Replying to @Hezbolsonaro
Like man I am genuinely very sorry if your experience is different but post-middle school locker rooms I have never spent much time around vocally misogynist crowds. Yeah of course they exist but you don't have to join those circles!

They’ve introduced the acronym SHAPE (Social Sciences, Humanities, and Arts for People and the Economy) due to the success of STEM and it doesn’t really work because “women in SHAPE” sounds like a comment on our bodies.

New level of Catholic guilt unlocked: the pope wants to know why you haven’t finished that draft yet.

Chalkboard is the font of cowards. If you want to use Comic Sans, just own it and use Comic Sans. No half measures.

Emi Gennis @imemi at last year's @CXCFestival pointing out what makes BAD comics lettering (& good comics lettering too). The spacing inside the balloon is something I think is especially overlooked by a lot of creators. A very informative presentation. youtu.be/amqj-pCGF9w
