Your ol' pal Les McClaine - commissions open!

I set up a regular shipment of four boxes every three months. I got one shipment and then they cancelled it

My cookie subscription got cancelled. I guess they're not making Hydrox any more :(

I'm a little surprised I ended up 92% Green and 91% Working Families. I vote Working Families in local elections a lot, and the Greens a little, but the Greens keep running grifters in national elections

cartoon spacemen always carry laser guns. But our actual astronauts almost never carry laser guns. Makes you think

“Comics are not a serious industry”, exhibit no.132: NO SALES CHARTS.

In a business where every publisher demonstrates an apparent allergy to making money by simply not even promoting books half the time, there is also not a mechanism to collectively track the sales of said books 🙃

There's a guy in my neighborhood who fixes water heaters so I'm hoping I can get him to come out tomorrow

I wish things would break in a way that I know how to fix

Oh, good, my water heater isn't working and I can't relight the pilot. The thermocouple is clean. The gas is in the lines. I think there's a problem in the control box

Ha ha! Diabolical!

I'm super excited for this only because it gives me the opportunity to make him fall madly in love with me, break his heart by dumping him on his birthday, then marrying Emily that same day the next year to completely destroy him.

Yeah, I've got three projects in the fire now. I'm not looking for anything more at the moment but if you've got something amazing I'm sure I could be convinced!

I'm trying to restructure my career and I'm hoping to have an income again in 2026

Since we're talking money in comics again, I know I'm an outlier but I managed to average about $50K from 2013-2023 doing comics, animation, and freelance illustration. I flamed out and haven't made any money since

what I wouldn't give for that sense of focus now

I read the dictionary when I was in fifth grade. One of those paperback Merriam-Webster ones. I think I mostly did it to see if I could

At least lawless wars of aggression in the middle east don't affect oil prices, the primary driver of inflation in the US

Etta's so cute in that panel!

They just wouldn't work!

Frankly, Emily deserves better.

I can fix him. But if I choose not to I don't want him to be happy

I really hope, though, that he and Emily don't get together if you don't marry one of them. I like that he's obsessed and she's uninterested.

So I hear Clint will be romanceable in the new Stardew Valley update. This is good. I voted for this
