This art features 100 bees of various colors and shapes.
These bees are designed in a cartoonish style, based on real species. The common name or species is written below the animals.
Some bees are moving leaves, scraping plant hair, or sticking out their tongues. Some male bees have hairy faces and unusually shaped legs. There are also baby bees that have just hatched from their petal nests.  Cute and colorful atmosphere. There are over 20,000 species of bees, so I only depicted a very small fraction of them!

Schumer: ball’s in your court

Republicans: stab the ball, tear it apart, set it on fire, rip up the court and sell the turf to Bahrain

Schumer: hey you guys are out of balls

Republicans: we’re gonna kill your families

Schumer: ok we’ll pass funding for new balls but you’ve GOT to read the rules

Just a quick update from the Twin Cities. (Please forgive the unsolicited message). THINGS ARE NOT BETTER IN MINNEAPOLIS. The media is mostly moving on, Trump is focused on other stuff, BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED ON THE GROUND. More than 2,000 DHS thugs continue to roam the streets, abducting people 24/7, assaulting legal observers with impunity, and routinely denying 1st, 4th, and 5th amendment rights. Drones and helicopters are overhead every day. Hundreds and hundreds of terrified families have not left their homes since mid-December ... relying on the community to bring them food and help with rent and other necessities. (Those people are NOT violent drug cartel sex offending murderers, as DHS would tell you. Most are legal residents or citizens.)  If anything, things have just become more stressful and intractable (think trench warfare as a suitable metaphor): The resistance is better organized and numerous, but DHS has become more clever and better at disguise... and the county sheriff's office is increasingly supporting them . Do not let anyone tell you that Homans (the new person in charge of the occupation) is making anything better. Do not let anyone tell you that 700 ICE agents leaving the city has made much of a difference; the remaining force (again, ~2,000) is still larger than the entire city's police force (which is legally unable to do anything). Please call your congressional reps ... especially if there is any chance the administration might listen to them.

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

The thing about dogs is they can’t watch commercials or get credit cards, so all dogfood is ultimately designed to appeal to *people*, not dogs

Which is why I’m launching my new dogfood: “cat turds and small sticks”

If I walk into a business and the owner’s kid is wandering around bothering customers, 100% I am shopping there for the rest of my life

Even better if the owner is just a little bit rude to me

That is a sign of a quality establishment right there

Three panel comic. Panel 1: gym setting. One guy sees another guy across the gym with huge muscles. He remarks, “whoa! That dude is yolked!” Panel 2: a girl working out next to him says, “ugh, why do guys even want to get that big?” Panel 3: the extremely jacked guy is walking away with a slight smile. He is imagining himself dapping up a group of huge gorillas who are all happy and smiling, accepting him as one of their own.

"IN OBSERVANCE & SOLIDARITY". Two black speech bubbles with white text read "HOURLY COMICS DAY IS NOW ON FEB 8TH. CARTOONISTS HONOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH. FEB 1 - MAR 1". There is an illustration of a black silhouetted hand raised and holding a pen in the top right, and an illustration of a nib pen and an ink well personified on the bottom right. The nib and ink are bumping fists. A URL at the bottom is "hourlycomicsday.com".

Hourly Comics Day has MOVED!

It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st!

Sometimes people use "respect" to mean "treating someone like a person" and sometimes they use "respect" to mean "treating someone like an authority"

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say "if you won't respect me I won't respect you" and they mean "if you won't treat me like an authority I won't treat you like a person"

and they think they're being fair but they aren't, and it's not okay.

Hot take: All of our long-running comic strip character designs were frozen in amber at the exact wrong moment.

Since VW stopped making the Beetle many years ago, the opportunity to do a “Punch Buggy” has become vanishingly small

So I have a proposal for a replacement I’m calling “Moron-Mobile,” where every time you see a cyber truck you shout “Moron-Mobile!” and punch the person next to you

@kiwi-ghost.bsky.social , @crispystar.bsky.social and I made this little short for Cartoon Recruit's animation jam, but we went a little overtime and missed the deadline 😅 So here it is now in all its glory- the theme was Doot doot! 🎺💀

Me: No solo cartoonist should be expected to draw comics with the same detail level and complexity as comics created by multi-person teams. We should accept less intensive methods and results more readily for them.
My brain: Except you tho
Me: Yeah, except me
