I’m happy to report all three of them made it safe and sound. Only a stray speck of pollen scratched Harrison’s leaves, but he’s hanging in there.

Walking to my friend @leiladelduca.bsky.social ‘s to give her my sourdough starter and Harrison (my pothos plant), in scary war-torn Portland. I hope I make it in one piece, wish me luck! #portland #fightfascism

good week for comics on youtube.
The @helioscopepdx.bsky.social youtube channel posted a 30m documentary (with music, lower-thirds, and everything!!) about @stevelieberart.bsky.social & Matt Fraction's really remarkable Jimmy Olsen comic.
The studio looks beautiful.
