I really loved Alan Moore's "I Hear a New World" (the second book in his new Long London series). The first book "The Great When" was good, but the followup is genuinely great.

I hate that every day of this presidency feels like waiting for the results of a biopsy. Just pacing back and forth in your kitchen waiting for the bad news.

Just saw a guy at the train station toss his coffee cup into the garbage and fully miss, turn around to pick it up and take a second shot, miss again from inches away and return a third time to carefully place it in the can. This man is a role model.

So if you opt out of gmail's AI slop it redirects all your junk mail back into your main inbox (despite that filtering feature predating AI by years). This feels like a particularly aggressive form of enshittification. Anyone have any recommendations for good alternative email services?

Day number 8 is the new podcast Gumshoes & Dragons. #gumshoesanddragons #fanart #inkdrawing

Day 7 of fan art is @dungeonsanddads.bsky.social (specifically season 3, The Peachyville Horror). #fanart #dungeonsanddaddies #inkdrawing

Day 6 is @magictavern.bsky.social with @arnieniekamp.bsky.social @morepeoplehappy.bsky.social and @chuntttttt.bsky.social #hellofromthemagictavern #fanart #inkdrawing

The podcast for day #5 is Maintenance Phase. This is the first non-fiction podcast on my list and my first attempt at doing likenesses of actual people: @yrfatfriend.bsky.social and @michaelhobbes.bsky.social #maintenancephase #pendrawing

Day four of fan art is Bonanas for Bonanza so I drew Dalton @showmanandydaly.bsky.social, Mutt, and Amy @mariabamford.bsky.social watching another love interest bite it on the unregulated Bonanza youtube feed. #fanart #bonanza #inkdrawing #penandink

Day 3 is fan art for The Neighborhood Listen. I tried to make Burnt and Joan look like how I imagine them in my head when I listen, not just like Nicole and @pftompkins.bsky.social look like irl (I think Burnt canonically doesn't have a mustache?).

I wanted to do @missiontozyxx.bsky.social for day two of my fan art blitz. #fanart #inkdrawing #missiontozyxx

The theme for this October for me is going to be fan art (I want to practice drawing more people and characters) and I'm starting with @rudetales.bsky.social. I suspect a lot of the fan art is going to end up being of podcasts now that I think about it. #fanart #inkdrawing #rudetalesofmagic

It has been a prolific year for album art for me. Here is the cover I did for Dan Arwady's latest album "Weight of Love". Check it out here: music.apple.com/us/album/the... #albumart #digitalart #penandink

I wanted to share some additional album art that I did for Dan Arwady's "Place That I Know Well". This one was fun and has a lot of little details to find. #watercolor #illustration #albumart #isometric

Hell is other planets. #watercolor #illustration #scifi #hell

I had the pleasure of doing some more album art for Dan Arwady's new single Cold in Memphis. I got to break out some scratch board for this one, which is always fun. You can listen to the song here: youtu.be/25MBJkPN5tE?... #danarwady #albumart #scratchboard

Can I, as a grown ass man and professional, wear cargo shorts? Because with my jacket pockets now gone as the weather warms up, it occurs to me how useful cargo shorts would be.

I had the pleasure of doing some album art (watercolor) for Dan Arwady's newest music: the album Carry With You, and the accompanying acoustic set and single release Somebody Else. I could paint birds every day and never get bored. Link to the music: danarwadymusic.com/discography-...

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

I feel bad for whoever is in charge of moderating Nextdoor this week. So many racist, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobic, and transphobic comments for them to do nothing about. That's gotta be tough work.

I know people are mad about tik tok but in more important news I also can't play Marvel Snap right now.

Rest in peace to a legend.

It's been more than 12 years but enough is enough.

Sometimes all you need is a bunch of mates to do rad stuff with #hobbitsphere

Pool Party - drawn in pen and colored with watercolor. #art #watercolor #illustration #poolparty #drawing #painting

Dragon Village. Drawn in pen and colored with #watercolor. Experimenting with using #glaze and #nightshade on #illustration work. I don't see any noticeable artifacts.

Whoever named carpenter bees missed an opportunity to name them lum-bee-jacks.

After playing far too much Red Dead I drew this Western town in #coloredpencil. #art #isometric

I tried combining colored pencil and watercolor for this #fanart for the #hellofromthemagictavern podcast. I think I fit close to 100 characters in this image. #art

This one is from a couple years ago. It's a town of retired adventurers for a #dnd campaign. This one was actually done in #coloredpencil. #art

A city scene with a bit of a #cyberpunk vibe. Another page from last year's #sketchbook. Drawn in pen and colored with #watercolor

Another page from last year's #sketchbook. Aiming for a more #children'sbook vibe with this one. Still drawn in pen and colored in #watercolor. #art

It's a #nightclub for demons in an abandoned cathedral. I call it "Perish". Drawn in #pen and colored with #watercoloer. #art

Here is a little #streetscene with a #coffee shop and a #bookstore and a #bakery and some other stuff. I'm playing around with cross section scenes.

Painted the interior of a #cozy little roadside inn at night. Taverns in #fantasy novels are always interesting places. Drawn in pen and colored with #watercolor.

This scene was done in pen and colored in #watercolor. It's not technically in #isometric perspective, but it's pretty close (and 1:2 is much easier to lay out with a ruler).

Another page from last year's sketchbook. An #isometric view of a little downtown scene with lots of hidden details. Drawn in pen and colored in #watercolor.

Another page from last year's #sketchbook. A #cozy little fantasy village scene. Drawn in pen and painted in #watercolor.
