A page of Valentine's Day doodles featuring characters from my webcomic And Another Lovely Day.

Doodle 1: Naomi and Zarina take a selfie together. Naomi holds a gift bag and a little heart-shaped chocolate while Zarina holds some pink flowers behind her back. Behind them reads, "happy valentine's day!"

Doodle 2: Nora and Elliot chatting. Nora looks distressed as she holds her phone; Elliot nonchalantly eats chocolate while reading a book, with a mountain of Valentine's Day chocolate behind him.
Nora: "They released some new Valentine's Day merch for Spica Strike!, but my fave isn't included in the lineup!!!" ("I want to see her all cute in pink too!")
Elliot: "Wasn't she already in last year's Valentine's Day goods?"
Nora: "She was, but--Hey, you're dropping so much chocolate into your book!?!"

Doodle 3: Isaac and Grier look at Naomi and Zarina. Isaac looks confused and Grier smiles a little sadly. A comment next to Isaac reads, "A person who hasn't figured out his feelings yet". A comment next to Grier reads, "A person who thinks their feelings are unrequited".
Isaac, thinking: "Huh...? I feel kinda... dissatisfied for some reason...!!!"
Grier, thinking: "It's nice to see Naomi and Zarina having a good Valentine's Day..."
A box below them: "SECONDARY COUPLE WHO IS SO DYSFUNCTIONAL THAT THEY GOT SKIPPED OVER FOR THE VALENTINE'S DAY ART"

🌟💖 Happy Valentine's Day! 💖🌟
I'm swamped with work atm so all I could manage for Valentine's Day this year is a silly doodle page--but I missed posting about the And Another Lovely Day characters!!! #AALD #AndAnotherLovelyDay #art

chibi drawing of Makoto Kurume and Yuzuki Murashige from "Skip and Loafer" sitting against a bright pink background. Makoto braids Yuzuki's hair for her. Yuzuki sits on the ground with hands in her lap, blushing and smiling happily at Makoto. Two dark pink hearts pop up in the space between their heads

a drawing of Yuzumako from "Skip and Loafer" as the "I'm Not Like Other Girls" meme. In the first half are two side-by-side panels, the first labelled [Other Girls] and showing Yuzuki and the second labelled [Me] and showing Makoto. Yuzuki poses prettily, blushing and looking over at Makoto. Makoto, not noticing her, stares straight ahead dully with her arms crossed. In the second half, Yuzuki leans out of the frame of her [Other Girls] panel to grab Makoto's face and plant a kiss on her cheek. Makoto is pleasantly shocked, blushing furiously. Hearts pop up from both of their heads.

two black and white bust doodles of Makoto and Yuzuki from "Skip and Loafer". Makoto has a flustered expression, her cheeks rosy. A small heart crops up to the right of her face. Yuzuki, to the right and below her, smiles with sparkling eyes. A small heart crops up by her left shoulder.

some old yuzumakos i love #yuzumako #skipandloafer #skiptoloafer

How To Help if You are Outside Minnesota Last edited January 22, 2026 I’m going to assume that if you’re reading this, you more or less understand the situation in Minnesota and I don’t have to explain it to you! That sa…

If you’re outside of Minnesota and you’re wondering how to help, this guide is excellent.

And seriously. Take down your Ring doorbell TODAY.

Just before Christmas, I got a puppy.
Her name is Minerva, and we call her *Minnie.

I'm still learning how to understand her.

Me: Do you need to go outside? Do you need to go outside, little baby? Do you need to do a poo?
Do you need to do a widdle piddle?

Minnie: Arf!

*I just call her "little baby" most of the time.

I'm also realizing I can't turn off the baby talk now.
Nobody tells you about that.

I got so lucky with my first puppy.
Her wonderful foster parents had her completely house-trained by the time we adopted her, so taking her outside for potty time has been pretty easy. I've got the puppy poopy routine pretty much down, now.

Me, putting on my coat: Let's see... I got the little poopy bags, puppy treats for bribes, jacket, scarf, phone… I think that's everything… Oh yes! And my passport.

I had been carrying around my passport for a while, but I knew it didn't matter. This is wrong. Nobody is required to carry around their papers.

I became a US citizen when I was seven. Since I was born in a refugee camp, I was stateless.
The US is the only nation where I've ever held citizenship. It's the only passport I've ever had, and it still felt important. Protective.

I would hold it in my pocket like a talisman, like it might ward off ghosts or something. But I realized I was holding onto it basically out of superstition.
ICE will pick up anybody.

I know that.

So I tucked my passport away.

And I largely avoid leaving my house.

I live a few blocks just South of George Floyd Square. I was in the neighborhood for that, too.
And all the neighbors came together to protect each other. We're already organized.
We'll do our best to get through this.

Me, to my dog: I hope I can take you for a walk someday soon. Won't that be nice, little baby?

Abolish ICE. A little journal comic from South Minneapolis.

Chimera Comics Collective A webring, for webcomics

A lot of us have actually made a webcomic ring called Chimera Comics after we left hiveworks: chimeracomics.org

This isn't the full list as some artists want their hands completely washed of the situation, but this is a start!

Hiveworks artists have dealt with SO much over years of mismanagement, and they need your support. There's a "How You Can Help" tab of their statement that calls for supporting affected Hiveworks artists, spreading the word, and perhaps, most importantly - reducing speculation!

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

This is also why we should practice solidarity between different forms of art, with regards to Gen AI, and refuse slop in all its forms, at all stages of the process. According due respect to other people's work - the same respect we'd like accorded to ours - that should be the goal.

Zoomed in photo of my New Years omikuji, with the fortune for love being “Give it up.”

I got my actual omikuji (it was only a little bit better 💀 ) and it had the funniest fortune I’ve ever received on an omikuji

- Slow Horses by Mick Herron
- Real Tigers by Mick Herron
- The Family Fang by Kevin Wilson
- Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice
- Book Lovers by Emily Henry (Truthfully this prob belongs in the tier below but I'm gobsmacked by how much more I liked this than any other book l've read by her)
- Exhalation by Ted Chiang

Just okay: Kind of forgettable or "This time my issues with it actually did get in the way of my enjoyment"
- The Grownup by Gillian Flynn
- Graveyard Shift by M.L. Rio

- The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun
- Dead Lions by Mick Herron

Not for me :/

- You'd Look Better as a Ghost by Joanna Wallace
- Happy Place by Emily Henry
- The Keeper of Lost Causes by Jussi Adler-Olsen (For all the other books in this tier, my feelings are more like "This didn't suit my tastes" or "I think this missed the mark on what it was trying to do"--but I just think this one is Bad!!)
Rereads: The Queen's Gambit by Walter Tevis, Tom Lake by Ann Patchett, The Secret History by Donna Tartt, Today Will Be Different by Maria Semple, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

And here's the whole list of the books I read/listened to in 2025, organized into some very subjective tiers (the order within each tier is just the order in which I read them)

I'd like to read more nonfiction and fantasy in 2026!
