I bet the inventor of the gift card just couldn't think of what else to invent.

I'm about to do another 6 or 7 weekends of conventions in a row (last one is still uncertain). Would anyone like to draw my comics and live my real life for me while I'm doing this? There's lots of sex and alcohol, but also back pain and sadness.
8 days in a row of being up and working by 5am. Do I get a fucking prize?
I have a really cool piece in this that won't be anywhere else for a long time.
Anas Abdulhak - أنس عبدالحق@anasabdulhak.bsky.social · yesterdayDo you want to read some Ringo-nominated comics for FREE? We're giving out our disability and neurodivergence anthology unSeen/unHeard to celebrate the nomination. Please give it a read and consider voting for us if you like it! unseenunheard.carrd.co (Cover by @skyepatridge.bsky.social)
OK, here's my pitch. The guy who discovers fire but forgets to tell anyone so shit stays chilly WAY longer.
You know when you meet someone who you can guarantee really likes a mediocre whiskey? Turns out, that really fits this situation.
Jack Phoenix (a comics librarian)@comicslibrarian.com · 4d agoUgh, the former librarian who was fired for being a creep to women at comic cons and has stalked a colleague of mine for YEARS has now turned to trying to contact all her coworkers because she has him blocked across all platforms. 📚
I am cleaning my coffee maker for the first time to celebrate owning it for ten years.
What I love about eating a pizza is it makes me feel like I've read a book.
Less than 2 hours to go on LOVE LETTERS. You don't want to miss this one. kickrichard.com to order yours.
I swear, I meant to wait until next week to announce the next book.
Dicks By Richard@dicksbyrichard.bsky.social · 5d agoAhem...The Foreskin Awakens. Stay tuned.
It's your last chance to get a copy of my new 100-page horror LOVE LETTERS. This is a heart wrenching horror about the gnawing emptiness and the search for distant validation. Get on board. kickrichard.com
I was awake for under 4 minutes before I found 3 emails introducing new administrative headaches to my day. This is why I can't draw as fast as I used to.
Just had someone go off on me and compare AI to vaccines, so the internet is behaving as well as ever.
The SDCC Wrap Up: My 11th time at the show, my 3rd year tabling in Small Press. This was big and exhausting and exhilerating and all the things you see everyone else saying, but this time felt...surprisingly normal.
Day 2 of being at work before 5am. Finally starting to feel back to normal.
Today i'm going to see a film I haven't seen in 25 years, just to see if in the Director's Cut the continuity error in one scene has been fixed. Like, I like this film, but I'm driven by something greater than enjoyment.
Odyssey question: Would you at cheese you found in a cave? I know I would, but not if people were looking.
Disappointing to learn Fauci's diary doesn't mention me at all, while my dream journal features him so prominently.
If Odysseus really was responsible for destroying all of civilization, wouldn't at least some of his crew been Minions?
It's 5am and I'm already at my desk drawing. I might finally be recovered from SDCC.
Still mad that The Odyssey didn't rhyme. Where's that discord, poets?
I'm being advertised this shirt for men who really like excuses to fuck other men. Should I get it?
SDCC announces new cost cutting measures. next year, any former panelist has to bring back their name sign from this year's show. Hope you all remembered to take them home.
Come on down to Small Press, table O-02 to get some dicks, some memoirs and some horror.
Maybe this Cyclopsora thing is just Odyssey viral marketing.
