Hey there folks, Alli's got a hefty chunk of this comic out there and y'all should check it out! I'm always enamored with Alli's impeccable linework and these pages are just chock full of it.

Hi friends! Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and as is tradition I will be doing a little hang-out stream starting at 2PM MDT over at twitch.tv/mattmcguig.

We will chat about The Year, the Comic, robots, or whatever folks would like to talk about. Maybe there is something you have wanted to ask me?? If so this is a great time to ask it. Otherwise, I hope you'll still come out and just say hi! Y'all really helped me get through the year.

Had our first art request stream in a long time today! Shakin' off some rust, and we had a good time! Not sure how I wanna post these in future, but this little art-card-style presentation felt cute for now!

Doin' things over in Cutebot land again! And also: the entirety of the Cutebot Calendar (all the way back to the original posts in 2017) can now be viewed—unfettered by the trappings of social media—at www.cutebotcalendar.com, which I think is real neat.

It’s been very rewarding building this super basic website from scratch, and it’s been teaching me a lot! Looking forward to making a home like this for the other things I’ve made.

Something I am working on during my break is hand-coding a really simple html website for the Cutebot Calendar to exist on. Things are going pretty good so far (it is very simple!) and I now have an archive of the 2021-2023 calendar uploaded and available to browse. I've tried to make it somewhat searchable by using bits of the dialogue for each day as its title, so hopefully if there was something that particularly spoke to you, it'll be a little easier to find!

In the midst of taking a long break after new years, I completely forgot to post the postcard we designed on our year-end stream! So, uh, here it is!
