<MASS> Hey everyone. It's been a while, I know. I'll spare you the apologetics (but still give a heartfelt thanks for still reading this, if you are): seems like everyone just finding how to hang in by skin of their teeth, and (aside from having this here
MINNEAPOLIS IS MY HOME Obviously, I've been struggling to write here. For quite a while, it was the free-floating confusion and terror that we're all inundated with on a daily basis. But now, that's all changed. Because it isn't abstract, anymore. Not for a while,
S (eattle, ORT RUN, WAM) Hit a trip out west, been home a week, now (FINALLY finished packing up all the LOW posters for the benefit; thanks to all of you. Some will get them imminently, but the final batch goes out tomorrow, thanks for your patience. I will say– this mailing list got first
SIGNED LOW POSTERS/ Doctors Without Borders BENEFIT UPDATE 10/24/25: SOLD OUT (Way quicker than i thought: thanks all) So, I drew and designed these posters for what would (unfortunately) prove to be the final Low tour, in 2022. Letterpress printed them at my old gig at (unfortunately also gone, now) Studio On Fire. Some folks
CONRAD I'm going to set aside my shame at how long it's been in between newsletters lately. I haven't known what to write that I haven't written numerous times already. Shit is utterly off the rails. And it's been damn near
PKD/ RED TV It's only now, on this 2nd go-around with the PKD book, that I'm realizing some of the reasons I'm doing it again. Some are the same, some are different. As I progress (and it's been slower than I'd like)
MORE NOT TERRIBLE THINGS The whole stated goal of this newsletter was to a) find a better/ more human way of communicating/ get off social media, and b) be able to share things that are keeping me sane, in the hopes that it'll do the same for people that are not me.
NEW PRINT FOR SUBSCRIBERS ONLY (get at me) As a thanks for reading this thing for 6 months now, I drew this and made a print of it, JUST FOR YOU. Only printed the amount of subscribers I've got here, and not making more or selling them anywhere else. As I've already written in
YOU'VE GOT TO LIVE, QUEEN That last post really took it out of me. But look, here we are– it's an actual Wednesday. In the spirit of "hey, look at not shitty things, sometimes!", here's some stuff that's come through the shop, again. I designed and printed
MORE WHY I’m not going to lie, I’m still in the thick of digging through/ re-evaluating the PKD/ Pink Light book. And it’s ramping up. More reasons to finish than not, still. Between that, trying to keep on top of the print shop, get my shit together in
PINK LIGHT (really? Yeah, maybe) A couple posts ago I went into the whys and wherefore my nervous breakdown: one very large piece was the shuttering of a huge book project I’d been working on in earnest for some years: a 200+ page comic book biography of Sci-Fi/ Surrealist writer Philip K. Dick
SHOP WORK I know, no post last week. I know. Trying currently to cut myself the same grace/ slack I try to for everyone else (I’m not good at it). Like living in a god damned blender. But look at all this cool shit I helped make happen. I feel like
MORE SOUND It’s been a minute since I put some sound on here. This one pretty short, but I like it, and want to do more along these lines: it does almost nothing and goes almost nowhere, on purpose. It just rides it’s own rails. So, put it on repeat
MORE JOURNAL COMIX/ hassle addressing last week’s was heavy, and there’s other things to say about it, but…maybe later. In the meantime, here’s a few more pages from the 2024 comix journal; I like these pages from the opening slots I did with/ for Steel Pole Bath Tub in the PAC
SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE Hard to believe, right? I know I didn’t post last week. It was brutal, and I couldn’t find a way to address…things that didn't feel like turning the screw. It’s sort of a rule, for me and this newsletter. Turning the screw in your
SPENDING BLACKOUT FEB 28 I’ve been on social media much less these days, but when I first heard about this, I thought it was solid stuff. I’m not incredibly well versed on how it’ll work (you might know more about it than me), but the beauty seems to be that you
KEEP WORKING I’m starting to feel like a broken record—- here’s this shitty thing, here’s this one. All true and real— and frankly, unmanageable. Skating between “holy shit utter collapse” and “life goes on” is an all-day job. The fact remains that you have work to do. When
MONEY, MEET MOUTH ($2.50 tier and a scary experiment) Have another piece reacting to some, uh…current events. But it’s tricky and needs a bit more time in the oven. Friday maybe? In the meantime: I’ve been running this for almost 3 months now, and…I like it. Thanks to everyone who is subscribing/ reading. I know
_U_K Like (I assume) just about everyone reading this, I’m pretty shell shocked at the moment. Things are moving fast, hard, and brutal. In fact, I don’t want to write my little newsletter at all. I just made the mistake of going on FB for the first time in
DRONE NOT DRONES (one week late) There was no post last week. This is, as they say, a bummer. Let’s just say that both life events and events in the larger world put me back on my heels, a bit. My intent was to write a post ahead of the Drone Not Drones event, here
