This last weekend Crysta and I got in the truck and made the drive down to Milwaukee to see my parents. Several family members on my Dad's side of the family had flown into town for what is, normaly, a weekend where we go to a ballgame. Unfortunately, with the [Read More]
So anyone who has spent considerable time with me has probably learned how much I love a drive in movie theater. Crysta and I started going to them when we lived in Indiana, mostly visiting the Lakeshore Drive In in Monticello (though the now-closed MELS at the Starlight in Mechanicsburg [Read More]
One of the hardest parts of being an independent creator is getting anyone to actually look at the stuff you've made. Like, writing a comic? Writing a novel? These are things I know how to do. But making things is not the same as promoting things. And I never quite [Read More]
So one of the biggest challenges for a lot of indie authors who self publish like me is getting our books in front of other people's eyeballs to begin with. One of the easiest solutions is getting real, honest reviews onto platforms like Goodreads, Storygraph, social media platforms, and online [Read More]
So I've said this before, but my intention has always been to take a break from the Mia Graves books once I finished book five. And, well, with the fifth book, The Perfect Host coming out in August (pre-order it!) that means I need to figure out what the heck [Read More]

So…wearing a short with a comedic take on why it’s not alright to burn things down that don’t belong to you because a criminal got caught is an international crime but it’s alright to use explosives to indiscriminately kill everything in a lake ??? rigghhhtttttt,..got it.
Well holy shit, I was not expecting an overt racist in the comments
Like jesus fucking christ, I cannot get over this comment.
We start with making the Musky Lives Matter shirt MORE racist than it is (it’s racist because it’s making light of the state killing black people because of a fish joke — it’s not actually intended as a commentary, and your “commentary” is a weird, fucked up interpretation of BLM).
Then you make an assumption about what Greg is talking about, which is somehow the least dumbass part of your comment — which is pretty fucking remarkable with how dumbass your comment is.
But then you finish it off by implying killing fish is WORSE than the state murdering innocent people. Like holy shit.
You have no idea what you’re talking about, your definition of ‘racist’ is completely and utterly wrong and throwing it anyone and everyone you can only makes you racist against the rest of the human race but that doesn’t matter now, does it ? Everyone has to bow to your inane definition or be accused of something you make up…please, I’ve dealt with real racism my entire life, not your pitiful attempt to manufacture something out of nothing. Please child, give yourself enough time on planet to understand things instead of just regurgitating the focus group approved catchphrase of the week…then ask the ‘blm’ crew for some of the millions they stole back, sell their mansions of you have to but try to use it for something good instead of just self aggrandizement and driving wedges between peoples instead of helping. Pity, I had hopes for this comic.
“Pity, I had hopes for this comic.”
Well I had hopes you wouldn’t be a racist asshole. Looks like we both get to be disappointed today.
Turn off the Fox News and maybe actually speak to actual black people once and a while. Fucking hell.
“What the hell you got in those things, Burt?”
“A couple of household chemicals in the proper proportions.”
Some days I’m delighted to live in an age with the internet and the vast amount of entertainment it brings. And some days I encounter other people of the internet, who I would have been content to never know existed.
Anyway, agreed, small towns are where you make your own fun.
