I’M WRITING A BOOK Yes… really. I’m in the process of writing a book that skates the line of self-help and philosophy. It’s meant to help people come to terms with life’s uncertainty… not just to tolerate it, but embrace it. #philosophy #Nonfiction #Literature #SelfHelp

Because it’s cold out and I’m in the country, that’s why.

CAN YOU BELIEVE next month marks the 25th anniversary of Invader ZIM? It’s true! The show premiered March 30, 2001. Crazy to think I went straight from the womb to drawing deformed children at Nickelodeon! #invaderzim

To celebrate I whipped up this print featuring 2000 characters (DO NOT COUNT) from across the quarter-decade history of ZIM. All of these lil’ guys were originally designed by either creator Jhonen Vasquez, me, John Fountain, Warren Wucinich, or some unholy combination thereof.

For your convenience…

If you’re sincerely “impressed” with what generative #AI can “do,” then you have no appreciation for what the human mind is capable of. And I can’t respect that.

Just finished making my daughter Gypsy’s 10 year commemorative “portrait.”
