Funny you mention that -- there's literally no receipt. Congress didn't ratify Ohio's constitution in 1803. It was an oversight, but it means that Ohio was technically still a territory up until 1953, when legislation was passed that retroactively granted Ohio statehood in 1803.
“3 AM” giclée art print It’s 3 AM in suburbia and someone is still awake. A silhouetted cat sits on a windowsill behind open blinds peering out at a mysterious nighttime world. This is her favourite post in the house. From here she can look out over the expansive lawn and clipped hedges. Her humans have long since gone to bed. There is streetlight shinning on the house, hedges and lawn. She’s hoping to see something - anything - move about in the shadows. She listens intently for any rustle in the leaves, snap of a twig, or scampering over the grass. For now, all is silent except for the faint rush of a passing car. The night belongs to her. I've drawn this in ballpoint pen in a very fine, wispy cross-hatching style trying to achieve that vague, mysterious tonality seen at that hour. I take a lot of walks late at night, and this is a home l've passed several times, complete with the lit window. I always imagine a cat sitting there, and the beauty is that I can make it so. This is a companion piece of sorts with “The Yearning for Adventure”, also available in my Etsy shop.

I get so irritated when I see big accounts on here sharing someone else’s work without giving them credit

So? WTF does that have to do with anything. Tell me, why is this persons alleged sexuality relevant to the topic at hand
“That guy doesn’t have a deep voice — my gaydar is going ballistic” isn’t something “staunch” allies say
Spider-Man was the first web-comic.
This is pervasive in Columbus, too. Drivers will pass me in the school zone and honk, like I'm the asshole
Those scorpion textures are so crunchy! I love it
Small complaint, but it's inaccurate to say the Gammon House "was one of Ohio’s only stops on the Underground Railroad." The network was extensive in Ohio - there were something like 20 stops in Columbus alone. Here's a map of the routes through Ohio:

“Anthracite Deer,” graphite and charcoal powder on paper. A drawing of a deer in an Appalachian forest landscape with a smokestack where its neck and head should be. The smokestack is belching out clouds of thick, black smoke.
I got a job creating coal-powered wildlife for the regime.

to add insult to injury, the creator of this graph didn't put reddit on the top row even though it has the greatest number of respondents who somewhat + strongly disapprove and the fewest who approve, and now I'm annoyed that the graph doesn't flow evenly from top to bottom
If you are run out of town, we will be able to rescue you by following your footprints. Because Columbus doesn't shovel its sidewalks.

The good news is that independent booksellers are making a comeback:

Have a feeling everyone visiting Columbus for the games will instead remember seeing all the cars that Columbus drivers crashed into buildings

Oh no, I’m going that too, I wonder if we are canceling out each other’s efforts
Hilarious that this image has a credit line because 1.) it’s utter garbage, who would want to claim it, and 2.) ai images can’t be copyrighted
Thank you, Blue!! I refuse to get bifocals. Mainly because I don't want to pay for them when the other option is to simply take off my glasses
Top row, pic of me wearing glasses & squinting at a blurry sign. Bottom row, pic of me removing my glasses and now the sign, which reads “You’re 46 today (and you need bifocals)” is no longer blurry
It was summarizing my work emails and getting basic facts wrong. They weren’t even long emails — maybe only 3 or 4 sentences
And because nothing motivates me more than spite, I spent a few hours this weekend deleting all those unread emails that were dumped into my inbox. Felt satisfying to do the thing google bet I would not do
I turned off smart features, which means the promotions & social inboxes disappeared and the 72,000 unread messages in them were dumped into my main inbox. I know google linked those features to the ai garbage so people wouldn’t want to turn it off. But I hated the ai overview so much.
I missed seeing the rehearsals. So much of what I like about the show is how it offers a peek backstage so we can see the process of putting a drag show together. We didn’t get the usual pre-runway werkroom banter among the queens either
I did not know that! Oh no, I'm about to go down a rabbit hole, I fear
A graphite and colored pencil drawing on paper of a yellow and green seahorse perched on the couch from the painting, "Portrait of Madame Récamier," bt Jacques-Louis David.
A drawing of a woodpecker peeking out from a hole in a tree, which is emerging from the torso of a woman wearing an elaborately-decorated dress and ruff from the Renaissance.
A graphite drawing of a woman from a Neoclassical painting, wearing a wig and draped in a shawl, sitting beside a rural landscape showing a river valley. Above the river floats a Mothman-like spirit with glowing eyes.
A drawing of Krampus, dragging chains shackled to his wrists and carrying a satchel of twigs on his back, entering the foyer of a fancy house. He looks down the hallway at the viewer, letting his long tongue hang from his open mouth.
It's another #portfolioday ? Hi, I'm Brian. I have 2 portfolios, in fact -- a digital one and a traditional one. Here's a sampling of my traditional work.

A digital drawing of comic book characters Orick, a Sasquatch; Leona, a mountain lion; and Argyle, an extraterrestrial, rowing across a pond at dusk toward an island with an old church on it.
A black and white digital drawing of comic characters Ursula, a human person; Orick, a Sasquatch; Argyle, an extraterrestrial; and Leona, a mountain lion, walking down a set of underground stairs in a cave-like environment. Ursula leads the group with a flashlight.
A digital painting of Orick, a Sasquatch wearing an orange scarf and carrying a hot drink of some kind, walking between some trees and saying "boo" to classic movie monsters Nosferatu, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, and a werewolf, who cower in fear and run away.
A digital illustration showing a Sasquatch reading a book in his cave with his friends, a mountain lion asleep next to the fireplace, and an extraterrestrial laying on a rug watching The X-Files on an iPad. The cave is illuminated by the fire in the fireplace, candles, lamps and glowing crystals. Above the fireplace is a framed portrait of a Sasquatch ancestor. In the background is a bookshelf and a staircase.
Hi, I'm Brian, and here's my digital portfolio for #portfolioday, which comprises mostly of my webcomic "Orick & Argyle," about a Sasquatch and an extraterrestrial who team up to commit acts of civil disobedience in defense of nature.
