if you care about comic book sales, then understand that you need to care about the public library before any other outlet

Wishing everyone a good week ahead. Take care of yourselves and don't give in to the fascists.

Reposting because Pizzamas only lasts two weeks…

DFTBA asked me to write another D&D game for them! It’s stuffed with jokes for Nerdfighters, but you don’t need to be a superfan of Hank and John Green to enjoy it.

$12 bucks to charity and you get the loveliest thing I’ve ever written.

Blacksky - Open Collective Decentralized social media built for community power, culture, and collective freedom.

Can we get the word around for more donations to go to BlackSky so there’s funding for the infrastructure that can bring Link back?

From my understanding:

@bfsesq.bsky.social important baseball question: are you yay or nay on the etsy witch via the mariners (i'm going to hazard a guess and say nay)

This is freaking scary because i've very cautious about this but mistakes can always happens 🫠

This happened to me today. I got an email from a verified Paypal email address about a huge charge, but it wasn't real. ALWAYS go to your browser and type in the URL of the site and check the Activity at the legitimate site, don't click from the email. No matter how real the email looks.

I think what’s most frustrating right now for Black and Indigneous people is waiting for the bulk of white folks to catch up.

At some point the “this isn’t who we are” and “I didn’t have this on my bingo card” has to end and y’all will catch up, right? RIGHT?

WE NEED YOU TO CATCH UP.

Look who’s trying to make a comeback at NYCC after getting forced out of DragonCon…

They will never learn that Frank Castle 'the punisher' fights against dirty cops. That's the point of his whole character. Stupid dudebros and fascist just don't get it *hit head on desk*

Pick one or two lanes and keep at it. You are one person and cannot do everything or take 10 actions a day.

Probably four or five - lets all not forgot Jarrod exist.

Was fortunate enough to design a limited edition shirt for Hank and John Green’s Pizzamas event this year. I was in a Lucha mood so I knew I had to draw a Pizza John Luchador for this one 😤. Much thanks to @dftbarecords.bsky.social for bringing me on board for this project. Link to buy below

Finally met the great independent journalist @marisakabas.bsky.social yesterday at the #JournalismIsNotACrime rally - and got a portrait on film!

You should follow her if you want real news. Seriously.

Happy October, y'all!

For all the snarky responses to this post:

It’s a traditional prayer —the idea of being sealed for good in the Book of Life—said during the Jewish High Holy days—which are now.

It’s a prayer, folks.

Thank you for your email. There is a temporary shutdown of the U.S. government due to a lapse in appropriations. I will respond to your message as soon as possible after the temporary shutdown ends. Please visit ED.gov for the latest information on the Department's operational status. Thank you.

Thank you for contacting me. On September 19, 2025, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 5371, a clean continuing resolution. Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in appropriations. Due to the lapse in appropriations I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume.

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats.

Hey!!! I won't be tabling at NYCC but I'll be there on Friday. If anyone wants to talk about Harley and Ivy: Life and Crimes, let's do it! Hit me up!

A friendly reminder for fellow NerdfArters to spend some time on some wonderful Alt Text for your creations!

Being inclusive and accessible with our alt-text-using buddies is super hip and ALL the coolest kids are doing it.

Anyway I promise my real name isn't Touch the Butt of Dracula, if you know of a good communications gig (I'm a great writer/editor!) or project lead position for someone who is awesome on a team and great at planning and organizing people, keep a cartoon Virginian in mind.
