Time for a new pinned post! I'm KB Spangler, an indie author who creates comics with my partner-in-crime, @alepresser.com Our current #comics are comedy science fiction & fantasy (FAMILY DEMONS) and fantasy (SIDE QUESTED), because reality is being a bummer and we need more joy.

The other day I drove a friend back from the airport and the whole way we talked about how impossible it is to be a woman with ADHD while also managing...everything. About halfway home we realized there was a pumpkin sitting on my windshield.

Look, we are all TRYING OUR BEST

My dad left cucumbers on my mom’s hood when he was gardening and forgot and my mom didn’t notice and drove a good distance. My dad called her and she was so confused and looked, sure enough 1 or 2 were still there.

You buy a tiny black pumpkin at a farmers' market and then a year later the compost pile starts spitting out tiny black pumpkins and I'm not helping my case here, am I.

It's time for the Halloween Baking Championship finale! Will it be Lady Power Lifter? Lady Dark Humor? Bland Fellow who Blands? Or Youngling Who Somehow Escaped Anakin?

It was a small black pumpkin about the size of a cantaloupe which I had picked from the garden and just...kinda...put on the lower part of my windshield...like ya do.

I have SO many questions, so I'll lead with the most important: ...this was a TINY pumpkin, right? RIGHT???

We're dropping the first 34 pages for Halloween!

🚨 ATTENTION EVERYONE 🚨 This is not a drill! Family Demons, the new webcomic by @kbspangler.com and myself, will start publishing every Friday, free-to-read, from October 30th! 👟💫 familydemons.com

Me: I did the math! Ale: You did NOT do the math. Me: Well, I did the math wrong but I still did it. Ale *walking into the sea*: ‘kay

I remain convinced that “couchfucker” stuck to JD because we could absolutely believe it but it can’t stick to Vivek because the couch must have *some* standards.

Ohio candidate for governor Republican Vivek Ramaswamy is attempting to reframe his controversial ad featuring Democratic opponent Amy Acton’s estranged mother as protestors have started gathering at his events. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/10/25/r...

Yacht owners will be living in a Far Side cartoon where the whales are all “Hold on, these things just crumple? Have they been like this the whole time?”

andré carrington@andrecarrington.bsky.social

I kind of love that both sperm whales and orca have got the memo about attacking yachts. Imagine the little antifa orca clique finding out somebody from a different *species* thinks your tactics are not only justified but commendable? And it's not humans? There's no way they're going to stop

Hey fam is it a good economic sign when the brunch place that’s usually packed tighter than a sealed can of mixed nuts is half empty?

We are getting tree work done asap this week as one of our trees has decided to become an imminent threat to a neighbor's house. We had to do uncomfortable math on insurance premiums versus a one-time outlay for tree work.

Rick Ansell@rickansell.bsky.social

I have a quiet worry that, as far as Tree Service work goes, people will call them in later for unsafe trees. That not only costs the customer more but generally puts the people doing the work at more risk (which is one reason it costs more).

goooood morning it is cold and wet and dark but that didn’t stop us, tho only the most determined of crows were out to share our snacks - and even tho it’s not my favorite weather by far: Lucy Loved That Walk

Hear me out: Not JUST Sebastian the crab, but that flamingo who adds a two-word duet to “Kiss the Girl.”

She’s here! My girl is finally here…ish. This is actually the Peony my husband ordered. Mine still hasn’t shown up. But look how cute she is with her little cup ‘o death!

We all need to make a pact that we're just going to log off. Just get tf offline until the adrenaline high fades as otherwise we won't be fedposting, we'll be fedbaiting, possibly fedfluffing or even fededging. Fedging.

I do wonder how the mods are going to handle the volume of celebration if It Happens before his term is up

“Boys will be boys.” Still a huge problem. Still a mountain’s worth of work to be done. But there’s so much more awareness that no, boys are both taught and permitted to be “boys” and so many parents are working to raise healthy thoughtful boys instead of entitled little assholes.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

What on EARTH did you do there, spellcheck? *ahem* “Everybody’s amazing Peonies are ARRIVING but mine aren’t here yet!”

*starts beating shoe on table* CONSEQUENCES CONSEQUENCES! CONSEQUENCES!!!

Hey Elon, I have a message for you. Representative Jim Himes

jfc I'm listening to yet another pollster describe the reality of polling in this environment and I'm begging everyone to ignore the polls and just go vote.

K.B. Spangler@kbspangler.com

Really comforting to listen to pollsters tell us that their entire industry used to be based on math but now it's just witchcraft and vibes.

Pollster: We know nothing. Every method we've used to collect data is in some way significantly compromised, and gambling websites spin that data for profit. We might as well be poking at sheep entrails under the full moon. Interviewer: But the Dems are up, right? Pollster: Oh yeah no doubt.

There's being sick and then there's being slimy disgusting sick, which is just stacking on the insult bonuses. Oh, you want to feel like crap AND spend your day covered in your own goo? Have you tried Flu™? It's like Cold™ but extra-sticky!

You take the thing that you dropped on the street with you to bed. You put the thing that's sat on the grocery store counter with the raw meat up to your face. Just a teeny squirt of diluted rubbing alcohol across the case and buttons, it'll be fine.

Peony is landing! Look at our beautiful girl! And...whatever that sociopathic thing beside her is.

@kbspangler.com @alepresser.com Someone arrived today. So I immediately decided she needed company.
