Congratulations! It’s impossible to pick a favorite but this one is among the contenders.

2024: The Year in Comics, w/ @girlgenius.bsky.social @eljoebenitez.bsky.social @mcholly1.bsky.social @hopelessmaine.bsky.social @kevinlaporte.bsky.social et al. #steampunk steampunk-explorer.com/articles/202...

Wow! Looks like fun!

The US Mint has introduced a coin bearing the likeness of astronomer Vera Rubin. They should have mixed some tungsten into the alloy, so that the Vera Rubin quarter would be mysteriously heavier than expected.

I’ve been doing a lot of advertising lately. To make up for it, here’s a cute little amigurumi dingbot that one of our Australian readers made for us! It’s been far too long since I was in Australia and I miss it.

Ending one minute before midnight tonight! kck.st/3VAqElx

Hey Cinderella! Our Cat Royalty and Fantastical Costume Medals #Kickstarter ends one minute before midnight tonight! (Friday, 01/17/25) #girlgenius Here’s the link: kck.st/3VAqElx

Wednesday’s #Girlgenius #comic was a double-page meant to cover Wed. And Fri., but at the last minute, Phil sketched a little joke that I decided we needed to keep. So it isn’t in color exactly, but it’s up! I hope you like seeing Eekineezer again!

The #GirlGenius Medals #Kickstarter campaign ends Friday. Here’s the official collectible medal for Volume 21! Back our #Cat Royalty and Fantastical Costume Medals Kickstarter: kck.st/3VAqElx

#webcomics #girlgenius Girl Genius for 1/15 (www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php) Normally we break Double-Page Spreads up over two updates– but to hell with that, we've been waiting for this for over 10 YEARS. So now I get to take Friday off…And do my taxes. Yay.

The #Kickstarter campaign ends Friday! Here’s the official collectible medal for Volume 20! Back our Cat Royalty and Fantastical Costume Medals Kickstarter! Here’s the link: kck.st/3VAqElx

The builds at the Zoo lantern show were beautiful but also very cleverly designed. These flowers shot giant booming smoke rings when the big floor button was pushed!

Yesterday I did my best to photograph all our extra Kickstarter campaign medals from old campaigns. I'll be listing those on BackerKit once the current campaign ends in 7 days. Here's one of my favorites! The current Cat Royalty campaign: kck.st/3VAqElx

The #cat medal samples are here, and I finally got around to taking decent photos of them, so now I've changed the main photo on the Kickstarter campaign. Only a little over a week left, by the way! #girlgenius #kickstarter #foglio kck.st/3VAqElx

#girlgenius #kickstarter #cats A bit more than a week to go on our Cat medal Kickstarter! (www.kickstarter.com/projects/gir...) The suspense is killing us!

#webcomics #girlgenius Girl Genius for 1/8 (www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php) Had to work hard to NOT have Agatha say "Here we go…" but since she is not a juggler, we did not. In many ways, however, story-wise We, your professors, are. So, Here we go–

The samples for the medals are here! Nine days to go on the Kickstarter campaign!

SUPPORTIVE GANDALF

The lunar new year isn’t technically here yet, but here are all the little guys I’ve picked up over the years. The soft tiger on the far left front row was the first. He’s kind of dusty now. It was weird to start over again a few years ago.

#science A friend of mine just turned me on to a new scientific search engine: Consensus (consensus.app). It states that it only shows results from Peer Reviewed papers & articles. Pretty darn useful… when I'm not looking for webcomics and anime. Hey, don't judge, we're all complex organisms.

Percy doesn’t care at all what’s in the box, but I do, and I’m going to open it on Twitch stream tomorrow (Monday, Dec. 30) at 5PM Pacific Time on my Twitch stream. I’m ProfessoressaFoglio over there. Join me for a chat! www.twitch.tv/professoress...

Well, look at that!

Have a lovely week, everyone!

I finally made a personal account so I can post pictures of rocks and bones and raccoons and things. It’s @kajafoglio.bsky.social

Oh, I really like this idea. Maybe next year.

The samples for our new medals have arrived! I’m so excited to see them, but I want to open them on stream, so I’m waiting until I figure out a good time to do it! The Kickstarter campaign runs through mid January, so I have some time.

❄️The troll and the lost child❄️

I especially like the snowflake Santa cookies

Cute pastries at the corner bakery

Kevin Perjurer of the acclaimed Defunctland Youtube channel has an incredible new video essay about Disney's animatronics that goes heavily into the history of automata. All his videos are great, but this one hits me right in the special interest! youtu.be/jjNca1L6CUk?...
