Get this and my eel zine at Yayuco today or this weekend from @nikismithcomics.bsky.social at her table ✨✨

I've got a three day con this weekend and I'll probably be sitting behind my table folding MORE BUTT ZINES. Find me at Yayuco ✨

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

wish that were me

Must...make...itty bitty new zines...... Tummy time with a thermal printer

major fan of my wife and my wife's COOL LINO ZINES

Just getting really emotional about comics youtu.be/ChL6KWDdaPw

Backed by the Heritage Foundation and Big Tech, KOSA will force everyone to upload their ID to access the internet. In an age when Palantir has direct ties to ICE, where technofascists are in power and want to eliminate and censor everything, we CANNOT allow KOSA to pass. It NEEDS mass pushback.

28 shortbox fair comics bought... I think I'm set.

CHAINSAW MAN

Back to figure drawing (and a roadside attraction along the way)

200 one-sheet riso comics ready to fold

NHK took down the Manben Otomo episode before I could watch it, whyyy. Help please.

Read that again. .01% of parents deny their children access to school libraries because it is literally .01% of parents creating the moral panic and spreading lies about books in school libraries. Yet there are schools COMPLETELY BANNING LIBRARIES FROM THEIR ENTIRE STUDENT BODY.

me desperately taking my vitamins when the sun starts setting at 4 PM every goddamn winter

Don't look I'm crying at the drama adaptation of What Did You Eat Yesterday again

I'm working on a pair of truly mini zines... the size of pogs

Feeling the need to remind myself of this Ursula K LeGuin quote today: "We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings."

I finally put my .pdfs up on itch! As a soft-launch treat, you can download "I'd Rather Be At Riis," a tiny zine about one of my favorite places in NYC, for free. You can also snag Looking at Birds 1-3, plus my fantasy item design & use case zines, No Swords #1 & #2! careydraws.itch.io

Having fun with Baby Steps, but boy is that rough on the old wrists/hands after a while

It's Banned Books Week, so I dropped off copies of my challenged books at three little free libraries around town @authorsabb.bsky.social @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

It's banned books week and so I'm legally obligated to bully you, a person who has ever had their name on a book, into joining @authorsabb.bsky.social. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... We fight the source of book bans with calls to action, partnership w everyone in the game, and offer training.

check out what’s going on with your schoolboard (especially if you’re a parent!), find out what your local libraries need and what would help, look at how budget allocation works on your state and local level to see if you can join with other people to advocate for funding and access

re: these discussions around banned books week, getting involved in your local political landscape will do way more to prevent book bannings and ensure access to materials than buying a few books for yourself! this is something i’ve been remiss in but i’m looking forward to being active here in ohio

babe go for a walk with me on the

We have Niki’s zine THE VINEGAR MOTHER on offer now! Riso printed, stitched and nominated for the @ginco.bsky.social 😀 Kwimbi.de

Potatoes just let out a Missy Elliot siren squeak when removed from the oven

I want to keep in mind that I have many years of making art ahead of me, even if getting it in front of readers is a struggle. I can make the stories to my satisfaction. That's in my power. And yours.

Went to my first ever figure drawing event as a date night with @nikismithcomics.bsky.social and found out just how hard drawing from life is.

Figure drawing last week!! it’s been too long.

Being an immigrant means getting to see the delight in your friends' eyes as they try their first (and second) (and third) grilled cheese and tomato soups

If you're trying to get an old wacom to work w newer mac OS, I can't recommend the "Connect my tablet" app highly enough!! they're not paying me to say this lol. got my 2013 cintiq working 6 years ago AND got the same model cintiq AND a ~2011? intuos working on a much newer OS today. lifesavers!!!

As we boycott vile companies, a reminder that many US public libraries offer: 1) Ebooks & audiobooks via the Libby app. Pro tip: use the “notify me” tag to request your library add books by trans, disabled, & BIPOC authors! 2) TV & film streaming via Kanopy 3) Language learning via Mango 💙📚 And:

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.

My 24-hour-comic zine THE VINEGAR MOTHER was recently nominated for a @ginco.bsky.social Award here in Germany! It's existed exclusively as a riso printed zine at cons for the last year, but with the nomination I thought I'd finally share it online. It's a weird little comic/zine to explain... (1/4)

too real

I spent the past week covered in paint but it was all worth it for… my first ever WINDOW DISPLAY! 🥹✨ So happy with how it all came together 💖 You can check it out at Books of Wonder in Manhattan!!

Taking my wife's japanese colleague to a lederhosen and dirndl flea market and wowwwwwww

Hey that's ME!! Officially announcing my next graphic novel, MIDSUMMER SISTERS!

Due to popular demand, we are setting up a heavily discounted fulfillment service for artists outside the US that are scrambling after the recent tariff / customs policy put in place for shipments to the USA.

Anyone got any good tennis manga recommendations, for Reasons

Same! Please feel free to get in touch.

These paypros still need to be pressured over this shit! If you havent made any calls yet, now is a great time to start doing so because theyre only continuing to ramp up their shitty censorous behavior!

Waking up to so much vague posting really got my hopes up.

I will be able to share the title SOON, and also.... it'll be out in, um, nine months. I've been working hard.
