Two panels of a longer comic titled "Robot team steerco". We see a team gathered in a conference room, and then a close up of one nervous-looking product manager saying "so, we made some pivots..."

This week's Lowered Techspectations is a double feature - one comic and one advice column! Check it out: buttondown.com/LoweredTechs...

Op-comic: What I learned from a banjo (and a frog) When I felt too low to make friends, an instrument challenged me and showed me how to take risks.

Today the @latimes.com published a piece I created with @emenez2.bsky.social! I'm so pleased with how it turned out. Many thanks to editor Philip Gray.

It's time to embrace climate conspiracy Trump’s Venezuela oil play exposes what climate reporting has documented for decades—if we’re willing to say it out loud.

Excellent article by Emily Atkins. Sometimes, conspiracies are real. open.substack.com/pub/heated/p...

Cartoon of a man walking two small dogs. The man has stopped to look in a bakery window, and one of the dogs barks that the man is " very food motivated"

Who needs an emotional support dog when you could have an emotional support cookie? 🍪 Jk I need both. 🐶

I had a fantastic time last weekend @smallpressexpo.bsky.social ! Thank you so much to the organizers. SPX puts wind in my sails to keep drawing comics and keep going even when it is hard. Thanks also to my table mates @ghostlysloth.bsky.social, @jadepagecraft.bsky.social and @ruemxu.bsky.social ❤️

Op-comic: A personal case against eliminating the penny President Trump said he would direct the Treasury to stop making pennies. I immediately thought of my late grandmother.

Today, @emenez2.bsky.social and I have a piece in the LA Times Op-Comic section. She wrote it and I made the drawings. I'm really pleased with how it turned out! www.latimes.com/opinion/stor... @latimes.com

Cartoon of two women getting ready to go out for the evening. One woman is slumped in a chair, saying "Extrovert me made the plans, but introvert me woke up this morning."

It's me, but joining a new social media platform!
