Here’s the new 24 hour comic I drew this year! This one is called THE KING’S FOREST. cw: blood, violence
How the fuck did you make that last panel say so many things without using any words at all that’s so fucking cool.
Moche necklace with gold beads in the shape of toads (1-800 AD) | Museo Larco – Lima, Peru
I love how extraordinarily modern this is and how it’s from more than twelve hundred years ago
People Like Frogs And Always Have
btw the Moche was a pre-Inca culture in northern Peru. they also made incredible pottery, including portrait vessels with realistic facial features:
personally i find this type of portraiture much more satisfying (and historically valuable, in the context of how people actually looked) than a lot of two-dimensional art. how incredible that they’re still with us today.
(the Moche also made erotic penis pottery bc people everywhere are just Like That)
i don’t know what you honestly expect from me
sometimes I tweet about the funny/cute/utterly bizarre shit my 3rd graders do and say
the latest dispatches from room 156

why do they always show cranberries in thos big pits n its implied its wet and possibly swimmable. do cranberries really grow like that. wh
You’ve never heard of The Bog?
th
the what
This is a cranberry bog (unflooded) it’s how cranberries grow. Once they’re ripe, the blog is flooded and the cranberries harvested.
Basically by using big floaty things to round them all up and then scooping them out of the water.
thank u. i hate it a little less but the horrible little man in my head is still screaming “BOG BODY BOG BODY BOG BODY”, but i appreciate the education,
oh here is a fun lil perspective on cranberry harvesting i never heard about anywhere else. the guy who owns the restaurant right down the road from the farm, who fries our chickens sometimes, is from Boston, with the strongest Boston accent ever, and in a former life before he started slinging reasonably priced barbeque and occasional organic chicken, he was a cranberry farmer.
His farm was on the leading edge of kinda using organic/sustainable pest control methods, and one of the things that they did to keep insect damage down was that they encouraged wolf spiders to live in the cranberry field, to eat the bugs.
This was all fine and good until they flooded the bog. Now, you don’t just like flood the bog and then go around it in a boat or whatever. No, you use hip waders to get in there and put the big floaty things where they go and get all the berries and such.
Well when you’re in the bog in hip waders, that makes you the tallest thing. Wolf spiders can swim a bit, but they don’t like it, so they’re, quite understandably, looking to climb out of the water onto a tall thing.
So yeah the first interview question he always asked potential cranberry bog harvester hires was “are you cool with spiders?”
“You’d be amazed,” he said to us, shaking his head a little, “how many guys would just straight lie. Like, you think I’m asking you that question to be cute? Nah man you’re gonna have like a hundred wolf spiders trying to climb your eyebrows, you gotta be chill, those wolf spiders are fellow employees. You really gotta be chill with spiders if you’re gonna work a cranberry harvest.”
A rambling comic I made in class instead of paying attention
Remember that time Pink Kryptonite randomly turned Superman into a woman and he was just all ‘It’s cool brah’ and continued punching baddies?
I cant believe superman has a magical girl sequence
Superman, in his normal deep voice: “I can work with this.”
[continues curbstomping]
I like that they kept Superman Buff even as he was Sailor Superman

I don’t know what we did to deserve Mr. Rogers but I’m so glad we had him.
At the end of the day
