If this had happened in the first 50 years of my life, I would have been a goner.

Woke up to the conspiracy theory regions of my brain getting stimulated.

Work in progress.

Everything Trump involves himself in, immediately turns to shit.

Here's some vintage horror fan art. It's the "non-human creature" from Brides of Blood after he's ripped asunder a lovely Filipina virgin. It's part of the Fear in the Philippines box set from @severinfilms.bsky.social

God help us all. “Seven AI companies currently account for more than a third of the stock market, and they endlessly pass around the same $100 billion IOU.”

So one well timed lightning strike could end this national nightmare?

I I designed a Kurdles coloring page for the kids to enjoy during breakfast at the Springhill Suites hotel in Prescott, AZ. I tried to capture the region. Anyone else want a location specific Kurdles coloring page for their business?

Traffic will clear in Los Angeles and never return, the Angels will have a winning season, dodos will walk the Earth once again...

Is it too soon to talk about the Trump Curse?

Purchased in the Philippines in the mid-70's when my dad was stationed at Clark AFB, these unauthorized plywood and felt decorations hung in my room for much of my childhood. I thought most were long gone, but I rediscovered them in a box at my mom's place.

Here I am, casually enjoying a comic on a Friday night.

Tried to quickly get something up on Satrapi's passing.

Post a poster you used to have in your room, apartment, or house

I know that when I drink I can go on, at length, about my Cub Scout achievements, but I HAVE THE RECEIPTS.

I don’t think anti-vaccination goes far enough and I’m now solidly anti-sanitation. We’re never going to toughen up as a species unless we start dumping turds in the streets again.

Today is Bandcamp Friday when Bandcamp doesn't take a cut and passes on the money to the bands and their labels. I picked up the premier album by Tangients that came out today for just 7 bucks. If you like fuzzy guitar with some Elizabeth Fraser sounding vocals floating over the top, check them out.

I think my greatest musical guilty pleasure is the disco version of the Moonraker theme song:

Somehow I completely forgot to post that I have a new story out @pictura.bsky.social that was created in the wonderful @smokelong.bsky.social workshop. This is what having kids with a looming #schoolstrike does to my brain. picturajournal.com/issue-six/ge... #flashfiction #writesky

Perhaps it’s time for pollsters to ask if Trump should be impeached, @elliotmoris.bsky.social ? I’d be curious to see how many Republicans are on board and if the number is growing.

I love the low stakes of old Superman comics

When I'm not drawing backgrounds on Beavis & Butthead or spending time with my kids, I've been known to draw comics. #comics #kidcomics #kurdles #animation

Impeach him and send him to The Hague.

I usually wait until Severin's annual sale to pick up box sets, but I don't know if I can wait this time.

Since Trump has been kind enough to announce how he’s going to steal the midterms, perhaps @schumer.senate.gov can prohibit ICE and Border Patrol within 500 ft of a polling place a condition of DHS funding.

From the reviews I'm seeing, I think its safe to say that Brett Ratner is no Leni Riefenstahl.

Allow me to hook you up with a ready-to-go meme just for BlueSky. It’s from Global Force and drawn by Bill Koch and J. Adam Walters.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

One year down.

I really want to skip to the end of the book and see what becomes of Steven Miller 4-5 years from now.

What are the odds that the White House will be publishing photos of unrest in Iran and saying it’s Minneapolis within a few days?

MEANWHILE… AT FOX NEWS:

Have a Stinky Christmas!

Here’s an article @marisakabas.bsky.social wrote on Kelvin while we were fighting his deportation. We failed and he’s been in CECOT ever since. We’ve heard nothing from him. If anyone knows of any organization or individuals that can help, please let me know. I’ve even written the Pope.

With CECOT being in the news, I want to repost this article my wife wrote about our adopted kids' birth father. He finished a prison sentence and was deported to El Salvador and landed in CECOT. If anyone can help with this, please contact me. We're feeling pretty helpless.

I SO wish there hadn't been a reason for me write this: www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

James Kochalka has written the Anthem of the Resistance.

I love this.

The only cartoonist who comes close to drawing better forearms that Gil Kane is E.C. Segar.

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

It’s been my lifelong dream to be a full-time comic artist, but I probably make a few bucks an hour from it. I’m miles from even getting minimum wage. So I do it when I can, a slow, but steady trickle. I wish things were different.

The Blackhawks don’t swing.

In a post completely free of self-pity, Cathy Malkasian says she’s leaving comics because of poor sales. This is something I can certainly relate to. In Cathy’s case, it kills me that someone this good can’t find an audience. I wish the world was a better place.

Let’s get the word out.

The cherry on top is JD Vance’s brother losing in Cincinnati with a Charles Manson-like 20% of the vote in a two person race.

I'll be speaking with my good friend Cathy Malkasian at Skylight Books in Los Angeles on Friday night about her great new book Shadows of the Sea. Come on out and help spread the word.
