Disclaimer: this comic is an ad for the release of my book, 'Ew, It's Beautiful' Panel one: My new book comes out today! Image of the book cover and a cartoonish crow Panel two: Buy it in a store! The crow asks an employee, Ted, of a bookstore "Can you direct me to the classic bird literature section?" Panel three: Borrow it from a friend! Ted and crow are fighting over a copy of the book in question. Ted exclaims "Hey! This is my personal copy!" Signs of altercation lie around them, his wallet and keys have fallen out of his pocket, an overturned book lies open. Panel four: Take it out from the library! A librarian is holding Ted's library card and says to the crow, who is taking the book out on loan "Enjoy your summer reading, Ted!" A computer on the desk dings with "BOOK LEND SUCCESSFUL" printed on the screen.

'Ew, It's Beautiful' is out now!

Finished a crochet project. Weee.

A big bird. #roc #rocphotos #rochester #birding

AI was a fucken mistake to release it to the public. Keep it in medicine where it can deter breast cancer or be a second set of eyes on testing during clinical trials.

Some color to feed your feeds. Dark and dreary ain’t it anymore for me. #roc #photography

More flowers. Cause why not.
At least my pictures are colorful and lovely! #roc #blue #spring

Blooming in #roc

Your dad’s cool in my book.

A yellow warbler perched on a branch says to new leaves: "Coming along nicely... keep it up!". The warbler lifts a dead leaf off of a seedling "there you go, little one". Warbler is perched on a different tree where leaves have not started to come out yet "It's time to wake up, leaves!" It then says to itself: "Good thing I'm keeping an eye on these guys"

Oh boy am I full of rage an opinions today on how people treat others differently in certain hobby spaces.

Gorgeous!

One of my faves from this year. From Mt Hope Cemetery. #birding #photography #roc

Went to Lamberton Conservatory and all I got was sweaty and sneezes. #photography #roc #rocny

Was it circuit city? No. Wait. That’s electronics.

Obligatory once in a while post on here without context.

Hopped on here to see how it’s going and woof. Already stressed again.

God. There is an endless stream of negativity on every single social media app and honestly, my brain can’t handle it.

I get it, considering *gestures wildly*. But it’s break time. Maybe some people should do the same.

Home from Miami. It was decent there.

Siri, play “Welcome to Miami”

Panel 1: close shot of a female house sparrow against a stark green background. “Winter isn’t so bad” she says. Panel 2: same shot as first panel. “It gives me time to take risks in my art” Panel 3: a square canvas made out of bark is fixed to a tree trunk. On it we see a full self-portrait of the sparrow. Dried leaves and sticks and seeds form its body. A piece of farfalle and a purple flower serve as accents. Assorted sticks and cigarette butts make a fashionable border. Panel 4: sparrow is in foreground with her eye closed in artistic expression. “My most haunting work to date” she says.

Winter isn’t so bad #oldknees

The refs sucked a little but also:

Big on 1 & 2 😂

It’s because she’s not a baby anymore and people stop caring when baby animals grow up.

Don’t make me tap the sign.

Maybe Bills fans shouldn’t have hung a Mahomes effigy from a tree during their last game…. Idk. Just a thought.

You should probably tag Allen too.

I am absolutely obsessed with these colors and that beautiful logo and ughhhhhh.

So I get the pressure.

The roast was fantastic! And yes, honestly a good game in the end is great, I’m with you on that one for sure!

And oh no WPA. I lived in Philly for a bit and that was 😬😬😬😬
