But recently Ryan has started painting and I was very interested in the paintings they were posting.

Other people's places.

I do actually try to piece together in my head what the person might be like by what they have.

New book.

I try to make them before May 1st each year. I almost didn't make it this year. The book is available now on Amazon in ebook and paperback !

Then This Happened... Going outside again book is available now!

Do you like reading my webcomics? Well, every year I turn them into a book. It's a collection that I put together each year as an eBook and paperback.

Finished video.

I always forget about all the extra stuff to do after finishing a project.

Gas.

Yay technology!

It froze.

Heck, sometimes it even takes me days to fix a problem like this.

I've started a new vintage toy reselling channel - The Pop Culture Roadshow

I've created a new YouTube channel for my vintage toy reselling business The Pop Culture Roadshow!

Cool old house.

This actually happens a lot. Sometimes the house is just as cool as the stuff we find for sale there. 

Theater.

Theaters are the vinyl record of movies. People say they are better but they are also very inconvenient.

Random email.

I'm always curious about how people find my band's music.

No solution.

I thought they'd be concerned about the error. But apparently, not. 

Support email.

That should be all the usual responses they ask me to try.

More ebook errors.

It's saying the book needs a table of contents for chapters now. But they're comics, so I don't have those.

Neighbors took it.

I felt bad but how was I supposed to fix it?

Site ranking.

They'll keep contacting me for weeks if I don't respond.

Non-delivery.

I feel like things keep getting screwed up this month.

Overnight.

Ironically the person we were going to see had gone to Madison on the second day 😄

Approved.

But it did get approved.

Welcome back.

That would be the worst superpower ever.

Copyright.

When I've disputed claims with my songs in the past I find they just unflag it but don't tell me what caused it.
