My drawing skills are perfectly consistent, as long as the room’s the right temperature, I slept just enough, ate well, have zero plans later, my chair feels right, my internet’s stable, I’m wearing my cozy hoodie, no one texts me, and I don’t remember that one embarrassing thing from 10 years ago.

It’s like that thing where they let the penguins out to see other exhibits but it’s dinosaurs at the museum. Super thrilled with how these new A4 riso prints turned out!! Grab them at my shop or at MoCCA this weekend!

Photo of a risograph printed illustration of a dinosaur skeleton. The dinosaur is surrounded by lots of storage boxes containing more dino bones and other scientific research. The room the skeleton is in looks like a cluttered back room of a natural history museum. The print is printed in federal blue, sunflower, bright red and teal inks.Close up of the riso print from slide one. The riso texture is more visible.Another close up of the riso print from slide one.

I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"

If you have students who are trans no you don’t. If you have students of color who may be affected by ICE no you don’t. If anyone asks you gender or racial the makeup of your class you don’t have to tell them. Protect your class and protect your students by not complying in advance. They trust you.

Here is a little comic for the folks who often find themselves feeling alone. This piece will eventually be a riso zine with a poster on the back but probably not till later in the year!

An orange and blue illustration of star with a heart at the center glowing brightly in space. The title says A Litany for the Lonely. The illustration zooms in on the star. At the center is a glowing person curled up. The text below says: I will not fear my own company. The glowing star person is greeted by various spaceships and satellites. The text reads: I will cherish those around me while they are here. Close up on the star person as they pu a hand to their chest. The text reads: and when they are not, I will cherish myself.Back on earth, a man holds a star chart which includes the star person. On a cork board in the background there is a note that says “new star?”. The text reads: My loneliness does not define me. The man holding the chart is in his office looking out the window at the star. His room is fun of star posters, planet diagrams and telescopes. The text reads: I am not broken or without love. The man focuses his telescope on the star person. Text reads: I peacefully await the next bright moment of connection… Closeup on the telescope viewfinder where we can see the star person smiling at the man. Text reads: …with hands and heart outstretched.
