After months of not keeping my end of paying house rent agreement with my dad, today we gave him money for the month plus more toward utilities and he gave me very affirming encouragement and knows that I'm trying. My self esteem got a degree better today.

1. Yes, this is some weird shit. 2. He’s getting ready to do something really fucking illegal.

Oops 😬

I am having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that 2020 was 5 years ago. It feels like 20 years ago and yesterday all at once.

Year of the snake.

I’m not gonna lie to you gang, things are not very cash money lately.

Got a party gig after a month of only part-time job. Feeling complicated emotions over the freelancing I've done for 15 years yet still feel not much was accomplished. I got the talent, but not the salary.

I haven’t drawn a duckbike for a while

Great post, now with alt text

Explain your username: I am a Neil and I am an illustrator. In that order.

Spent some money on housewares and a grooming tool. And a feel good purchase of "Full Moon Soup" by Alastair Graham; a children's book that was massively influential on me when I was young. It's a time-lapse story of a spooky, chaotic hotel and chocked full of detail and storytelling.

Aaaand I cried.

A rainy day of caring for my family household and being happy! Except for a panicked interruption almost being charged $1400 by our security system... nice day.

(elder millennial when encountering with 1 slight, easily resolvable personal problem) wow fuck my entire life

It sure is a weird time to be alive.

Almost got tricked into working open to close at part time job. I have too much to do at home.

Slain UnitedHealthcare CEO was sued by a firefighters' pension fund in March for insider trading and fraud. The suit alleges he sold $15 million in company stock while failing to disclose a DOJ investigation into the company. Read the lawsuit: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/lawsuit-ag...

Caricature gig on a day off, one caricature finished for the mail. Too many hours at work this week. And way too much chaotic dramatic shit has happened in the past week. Keep leaning into it.

I got very happy discovering my oil paints from college in my childhood home! I thought they were lost due to a bad memory but they survive. And I also geeked out finding the Weapons & Warriors essentially intact.

Potbelly pig Thanksgiving #pigs #potbelly #minipig #Amethyst

Had our first "Us"-giving since my family dynamics changed. We focused on cooking food for our potbelly pig, a special plate for the dog, and a steak and mashed potato feast for us!

Bummed I've been without car insurance for 3 weeks and not known it.

Got to draw a couple for a second year and it was great capturing thus woman and her husband and who wouldn't stop saying how much he loved her. #caricature #portraits

@albireoa.bsky.social Hello! This made my morning to see you have a pig that looks like ours! Nice to meet you! This is Amethyst, 2.5 yrs old female.

For years now, the right has been accusing Democrats of running a shadowy conspiracy to protect politicians who are sex predators. Democrats need to scream "WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?" until they force the report's release.

Thanks to the recent followers, I'll try to mostly post art as often as I can. Feeling medically down today but the recent views made me smile.
