Making a 🧵 to help people get context on Hiveworks: The Hiveworks Guild statement from Cartoonist Co-op. Make sure to check the "How You Can Help" tab

Coming out of socmed hibernation to draw attention to this. If you have ever read and enjoyed a HW comic or cared about one of their creators, this is an important one.

Long time no see everyone! Back in September, I took a hiatus from almost all social media to try and improve my mental health. And uh…it worked super well!!! It worked so well I’m going to keep doing it!!!

I swear I'm going to post thoughts about SPX/my SPX haul soon, I've just been busy being offline this past week lol

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In this update: Aster sees an old man and is so shocked by his hideous face that she almost falls down the stairs (again) asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In today’s update: target spotted asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

When I think about Lil Nas X right now I remember how the best comedians and trolls are often the most depressed people. I’m sorry that was true for him as well.

They're making an example out of him because he spent the last 4+ years mocking the government and being a successful gay Black man in America

Been paying some visits to the local juvenile double crested cormorant recently…derpiest lil guy I’ve ever seen

Choose your online engagement.

I LOVE Lil Nas X’s music and joyful queerness, and he’s really inspired me as an artist and person. His mental health crisis and subsequent arrest/hospitalization is so devastating to read about. I’m glad he’s not dead and is hopefully getting the help he needs.

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In today’s update: everything in this is a spoiler you’re just going to have to read it asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

Damn this is some bullshit…

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In this update: the kids investigate their dad’s biggest crash out to date asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

Left my feedback and I encourage y’all to do the same!

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

…

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated…belatedly! In today’s update: you guys forgot to turn the attic lights off… asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

For those unaware, this is in regards to Visa/MasterCard forcing itch./io and Steam to drop adult content from their platforms bc of conservative groups (and is affecting unrelated content as well). I called my credit card holder today abt this and filed an incident report. Let’s do our part!

I went to a local convention this weekend and had a great time! Some highlights include: -Meeting Beverly Crusher’s actress IRL -Scarily accurate cosplay of King Jaffe from Coming to America -Drag Queen Miku -Scarily accurate Black Jinx cosplay+to-scale Fishbones -Best pho I’ve had in years

Just donated and you can too

“One in three Gazans goes multiple days without eating, the World Food Programme said this week. Malnourished mothers can no longer produce milk to breastfeed their children, the injured are unable to heal and hospitals have run out of nutritional supplements to treat gaunt babies.”

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In today’s update: time to clean up, company’s coming over asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

Oh..

Can’t have shit in Detroit!!

I do like giving opinions!

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In today’s update: Aster could have been a theater kid in another life. Well, if she didn’t have anxiety lol asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

I’m curious! Also this week has sucked so I could use a win

Every person I know in my field (STEM) that’s looking for a job (including myself) is STRUGGLING right now. It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen, even during COVID.

Aster and the Fire #AATF has updated! In today’s update: kids argue over the quality of a banned book asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #spiderforest #webcomics

Woke up from a nap to a round of severe thunderstorms and guess who’s under yet ANOTHER flash flood warning lmao

I went to the beauty supply earlier this week and I have discovered my new favorite genre of photo

I’d like to give a massive shoutout to Brian at @toocheke.com for helping me transition the #AATF webcomic site over to Toocheke after my previous configuration finally broke when WordPress updated. He was extremely professional, patient, and thorough and I’ll be forever grateful for his help!

I’ve liked my time on Bluesky so far but this is ridiculous. How can the mod team on here: 1) have less transparency than Twitter moderation 2) ban you over something that 12 year olds say in COD chats on the regular

Hm. The streets around my apartment complex have completely flooded and there are search and rescue teams being deployed. Also the power is out. This is fine

I got an ad for metal pill boxes on Instagram recently (awfully convenient as I’m looking to buy a new pill box). I just want to know one thing… …WHY ARE THEY OVER 100 US DOLLARS????????????

Aster and the Fire Chapter 3 has begun! Starting off with a flashback, once again. In today’s update: welcome to the secret library. asterandthefire.com/comic/prolog... #AATF #spiderforest #webcomics

Silver Sprocket, under owner Avi Ehrlich, made a name for itself as an artist-friendly comics publisher. Now it finds itself $300,000 in debt, embroiled in disputes, and teetering toward an uncertain future. What went wrong? A new report at @comicsjournal.bsky.social. www.tcj.com/high-debts-h...

Just a small update to show that I have not forgotten about #AATF: behold, the power of backgrounds!!! I’m hoping to start up dating this week or next! See you then! I’m so excited :D

Happy Pride from some of the #AATF cast :)
