There are 3 versions of everything you write. There’s the one in your head, the one you get on the page, and the one the audience receives. The first does not exist, and the third is none of your business.

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

lmao my debit card number got stolen but I'm so broke I kinda feel bad for whoever took it and kept trying to ring up smaller and smaller amounts just to get repeatedly declined. Dream smaller buddy. Nope, even smaller. Nope, keep going.

Today, August 4, 2026, is the setting of Ray Bradbury’s short story “There Will Come Soft Rains” about a fully automated house continuing on after the family who lived there and the world around it died in a nuclear blast.

In the "sequels better than the original" discussion, you gotta put Honey Nut Cheerios right at the top.

it's fucked up that morning people are right. i've had a whole day's worth of errands and chores but it's not even noon yet and i feel great. What the fuck.

Folks have a lot of pet peeves with movies these days, but my biggest one is probably that an absurd number of score composers are afraid of melody. I should be walking out of a theater humming your lietmotifs, you cowards, not feeling vaguely unsettled by ambient atonal strings

Let’s be really clear about this lettuce situation: it’s not just the destruction of public health tracking, it’s also years and years of ending regulations that would have prevented conditions causing outbreaks in the first place, combined with climate change that makes them more likely to happen.

you know how in Sailor Moon it's like. if any new trendy product or shop or something pops up you're like DUDE DON'T GO IT'S A TRAP YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR ENERGY STOLEN this is how fun little social media trends feel in the age of AI 🫠

if you don't like a step of the process you don't have to do it. if you don't like inking you can use pencil lines. if you don't like super rendered painting you can do cel style. if you don't like to draw humans there's whole communities of people who are waiting for you.

Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

if you ever wonder what it's like to be an artist: you can draw your favorite drawing one day and then the next day, every line you draw is the ugliest line that has ever been created

pettiest thing I’m mad about w corporations embracing genAI is that they’ve historically always been obsessively controlling over ensuring brand guidelines are followed, but now as soon as they don’t need to pay an invoice to a human, its fine when their mascot has 3 arms

the main problem with video as a format is that it's too slow at dispensing information. I can read much faster than you can talk and there's no way you can address this without becoming incomprehensible to most of the audience.

"We use AI to generate ideas!" Oh? I use my brain.

never believe what you see when you flip your art that is the version of your art that lives in the mirror dimension

why are you as a man not out there spreading love and kindness

“This is for gooners!” Feminine sexuality and body confidence is allowed to exist and be represented without being judged by whether or not the most putrid men want to jerk off to it. Women do not exist for male consumption. We’re allowed to express ourselves FOR ourselves and each other.

new take on peter parker that his perpetual being broke-ness down not to simple bad luck but because he's a camera guy

If you got work tomorrow do not go to bed on time. Your job does not deserve you at your best

I also want to acknowledge on this fine Webcomics Day the truly unsung heroes of the webcomic world, the commenters. Thank you all so much! I don't always have the social battery to respond, but I read and appreciate every single comment on my comic!

MAMMAL BULLYING A REPTILE: Nice body temperature dude. Did the sun pick it out for you

soundwave: why keep starscream around when he keeps betraying you megatron: cuz he's funny starscream: hey did my poison in your coffee kick in yet megatron: i don't drink coffee and poison doesn't affect machines starscream: then who did i just poison? megatron: see?

my less controversial star wars take for may 4th: the lightsaber is easily the coolest fictional weapon ever created, a laser sword that you can make any sick-ass color you can think of there are many awesome science fiction weapons out there but none of them hold a candle to lightsabers

glup shittos are good, actually everyone makes fun of it but the reason star wars is the ur-shitto franchise is that the universe is so big and cool and weird that it’s really fun to tell stories about random background characters

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means? ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

ChatGPT: you’re right you’re so much smarter than him. He’s so schlubby and you’re so suave. Columbo will never catch you.
