For this one, the symmetry tool in Procreate was a lifesaver, the eyes are a bit dodgy and I have to admit, I originally planned an intricate kimono pattern but got bored halfway through... I still wanted to post it because not everything *has to be perfect* and I really really like how the simple purple kimono turned out...

Romanticizing life,

I was following the gps on my phone to a destination and it told me I had to cross the road. It was clear, but all of a sudden so many cars started coming. So this guy standing outside of a restaurant saw me looking back and forth waiting for an opportunity to cross.

After a couple minutes he came up to me asking “you trying to cross the road?” And I responded “yea”, So he then said “ok I’ll help you” and we cautiously walked together and he was telling me “it happens all the time don’t worry, when they see you crossing they stop and let you pass”

We saw a Lexus slowing down for us, so he pointed out “like this one… Oh he was about to stop but it’s alright we’ll go after this one”. 2 more cars passed and it was finally clear so we jogged over and while turning around to go back to the other side he said “now you have a great night” so I thanked him, “thank you so much and you too”. I was so flustered and thankful that he helped me, He didn’t have to but out of the kindness of his heart he did.

So I just had to blog about it because I was feeling super defeated & sad that I was late to a rally and was so far yet confused on where I was going. Ended up going to the wrong place and not being able to show my support at the rally today but because of him my day is a lot less worse :)

Hi. My name is Ken and it’s been like four years since I wrote one of these. Don’t get it twisted, though, I’ve eaten a shit ton of pizza.

A lot has happened since the last slice I wrote about. My mom died. That fucking sucked. There would be times where her meds or her depression, or both, kept her from answering my texts and calls. Usually never longer than a day. I’d always get worried but she always ended up being fine so I kind of got desensitized. Her physical and mental health were both getting worse. I’d come by every week or so to take out some of her things trash or drop off meds. Her hoarding got to making her place nearly unlivable. Anyway, like two days went by and I got a bad feeling. I ended up going over there in the morning and…yeah. She was gone. I found cigarette packs and apparently despite being on a breathing machine she was still smoking. Doordash drivers or neighbors were getting them for her I guess. Official cause of death ended up being “complications from COPD exacerbation.”

Part of my grieving process has been travel. Once to Martha’s Vineyard with my friends. She used to tell me how much she loved a vacation she had there. It’s part of, if not the, reason she loved lighthouses. I feel like there’s so much about her I never got to know. Our relationship was rocky to say the least. When our dynamic became me worrying about her and taking care of her I got resentful. I think she did too.

The next place I traveled is where I am now - Ireland. She was so proud of her Irishness. Growing up she’d talk to me in her silly attempt at an Irish accent to make me laugh. The last few years she was an active member of Irish Facebook groups. She never got to actually travel here, though. Her anxiety about travel was so bad I’d doubt she would have been able to handle a plane. Anyway, I never left the country before so I got my passport and decided I’d see it in her honor. That’s how I ended up at Coke Lane Pizza @ Lucky’s in Dublin.

I should have anticipated that counter sliced would be rare to nonexistent. I can devour a pie of this size easily, though. And I did. I think I cost like €10. How many US dollars is that? Hell if I know. I can barely do simple math or tell which way is left and which way is right as it is. I’m constantly trying to do conversions and navigate in a backwards ass car on backwards ass roads. It’s been complicated to say the least.

Focus, Ken. Pizza. The pizza was fine. I liked the slightly charred crust. The cheese was good. There were directions on the side of the box about how you’re supposed to eat it. Like folding the slice and all that. They clearly don’t know who the fuck I am.

While consuming it I came to the bizarre realization that I’m alone. Not just like alone in another country, alone in the universe. I’m trying to work through what that means. How that makes me feel.

I’m getting tattooed right now and can only type with one hand and it’s frustrating and I’m in pain, so I’m gonna stop now.

‘til the next slice. (or whole pie)

Vlad meets Lex. He realizes some things.

Vlad meets Lex Luthor at a gala, and Lex is schmoozing hard.

Lex has heard about Vlad's weirdass business deals, knows something isn't right, and he want whatever untraceable power Vlad's got at his disposal.

Lex has done his research, and knows that Vlad got the equipment for cloning, but that no child was ever announced. So Lex starts bragging, going on and on about Kon and talking about the kid like he's a Thing.

And Vlad, listening to this, has some unfortunate realizations about how he was treating Ellie.

So Vlad excuses himself and does some digging of his own, and holy shit do the dead have a lot to gossip about regarding how Superman used to treat the boy, and Vlad...doesn't want to be compared to either of those buffoons.

He's better than both of them combined.

And he's gonna prove it.

He's gonna be the daddest dad that ever dadded.

He'll be way better than Jack, and if he's a better father than Jack then Daniel and Jasmine and Maddie will follow! He just has to learn how to be a good parent.

Easy.

He proceeds to buy every parenting book he can find, and signs himself up for parenting classes.

Ellie, minding her own business, feels a shiver go down her back.

Hi!

I drew this because I was feeling really sad, but it works as a Bowser's birthday thing too woooo!!

Being alone in a crowded city can be a surreal experience. Surrounded by throngs of people rushing about their day, you can feel both a part of the energy and disconnected from it at the same time. The noises of cars, chatter, and footsteps blend together into a symphony of sound that can be both overwhelming and oddly comforting. You can feel small and insignificant, yet oddly liberated, as you move through the crowds, unnoticed and unencumbered. While it can be a jarring feeling at first, being alone in a crowded city can be a time for reflection and introspection, a moment to slow down and take in the world around you.

For a glimpse of the drawing process, take a look below:
