As expected, February was a better month from an art production perspective if not any other conceivable metric. I don't actually know if that was expected, or why it would be expected. Despite this being a substantial bounty of drawings this is not even all of them, there's a handful that are a bit too lewd to share on this public venue, even though my definition of lewdness is not even enough to upset an online payment processor. Maybe if enough people clamor for them in the comments below I will share them...somehow.

November started strong with quite a bit of drawing, then petered out a bit toward the end of the month. I drew Kei and Yuri from Dirty Pair for some reason. Quite proud of that one. I tried my hand at drawing a character with white hair looking up and to the left, which was the style at the time. I drew Natasha a bunch. I drew Merry and Jess from Merry Hell as Peridot and Lapis from the Steven Universe episode when Peridot was most egregiously tiny. Typical November stuff. My situation has grown somewhat more tenuous in the last couple weeks so looking forward I'm not sure if I will deliver much in December. This is fairly typical for me, though, since I do most of my drawing at work and they typically close down the last two weeks of the month for the holidays. I guess we'll see!

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.

Well, that's another year in the books. This is the time of year when artists whip up little retrospectives showing what they accomplished over the last year. I've done a bit of that myself. Want to see it? You're in luck because you're already staring at it! That's right, this website is actually an elaborate retrospective work where all my favorite art of the year is collected for your enjoyment. Feel free to look around and see what I thought was worth archiving for future generations!

Another month has passed, and oh what a month it has been. I don't begrudge anyone for wanting to retreat to the realm of fantasy in the face of all this. After all, that's the only place where impossible things like "evil being punished" and "powerful people receiving justice for their crimes" and "me actually drawing a comic" can happen.

In more possible news, I did draw a good amount of art this month. Unsurprisingly, it is mostly Natasha. She does make some rather daring fashion choices, though, so that's fun. I also colored one of these, which you can see over on the gallery where finished art goes.

At the end of September 2024, beloved social media website Cohost shut down. Cohost was a site with a bold proposition: What if we start a social media site that treats its users well, one that doesn't exploit people and track people and show them intrusive ads? What if we make a social media site that has no clear monetization plan?

When they ran out of money and shut down, a lot of folks were left without a good place to post their weird nonsense, myself included. But unlike most people, myself had a backup plan. I call myself Mr. Encyclopedia because for a long time I had a website called The Encyclopedia of Pointless, where I enjoyed posting my silly nonsense for up to dozens of friends and acquaintances. Luckily, I had recently rescued my venerable old URL, eopoint.com, from the clutches of spammers and domain squatters. I had been planning to relaunch The Encyclopedia of Pointless for a long time, and now I had a motivating factor.

Running on the venerable wiki engine pmwiki The Encyclopedia of Pointless is reborn, and for the time in nearly 20 years the old "Choose your own Error Adventure" collaborative interactive fiction fever dream is back online to shock and offend a new generation of Internet.

Oh yeah also I made art.
