my take is that requiring editorial staff to commute to any high cost of living city is exacerbating poor working conditions across the industry

Back when I was a comics journalist for a minute in 2017 (?), I wrote about C.B Cebulski, Marvel's then-new EIC, and his weirdly long history of pretending to be a Japanese man named Akira Yoshida. He is now, many years later, leaving that job to become Editor, Asia Originals, at Marvel in Tokyo.

Your moment of snooze. 🪶 🐣

The beauty of sports is you can just decide at any point “I give a shit about this now. Against all reason.” Ten minutes later you hate one of the teams more than life and it’s all downhill from there.

⭐ june's patreon round up! + photo I took on a walk & sketchbook desk posting in june I started a patreon: there are two tiers ($1.50 & $3 USD) but the art posts are public so you can just browse through 'em— there are six pages of studies up currently :) ⭐ patreon.com/heykay

Little painting of my red cherry shrimp. Ironically (considering my last post) this is one of my favorite illustrations I’ve made so far. Perhaps the cure for art block is just to be at peace with it very publicly. (Joking. Kinda.) #lostudies

I love it when an event I’d like to attend only ever publicizes their stuff on Instagram because that way Meta’s wonderful algorithm can show me their one announcement post ten days after the event has taken place.

the rising sun is actually not the national flag of japan it is the flag of imperial japan and all of this information is on the internet, for free!

putting on a random episode of krb on for fun and it's like. okay nevermind. let's suffer instead, actually

Time for a POPUP FUNDRAISER! Give $45(or more!) to Trans Law Center. DM me here to claim, then email a screenshot of your receipt. I'll send you a postcard sketch of any comics character. No celeb likenesses. Comics characters only! (🧵cont) transgenderlawcenter.org/donate/

FUN MOVIE FACT: your eyes did not deceive you if thought a key location from MASTER AND COMMANDER: THE FAR SIDE OF THE WORLD (2003) looked familiar! It's appeared in many classic Hollywood films for decades. True fans of cinema recognize it immediately as: "The Ocean."

i drew a different wolf puppy for my last drawing but the short stubby legged original one still charmed me so i saved him on a different layer 💐

a conversation w/ arthur and medraut anyway. when I said that medraut looks a little like cei on purpose— this will be a surprise tool that will help us torment arthur more later :)

If you're at #ALA2026 I hope you'll come by artist alley! In addition to having hand-crafted some wooden shelf ornaments so that folks have a souvenir from the show, I've got a photo op and plenty of paper figures, books, and folk monster cards. Swing over and say hi and get a peek at the new GN!

hand study sequel! last time I used brushes that I use often, this time I specifically limited myself to 2 brushes that I had downloaded ages ago but never touched haha

i love predatory, carnivorous, sentient, psychically malefic buildings, structures, houses, roadways, tunnel systems, etc. things of that nature

let me just say anyone with a take amounting to "I don't get people who have to beg for their rent money, have they considered getting better work?" should pull themselves up by their bootstraps so hard that they launch themselves into the vacuum of space with the rest of the cosmic jetsam

terrible terrible businessmen

Bringing this back for Juneteenth 👇🏾✨

ENTROPY is our child of love, and it's getting so much of our passion and ideas poured into it that I REALLY hope you will give our demo a chance, so it could possibly speak to you and your tastes -- both in gameplay and storytelling! steamcommunity.com/app/3940340/...

we aren't in a "fanfic recession" but that someone decided to use these terms to complain reveals the real problem; a lot of 'fans' are thinking like shareholders and executives, devaluing creative work, refusing to support the artists they have, and looking at everything with the lens of profit

I dislike so many people talk about art failing if the audience is unable to enact their wish fulfiment as they see fit, like the art is doing something wrong by steering them in a direction they dislike (morally, narratively, hornily, whatever). people lose their minds when art disagrees with them.

lmao what a pair

if you think people making the slanty eyes gesture at asian people isn’t that big a deal kill the racist in your head

🤦
