So full of woe!!!

Oh no! Do you have the serial number? Post flyers! Sometimes they’re ditched nearby. Bummer, I’m sorry.

A painted pink, black and white sign that reads: To Do Build community Shop small and local Speak up and speak out Practice empathy Protect the vulnerable Give to good causes Care for the earth Be brave and loving Investigate Read and listen Abide no fascism

I found a big sign at the thrift shop with some live/laugh/love stuff on it, so I painted over that with my to-do list. Feel free to make it yours, too.

(above images of the Target, Amazon, and Home Depot logos that have been crossed out) We Ain't Buying It Target Companies This action is taking direct aim at Target, for caving to this administration's biased attacks on DEl; Home Depot, for allowing and colluding with ICE to kidnap our neighbors on their properties; and Amazon, for funding this administration to secure their own corporate tax cuts.

Between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday, join us in hitting pause on buying from corporations that enable Trump’s fascist agenda: weaintbuyingit.com?utm_source=i...

This is incredible

Thank you.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the child I was at 15.

Flyer for a “Chicago cryptids” group art show opening at howling pages comic shop, nov 14 from 5-9. The graphic is a Northman atop an L train.

I’ve got a minicomic collecting all four issues of my annual Halloween comic in this show! The MEGA MICHY collection, about the Loch Mich Monster, Michy! Come check it out!

Thank you, yes

THANK YOU. It’s exactly the color the ear/muzzle would be if it got less sun.

That’s what I thought too, but we have never known him any other way. He was gifted by a teacher in his current form.

A stuffed bear with a distinctive area of its torso that is lighter and shorter-furred than the rest of it.

Option 1: the bear has been shaved or removed its fur shirt, leaving its torso bare. (Get it?) (The stuffed bear has had nipples and belly button drawn onto it, digitally)

Option 2: the bear is wearing a shirt (The iconic Milton Glaser “I ❤️ NY” logo has been drawn over the light torso area of the bear)

Option 3: the stuffie is actually a human being in a bear costume that is missing the top part. (A human figure has been drawn over the bear body to indicate where a human figure might inhabit it as a costume)

My kid has this bear that I refer to as “topless bear,” which infuriates my kid because they insist that “it’s wearing a shirt!” So I put it to you: what’s up with this bear?

We’re sceerd of them

Yay! Thank you!

The cover for “Searching for Wocks” by Lucy Knisley, featuring a small child in a yellow hooded coat, crouching to pick up one of many small objects scattered across the cover.

My new picture book, Searching for Wocks, is out June 9! You can preorder it now!

This book is about the joy of discovering tiny objects, and the beauty of what turns up on a toddler’s pockets!

A cozy conversation with an old friend on Monday, for a crowd of 1200+! @goraina.bsky.social came to town with her new book, Facing Feelings, and we had a chat about it, about comics, being comics buds for 20 years, and snakes. You can read more about it on my patreon! www.patreon.com/cw/lucyknisley

A graphic that reads: Hey ICE, get out of Evanston. We do not want you here. Stop trying to terrorize our community and go away, you pathetic losers.”

Yesterday, on a holiday where kids go door to door connecting with their community, my sweet town was terrorized by government-backed thugs. Our schools locked down. We patrolled the streets, warning vulnerable people to stay inside. Helicopters circled incessantly. ICE get out.

Oh my gooooddddddd tell them hi from me

Ooh well done

I’m so jealous of your grapevine television channel.

Lucy is dressed like Alice Cullen from the twilight movies (the baseball scene) and is attempting a very badly executed high kick pitch stance with the aid of her friend Abby holding up her foot

Get ya some buds to go to the re-screened movie from 16 years ago, who will support and assist your very specific costume that will be the *only* costume anyone is wearing at the theater, and therefore the best.

Coming home the other night: I was feeling’ not great, but then I glimpsed an angel in my very own tree!
