i’m not an artist, i’m not an illustrator, but a stupider third thing: i’m a cartoonist

painted some guys today

Also, Canada, I love you and hate this ridiculous made-up horseshit that we're supposed to be enemies now because the world's orangest weirdo said so.

today my 1453-day streak in Duolingo ends, never to be picked up again

Ohhhhh look! This is such a lovely picture from the Festival of Books this weekend!

Authentic NYC-style pizza is the best.

I can't even remember the last time I was excited and enthusiastic for something some techbro insisted was The Next Big Thing. They are FULLY out of ideas. It's just scam after scam, now.

Is it Hot Take O'Clock already? Well, okay, if you insist. Jalen Hurts has more integrity and courage than the entire Los Angeles Dodgers organization. I'm Wil, and that's my Hot Take. Please subscribe for more Hot Takes!

Happy Birthday @TheKateMulgrew ! You are a treasured artist and dear friend! With love, Roberto.

Don't worry, House Democrats. I'm sure the Leopards you just unleashed won't eat YOUR face. 🙄

just sketchbook stuff

Do I know anyone who is willing to play me the Godzilla 1954 theme on piano(or toy piano) at half speed for like $50 and credit on a very stupid puppet project? It is a silent puppet film where Godzilla fights Paul Bunyan.

I voted even though this election is cursed

Congrats to Canada for being less stupid than us

Just had another long-simmering pitch get rejected today so tapping the PLEASE HIRE ME sign yet again

my agent fwded me this email which a) is a wildly inappropriate & disrespectful thing to ask of an artist b) exploitative of your child. i had words.

💀 DR. PHOSPHORUS 🔥

My kids told me that I should draw more Naruto characters— and who am I to argue with their sweet li’l faces? So, here’s SASUKE UCHIHA!

Next week at @bookedevanston.bsky.social’s second ever Hot Moms Night, I’ll be drawing guests onto their own PokeMom card! It’s almost Mother’s Day, so I’m gonna catch em all! www.eventbrite.com/e/hot-moms-n...

The best part is, this is an actual New York pizza and the source of the photo is the New York Times. For real. You’ve been double-gailed!

I can’t remember where the Star Trek character of Scotty is supposed to be from.

There's the old myth that the artist has to suffer for his/her art? Why? The act of creation, of molding something from the clay of the imagination, is a joyful one. So play, have fun. Creativity shouldn't be an invitation to suffering, it should be a release from it.

Got high fived by an old lady at yoga about the election lmao

The great thing about the NDP is that the people who show up for them to work on campaigns, those who vote, really believe in positive change for ordinary people and they want to work for it. They are not cynically aligning values with the bigger parties, they have goodwill, and they care.

Here’s a Johnny Canuck to celebrate Canada’s victory today! You did good, Canada 🇨🇦

THE LAST OF US but it’s Beanie Babies.

*picks the DVD lens cleaner disc from the Criterion Closet *

Little Nemo in Slumberland by Winsor McCay from April 29, 1906.

Indie creators: I am asking for your advice. Feedback and critical reception for It's Storytime has been real close to 10/10, but the audience, while slowly growing, is smaller than I expected. How are you promoting your work, and ensuring its potential audience knows about it?

Got a new box that makes guitars go brrrrrrrrr

Sometimes I just want to read some Charles Addams

What bait? There’s no anchovies on NYC pizza.

All tanks have been cleaned, also some baby tortoises got fed and were cute, except for Greg over there.

was going through old files and discovered this as the sole contents of a folder named "jay_no"

Recently George Lucas spoke about why Yoda speaks backwards: "Speaking regular english people don't listen...I had to figure out a way to get people to actually listen, especially 12 year olds."

I added a few ink drawings (including this one) to www.tomgauld.com/art-for-sale

Considerately do your part today, kindly please!

Hey, look what's not a secret anymore. I lettered this for @tonyisabella.bsky.social and still get EXTREMELY EMOTIONAL whenever I remember it exists.

Need 2 dairy products to beat the shit out of Mr. Beast. Any volunteers?

What I don't understand is how the quote-unquote Metaverse is any different or better than the average MMORPG, some of which have been around for 20 years now, and all of which feature exactly the same stuff the Metaverse purported to offer plus cool music and better rendering

Doctor Who fans will know Ben from Gallifrey One, as a genial panel host (part of the Game of Rassilon and stepping in to replace me on game shows) and all round good person. Please pitch in and help if you can. #DoctorWho

I just did an autobio comic, so I can do this! Colors by the great @robinfasel.bsky.social. I should draw me more.

