my only splurge from awesome con was this sketch by chris bachalo. he invites you to sit and chat with him while he draws which is nice. i always feel like i'm looming 😂 i asked him to draw death, which i'm sure he's sick to, um, death of, but she's one of the first characters i fell in love with ❤️

it sickens me that these atheistic asshats use god as a salve to appeal to the masses. these dicks worship at the alter of money, power and white nationalism. those are their gods. but they know their followers believe in jeebus so they polish those halos. it's gross

sb barista: can i get a name for your order? me: lori sb barista: ok, got it... LOO ARE AYE 🙄

was gonna do a cosplay this weekend for awesome con, but i don't think i have enough spoons for it. i'm just going to go, try not to have panic attacks and try to look at as much cool art as i can lay my eyeballs on. enjoy the wig i'll use another time (black jack. i was gonna do black jack)

i was in kohl's yesterday, buying some over the shoulder boulder holders, when i overheard a woman in line talking to a man she didn't know about the rapture. he was uncomfortable. i was uncomfortable. it was as real to her as the weather. religion is wild y'all...

in 2021 i drove to the @mahoningdit.bsky.social all by myself to take part in the absolute most punk rock mutant jamboree of all! we got some bad news this week, but we all know that the drive in will never die! viva la @therealjoebob123.bsky.social @darcythemailgirl.bsky.social

Shirley Jackson was right. No live organism can exist sanely for long under conditions of absolute reality.

@discontinuedfoods.bsky.social cinnamon coke? my bf laments it every christmas. i think it sounds terrible, but he swears by it. i came here to see if you ever covered it 🤷🏼‍♀️

@ecfnj.bsky.social definitely more mascots next visit 🙂‍↕️

one thing you need to know about me is that i really love 'a christmas story'. especially the house. i've been to cleveland twice to tour it. once by myself! i got this little christmas scene in the awesome gift shop my first visit ❤️

i totally macguyver'd this weird bear head at work today for our christmas parking meter downtown. faux fur, styrofoam, staples, thread/needle and some bags. is it weird? yes. am i proud of it? also yes.

I did a thing today! Stopped by @vortexbooksncomics.bsky.social and saw @briankeene.bsky.social and @marysangiovanni.bsky.social, and had a blast. This constituted a mini-roadtrip for me, @ecfnj.bsky.social and @bluntlittletool.bsky.social, along with The Bug, and it was a glorious outing.

a coworker had a baby girl 🩷 she and her husband like to fish and chose a very neutral color palette for their nursery. so i painted this for them. the pup is bonnie, their first 'baby' and my favorite work buddy

incase you were thinking that i might be cool, i'm here to assure you that @ecfnj.bsky.social is the infinitely cooler one in this relationship. here is photographic proof, taken on the same night. he, with his niece, at a gwar concert and me, um, ever the fashionista, about to lump on the couch 😂

@ecfnj.bsky.social and i went to garden lights at the museum of the shenandoah valley tonight. it's become a favorite annual welcome to the holiday season 😌🎄❤️

finding joy despite the world in 2025 is like this lol

it me 🙋🏼‍♀️

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

ever have one of those moments where something from the past floods back so hard that it almost knocks you on your ass with the most wonderful nostalgia and you can't believe that you ever forgot about it in the first place? that happened to me yesterday. ed emberly. these book were amazing...

Shove a Pumpkin Up My Ass is mandatory yearly #halloween viewing. I think Yuki worked on this! #hallmark

macready for horror trivia tonight. we tied for third place!

yes. this. thanks brad! @cbccpodcast.bsky.social

I think a lot about Jack Kirby and Joe Shuster creating Captain America in 1940. They were 23 and 27. Both Jews and sons of immigrants, inventing an American icon and having him punch Hitler on the cover before the US even entered the war. That was bravery…that was heart.

Reminder that I'll be in Winchester, VA this Saturday for a Halloween event at @fourcolorfantasies.bsky.social. I'll be signing comics, doing sketches and bringing original art to look at and possibly buy. Haven't done an out-of-town siging in over a decade, at least. Hope to see some folks there.

Chuck Dixon created Bane. I don't bring this up to argue that creating that character somehow negates his current behavior, but to talk about a problem very prevalent in comics. And that is bigoted people making bank off the very marginalized groups they later demonize and discredit.
