i appreciate the @pressherald.com granting free access to their crucial live updates on the ICE shooting of a person in biddeford, maine this morning:

A month of Schrödinger’s Mitch and all we get is this weird ass photo of him wearing jeans in bed? If you’re gonna “I lived bitch” dunk on us at least give us a shitty iPhone3 video

SPX! 🎉 We just got the official confirmation! Avery Hill is headed back to Bethesda this September to share all our amazing new graphic novels. We can't wait to see you - and to celebrate all things comics! @smallpressexpo.bsky.social

Hey Chicago! An ICE contractor is trying to buy our parking meters — and City Council decides whether that happens THIS WEEK. We've got time to stop this, but we need as many people as possible to fight back: tinyurl.com/icepark

Many lives have been destroyed thanks to Mitch and Lindsey, but where I think Mitch did so with an evil sparkle of joy in his eye, I don’t think Lindsey was ever happy. So I guess there’s that

AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xmy-...

I’m coming to New Jersey on July 18 for a Soccer Gods art show!! See you there!! Link to RSVP! www.eventbrite.com/e/a-celebrat...

SO, HEY, HERE'S SOME FUN. Went to check Bsky and got hit with this nanny-state BS, figured I should let folks know, if you are in Texas (which has been ruled by the party of "small goverment" for 30 yrs), Bsky wants you to age verify using KWS, which FUN FACT, is BROKEN. I'm on a VPN now, baby.

When the dentist tells the technician, “Can you get my other burr box,” you’re in for a time. Bro had to grind out my metal half tooth because there were bits if broken metal up in there. Sounded like Forged in Fire in my mouth. Fucking angle grinder in my eat hole 😭

Mitch gets to die having accomplished all of his shit ass goals leaving the rest of us worse off and suffering absolutely nothing for it. The jokes are great, but the greatest one is on the rest of us who now have to exist in this hell he helped usher in while he gets to die with a shit eating grin

Maine Democratic Party Executive Director Devon Murphy-Anderson put a video on Twitter a half hour ago, where among other things she said: "Unfortunately, Graham Platner's team has repeatedly reached out to us in an attempt to put their thumb on the scale of what this process looks like."

I wrote about the best 4th of July of my entire life.

Platner, Mitch, USMT World Cup, Monday really said fuck your week

Squirrel in the backyard says nope. It did eventually get up but it hot in the DMV

Since MKUltra is back in the news, enjoy this YouTube short from last year. youtube.com/shorts/7sEiw...

Bleh. Deleted my Reedsy account. I never really pushed it much with their profile boosting thing, but every project that was proposed had some sort of generative AI in it and it just made me sad. I'm sure other illustrators have had good experiences with it, but it's not for me.

I suffered outside for the past couple of weeks to bring you all this.

TrueRef is now on Insta! 🤍 Or almost. I have a bunch of fun BTS footage I'm still prepping, but I forgot how messed up the default Insta feed is, so I am trying to fix that. But we'll have BTS, freebies, edu, etc. All the good stuff. www.instagram.com/trueref.io

Throw some money in if you can. I did. We're all we have. gofund.me/4df4cf2cd

HELLO!!! Are you going to ALA or Children's Institute this weekend? ME TOO! Hope to see you there!!

I can't make this one so you all will have to go there for me and wander around like a deer caught in the headlights staring at all the wondrous books all over and then buy all the things from Jeremy and also go to the signing and ask loudly where I am!!

Just listed this size 8 US women's All Saints leather jacket that I added some fun stuff to a few years back! I was going to fix it up a bit but...no I'm not lol. It should go to someone who will love it. missmonster.bigcartel.com

Wacom doing planned obsolescence with a "Thank you for your support" on their staggeringly overpriced products wasn't on my bingo card but I am UNSURPRISED. If you too are in this position, allow me to draw your attention to what's probably your best solution: opentabletdriver.net

Drove by the Kennedy Center on Sunday and that fucking tarp was still up. But seeing this image behind the curtain makes me slightly less pissed. Visual confirmation that the shit is really removed. www.cnn.com/2026/06/23/p...
