We won’t be accepting adult/minor or sensei/student romance of any kind, including ones where the characters are aged up. Depictions of rape/dub-con, incest, or explicit underage are not permitted and will not be considered as submissions. As always, we want to keep this event as inclusive of everyone’s comfort zones as possible. In the spirit of that, we hope you will create works that celebrate Tenzo!

If you have any questions, feel free to send us an ask! Have fun creating!

This is How We Rock it in the Tdot 12 / West Coast Love Affair 1

some comics I did on my flight from yyz to yyj. Pearson airport is...... a mess. Everyone keeps telling me that yvr is a mess but compared to Pearson? i’ve never had an issue at yvr. I get through security, i look for my flight on every single chart and it’s not there, i finally find my gate by looking it up myself on their friggin website..... i get there and every few minutes it tells me that my flight has moved from the gate im already at to... the gate im already at. Lu just wants me to panic needlessly. 

But i’ve found that for me, living in toronto, literally everything is that weird bureaucratic step by step in circles ‘go ask mom’ ‘go ask your dad’ back and forth inefficiency, the worst of their british character inheritance (not that i got the best, i still got the scottish cheapness and the english passive aggressive politeness in addition to my shameful colonialist heritage and taste for dark yeast paste). Everything. 

I just got an email today that my faculty has finally noticed i’m getting out of province support and that i will be receiving a bursary and basically to find out how much it is i have to go look at my invoice in january and presumably piece together what has been deducted from my account- for all i know they’re giving me 5 bucks. I just want to get things done and nooo John A MacFrigginDonald himself appears to play both sides and swindle me. 

Granted that the university has their own particular brand of inefficiency and impotency but me, the angry and anxious albertan who is Always in a hurry, i keep finding myself Exasperated to the point where even going grocery shopping is a challenge to master my nerves. (the only way to combat this is to get up Early in the morning because most of Toronto appears to sleep in until 10 am. Except construction.) 

the nice thing about pearson is that my gate happened to be near many pokestops so that was cool. i haven’t tried pokemon at any other airport though so it’s only a small redeeming factor. and i will give the UP express credit for the smooth buttery ride to the airport, that I enjoy a lot. And it wasn’t the TTC’s fault that it decided to break down just before I went to the airport- I had enough sense to leave at least an hour in advance of the 2 hours i had planned for my trip to the airport. Another comic about that later.

i wanted to draw more but during my flight my stomach kind of seized up a bit with indigestion and that was really not fun so i was in too much pain to concentrate on anything but music and ‘i wonder if we’re over alberta yet’

once again the van man is back to being elusive. I hope i can come see him this summer.

This week Brownman's FIVE WEEKS FOR MILES series kicks off in Cobourg at The Loft Cinema at 201 Division Cobourg and in Kitchener at TWH Social! I'm playing on 4 out of 5 weeks and I can't be more excited to take a deep dive into the evolutionary brilliance of Miles Davis. This was so much fun when Brown mounted this series two years ago and now it's two cities so TWICE AS MUCH FUN!!! Don't miss it and go to www.Miles.Brownman.com for full info, ticket links, player listings, venue info and more! ---- In 2019 there are 5 Fridays & Saturdays in March. Every weekend multi-award winning trumpet player BROWNMAN will lead 5 different all-star ensembles through 5 historic eras of jazz which Miles Davis catalyzed & immortalized with his presence. Fridays at Coboug's Loft Cinema, and Saturdays at Kitchener's Social After Dark (a newly built music room in the Walper Hotel). ---- Brownman, when asked about the tribute and the musicians behind the music, states, "For those who appreciate jazz as a true art form, FIVE WEEKS FOR MILES represents a rare opportunity to understand its greatest legend's career, where he could have gone and a reminder of what he might have meant to us today. I'm truly honoured to be fronting this sequential tribute and performing with such a monstrous cross-section of players." Brownman has put together a spectacular all-star cast for his production featuring everyone from award-winning Canadian jazz veterans Andy Ballantyne, Nick Morgan & Frank Botos, to luminaries in his own generation such as Adrean Farrugia & Ross MacIntyre to the best of the youngest new breed of jazz modernists like Nick Maclean, Matt Lagan, Jacob Aylward & Norbert Botos. This year will also feature in Week 5 acclaimed rapper Ayrah Taerb (Tdot Bangerz Brass), DMC World Turntable Champion DJ Dopey and new Brownman Electryc Trio bass phenom Sean Dennis -- making the Week 5 ensemble an all-star jazz-hip-hop affair. "Whatever age, whatever background, whatever colour - we're all going to be giving all of ourselves over to Miles’ music… to try and do the man and his vision justice”, Brownman concludes.

Hope everyone is ham having a great Friday but Don't get it twisted as I may hate exercise but I'll walk away from anything that isn't in my best interest. Wish more people would so I wouldn't always have to be the bad guy that has to teach that lesson over and over again but like I always say "it is what it is". Deuces. Just ask the line up of people who are pissed off at me because I won't accept anything less that loyalty and honesty and not their sideways shit.
