This video is sort of a subtweet about some art twitter discourse. But I wanted to respond in video form rather than in written form so that you wouldn't misinterpret my words. Also not linking the discourse directly because I don't want to dogpile on the inspiration for my thoughts. But here are three ideas that I wanted to share with artists for us to keep in our brains as we go into the new year.

I don't think I can finish one piece of cheesecake let alone 20. Gah!!!
Thank you all for chiming in with the mobile survey. I've already implemented a handful of changes. A majority of you didn't quite like the swipey mc swipe function so I've recoded that bit so that the full comic shows up on the mobile version. You can pinch and zoom to get a better look at the comic if it's difficult to read on your mobile. Some of the other changes I want to make might take a little bit more time. But thank you, everyone!

You know, we’re having a jazz funeral for that dead mall on the Pike.
