Hey I hope everyone's having a good holiday season (I mean despite 2020 being, 2020)

Before the year ends I'm putting up the first chapter of my comic here again but in full as a year end treat, if you want a copy of the pdf you can get it at https://gum.co/VAkuwp payment is optional.

As I've said, Navigator is deeply personal work written during a rough personal time in 2019, and drawn this year in the midst of... everything. It was nice to finally have this first bit done and out.

Who knows what 2021's going to be like, personally I'm just glad I got to see today, not many were as lucky.

This was heavy to write and even heavier to draw, all the same I'm proud of how it turned out and I hope you all get to read.

I'll take this post down once I start on Chapter II next year, who knows, when I finish all of it, might have it printed. Here's hoping.

Anyways, Happy New Years friends!

I wish us all the best going into 2021

cheers~

Six years later, with my pet Steve-the-African-tree-frog, I headed off to grad school, a four-thousand-kilometre drive. Late on the third day, I was stopped for speeding. It was starless dark and the officer used a flashlight to approach our car. I had my license out. Steve was on the dash in his Ma...

DOWN to EARTH

DOWN to EARTH

"If we really educate ourselves, listen and feel what's happening...How did we get here, how does our treatment of people and creatures show us what we need to learn about ourselves? This is the indigenous wisdom the people need to focus on." Stan Rushworth, a professor of Native American Studies and an elder of Cherokee descent.

On Trees as Social Creatures and Fungi as the ‘Fabric of the Forest’

Today's read.

'Trees were once viewed as individual and solitary organisms, competing with other trees for resources. But the forest ecosystem is supported by mycorrhizal networks: an underground fungal web through which trees exchange carbon, water, and nutrients and communicate with one another.

“It’s a vast, ancient and intricate society,” writes Jabr. “There is conflict in a forest, but there is also negotiation, reciprocity and perhaps even selflessness.” It’s a fascinating dive into the social life of forests, and you will never look at trees the same way again.'

Trees were previously seen as individual and solitary organisms. But the research of Suzanne Simard shows otherwise.
