Three years ago, I was approached by many artists at Hiveworks asking if their mistreatment was normal. That their feelings of horrible self worth within the company was really just a 'them' problem. Turns out, it was unfortunately normal in that we ALL felt that way.

Oh right, my webcomic also updated today if you wanted to check it out and support it. We don't really make much since leaving Hiveworks, so anything helps!

A lot of us have actually made a webcomic ring called Chimera Comics after we left hiveworks: chimeracomics.org This isn't the full list as some artists want their hands completely washed of the situation, but this is a start!

Look at this priceless treasure I got out of a Little Free Library

There should be a german word for when you're texting with someone and you send a giant ass paragraph and they leave you on read and I don't mean only in a dating context I'm talking about my mother

This is what at least half my fans were expecting when they started reading my webcomic Midnight Furies m.youtube.com/watch?v=6NAk...

Yes to all of this! AND you also stumble down amazing rabbit holes (hello, the War of the Castle of Love) and make new friends and have an excuse to buy fascinating, out of print secondhand books! Why would you choose a dodgy shortcut when the long way is so much more scenic and rewarding?

Quick reminder: While I do a lot these kinds of drawing on my iPad for fun and to clear my head, I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO BE COMMISSIONED TO INK THEM FOR YOU THE PEOPLE. If you see me posting one you like and are interested in owning some original art, please get in touch at tomfowlerart at gmail.

My work got juried into the Society of Illustrators this year!!

pay me six figures to explain to your boss why users don't want a spotify-style review of their recession job hunting

linkedin should hire me so they don't make the mistake of sending these fucking emails again

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

what tumblr user canibalings and myself have been wondering

I’ve been struck again At the farmers market some gen z enby said I “reminded them of their middle school art teacher” Us long-faced, big-haired white girls are sure a Type™️aren’t we

I want everyone not in the hellhole of job hunting to know that they're now doing "AI initial interviews" So I have to jerk off an AI with all the right corpo buzzwords just to get the chance to talk to a real person someone please shoot me

Creators: ok so I'm gonna break out stuff into tiers, and my biggest fans who support me the most get to see- Patreon: this is a free post right? you want to make it a free post? Or it can be 'free' and ppl just pay for that post haha... what? tiers?

A woman in LA last week straight up cut my head off with “excuse me, you look like you smudge. Do you burn any palo santo?”

every job listing on linkedin: "you must be passionate about AI" oh I'm passionate about it buddy but I don't think you're going to like what I have to say

Brennan Lee Mulligan is the Sherlock Holmes of our time, by which I mean we’re lucky he’s turned his masterminding to causes that benefit humanity instead of, you know, crime.

You know you’re over 35 when you spend like a solid five minutes of your commute trying to remember how old you are

I've never insta-purchased a book series one after another like I have with Murderbot. Just take my money Martha, just take it and give me more

With the awful news from the last couple hours, this post from the political optimism subreddit helped to break through a bit of the despair fog. Repubs know this is political suicide, ICE's support is crumbling despite the budget increase, and there's a myriad of ways to fight back. Keep strong.

I have three hearings at three different courthouses today. At the second, someone was sobbing outside the courtroom. They'd asked ChatGPT what to say in Court. They believed what it told them. They lost because it hallucinated, and they didn't know there were no do-overs.

The modern day equivalent of medieval monks trying to purge their thoughts of sinful lusts is trying to forget that online comment that made you mad as hell

IT'S JUNETEENTH! There is still so much fucking work to do in this country to clean up the blood it was built on and so many reparations owed. One of the small ways we can help is actively seeking out, hiring, supporting and buying from Black artists. bsky.app/starter-pack...

Woke up to discover a tumblr post of mine from a few weeks ago about @dropout.tv 's #Gamechanger episode Drinking Game has become by far and away my most popular post www.tumblr.com/jpherron/785...

My god. 6 MILLION acres of public lands in Oregon, including the vast majority of our national forests, will be sold in a fire sale if the MAGA budget passes.

Here’s a New York Times photo of the Chicago “No Kings” rally. NYT said the march that followed spanned at least 10 blocks.

I’m too contagious with Covid right now to be out there, but I’m so proud of everyone who’s out at a NoKings event! 👏👏

Wishing everyone the best who are attending protests today!! Reminder to be careful with what you share online and black out the faces or tattoos of your fellow protestors if you choose to share pics!

there are a lot of good people in this country we will win

I love you Seattle. #abolishice #nokings

I hope we're making the French proud
