Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who was murdered on the first day of Pride month as well as Indigenous History Month. He died protecting his trans husband. Homophobia and racism aren’t marks of the past, and this is a heart breaking reminder of that.

Praying for a safe journey back to the spirit world, Uncle ❤️‍🩹🦅

Today is the anniversary of the death of Jonathan Joss (King of the Hill, Parks and Rec). Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who died protecting his transgender husband, on the first day of Pride month. Today we remember him and how he protected his family.

No spoilers, but I'm one of your patrons and I love how dorky Index looks with his headphones on in the new page. He looks like an egg.

I've been rotating this Ask in my head and cackling since the day I got it, uncouth as it may seem. Thank you so much, and I'm glad to finally be able to let the rest of the world in on this joke.

Working on a future page today and every time I draw Index, now, I just find myself thinking, "egg!"

Since moving into the apartment, I got to experience about a month of summer that kind of enchanted me with the location and I am very pleased to have return.

Naturally there's a sense of quiet and isolation that had come with living in a HOUSE situation that was kind of calming, and there are BAD situations to be in when you are in such a weird shared space, like an apartment, too, but this one has some honestly charming features?

I have a window that faces the sunset so I have to open it up to air it out best, but when I do I get this amazing cross-breeze, the nice grilled and fried food smells from the nearby restaurants drift into my window, tonight I think one of them has live music playing and it sounds like an ambient tavern track you'd use for TTRPG sessions or something.

It's that sense of existing parallel to other people. Of being in walking distance to a place with great bar food and soft serve, and the hope that once my leg and back are on the mend I can take advantage of that proximity, again.

Cross-posting these thoughts from over on BluSky where I forget I have a tumblr that can do long-form text, lol.

I know that there's always that horrible "I could redraw this now so much better" curse when you look at your sequential art but I think that a lot of things have wound up for the better.

I started this comic mostly drawing stuff that was in my interest and wheelhouse, and that GOT me started.

There's a few really LUCKY shots of stuff that WASN'T in my wheelhouse, but I felt really passionate about design-wise. I'm now over a hundred pages deep and even the stuff that I started as SUPER interested in, I'm now drawing BETTER, and the stuff that I needed the practice on, I've practiced.

There's no real way to show your growth if all you do is cover up where you started and propagate the sort of lie everyone tries to tell themself - "wait to start your Dream Project until you're GOOD ENOUGH", etc, you know? You gotta grow with your work.

Included in the original string of posts, I had this, haha.

Anyway, like a lot of the other posts going around right now, say: start your project. You won't regret putting off the experience.

our DM @docvalentine asked our D&D party to share some additional character info that happened off table as a fun lil roleplay boost, so @kayzig and I decided to be extra and make an entire comic featuring our characters Alti & Go!

I did the inks, Kay did the colors, and we both had a lot of fun 💙 also, Alti will officially be going the single name route from now on, and dropping "Eryx" to just be, Alti

Liege Doomveil knows that you need to keep the glaive lifted up so Harbinger won't get the wiggles and get anyone within range hurt.

Alkamilla once again reminding you that she is disgusted. Ominous had never really thought about this much before it was listed as a red flag but now every time it happens he has to be like "well...I mean,"

I'm doing a little better, just a week out from my ER visit.

Other than the fear of "how much of this is my insurance going to make me pay for" fear that 99% of Americans have to go through, but, you know.

I still don't have full range of strength in my foot, but I am doing better with my pain management than I even was, like...a month ago, when I DID have the ability to go up on tip-toe on it. And, to be honest, my range of overall motion in my leg is better, so even if things aren't 100% better, they're not completely hopeless.

I'm just writing about it a little bit, here, to keep track of my feelings, keep track of stuff, etc, so I don't completely forget this strange blurry void or a year.

[liegedoomveil]

Just think of how many other one-off villains Liege Doomveil might have been dating that Alkamilla DIDN'T think were significant.

[kayzig]

I could have probably done a few more pages of ex-partner villains but my ability to self-edit won.

[kayzig]

I have kept this mostly quiet, but:

I had an ER visit, on Saturday, that evolved into an immediate follow-up concern visit to a clinic on Monday, with an X-Ray, and am now awaiting an MRI, tomorrow morning.

It's been a little rough. I am in mostly-masked pain and have pretty much no energy. They're supposed to get back to me with any results on the X-Ray sometime, soon, hopefully, but I don't know for sure what we're even treating, yet.

I am mostly just waiting.

obsessed with this sign i saw taped up outside the bat room at the zoo yesterday. the enthusiasm, the hand-written note, the bat drawing.

[liegedoomveil]

It was inevitable that at some point, you were going to have to see some of Liege Doomveil's ex-lovers...so here's Alkamilla to give some...EXposition.

[kayzig]

Repeating myself from the main site to say I am sad that this shot couldn't show King Rankine's feet which are steampunk rollerblades, I should just take time to draw him out.

[liegedoomveil]

I don't want to get too presumptive on this week's update, but that sounds like a date, to me!

[kayzig]

Sincerely delighted every time to get asks that call out and drag the cast through just the right dirt.

[liegedoomveil]

36 instances of Liege looking angry, annoyed, frustrated or otherwise upset throughout the comic. Someday I may have enough instances to do a 36 grid of him looking happy or contented!
