For Day 22 of #October I wanted to try something with gradients. I don't normally use the gradient tool in my work, but I think I see ways to make it look nice. This octopus is a sticker. What do you think? Pretty cool, huh?

I know a lot of people have been looking forward to this, so for Day 21 of #October I'm happy to present to you, a Dumbo Octopus, scientific name "Grimpo Toothiss". Here I've drawn them saying "hello" in their octopus language.

It's now Day 20 of #October and I'm exploring abstraction. It may appear simple, but today I wanted to see if I could capture the noble octopus using only a single brushstroke, without pauses or pivots. This actually took me several tries to keep my hand steady through all the curve.

Parents, please check your kidsโ candy this Halloween. Iโve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription โQUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now Iโm haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

But I would not judge anyone self-IDing with that term.

She wears a purple sweatshirt with a yellow "stitch" pattern going down the sleeves, and has apparently drawn a golden-armored knight standing on a cliff with billowing clouds and night stars in the background. She is labeled "illustrator" and says "It took me 10 hours to draw this!" Panel 2: Shen points at her with his right hand, a manically smug expression on his face and the other hand on his hip. He is labeled "comic artist" and says "HAH!! Just ONE drawing in 10 hours??" Panel 3: Shen continues speaking, pointing at himself with his thumb. He says "I'D have to get like TWENTY drawing done in that time." Panel 4: Behind the still-smug shen is a slouched, deformed, horrible beast of a man with a drawing tablet in one hand and the other hand holding the pen, and also strapped to a plank of wood for wrist stabilization. It wears only a ragged loin cloth. The neck is long and extends far forward, and the hair is wild, going in all directions. In the darkness of the face two small eyes glint. This creature is labeled "animator"

An AP investigation found that more than 420 anti-science bills attacking longstanding public health protections โ vaccines, milk safety and fluoride โ have been introduced in statehouses this year, part of a campaign to enshrine a conspiracy theory-driven agenda into law. https://to.pbs.org/43dxCkD

A letter from Jordina Shanks, CEO of Fenway Health, addressed to the Fenway Health community. It announces that due to new federal requirements effective October 1, 2025, Fenway Health will no longer provide medical gender-affirming care (hormones and puberty blockers) for patients under 19. The letter explains that this change follows a revised U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Grants Policy, which allows termination of grants that โno longer effectuate program goals or agency priorities.โ Continuing the service would jeopardize Fenwayโs status as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). The message emphasizes that this decision was made with great difficulty and does not reflect a change in Fenwayโs values or commitment to the transgender and gender-diverse community. It details how staff have worked to support affected patients and families and reaffirms Fenwayโs ongoing advocacy and inclusive mission. Highlighted portions stress the HHS policy change, the risk to FQHC status, and Fenwayโs continued belief in and support for gender-affirming care.
Fenway Health just sent this message to all of their patients. They are lying to their patients telling them that cessation of gender affirming care to trans youth was due to a change in federal regulations. This is a lie. No such change was made to regulations. This was Fenway complying in advance.
