My piece for the @c2e2.bsky.social 2026 Zine which has the theme of "Chicago Diner." They'll have that comic for sale at the show, and I'll have prints of this at my table in Artist Alley (table W1) and (eventually) on my online shop. This was too much fun.

Wait til this kid learns about filing taxes...

It's nice when you forget you made a piece of music and it's like you're hearing it for the first time. youtu.be/ScLGuXdU5d4?...

Added Stairway to Vinyl to the shops that carry my albums. And it was great to pick up my pal Tom Maslowski's End Transmission record! Whether it's my album or not, it's good for the soul to go find an artist you like and buy something they did. I do it all the time and love it, join me won't you?

For all my e-learners out there today. Stay warm wherever you are!

I'm at 66 followers for the forthcoming Beardo 20th anniversary KS. Which means that if one more person gets on board, my kids can have their brainrot moment. www.kickstarter.com/projects/dan...

Throwback Thursday. Tomorrow I'm unveiling something pretty cool so stay tuned!

Nothing like some mindful medication...

This Saturday from 6-10pm! First show of the year and it’s in the Ravenswood area of the city! I’ll be there tabling with books, prints and art, hope to see you there!

These kids don't respect sleeping in on the weekends.

We're still cool, right?

From the mouths of children...

As good as Dilbert was, there unfortunately was more to the story.

Are you a morning person or a night person?

I just backed Evie and the Helsings Volume 1 Trade Paperback on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/don...

I'm definitely jinxing myself with this one.

A Throwback Thursday that's as timely as ever.

You really gotta spell it out sometimes.

When the lesson is learned too well.

Back. To. School.

Throwback Thursday.

At least someone's listening.

Record stores are having their Heyday! Here's a few so far: Audiophil's Records Crooked Arm Vinyl & Tap Windycityrecords Blue Village Vinyl Drop the name and/or link to a shop you want have a Heyday and I'll see if I can make it happen!

“Miss, do you agree with the sign?” “Absolutely not. My great niece was 4 months pregnant and her fetus had no skull. And because of men involving themselves in women’s bodies she was forced to deliver the fetus… there’s a reason God created medicine.”🔥 #ForcedBirthNation

Merry Christmas! Here's the 19th annual Beardo Christmas card, with the star of the show: Jolene!

Throwback Thursday from 9 years ago. Still relevant.

Third row FTW.

Strangely proud.

Sorry, what was your question?

Throwback Thursday.
