"Critical Pie"

Happy Pi Day!!!!

I was originally going to draw the skies being blue and cloudy, since that's what the weather was like during the Fae Picnic. But then I really wanted to capture the rainy grays of today.

"Smash That Skip"

This strip was originally going to be called "Passionate Skip". But then I found out that "Passionate Skip" already exists.

Similar sort of premise. Also includes the word "hell". Nice to see that some things stay the same.

I do wish that I drew that second panel looking more like when Fisk destroys Spider-Man in the first Spiderverse film.

The person sitting next to me is The Kinky Wizard. An artist with an Instagram that you should be following.

"Eye Aversion"

"Roll of the Audience"

I'm gonna' try something weird and see if this is successful.

I will list 4 different organizations that will influence the plot for next month's dnd strip and folks can vote on which one I should use.

Donating to one of those charities will be worth more votes. You would donate and then send me proof of that donation. Proof can be sent via DMs on social media or with an email to contactingjimmy@gmail.com.

Here's the current list:

Planned Parenthood ACLU The Trevor Project [charity of your choosing]

Donations and voting will end on February 15.

And then another list will be posted for March's strip and so on.

"First of 209"

I can't believe that I'm doing this again.

I don't have to. But I really feel like I need to.

I wonder if I'll get in trouble with today's social media guidelines.

-Jimmy Purcell.

"Scary Freeway"

I don't ever want to drive on that freeway again. I'll do whatever I can to avoid it.

-Jimmy Purcell.

"Any Way To Help"

I really mean it.

Feel free to message me on social media the proof of your donation and I'll send you the sketch.

There are plenty of gofundme pages.

-Jimmy Purcell.

"A Worse Box"

I really should've had the list ready when I posted this strip.

But I don't.

It'll be ready in due time.

I still have 2024 things to finish.
