Well, if it’s 23 September... YES, THAT’S RIGHT! It’s the 71st anniversary of the hunt for the Gorbals Vampire, in which hundreds of children aged from four to 14, armed with dogs, knives and sharpened sticks went looking for an urban myth

Interesting footnote (and the link has more detail on the story)

Figured I should get back to these goobers.

We let the passionflower vine grow where it wanted this year and look at what I spotted this evening!

Thunder is a rumblin’.

Everything is really scary and chaotic for Trans individuals right now. Regardless of whatever lies and fear that is spread, we know that the world is better with Trans people in it. You are all worth fighting for, and we will continue to advocate for your rights and your safety.

There‘s a starfleet delta in my pringles

Thought I could sketch a quick Batman from memory before Batman Day was over. may have been a mistake. Immediately blanked out on how far the cowl goes down, what the bat-symbol looks like and how human anatomy works.

Can you identify the species of snake by the shed skin? We came across this shed on a dry creek bed this afternoon. Niagara region, Ontario.

Thought I spied a woodland nymph on our hike this afternoon.

Late night nest #watercolour. I saw a nest like this on the ground after a windy day last week. (It didn’t have eggs in it). It was woven with pine needles,fine twigs and cottony bits of milkweed silk and spider webs and things. I’m guessing a goldfinch nest.

I see they got those new LED’s in the lamp posts at the mall.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

Artists! Quote with your fanart!

Artists! Quote with your fanart! (In this case, for that other Star Wars show about individuals coming together to rebel against fascism)

Hey, #Belleville - do your part in protecting your community - tell the Belleville Police Service that this city of 50,000 people does not need them geared out for Kandahar. Tell them not to buy an armoured assault vehicle: #ONpoli #Policing reminds me of #ICE

I want to staple this (in as much as you can staple a video clip lol) onto the foreheads of writers and editors who have limited experience making comics.

hey this is a long shot but does anyone know if i can buy a replacement of this bowl? This shard is the only part left really, my cat broke it and it shattered and i loved it 😭 i bought it at a 100 yen store in NYC in like 2005

A little late-night #watercolour nest in progress.

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

we dont need boycotts, these places have too much centralized money due to their monopolies. they can literally exist for 300 years without taking a real financial hit. we need a GENERAL. FUCKING. STRIKE.

fish want me. you want fish. you want fish hanging on your wall #ceramics drop on sept 21, 8pm CT

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

I wrote about the firing of Alan Sepinwall, which is awful. And I tied it into what's happening all over in the media, why it's scary & what we can do to help. I used my words, but it's definitely Hulk Mo dialed up to 11, if that's a thing you would like to experience: www.moryan.com/on-the-firin...

The most amazing part of this is that the far right didn't target her because she celebrated Kirk's death or even threw his own words back at them. She merely expressed a well-founded worry that his murder might inspire the far right to greater violence and they apparently took that as a challenge.

If I keep growing out my pixie cut, I could pull-off cartoon April O’Neil for Hallowe’en. Just needs to get a bit poufier.

“What radicalized you?” Bro I was told to treat people the way I would want to be treated in kindergarten and it made sense idk what else there is to say

My kid’s high school just sent out an email because they had a “lock and learn” this morning, which is a cute way of saying,”emergency lockdown“.

Painting that little butterfly I saw at the Niagara gorge.

I feel like it’s been years since I have seen a toad, so, coming across a toad on a log in the woods today was a true delight!

idk if you've seen this south korean editorial that ran a few days ago. google translate version scorched my eyebrows www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

A well done study by a group that I think are probably the major ipac thought leaders in Ontario demonstrates that clean indoor air in hospital rooms reduces sars-2 transmission. The tide really is turning. Kudos. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Below is CAG 938's statement on the recently announced event in Stanley Park.

Chatted with a cat from Sesame Workshop last night and pleased to confirm for fellow nostalgic dorks that, not only is “The Monster at the End of This Book” still in print, it is the only Sesame Street book that has never been out of print. The kids are gonna be all right.

Gotta love a Universal Monsters crossover. Tell me there’s a Creature from the Black Lagoon Bear, and an Invisible Man Bear? Wolfman?

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun. Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found. WSJ owes a full retraction and apology. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Can you spot the Blue Jays in the first photo?

Four left! Lemme know if you want one. I will pop it into the mail tomorrow.

Pearl Crescent butterfly in the Niagara Gorge this afternoon. Do you think the butterflies down near the rapids are thrill-seekers?

Canadians, we're always out here wishing we could do something, so here you actually can for once. This is an OFFICIAL government petition, so it will count!!

Part of the statement from the @transjournalists.org on reporting details of the the Charlie Kirk shooting investigation. Full statement here: www.transjournalists.org/tja-urges-ca...

Was just driving on the parkway near the Falls and the amount of emergency vehicles was really concerning. Wondering if a tourist fell over the edge. Looks like they have rope crews getting ready to rappel down.

Came across some work from one of those late-night ideas that I second-guessed the next day and set aside. For years. I must have done these after watching Hellboy. I thought it would be funny to make up ”cat adoption” papers for the BPRD with mixed-media cat portraits.
