Happy March 32nd

@freaksugar.bsky.social spoke with writer @fredvanlente.bsky.social about his and artist @ryandunlavey.bsky.social’s Kickstarter for Action Philosophers: Modernity Bites, going on now! www.freaksugar.com/interview-fr...

Everything I know about Power Rangers™: -Teenagers With Attitude® -They,um…fight monsters…from…the moon? -🎶Go Go Rower Pangers🎶 -The Black and Yellow rangers were played by a black actor and an asian actress because of course they were. In conclusion please hire me to draw a variant cover. Thanks.

From 2012 - the most fun book signing I ever did. Packed crowd, Edgar Oliver (!) read from our book, I hand-cut dozens of cartoon flowers out of foam core (ow), Amanda provided free snacks and drinks and we signed a crap-ton of books. I should have worn a suit! www.four-tines.com/2012/09/book...

Today's the day! Er, Day 1 of 2 anyhow. Colonoscopy prep started at 9am and now it's time for comics about the colonoscopy prep! Please enjoy this very special Colonoscopy edition of Hourly Comics Day.

Happy to share that if a publication is looking for someone who will turn in writing that in no way, shape or form uses or touches AI.... I'm your gal.

whew glad I changed my interaction settings last week

having your book (or comic) turned into a movie or tv show doesn't make you rich

Looks like this years C2E2 was another winner! Wish I could have made it this year (family commitments). I love the city of Chicago and I love the con too. I went 2023, 2024 and 2025 and it was always a highlight of the year - one of the best COMIC-cons around. I'll be back in 2027 for sure!

I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

NEW ART! I illustrated this year's poster for @fanfairenyc.bsky.social! The theme was "curiosity" and everyone likes cute stuff so I just ran with that. Really happy with how the coloring came out on this one!

🚀 Get ready to blast off into a universe of creativity at Fanfairenyc 2026! 🌟 Join us at the High School of Art & Design on April 25–26 for a pop culture celebration—featuring guest speakers, artist alley, cosplay contests, gaming, and more! 👾🎨 credit Ryan Dunlavey #fanfairenyc2026 #fanfairenyc

Here you go

Today, all over the nation: are you pissed off? Are you scared? Are you grief stricken over the inhumanity of those in power? Are you angry about billionaires and corporations going all-in on making this planet uninhabitable except as a fascist playground? SHOW UP: www.nokings.org

Wanted to do a quick and fun little commission sheet inspired by ArtistAlly.Fund 's Monthly Art Challenge on Instagram! Like my post says, I offer Inked art and Comics! More details can be found in my Ko-Fi where you can order my commissions~ #artchallenge #dtiyschallenge #artcontest #commission

Action Philosopher #8: BARUCH SPINOZA! actionphilosophers.com/post/7503632...

i love when a literary award’s category breakdown is like: fiction, non-fiction, sci-fi, horror, middle grade, children’s, and then just “comics.” lol

You can rep your love of wisdom with this set of 3 Action Philosophers patches, available for purchase to all backers who pledge a reward tier in the Kickstarter for @fredvanlente.bsky.social & @ryandunlavey.bsky.social’s Action Philosophers: Modernity Bites! www.kickstarter.com/projects/roc...

Keeping an eye on the book banners, I noticed that somehow their fear-stoking over zines of late has been effective in ways other book targeting has not. It broke containment and grifters now talk about zones like they're improvised explosive devices. Freak out a creep. Make a zine.

Hey I'm not tabling at MoCCA this year but I will be wandering around on Saturday afternoon and I will have Action Philosophers bookmarks with me so if you see me and want one just ask. (FYI I look like this:)

oh it's REALLY happening now lmaoooooo

You should read the whole thread but just to echo what Naomi says: 1. The submission process is easy (and I usually HATE dealing with paperwork) 2. It's real money! Get your share!!

You’ll never have to be without the thoughts of your favorite philosophers when you preorder a digital version of @fredvanlente.bsky.social & @ryandunlavey.bsky.social's Action Philosophers: Modernity Bites, now on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/roc...

SIGMUND FREUD! Definitely problematic...but Western mental health treatments before he showed up were pretty rough, particularly for women. An Action Philosophers story by me @ryandunlavey.bsky.social @adamguzowski.bsky.social that's in our new volume, MODERNITY BITES! 1/2

I’ve updated my shop w/ the very last copies of some out-of-print titles: SWALLOW ME WHOLE ANY EMPIRE YOU DON’T SAY OMNIBOX of all 3 above books & the new MARCH omnibus. If you’re missing any of those older books, now’s your chance— thanks! All signed & sketched. www.seemybrotherdance.org/shop

Here’s a handy little instructional video that helped me navigate clients youtu.be/8L4HHPTiZN8?...

The ACTION PHILOSOPHERS: MODERNITY BITES Kickstarter is now 300% funded! Stretch goals start unlocking when we hit 400%! There's LOTS of add-ons we included to help reach our goals: patches, slipcases, commissions and even original art from the book itself! www.kickstarter.com/projects/roc...

What Alex says is 100% true but freelancers also need to hold their clients to these same standards, and not be afraid to turn down work from those who that can't meet them.

I'm between freelance payments and could use a little bit of extra cash for this month's expenses - HEY LOOK, I've got ebay auctions you can get RIGHT NOW: www.ebay.com/usr/ryandunl...

partner having a job w/ full medical benefits + rent stabilized apartment + not owning a car + creative budget balancing + minimum 6 hours sleep daily + a healthy diet and work schedule + time off for travel/leisure + zero tolerance for general bullshit = SUCCESS (for now)
