- "Okay, how many museums do I need to build for people to forget I helped cause The Johnstown Flood?" -Andrew Carnegie (probably)
- I've started making two versions of my pixel art moons; one version in full color, and one in the Gameboy pallet. It's fun figuring out how to downgrade the color and the results are sooo satisfying. #FullMoonArtChallenge #FullMoonArtChallenge2026
- Well, the Adobe Animate thing won't mess me up too much. It's not like my animations recently made an impression on the local indy film scene or anything. (Looks back at my own life.) Dang it.
- Oh, No! I won't ever be able to adjust the animated backgrounds for Aria Kart!
- My best animated short, made in 2014 on Adobe Animate. I have exported versions and saved all the assets, but the thought that I won't always get to poke around the timeline saddens me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR0m...
- I still have an archive of student animations from my 10+ years as a digital art instructor. Should I start converting these files before Animate is unusable? Every so often, a student contacts me and asks if I still have their work. I don't want it all to disappear.
- Me: Groundhog, will we see an early spring, or six more weeks for winter this year? Groundhog: Six weeks of winter. Groundhog: Also, Adobe will be discontinuing Animate. Me: WHAT?! Groundhog: Yeah, it was one hell of a shadow.

- I think everyone who worked remotely last week must have been called back to the office today. The streets have far less snow, but the people who didn't have to drive in the worst of it are wildly underprepared for what they're facing now. I passed two separate car accidents on my way to town.
- My niece's art for February's installment of the Full Moon Art Challenge. #FullMoonArtChallenge #FullMoonArtChallenge2026
- My nephew: There are 26 letters in the alphabet. Why the heck did math pick the same letter for both “multiply” and “unknown number?” The kid has a point.
- Okay, I might get cancelled for this, but I don't care, I need to speak my truth. I don't like calling a cat's paw pads their "toe beans." "Paw Pads" is a much cuter name. it has alliteration. Also, "toe" isn't a very cute word.
- There's a full moon tonight! Here's my piece for February's installment of The Full Moon Art Challenge! Pixel art of The Snow Moon! #FullMoonArtChallenge #FullMoonArtChallenge2026

- Me: I'm sorry, I don't actually know anything about Darren Aronofsky Internet: Parts of his movies ripped off Satoshi Kon and Kon felt bad about that. Me: On my shitlist forever. Got it.

- My first comic was #1 and my second comic has achieved both the #2 and #3 goals.
- There's a new Lepus Rabb- Wait, what's this? I've decided that the last Friday of each month will feature a cat instead. Don't worry, the rabbits will still be the stars, but I sometimes get pose ideas that feel more cat-like. Guest Cat - "Paw Prints" #LepusRabbitGuestCat
- Looking at my 2026 replies for convention appearances: 2 "no's" 1 "yes" 2 "waitlists" 1 "we're still deciding" This is a fun season to plan for.
- Well, we never lost heat or power during the snowstorm, so I charged all those emergency devices for nothing. "Well, you should probably charge them from time to time anyway as a precaution-" NOTHING!

- Something I yelled while arriving at work today: "For pity's sake, ground crew, clear out the parking garage entrance! I can't squeeze between these snowbanks like I'm driving through some car-shaped Amigara Fault!"
- Safety reminder: If you do laundry a home, make sure the unusually heavy snow has not blocked your dryer vent.
- Conversation with my mom Me: I just heard Sal Buscema died. Mom: What did he draw again? Me: Super hero stuff for Marvel Mom: ... Me: They named a fistfight layout after him. Mom: Oh, that Buscema!
- When we're young, we're told: Be open to criticism, no one improves without it. When we're older, we're told: Not all criticism is valid, use your judgment. We're not told often enough: People can use harsh criticism as an acceptable way to bully, so protect yourself. All of this is true at times.
- I got waitlisted (not rejected) by Anthrocon. I'd love to keep selling art there, but that show's already been pretty good to me. If they want to give someone else a turn this year, that's fair. I'm seeing a lot of artists getting excited about their first AC table and I hope they all find success.

- Maybe reposting some cute snow/winter rabbits will make the day less bleak. 🧵 #LepusRabbits
