Proof of life. Did my good deed on Saturday and helped some folks move. I’m sore but super happy to report that at 52 I can still swing couches around without injury.

Retirement. Drawing. Hilarious.

I’m debating whether or not to re-engage on social media. The pull is real. Also, I retired from animation. I even quit teaching. I’m still learning to trust it, but I’m much happier. That’s my news.

Gorgeous. Original. Well done.

This is 100% true, there is literally no benefit to society in the existence of billionaires, and billionaire prevention is extremely easy with the political will to do it. Absolutely nobody, not even the horrible monsters, would suffer. Billionaires are nothing but a symptom of social collapse.
