been thinking a lot lately on what it takes to really sustain a movement. I think USAians expect protests, boycotts, and letters to be met with instant results, and when this doesn't happen, there's helplessness, burnout, and the movement is quietly dropped...

as we approach the year of the dragon, the hydra comes to mind.

over 30,000 innocent Palestinians are now gone, on our tax dollars, with no end in sight. now more people than ever realize that our representatives do not represent us, or care to. we are financing our own destruction, and we are running out of time.

so what does it really take to build a new world? who do we need? drawing on those who did it best (the global south truly has all the answers), these were my conclusions, but please tell me if you have any notes.

all I know is that our feelings of helplessness are by design. we cannot do it alone. it will not happen overnight. when one head tires, there must be two others to take it's place. happy early new year. we all have a role to play. which one are you?

love how this couple portrait turned out :)

A commission for Dave - thanks again Dave!

Happy #makeaterriblecomicday2025! Please make a comic! It’s mandatory that you create some piece of sequential art — what it is and how you make it is up to you! Have fun! You might as well!

If you make a comic (again, it’s mandatory) and you want to share it, post it on the tag #makeaterriblecomicday2025! Or don’t, I’m not a cop.

Remember, the goal is to make something terrible! So if you can’t draw or have never made a comic, or if it’s been ages since you made something just for fun — that’s perfect! You’re all set! If you fuck up and make something that’s NOT terrible… well, some might say there’s joy in that too.

these are images from a 1930s pamphlet that endorsed kudzu, entitled "stop gullies: save your farm"

It was disturbing to say the least.

"when forced to choose between old lady and child, which is more ethical for the car to hit?" Fence around train track. Nobody on the road.

"people with disabilities preventing them from driving themselves can be independent" Yes but also. Train.

"the technology is not yet price effective for the average driver" Train.

Hi, this is my unicorn centaur oc!

I wasn't sure fully what to do with her coat colour when I was initially designing her because I usually draw unicorns with white fur, but it doesn't make a lot of sense for her fur to completely lack melanin because she's Black, but I thought maybe she'd have sort of a golden colour for her fur because perhaps one of her parents is a gazelle centaur or something and they have more golden fur

I was trying to think about how the human features like curly hair would interact with the non-human features like tail fur

I was also trying to draw the hair more detailed because in the past I've tried to communicate afro textured hair in my art just by drawing a wiggly outline around the shape of the hair but that didn't look as good as what I did this time
