(Amy is clearly having a “GET OFF MAH LAWN” night 😆😆😆😆)

We grew up with the super8 film camera. 3 mins of film took a week to be processed out of state. All the Boomers and GenXers in my family were preserved on 8mm. Dad taught me how to thread a projector. My parents got it all digitized to disc eventually but oooooof. This hits hard 😆😆😆

New parents… I hope the whole PLUMMET in literacy among young ppl now lights a fire in your belly to ban internet access until the age of 10. No iPads. Watch TV together. Read together. Go regularly to the library together. #GenXwisdom

Maybe not ✌️assumptions✌️ cuz I’m not a scared media outlet, more ‘foregone concluding HE DEAD Y’ALL’. Proud Ppl of Kentucky, DEMAND PROOF OF LIFE!!

First weekend at home in 2 weeks. On the agenda is find a pub to watch 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿vs🇳🇴 tomorrow,CLEAN THE HOUSE and design some new stickers for SDCC!

yes.

I know it’s gonna be down to the WIRE but I can’t talk Comic Con until these pencils are done. I’ll absolutely have Stuff. I’ll draw you Stuff for 💵. If I have time to make new Stuff I absolutely will 🫶 Artist Alley II-05. Next to @silvaniart.bsky.social as usual.

This is awesome. (Dunno about the LA Queens tho. Queens is already a NY borough and DOMINATED by drag. the LA Flames? We do burn a lot over here…)

Great, more Peanuts patches to not even stand a chance of getting. (🖕🖕🖕 you, flippers)

🤙

Imagine arguing "I'm stupid and lazy, but I want to make the same sort of living smart and motivated people do, so asking me to NOT be stupid and lazy is unfair" and thinking you rocked it.

HOKAY. Holiday weekend is over, I got 20 pages of comic to pencil before comic con.

Actual tough guy: protecs wimmin ‘n’ infinks, kind to dumb animals.

Everett True would have flung bricks at Stonewall.

In an absolutely packed tiny brewery in north park. MEXICO!!! 🇲🇽 ⚽️

Good. Now shut down people who bring stupid loud speakers to the beach and disturb everyone with their shitty music for half a mile in every direction.

Obviously fake people AI is bad but I find it extra pathetic that people make AI animals vids. Like, do you KNOW how much fun and weird shit REAL animals do every single day??

I believe in the American people. In community. In neighborliness. In supporting those who need help. Don’t believe the billionaires dictating our policies. There’s space and resources for everyone. 🇺🇸

Spending today at a tiny craft brewery in San Diego. Adel Dazeem did good on the national anthem… even tho the US weren’t playing lol

Great thread Chris has written here

Hanging out to watch Argentina vs Cape Verde for no other reason to watch Messi in action and learn that Cape Verde is an actual place lol

We tried Prohibition once. The only thing it did was give power and money to organized crime.

Shoot. Well done Egypt, you earned that one.

At a PACKED pub in San Diego watching 🇦🇺vs 🇪🇬 It’s 1-1 in extra time. (Go you good thiiiing)

3 Australian players were born in a refugee camp 💚💛

oh F*** off. You stigmatize me, go right ahead, I’ll be over here with my equally stigmatized friends. Having fun. 🍹🥂🍸

Nearly all of these places require paid admission or the expectation to pay for the service provided (bars). That’s not a third space. Third spaces are free to everyone.

I swear, "a pope from Chicago excommunicates a Nazi-adjacent sect" is like a cut scene from The Blues Brothers

I just pencilled a 24 page storybook in 2.5 days, consisting of 5 well-known characters I’ve(mostly) never drawn before. Damn I’m good. 😎😎🍻

Today’s Best comments thread:

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

No we’re not. We’re really really REALLY not. I’m gonna watch the World Cup at a local pub with friends and maybe go to SD zoo on the weekend. The national celebration will happen when he’s gone.

Raised Catholic here. No they’re fucking not, asshole. 🖕🖕🖕🖕 Excommunicate him, Leo. Exorcism’s too good for this blaspheming POS.

More people lined up at dinky little Fanexpo Anaheim to see the Hobbits panel.

Aw this is sad. Margot Leadbetter was one of the greatest women characters in British entertainment (along with Sybil Fawlty and Patsy Stone)

Yeah nah. Next weekend I’m gonna hang with my fellow naturalized besties. We might go hike in a national park, then go eat and drink at various small businesses with other normal people. America. Both the people who stewart this land and built this nation deserved better than this. ✊

ANYWAY, that’s out of the way, I just have to finish 2 covers and pencil as much as I can of 2 separate projects in the next 3 weeks and then COMIC COOOOON. No sweat.

WB’s current version of the Nine Old Men are these distinguished DC animated/Animaniacs gentlemen. The urge to photobomb this was agonizing.

Thank you everyone who stopped at my Fanexpo table. The fun part was 3 days hanging with @pauldini.bsky.social next door, dinner with @agnesgarbowska.bsky.social and the usual rampage through the Disney hotel bars with @scjacka.bsky.social @cegoodman2.bsky.social and @21royalstreet.com

See this?! This is what makes us shut off commissions or insist on personalization. Fuck flippers. I was really proud of this one too 😖

So fun fact: I’ve been doing some Topps Disney art trading cards over the past few months. The first wave is now out in the wild. I made the mistake of checking eBay and, knowing what I got *paid* for the card, now I hate the world #flippers

PEGGY!!!!

Happy birthday Mel Brooks. Gonna just yell this at random at con goers…

Guys GUYS!!! I just got to meet Paul Williams 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 (don’t shoot the piano player!)

Just doodling these guys for the first time…

All set for Fanexpo Anaheim! I’m at the back corner of HallD next to @pauldini.bsky.social !! Come get some cool stuff or just hang!

Somewhere around me is a red-tailed hawk nest and the chicks have clearly reached punk teenager stage. SO MUCH SCREAMING!

Just a reminder to SoCal folks I’ll be at Fanexpo Anaheim this weekend at table P68 starting at 1pm Friday for VIP attendees. I’ll have many out of print comics and fire sale prints and pins!! Also commissions! Look, it’s a local show, I’m there to hang with friends and meet y’all! ❤️

I have the privilege of playing whack-a-mole on a whole bunch of gigs that people believe I’m worth paying for. It’s all due in 4-6 weeks but on every single one I’m going to give my best. Today it’s a convention variant cover that is SO FUN to work up.
