Did you remember? Did you remember the 21st night of September? Did you remember to wake up when September ended? September is a month for remembering many things.

One year ago, Cohost shut down. In the wake of this highly unsurprising development I was compelled to bring back The Encyclopedia of Pointless. This year, I was yeeted off Tumblr merely for posting hundreds of lewd anime images. Well, joke's on them, now I have my own website for posting lewd anime images. I shan't share it here, but ask and you shall receive.

Speaking of asking and receiving, I asked myself if I was up to drawing anything in the month of September and I received the following images from myself. It's not much, but any art is better than no art in these dark days.

August happened recently, or so I am led to believe. Weird how time seems to progress in a linear fashion even when all this other stuff is also happening.

Art also happens despite everything else going on, and that art, such as it is, has been collected here. You may notice Lyn among the artworks on display within, she is a character owned by the lovely Alex who can be found Here, Here, and presumably, Colorado. Check them out, they're really nice!

July is traditionally the month when one deals with an overwhelming feeling of self-loathing, right? It is hot an miserable and everything about having a human body and existing in the material world is a terrible curse? Well anyway over on Bluesky and Mastodon (the only two social networks worth a damn) I have been engaging in a Summer of Art where I try to make people look at various drawings I've made over the last few years. I've made a lot of art. Even the archive on this site only goes back to January 2022.

Speaking of archiving my art on this site, I've done so for the last month as well. It was pretty light, art-wise! I did finish two more comic pages which as of this writing have not been uploaded. I should probably do that as well. They deserve to be posted.

You may have noticed, though statistically speaking you have not, that the comic is rather behind the update-every-friday schedule. Now I know it's traditional for webcomics to have a post that says "I'm working to catch up!" with no further updates at that point but I actually am trying to catch up and since the actual workload involved in drawing these comics isn't insurmountable it's fully conceivable that I can catch up and continue posting them on schedule.

This has been a bit of a better month for me, art-wise, I feel like I'm climbing out of the inexplicable spring doldrums and ready to produce more of the art I crave.

Well friends, we've reached the end of another month, which in turn heralds the start of another. I dunno about you, but I have been feeling the psychic pressure of all this to a greater extent than usual. My pep has popped, my verve has swerved, I couldn't even really enjoy this year's Mad Ape Den. There may be some delays as my capacity falls behind my commitment.

In the meantime, please enjoy the attached atworks that I have helpfully drawn over the course of this month.

In the month of April I spent a significant amount of time not making art, but rather making progress on my other website, The Encyclopedia of Pointless. A long time ago some weird friends and I made an equally weird interactive story called Choose Your Own Error Adventure and now that story has been once again made available to the public. I figured out how to import from the old MySQL database I had saved to the wiki engine the Encyclopedia runs on, and completed an initial editing pass to make sure links worked and tag the many, many entries that need to be rewritten. With any luck I will be able to enjoy doing the rest of the rewrites and making it a weirder and harder to navigate dreamscape will take approximately the rest of my natural life.

Lest you think I am neglecting Dimestore Novel, well, I suppose I am a bit. As of this writing the comic going up May 2 is the last one I have in my queue. With any luck I will be able to squeeze at least one more out before the Friday after that. One benefit of updating once a week is it's not a terrible strain on my time, so if I find myself in the right situation I will hopefully be able to knock something out, even if it means abandoning some of the more complicated panels that I had planned. Anyway, what I meant to say in this paragraph is there is Dimestore Novel content in The Encyclopedia of Pointless if you know where to look. I've started filling in some lore details over there, not to mention Johnny Wallbank who will shortly become an important part of both sites.

Now finally, I have some images to share with you that I drew in the month of April 2025. These include a fair number of cute Natashas, a couple of Evangelines, and yet another attempt at a design for Johnny Wallbank. Please don't let me forget to draw the error hunting Adventurer and Bozo Nineteen in the future. I want to add more fun illustrations to key pages in Choose Your Own Error Adventure.
