This just inspired me to a tangent: It makes me sad how "NPC" has been turned into this type of pejorative. I really loved Dan the Bard's take on the concept as a relative term. His notion was that an NPC is someone not engaged in your storyline. But that applied to *everyone*. So 1/3

Look at this big doofus

Yesterday we went to a hockey game and today we went to my nephew's ice-fishing birthday party and I think I am now frozen permanently.

"I hear destructive powers prevailing, I hear fools falsely hailing, To the crooked wits of tyrants when they call."

Meeting with @authorryderomalley.bsky.social yesterday: R: I have an idea but you're going to hate it. Me: You don't know! I might not! What is it? R: *tells me idea* Me: ... No you're right, I hate it.

There is a lot of artwork going on behind the scenes here. Hoping I can get to a place of regular updates and interacting with the outside world soon.

9yo got to pick out a prize after his orthodontist appt. He decided to get a friend for my dashboard pig:

Cannot recommend "A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear" enough! A great read and many valuable lessons. I keep a lot of it in mind at work, unsurprisingly 🤪

Thinking about those hot summer days. 🌞 #KidLitArt #Cats #POV

Had to go into work for a meeting this evening. As if I haven't had enough shoveling today 🤪

The start of...something?

A ladybug dove into my coffee and I didn't notice until I took a sip. That's an auspicious start to my day 🙃

Posters. Stickers. Flyers. “Handbills” although lol nobody says handbills except in academic text. Marking the public space as the home of the public and not the property of the guys who bought up the buildings

Happy Gotcha Day to Rose and Jackie, our big dumb babies. It's been a full year of mother-daughter cuddles, purrs, and chaos. Here's to many more! 🖤🤍

Block anyone posting about the LGB or LGBQ+ community. This is an active effort to erase trans people. There is no Pride without trans people. Specifically trans people of colour. Dropping the T is bootlicking. It's throwing them under the bus and waiting happily to be next.

Had another snowstorm yesterday, so I get to spend my Friday morning digging out again, except this time there are 30mph wind gusts giving us a real-feel of -5°F and booooyyyy do I not want to go outside in that.

Also some of the responses I saw are, I say with love, very naive to kinda dumb. Someone like Vought doesn't have millions of dollars to burn (every year!) on his own private medical research lab that may or may not ever make a breakthrough. www.eenews.net/articles/vou...

This one is fucking infuriating on a personal level for me. (For those of you who don't already know me from another platform: my niece has CF.) Please see next post for a way you can help.

You ever do something smart... and instantly realize what a massive dumbass you are because you could have been doing it that way the whole time?

Okay, here's a little peek at the comic I just finished with @danteshepherd.bsky.social and Sydnie Bayles. It's an educational science comic! I got to draw a bunch of cool stuff for it 😀

Finally got a big project DONE!

OH COME ON

45 minutes of shoveling. That's my workout done, then.

After the storm last night, it's a beautiful snowy, winter wonderland out here! Unfortunately I have to start shoveling it.

Morning musings: Abusers weaponize the social contract just like they weaponize everything else. If you don't play nice and act normal to their messed up little games then they use your reaction against you. "Why are you being so dramatic? I'm just being nice and you're accusing me of this" etc

Yes, things are very on-fire, and that keeps threatening to consume my entire brain. But today is my dear @kveldulf.bsky.social 's birthday, so I'm going to make him a peanut butter tart, wrap his presents, and focus on how very lucky I am to have this wonderful goober in my life.

All of last month's paycheck went to fixing my car and it looks like all of this month's paycheck will be going toward our heating bill 🫠 Being an adult sucks. I want to spend my money on comic books and trips to the movies with my friends.

I have so many things I constantly need to do/work on/check up on/follow up on...I need like, a personal assistant or a wife or something.

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man

That's all I've got! Goodnight, folks #hourlycomicday #hcd2025

I did eventually get it. #hourlycomicday #hcd2025

Work work work #hourlycomicday #hcd2025

Off to work! #hourlycomicday #hcd2025

Just chill out and accept the love, cat! #hourlycomicday #hcd2025
