www.patreon.com/posts/147121... Nutcracker Season left me in a Candy Goth mood. Treats every day of the Twelve Days of Christmas, plus free webcomics for everyone! And sheet ghosts. Sheet ghosts are good.

Yes, by all means, turn Venezuela into the 51st state. It's only got a population of 31 million who will all vote Democrat and drag the party far to the left (or what the rest of the world considers the center). Yes, do that. Brilliant move, Mr. President!

Margo Martindale is wild good in justified and then you see her in the Americans and she’s just operating on a whole other level

This will further damage our reputation – already hurt by Trump’s policies around the world – and only isolate us in a time when we need our friends and allies more than ever.

well. I am going to try to sleep and then yell at a bunch of people in the morning and after that I am going to host a party for my friends. I will not lose the part of me that wants to bring joy and ease

It's the... ninth day of Christmas?? so here are more treats for my patrons. And free webcomics for everyone! www.patreon.com/posts/whats-...

Thank you! The prepress is courtesy of @plasticfarm.bsky.social and the printing is keness.com. The rest is all me, and damn, it’s nice to be able to say that!

Oh! That’s a great one!

Republicans did this. We must keep reminding people of that.

J C Leyendecker: the gay man who gave America a baby. ❤️ www.illustratedgallery.com/2024/01/j-c-...

As New Year’s films go, THE HOLDOVERS is pretty good. Um… THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE is set at NYE, so there’s that, I guess.

The New Year is lurking somewhere out over the Atlantic right now, that’s good enough for me.

Great choice! bsky.app/profile/hist...

The Coens’ visual storytelling is always brilliant, but when they have the license of farce, it’s incredibly funny stuff. Just the scene when Norville Barnes’s Big Idea goes from development to hitting it big…!

It’s the funniest use of THE SABER DANCE of any of the many movie soundtracks that have used it! And then that crazy ending!

You… a Muncie girl!

Tonight’s viewing: THE WIZARD OF OZ and, as always, THE HUDSUCKER PROXY. There aren’t many New Year’s themed movies. What few there are, PROXY is my favorite.

This posted a lot later in the day than I meant it to, but what the hell-- happy new year! www.patreon.com/posts/christ...

Treats for my patrons, and free-to-read webcomics! Check 'em out here, I am giving this my all. www.patreon.com/c/carlaspeed...

I watched Out of the Past for the first time last night and I'm thinking that it's time this whole colour fad movies have been going through ended. 1/3

Not only a perfect denouement, it was the end of an era. Thirty years ago today, this strip was published.

It’s much, much easier to write prose. Sure, if you compare books, comics will be thinner than most novels. And they’ll read quicker, too, probably. But the sheer amount of work that goes into them is unholy so please don’t go telling the artists “oh I read your book in 20 minutes”

I don’t wanna know I spent four years working on this book Please take your time and look at the pretty pictures And if it really took you 20 minutes? I dunno man, read it again

Another step towards suspending the midterm elections because “wartime president”

I saw Ray Bradbury come onto the show floor at San Diego Comic-Con, buf he was in a wheelchair and on oxygen. He had an attendant. He seemed so frail. I knew he loved that show, and I didn’t want to slow him down. I just grinned at him like something out of a dog food commercial as he passed by.

My sister's latest book is really, really good. Even if I don't know you, I know you would love it. Among Ghosts by Rachel Hartman.

I do still have 50 copies of this comic. I'm not gonna reprint it in this form-- it's signed and numbered. It will eventually be a TPB, but I'm taking my time on this one. If you want to hold this book, flip its pages, enjoy its delectable solid black, snap this up! www.patreon.com/posts/shop-i...

Free to read for all today, the first three pages of a new chapter! SETTLERS OF THE STORM WORLDS part 2, THE WASTE LAND. The first chapter is already free to read, and folks with as little as a buck to spend on me get an additional three pages today. www.patreon.com/posts/settle...

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

More sweet treats for my patrons! People make all kinds of crazy wonderful things out of gingerbread nowadays, gotta love that. This and lots of free-to-read webcomics! www.patreon.com/posts/proper...

I posted a not fun update to my GoFundMe. I fell and broke my back. I'm almost certainly paralyzed for life. I'll start a new GoFundMe when I know more what my life will look like in the future, but until then donations will help with lost income and my mom to pay for gas and VERY expensive parking.

I used to think this was beautiful. Now it terrifies me.

If you can make friends with ballpoint, you can make friends with nearly any tool. It’s a great exercise.

Attorneys General in 20 blue states are challenging the Trump administration's attempts to unilaterally end gender affirming care for youth through executive decree. That and two other court cases show that the fight for trans rights is just getting started.

Marx had many things to say about this, but it boils down to this: pushing AI onto the general populace is intentional, the GOAL is alienation - to unhook that link in your brains between labour and product. It's why fast fashion is made where you can't see it.

"The makers of AI aren’t damned by their failures, they’re damned by their goals. Their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude. Their dream is to invent new forms of life to enslave."

On the third day of Christmas, my patrons get from meeee... another trio of illustrations that range from creepy and atmospheric to sweetly sentimental, like all good forays into the TWILIGHT ZONE. Find 'em here, along with lots of FREE WEBCOMICS. www.patreon.com/posts/proper...

Sure, just maybe don’t get THAT one, it’s probably just printed, not a real sweater.

At least it gives me time to shop for something actually knitted, not printed. Pity NASA itself isn’t making them.

Yeah! 🤷🏼‍♀️ and Jamie Campbell Bower is so charming in spite of everything that I really wish the Vecna biz didn’t have to be spot-welded on. The threat is… just no longer palpable. It’s gone all PINKY AND THE BRAIN.

With her candy-striper Molly Ringwald especially!

I do like the long-overdue scenes between Robyn and Will. I like the WRINKLE IN TIME references, unexplored as they are. I like Henry as a villain more than Vecna, if that makes sense. The rest is just so Bob Loblaw.

The search continues. Or, shall I say, the exploration?
