made a creamy potato soup that was way too rich and have consequently fallen ill

they should invent a shazam for monkeys. like if i'm watching tv and there's a monkey on my tv i should be able to use an app that tells me what monkey it is

my buddy had a dream about "newport snows" which where like, spearmint, not menthol so i made it for him in photoshop and got carried away

PLEASE consider buying some music. I need food/rent money and have an anniversary coming up too... pelagoramrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/a-piec...

Disbanding ICE and prosecuting everyone who led and worked for it is, in fact, the moderate position.

Coming this Sunday, it's Episode 73: Gamer featuring @maximumgraves.bsky.social!

been watching taskmaster lately and i cannot stand noel fielding. if noel fielding has no haters im dead

im just like the gay guys from weapons

too many horror movies this past decade about ghosts, demons, witches. things of this nature. i want more creatures. like, bug people maybe

cats have figured out they can get my attention by knocking over my warhammer minis which is bad news for me

when i was a kid i wanted to be him so bad

really weird how often i will see people repost stories from reddit as if they really happened. the better it illustrates the point you're trying to make the more likely it is to be completely made up

i'll still be here though. no better options available at this time

yeah i've tried to do exclusive patreon content in the past but i don't think it works for me. maybe i'm not as productive as i "should" be but i have to have reasonable expectations for myself based on what has been possible for me in the past

Absolutely shattering details in this Sun-Times piece chicago.suntimes.com/news/2025/09...

The debate around what is or isn’t “cancel culture” really just obscures a simple truth that it’s BAD to be massively racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic and it’s GOOD to speak out against injustice. Some things are good and some things are bad and it’s okay to say which you think are which.

"illustrated non-consensual activity" how is one supposed to determine the consent status of a cartoon

ok i think this website might be cooked

got surprised with a last minute extra charge for $3k and if i dont pay it this week they might cancel my surgery lol!!!!!!! fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay fresh post with my GFM link. Insurance deemed it medically unnecessary. Surgeon's office says they don't appeal denials but I am getting some outside help with trying to overturn that decision. Thank you everyone who has donated and shared so far www.gofundme.com/f/help-ari-g...

on comicfury i put a selection of little quotes at the beginning of the chapter. i think they'd feel out of place in the socmed thread version of the comic but here they are for posterity

i am abandoning my historical practice of updating whn "whenever i feel like it" in favor of weekly updates. there will be more next monday.

i will be reposting the remaining previous chapters of whn on bsky and kind of intended to do that before i posted anything new but i got impatient

jude is my friend and is cool as fuck and deserves one million dollars

It's another month of hits coming down the pike! We've got Quigley with @saralautman.bsky.social, Screamers with Matt Finnegan, Gamer with @maximumgraves.bsky.social, and then we kick off spooky season with Student Bodies with @thekatriarch.bsky.social! The hits just keep coming!

heya! i'm lottie L aka frog K / paris green / etc, nb transfemme author & poet & friend to all online creatures. i'm getting my back x-rayed over an injury that won't quit; while i figure that out, i'm broke and hungry. any help/rbs appreciated! cash.app/$asimplefrog ko-fi.com/frogk (for paypals) <3

Help out Lonnie! I admire his work so much and he doesn't deserve to be going through any of this!!!

i have a headset again. might stream sometime this week

i was vaccinated as a kid but grew up around a lot of other homeschoolers who weren't. felt so good to be the only one who didn't get whooping cough tbh

With all the criticisms of AI one I don't see as often is how it's the final form of the tech industry's 20+ year push to take computers and internet from "useful tool you can use in a vast variety of ways" to "thing that does everything for you and gives you as few options as possible for doing so"

a lot of people don't believe you have interiority if they think you're ugly

i do really need to get my own website and try to direct people to that as much as i can. socmed can't be relied on. one of these days i will figure the whole "website" thing out

there haven't been any updates on this lately bc my headset broke and i can't afford to replace it until my first paycheck comes. my work schedule is also pretty inconsistent but maybe i'll be able to work something out

it's crazy how bad the juneberry red bull tastes

I don't think it's healthy to think about "fandom" or "thinkpiece" when you watch or read something for the first time. I think you should not tell your heart what people will have said about it.

ok also i now realize i have been taking a fuckload of commissions for a minute now so (at least recently) that has been a contributing factor lol. STILL not done with my backlog but i will be soon, at which point i will be able to pick up the pace on drawing new whn

miscellaneous fanart commissions:

some portrait icon commissions

some commissioned art of various original characters

some recent furry icons i was commissioned for

going to start posting all of the commission work i've been doing. character designs belong to clients and not to me. if you would like me to take down a post of your commission or tag you in a reply, let me know.

garfield's scary scavenger hunt. like weeks of nightmares
