Iβve made a number of comics related to or directly influenced by the podcast @unexplained.bsky.social over the last 3 years. Paranormal comics are so fun to write and Richardβs work on Unexplained has been a huge inspiration. Read them all for free on my website: www.amoryabbott.com/illustration
@unexplained.bsky.social whoops didnβt tag it properly above
The stories from my most recent comic The Legend of Port Chatham are the topic of the latest @unexplained podcast episode! Such a fun coincidence, I LOVE this show! podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/u...

Buried beneath the relentless rain and towering evergreens of Alaskaβs Kenai Peninsula lies the remnants of Port Chatham, a mysterious abandoned village where no one dares to go. You can read the whole comic here: www.amoryabbott.com/illustration...

As Anti-Zionist Jews dedicated to collective liberation for all people, we call for an immediate halt to the Israeli governmentβs violent escalation of war with Iran which threatens full blown regional war.
Just finished leathercrafting my first archery quiver. It was a really fun experience designing the pattern, sourcing the leather and tools, and putting my own artistic finishing touches to the carved antelope/knotwork design on the face.
Palestinians are calling U.S.-run aid centers in Gaza βdeath trapsβ and βmassacre sitesβ as Israeli forces continue to gun down civilians seeking food. With no alternative, many still risk the journey β knowing they might be shot.
A few years ago I wrote a poem about how my dad didnβt like mushrooms. It felt like a microcosm of many of our human idiosyncrasies. Eventually the poem felt like good structure for an illustrated zine, so here they are together:

There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Muskβs foray into politics accomplished.
Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

The Department of Energy just canceled $3.7B in funding for clean energy projects, including green cement.
The Trump Administration is killing investments in U.S. competitiveness, good jobs & cleaner air to support tax cuts & line the pockets of billionaires.
Ticks, fleas, and drug dealers make the same argument
Another atrocious achievement for the U.S. officials who keep unconditional arms transfers moving.
