Grumpy artist, Ohio cryptid, and weird Buick enjoyer. Photographs bugs and cars, draws furry goobers, and talks super robot anime.

Gonna try and treat this as a master post. This is Grumpo, and welcome to this place. I photograph bugs and cars, draw mostly light-hearted furry stuff, and watch and talk about old mecha anime. You can peek the replies to this post to see some of what I do!
I've been giving Helldivers 2 another go and it really is the ultimate American Experience because you seesaw between "AW YEAH THIS IS GREAT" and "GOD FUCKING DAMN IT EVERYTHING IS AWFUL AND WANTS TO KILL ME AND THE GOVERNMENT IS WORTHLESS" so rapidly that you'll want to vomit.

Woo, first full art of the year. Even though I'm in a rough spot currently, with my sleep and energy improving I really want to draw more. I figure a good way to start is with some refs, and this one's been overdue!

I came back to work and greeted with THE BEST IDEA EVER

You know how calendars get thrown out at the end of the year? SO LET'S PRINT THEM WITH ADHESIVE BACKING

It's happening. I'm not stopping it because fuck 'em. It'll be hilarious.

I got pissed at work so I snuck into a rival company down the street. I accidentally interrupted a meeting and I still got like three handshakes and some marketing swag and an application.

I may never be rich, or famous, or powerful, but at least I rest easier knowing my death will never be celebrated and what little legacy I have is not "wow what a piece of shit"

Now excuse me while I take a car nap

Super wish my boss would stop coming over to my desk to make fun of police violence victims when I'm working and very clearly don't want to see it.

I'm worried the powered-up version might look too... evil? It's not an evil power-up form. I might just keep the eyes white and go with rose pupils. Sorta like when Goku and Gohan were just being normies in super saiyan form?

There's a lot of people who will mistake Takara's own Brave series as Transformers. While this is understandable at first glance, the reality is that Brave is closer to The Simpsons

I decided imma give Helldivers 2 another go and decided to clean out files to make room.

1. I found out there's a slim version (link below)
2.I found some shitpost images I made that I still like, so here.

(also it's both- you're bad with money AND capitalism is bad)

People have pondered about the "narcissistic rage" common across much of the right and, generally, it is not that.

It is them genuinely not understanding other people have complex internal mechanisms of thought and going into a rage like a dementia patient when their internal world is proven false.

I wish possums lived longer in captivity. How I wish to be clung on and lovingly slubbed upon return from the racism shop ; ,H, ,;

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.

Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

I'm genuinely dumfounded that my family is taking this better than me.

"I was made to watch a police killing and my boss said we should kill immigrants that way. I imagined you and started crying" (as I'm crying over the phone)

"Did you try telling him you don't want to see it"

RACISTS NO RACISM!

I've been trying not to think about the recent ICE murder but my boss made a point to show it and I've been trying not to cry at work. My step father, who is more of a father than my biological dad, is an immigrant and all the fear and anxiety I have for his safety just tore its way to the surface.

I can't believe I had to step up to bat and defend Unitarians today for being """"liberal""""

I'm not even Christian D:<

(btw Unitarians- you're alright in my book, but lets not make a thing of it lol)
