Today is the birthday of writer & artist Fletcher Hanks (Dec. 1, 1889-Jan. 22, 1976). He was only active in the comic industry for three years but is remembered for his unique style & unusual creations such as Stardust the Super Wizard & Fantomah.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

I thought I could not be shocked by what prominent transphobes feel able to say about me. Turns out I was wrong. Here is Richard Dunstan, a prominent commentator closely associated with the Sex Matters charity, speculating that I enjoyed being sexually assaulted as a child.

I heard you like bad boys, i’m screening a DVD on an oil rig

The Munsters poses the chilling question, what if your parents were a vampire and a Frankenstein? The Addams Family poses the chilling question, what if your parents were openly sexual?

well well well, if it isn't my old friend monday. brave of you to show your face around here again after everything you've done

Wicked For Good sounds like a Boston area non profit

I don’t usually comment on people’s appearance, but the consistency with which any right wing public figure looks like they were drawn by Steve Dillon haunts me. From ‘elder statesmen speaks out’ to ‘youth addresses Tory conference’ just 100% grailspawn motherfuckers. It’s statistically unfeasible.

Don't kill the part of you that's cringe, kill the part of you that cringes

I just don't need to know what the Telegraph has written about Dungeons & Dragons. It's a newspaper for people who are frightened of samosas.

If you have characters speaking a language the majority of the audience doesn't speak and they turn on native subtitles and the subtitles are [Speaking in Foreign Language], we have permission to sell your children to a witch.

Imagine posing for a photographer friend who sells your image to iStock and a year later, you see this is what The Washington Post has done with the image of you walking on a beautiful fall day

This should be in the V&A. It’s an essential artefact of UK late 20th century culture.

The deliberate choice of language in an article on the BBC website is grotesque.

Wow. I don’t think I’ve seen something more confidently and offensively incorrect in so few words since my uncle described me visiting my dad as “northern lad returns home”

While the Carers Allowance Overpayment scandal is obviously incredibly important, it's also worth paying attention to the bigger picture. Carer's Allowance is £4331.60 a year and requires you to provide at least 35 hours of care (most do more). Minimum wage for 35 hours is £20,512.80 a year.

lmao

The Singularitarian fantasists who want us to elevate machines to consciousness are not interested in the happiness of all beings. They want to degrade the biological body to a mere vessel, one they can discard. It's bunk theology for men who believe they're too smart and special to die.

These fucking amateur hour Star Wars lists that don't even have the holiday special or either of the Ewok films on them. You're all Stalin airbrushing Trotsky out of history but I remember. I remember!

Tired dog, Rue de l'Ouest, Paris Richard Kalvar, 1974

Excellent

There’s something I find unexpectedly rattling about discovering somebody you personally don’t get along with but thought of as broadly fine has done a really petty and unpleasant thing. Almost more so than if you liked them. I think perhaps because I distrust good/bad binaries so much.

Also not sorry.

Reading an article this morning about Hitler's tiny penis scientists wondering if they found out he had a monster hog would they have kept it a secret or would love of science win the day

Me and the other dads are working on our own k-pop demon hunters where the Highwaymen fight skeletons in cowboy hats

Your favorite obscure weird cartoonist is without a dayjob this holiday season, so buying some goodies (2 of the 27 for sale below) from my collection would really help out AND you get stuff www.ebay.com/usr/jlroberson

Please, please, PLEASE just leave the form blank! If you would like to talk to me about my art, I would heavily prefer DMs on here on social media sites.

PayPal is doing this to sus out artist who create NSFW content like me and other folks in the server. By giving them feedback, you are not only putting artists like me at risk of being banned from the site, but also YOUR OWN account. (continued...)

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice. Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you. (continue...)

“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

Alex Cox, adapting Gogol as a Spaghetti Western, with himself playing the guy buying the souls? Sure, why not! Bring it on!

So… Who had ‘ceiling falling in’ on their Clarrie’s Shithouse Year bingo card?

Dan D.A.R.E. - everything is the same except the Mekon runs a cocaine ring.

Just realised this is referring to a church in North Carolina and not the Welsh singer

“Are the fae open source?” is such a terrifying question in so many ways.

Nine years ago my son drew this for his homework. Other artists failed to capture Stalin's cheeky grin.

Solange Knowles’ Saint Heron has launched a free digital archival library of literature by Black and brown authors, poets, and artists. Readers can borrow rare and out-of-print books for up to 45 days

should have been a thread, clarrie.

(Though actually a LOT of the racist stuff is him saying ‘I feel super racist all the time even though intellectually I think it’s not rational, oh well it’s history times so no reason I can think of to work on changing this’).

NOT THE RACIST THINGS GUYS. A BUNCH OF THE OTHER STUFF.

Sometimes I believe I’ve hit peak NerdLife and then I think a sentence like ‘oh no, I hope I don’t tell a medical professional how much reading HP Lovecraft’s correspondence contributed to realising I’m probably autistic’.

Happy International Men's Day.

The existence of “mother sauces” implies the existence of maiden and crone sauces. In this essay I will…

tedious to see "the government don't actually believe in what they're doing, it's political strategy to neuter Reform" doing the rounds. it doesn't matter! if I stab you to impress some people watching, while assuring you that actually I like you and wish you no ill will, you've still been stabbed
