks and feel like brooding over the Chicago skyline or muttering about tangerines

Finding gifts for my brother is so hard

For his birthday in 2020 I made him a brass stamp to sign his wood working projects

He told me to be creative with the logo so I drew his dog

My bro loved it and so I had the stamp made. I was delighted with the quality.

…but I don’t think he ever used it

It’s my first day on blue sky and all the trending content is hellish bickering about moderation standards. I ran a community once.

I have two pro tips:

1. Create a culture of kindness. You don’t have to worry about whether a death threat is literal if any directed rage is unacceptable

2. Therapy

Redrew an old comic from 2017, one that spawned some hateful emails from a CEO who thought I was making fun of his pizza making robot startup. I wasn’t. I was just trying to think of the dumbest thing to disrupt that I could. 🤷‍♀️
