One of my favorite traditions is hourly comics day on February 1 - I’ve been doing them since 2016 (you can find them on my website) and I really value having a snapshot of that day every year, and looking at how I and my life have changed.
Thank you so much for coming to France! I was really happy to be able to "meet" both of you irl (honestly i was not expecting any of you two to ever do signings in France :')), and I hope you enjoyed your time here.
Take care of yourselves, I hope you're ok now even if things are scary back in the US - and again, thanks to both of you for your art. As a queer person in those scary times, your work really brings me comfort and hope, and a desire to create and tell queer stories myself. I feel like I lack the ability to properly express this in English (and maybe even in French?), but queer art is so, so important and it really is something that helps me keep going even when everything else feels dark.
I have been following your substack for quite a while (and hourlies before that!) And only just taken a moment to realize that I could like and comment on this thing....your comics are a wonderful bright spot amongst work emails and bargain codes and they never fail to brighten my day. Thank you, seriously.
It's always so lovely reading these, it makes me feel so much less alone in how horrible everything is in America right now. It's nice to have older queer people to look up to, especially ones as awesome as you guys! I've been reading you and Nate's books since I was a kid, Nimona being one of the reasons I was able to figure out who I am (a chaotic shapeshifter, obviously) my copies of Nimona and the Witch Boy are literally falling to pieces because of how much I've read them and leant them out. I've never been able to make it to a book signing, I live in a place nobody really comes for such things, and being a broke college student I have little money for travel, but I hope to be able to meet you guys some day, and get my books signed! Hope you're doing okay in this failing nation, thaw care of yourselves!

Yay testosterone!!!
Really loved your update about this comic conference in France! Wonderful tattoo. Yay for goo! <3 Thanks for all you do. *all the hugs*
That was delightful to read, I did laugh at the wrong party! But also it is a sad time here in the US. I hope for better times ahead, some day.
Just curious, why have you started testosterone?
Because I wanted all the effects :)
Would love to see more comics about your testosterone journey!
You could say... BUTTERFLY EFFECTS. :D
...I'll see myself out.
