Happy birthday to one of the greatest, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, he didn't know his actual birthday, but chose to celebrate it on this day. Please read his books and essays; please teach your children his story when they are old enough to understand.

I've loved following Misha's career and watching him grow as a skater; I wasn't expecting this result but I'm so excited for and proud of him!! His gold medal-winning free skate was to Dimash Qudaibergen, an iconic Kazakh singer--he's always very true to himself in his skating!

Just seen yet another new comics anthology with a significant number of creators in it but almost no women. Come on folks, it's 2026. The indie/small press scene isn't actually bereft of women cartoonists. How is this even still a thing?

My comic ‘EVERYWHERE’ is about a girl who meets a boy in a tulip field 🌷 After losing one of my best friends to s*icide, it was a way of tackling that grief the best way I knew how & how I ultimately approach those who come and go in our lives. Link to my comic: chainsaw-shan.itch.io/everywhere

Absolutely wild to see this story about a Minions program breaking containment and being covered outside niche skating communities... Praying that he clears the rights to the banana remix...

As of this morning, here are the six "most backed" projects on Kickstarter. What do they all have in common? They're all indie creator brands. Franchises built from the ground up, that continue to serve their fanbases and find new audiences. And most importantly, they're likely sustainable.

I've been following the news about @sweetshop.app and I've just joined their waitlist--this will be such an asset for marketing comics as distribution continues to fracture. sweetshop.app/join/JWfpFvl

I want us to stay focused on the grief of this terrible moment, but when Black people tell you not to touch something, that is not a challenge. Some things are ours for a reason. We can remember Renee Good as the person she was and the circumstances of her murder without co-opting Black suffering.

I wish Lydia Tár was real so she could appear on one of the new CBS debate shows

The broader your visual vocabulary and literacy is, the better, more memorable and more unique your designs will be. There will be so much more lived experience going into the thought process of your concepts.

Jeff spitting facts! Gonna parrot this-- when I was teaching, I would tell my students to not look solely at what other concept artists/popular illustrators were doing to inform their own designs. Go to your local museums and galleries, look at different mediums and fields, broaden that reach.

EVERYTHING DEAD & DYING #4 is out today from @imagecomics.com with this beautiful @tozo.today cover!

Looking for coloring work. You can find more examples at my portfolio - coloristportfolio.carrd.co

"You have to use AI." ...why?

Abdullah and his family have had to move to a tent, and it's now winter; please continue to share and donate to his campaign

"There’s a freedom people are craving because they’re feeling so constrained, surveilled and, frankly, threatened in so many other spheres." Zines have made a resurgence as communities seek to share information on everything from ICE raids to local elections.
