The house is voting tomorrow on a Republican proposed bill to try and absolutely gut Medicaid. We should all (democrats and republicans) be very vocally opposed and outraged by this. See the link provided by ACLU to very easily message your disapproval to your reps ASAP. And share this post by ACLU.

Almost every morning I spend about an hour adding art directors to my email list. The goal I set is that once I hit 400 I can start sending out emails. I think tomorrow will finally be the day. #kidlit #kidlitart #kidlitillustration #picturebooks #chikdrensbooks #kidlitartdirectors

Anyone know of any block lists for people that don't like raspberry ginger ale?

I'm looking for a literary agent. While I'm primarily wanting someone to help out with novel length projects, it'd be great to have an agent who understands the comics industry from all angles (from indie to big YA). Generally, I need a comics sage who can help me navigate this weird industry!

i've hesitated to talk about this but a couple years ago i was in a group conversation with a bunch of older male cartoonists who were joking about another man in the industry who was not present

Oh hell yeah.

If magic was a real thing that anyone could learn to use do you think most people would learn it? I thought of this because to me, making art is one of the closest things there is to making magic and yet most people don't do it. #art #illustration

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.

Got this beautifully illustrated book for Christmas. Always amazed by Nik Henderson's work. #kidlit #christmas #picturebooks

How many times do you think I would have to pace back and forth when trying new shoes at the store for a manager to get involved in the situation.

Hey, anyone figure out how to draw hands yet?

Alex's deadline is Saturday. If you've ever shared an 'oh no' comic - especially if you shared this doctored one with a fourth panel added! rude! - then chuck them a quick donation for their horrible, horrible legal battle.

Been meaning to practice more ink drawing and can't stop thinking about Arcane since I finished it so I figured I'd use a Vi reference to hit two birds with one stone. #arcane #vi #inkdrawing #ink #characterart
