It’s the last week of school before summer break, and my kid came home and took a pile of comics into our little backyard hammock. I brought them lemonade and pretzels and a pillow. They’re almost nine and they’ve got it all figured out.

Does anyone who’s been following me for like 20 years happen to have MP3s of my old music? I lost a lot in a computer crash ages ago. I have my albums, but I don’t have a cd drive anymore! Lemme know, I’d love to get em all up online to share. I currently have just these 4: Lucyknisley.com/music

Open season on my t-shirt drawer.

I don't often do in-person podcasts, but when at a Mini-Con in my own state, I had to do it. So, in separate segments in this week's Off Panel, I talked with the great Kazu Kibuishi, @ryannorth.ca, and @lucyknisley.bsky.social about why comics rule, basically. It's a delight. Listen up!

Hate being sick but love how happy it makes my cats.

Have a hunger for graphic novels? Ever felt more passion for a sandwich than is necessarily proper? Then "Relish" is for you! Join #GeekGirlCon at @outsidercomics.com Thursday for #BookClub at 7 and signings by @lucyknisley.bsky.social at 6. You can even pick up your very own tasty copy there!

So psyched to be back in Juneau for the Mini Con!

You know that thing where a favorite musician has a song that mentions the city they’re performing in and when they sing it, everyone in the audience loses their minds? I love that.

Alaska pals! I’m signing with a bunch of comics pals in Juneau THIS SATURDAY, 1-5, at the beautiful Alaska State Museum! Come see @davidmalki.com & @lucyknisley.bsky.social & @ryannorth.ca & @scottmccloud.bsky.social & @goraina.bsky.social ALL DRESSED IN THE WRONG CLOTHES FOR ALASKA WEATHER! :)

A lot of adults that I talk to who use machine-generated slop content technology have no idea how much it sucks for the environment. They’re willing to use it despite all the OTHER ethical concerns, though.

My fundamental understanding of the world hinges on basic concepts like: “Being yourself is good” “Stealing is wrong” “Try to treat everyone fairly” “Don’t ruin the planet” But all of these are controversial, I guess? It’s like realizing that tons of other Americans don’t think gravity exists.

We're super excited to host author and illustrator @lucyknisley.bsky.social for a conversation and signing on 5/22 at 6PM! Lucy's comics on food, cats, parenthood, and so much more are absolutely delightful and, as a special bonus: our book club for her book Relish meets at 7PM on the same day!

I’ve been trying to take new author photos, but Baggy is so much more photogenic than I am. Look at her absolute disdain.

Some Timelapses of the live-portrait-drawing I did last night at @bookedevanston.bsky.social’s second Hot Moms party! I caught about 16 Pokemoms in two hours— not a bad catch!

We got back from our trip to the bookstore to pick up @verabrosgol.bsky.social ‘s new book only to find a package from the publisher containing the very same book! Now we have one for us and one for a friend! ✉️✉️

The crabapple is good right now.

I have too many bad lists, lately. So here is this week’s “good list:” -Holding a friend’s baby -How much kids love stuff -Laughing with/at old friends -Chocolate bread -Big loving queer concert -My partner’s laundry smell -Bookshop parties -What I give to my community -Cat playing fetch

We got our kitties nine months ago, and I’m thrilled to report that I’ve recently discovered that one of them* PLAYS FETCH. *Baggy. Yoshi would NEVER stoop to engage in a DOG’s game, but does enjoy the show.
