SAVE IT FOR LATER has held up very well 5 years later, but in the worst possible way— as we now reap the consequences of those in power not safeguarding the survival of democracy or enforcing meaningful accountability for fascists, billionaires, and their bootlickers.
Five years ago this month, SAVE IT FOR LATER was released. It went to the printer a week before Election Day 2020, to be released into an unknowable political horizon— including the likelihood of a violent, coordinated attempt to overthrow democracy, which did occur on January 6th, 2021. (1/x)
As I do every year on 4/20, I will be following the Jeopardy! interview segment tonight by saying “Dream blunt rotation. Now let’s get back into the Jeopardy! round.”

They found one. One.

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system
I’ll be in Carbondale, IL on Saturday the 18th— I have an art exhibit up for one more week at SIU’s Sharp Museum.
Tabling from 11am-2pm at the student center for Saluki Con, then doing a talk at 2pm, and then I’ll be at a reception for the art exhibit from 3-6pm. See you there?
every superhero movie should run with a PSA about how all the cool shit they’re about to see is based on the work of freelancers unsupported by the companies that have exploited their work for decades
Crushed to hear about Adam Hughes' cancer diagnosis. One of the best comic book artists of our generation. His Black Cat covers have been the highlight of my month. Hoping for all the best for Adam and the whole family.

Diary comic. Purple ink in sketchbook. PANEL 1 A kid holds up a drawing of a round fish-looking shark with a little police hat. Kid: I made this character. It’s a shark that’s a cop. PANEL 2 The kid talks to Gale, who’s sitting at a signing table. Kid:I’ve drawn a bunch of stories about it. Shark Cop. It fights with its teeth and electricity. Gale: oh!! PANEL 3 Gale leans in. Gale: you must love drawing. Kid: yeah!! PANEL 4 The kid looks down at his Apple Watch. Kid: oh also I told my dad about Shark Cop and he got AI to make a picture. PANEL 5 Close on the watch, which is showing an image of a very rendered muscly anthropomorphic shark (as attempted by me). Kid: here it is! PA 6 Gale looks at the watch. PANEL 7 Gale looks at the kid, who brightens. Gale: you know, I like yours way better.
parents, I beg: love your kids’ ideas as they are

On this day in 1999, I self-published CONDITIONS (later reprinted in Tiny Giants & Sounds of Your Name), introducing Todd— who’s a significant presence in my forthcoming book, DIANA.
Faithful bandmate, helpful proto-himbo & mayyy have found his way into a complex, nebulous attraction-triangle.
