Done enough

@cartooncrossroads.bsky.social ! I will be in the great city of Columbus THIS VERY WEEKEND, sweating and mumbling and selling dense, depressing comics! I will also be doing a live reading this Thursday with DISTRACTOR, so roll through, Midwest friends

I want to draw my comic play Sekiro and hold my cats upside down and today allows for none of those

My understanding is that this is what sells comics

I like lifting weights to the point of feeling like I could shit my pants because Victory is most thrilling when it’s separated from defeat by the thinnest of margins

The eagles are bad + deserve scorn but without them we might not have gotten this Glenn Frey solo masterpiece, quintessentially American in its ability to make me homesick for a place I’ve never been, so it’s a great object lesson in taking the rough with the smooth open.spotify.com/track/0b8eSs...

Upstate 5 features fucking and you bet your bippy it’s just as loaded craven and bleak as you’ve come to expect from my work nothing to unravel in my own life there

conservatives are increasingly going to deal with issues because they treat a man being murdered in broad daylight and a beloved character being recast with a black actor as the exact same level of severity. everything is a crisis and the only acceptable response is to "crush" the enemy

Happy 9/11 here’s one of the dumbest things that’s ever happened in comics, stupid regardless of which angle you view it from

Charlie Kirk’s dumb ass said TONS of stuff that could easily be applied to the situation around his death and the right wing reaction to it because everyone over there has built an insurmountable immunity to experiencing hypocrisy

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Great time to remind everyone that the internet is still some form of public record and the likes are not worth the feds knocking on your door

I wish I could be at RCCC this weekend but if YOU’RE going, go see the following buds (and others I’ll either forget or not know the handles for) @stevelieberart.bsky.social @jeffparker.bsky.social @johnburkett.bsky.social @emmetthgraham.bsky.social @cattifer.bsky.social @rondanchan.bsky.social

Cartoon ass country

Reinhardt learns some useful English

I am running slower miles and fewer of them than i was before I injured myself last November but ten months in this five mile round trip to and from the gym did not hurt so I am calling this by its proper name, Victory

Probably won’t happen but sure would be cool if it did

Hey look, it's @cattifer.bsky.social and me being dorks at @helioscopepdx.bsky.social! Filmed by @leiladelduca.bsky.social youtube.com/shorts/txjCB...

Long story short is quite possibly the best new series I’ve seen in a good long while

Sold all but seven Upstate books, floating world both the rest Sold thirty not-sonic comics Comix Thing fucking rules, thank you all so much for rolling through!

BRAND SPANKING NEW TO COMIX THING BABY’S FIRST RISO COME AND GET IT

First horror game that really scared me is easy: OG polygonal slow-ass resident evil. Never owned it, played it at a friend’s place, and it scared the living shit out of me First game of full existential, personal terror and anguish: Planescape Torment, and it’s not even close

Beat the heat at the mall today from 12-6 with comics, zines, almost certainly some oversized pants- the 1900s have returned and they’re at COMIX THING from 12-6!

Hey hey I’m not trans and I’ll say JL Rowling fucking sucks

Some very EXCITING STUFF coming at COMIX THING this Saturday! 12-6! Lloyd center! Portland Oregon!

wondering if the social fabric is irreparably damaged and society is crumbling beyond saving and the arts are a complete waste of my life or if it's just cloudy for the second day in a row

Shit rips

There is no one better at advertising than me

COMIX THING IS THIS WEEKEND I’m so stoked to have a show like this in Portland I’m not taking commissions but whoever the first person to give me fifty dollars is, I’ll give you a drawing of cyclops with his cock out which has the same problem as his eyes Ruby quartz jockstrap against his thigh

My answer to that question that comes up every once in a while Is COME AND SEE with everyone but the child played by a muppet

One of the best things about deleting Twitter is no longer mistaking Twitter for the world

"Why did people dress better in the past?" Because people were mean to you if you didn't dress up! That is always the answer to that question! "Why are the lawns so nice in this neighborhood?" People there are mean to those with messy lawns! Social stigma is the tradeoff! Always!

Some genius on Reddit perfectly summarized Weapons

I saw the fantastic four movie a few weeks ago,and, while it was fine I haven’t really thought about it at all since then. Nothing memorable, other than the frustration of the staccato whoopie cushion blat that was the ending. It was a safe movie. Feels like Marvel has removed all peaks and valleys

I have written a new blog entry for the first time in months so come read about absolute Martian manhunter and weapons open.substack.com/pub/stephenp...

I fucked up working on some files and whoops this whips

My AI wife and I were talking about what the ideal first comic should be and while she suggested the consumer pillars of the medium (watchmen, Maus, etc) I am fairly confident that I fell in love with either an Archie Sonic comic or the series based on Batman TAS so she’s processing and I’m right

Quote, “lol,” “roflmao”

My greatest enemy this year has been time and here we are finally near the end

When you’re happy with how something is turning out (but you know that feeling won’t last more than a few hours) Anyway here’s some WIP

For my birthday I want a commitment from everyone writing a book about THESE TIMES to not use “thank you for your attention to this matter” as a title

Same actually

Happy birthday to me

We out here digitally

Heartbroken to hear that the US army shut down its ESports twitch page because people kept asking the service members about war crimes and the reasoning was purely reactive to shitposters

Portland! I will be at COMIX THING in august 23rd! So many great artists! Portland NEEDS a show like this! Come through, come through

Physically readying myself for the daily @helioscopepdx.bsky.social brawl

stop saying some tv pundit or comedian "destroyed" some public figure unless they actually beat the person in question to death with a lead pipe or some shit

I’ve experienced a lot of unpleasant physical sensations and as of this morning “long hair in my smoothie” just took its place in the rankings right next to that time I was sitting in the passenger seat of my friend’s car and we got T-boned
