Variation on a theme part 2

Oops I did it again (worked an additional week’s worth of hours and then some during the holidays because I have no ability to set professional boundaries and need money)

Holds up

D-money @dylanmeconis.bsky.social and I rocking the cartoonist tanks

Thanks bud!

Update: I did it

I have been looking forward to inking this

Hayley Williams new solo album isn’t very good at all but she seems really chill so 4.5/5

Thomas Massie sucks. He’s anti union, anti trans, opposed to just about everything the other side wants but he’s one of the few republicans willing to buck Trump. Every politician is a mix of calculation and conviction, and you take imperfect allies when you have no power, but to be clear he’s a ass

I’ve maybe never had a more un-self- consciously celebratory response to an onscreen message in a game
Just fists in the air, hooting and hollering, a very cool look on a dude in his thirties

I beat Sekiro last night and truly felt like I had prevailed over danger which is about the kindest thing you can say about the smoke and mirrors of a video game

I also only get to play like once a week so this victory was months in the making

Sekiro is the best fromsoft game

My life is a mess and my time is being erased both behind and before me, a controlled burn I did not start and cannot stop

I will finish my book and I will beat sword Saint isshin

The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.

This is primary and personal for me. Molly and I can barely afford our health insurance now. Absent those subsidies, we’ll likely not be able to afford them at all. What did we get for forty days of shutdown, as public opinion shifted against the republicans? Not a thing. Get fucked, @democrats.org

This is near the top of the list of reasons why we have no faith in the democrats, no faith anything good will ever happen again

Next email I get demanding five dollars, I will figure out what an IP address is, how to find one, then I’m coming over and breaking your jaw

Watching the Outkast rock and roll hall of fame performance and a.) incredible how much ground those two covered in their recording career and I’m happy we got what we did and 2.) watching like 7 pro rappers be unable to keep up with Big Boi’s flow is just more proof of his position as All Time King

My buddy, my editor, my pal and yours @cjiswingingit.bsky.social needs some of that solidarity we all like to talk about so do ya thing for as member and friend of the community

Considering there is a detailed YouTube tutorial on how to correctly do every single task on earth, you would think we would be living in a golden age of human competence. However I am starting to worry that this is not the case

Panel borders are finally here

The end is nigh

Integrity illustration by Stephen Pellnat Only The fool, fixed in his folly, may think He can turn the wheel on which he turns. --T.S. Eliot, Murder in the Cathedral I...

"Integrity" is punk-noir about addiction and moral weakness. this is one of the works of fiction that hits closest to home for me personally and that I'm most proud of. @stephenpellnat.bsky.social made an illustration for it that still haunts me buttondown.com/ChrisMJones/...

Thank you!

if you are the public defense investigator who just subpoenaed Sam Altman on stage know that i love you and think you are a wonder upon this earth.

I am within spitting distance of the end

I can’t WAIT to see how the rest of the Democratic Party fails to understand what’s happening in their ostensible base, fucks this up royally between now and next November and hand the republicans another easy victory

I have faith in you Chuck and Hakeem I really believe you can and will do this

Looking unlikely that I’ll finish the book by the end of the year. Family stuff. Thanks for anyone who’s stuck with me so far.