Sometimes I just wanna read some Flash Gordon

Ah, the Blackshirts stage of creeping fascism has arrived

I've gotten lots of DMs and NGLs saying I should apply for asylum or just stay and so on and I gotta say: Folks, that ain't how it works. Believe me, I am not particularly thrilled to leave. But as much as it FEELS like it should be easier to stay out, it unfortunately very much is not.

From Prague to LA now back in the UK. Playtime is over. Time to get back to the business of play.

So I was supposed to stay on Twitter and get harassed by the people who turned it into a right wing echo chamber in order to prove to the people harassing me that I’m not in a leftist echo chamber? What I don’t get is why I would feel the slightest desire to prove anything to those people

❤️

My first animation credit. Can you guess the show? I didn't know I was getting a credit and I didn't see it until I came home from an extended night out drinking at around 10 am. Turned the TV on, saw my name and passed out. Someone sent me this screengrab recently. I got a hangover looking at it.

Book announcement coming later this week

launching tomorrow at 12noon Pacific!!

the reason America has fallen on hard times is they stopped showing one 1️⃣ cartoon before the feature presentation at the cinema

(In crowded sports bar playing the Warriors game) hey can you turn on the Canadian election results?

Today is the birthday of writer Paul S. Newman (April 29, 1924-May 30, 1999). A veteran of WWII, he is credited in the Guinness Book of World Records as being the most prolific comic writer of all time.

Welp, bought my ticket to fly back to the States next month. I knew I couldn't just stay in Scotland forever for a dozen different reasons but HOO BOY is this gonna be stressful

Today's been shit so I'm winding it down watching the best Star Trek movie

@fabercastell.bsky.social my go-to favorite brush pen for years has been the PITT size B. I’m fine with the slightly shorter length of the barrel, but is there a reason the new ones are have a shorter, duller & rounder tip? These are pics of old and new side-by-side. I’m not loving the change :/

ProgCore Fantasy. Still time to back it. There are tiers still available. Get in on the Dark Age of Theer. www.progcorefantasy.com

The Germans probably have a word for the complicated knot of shame and pride you have when walking along a path, and a string of runners are coming the other way while you're carrying as many reduce-to-clear boxes of Creme Eggs as you can physically hold.

my art is not an invitation for a writing prompt as these are my characters with their own stories. thanks

Relatedly, I think it's okay for me to say that I'm absurdly proud of DC Comics as a company for publishing both Jenny's story and publishing DC Pride as a whole. You've seen the world out there. They could've stuck this in a drawer. But it's not just rainbow capitalism; DC is doing what's right.

It’s great that every meal in France comes with roughly one hundred pieces of bread

a new greatures: it's a short 5 page Bit called "Last Place kicks a can". It's can-on, lol. greatures.com/comic/last-p...

friendly reminder that no one likes a pedant

Yes, Colleen carefully manages her online presence because she has OCD. Management is better than believing the anxiety will all go away if you just have thicker skin. Here is what it's like. colleendoran.substac...

So weird that people don’t want to hook up with Nazis

I poop old school/ I’m a turd Luddite Sit upon a porcelain throne/ that’s airtight

Wilford Hamilton “Captain Billy” Fawcett, born on April 29, 1885. A veteran of the Spanish-American War & World War I, he started the bawdy humor magazine, Captain Billy's Whiz Bang, in 1919. Fawcett Publications expanded to include other magazines, and eventually, comic books. #Shazam!

This is how I won over @phoenixforce.bsky.social

it’s super cool being a transmasc parent who transitioned as an adult and then became a parent because I get to spend literally my entire life being erased from my own experiences thanks to other people’s gender stereotypes

Saw near Bristol. Magnificent.

It's always Miami Vice and never Miami Virtue

I am very okay with the toddler playing phone games, because their attention distribution while playing is generally around 25% interacting with the game vs. 75% describing the game to us.

What an industry we work in, where Diamond gets accused of exciting new crimes every morning.

I am thrilled by the fact that the Disney+ ads in my social media feed here in Korea don't mention Mickey, Star Wars, Marvel, or princesses. They hype their acquisition of my nephew-in-law's directorial debut Handsome Guys (the Korean Remake of Tucker and Dale vs Evil).

He did this and then left his passport at our apartment on the way to the airport; my father-in-law is a man of mercurial meticulousness.
