Panel 1: In a bug classroom, a praying mantis teacher points at a board sketch of Sisyphus rolling a boulder and says, “So, Sisyphus was doomed to roll the rock up the hill for all eternity.”
Panel 2: A dung beetle student beams and says, “That sounds wonderful,” while a butterfly next to him listens.
Panel 3: The butterfly replies, “It’s actually horrible.”
Panel 4: The dung beetle still beams and says, “Ok. It’s horrible.”

Having 1 million followers is like throwing confetti into a hurricane: people cheer, platforms profit, and you’re left sweeping your own glitter off the floor. Everyone loves the art, shares it, while we’re over here perfecting the art of checking our bank balance with one eye closed.

Three-panel meme using scenes from a movie. First panel shows a man saying "You have millions of followers. I think you're good." Second panel shows a blonde woman responding "Social media platforms don't pay their creators." Third panel shows the same man looking shocked/concerned in the rearview mirror of a car.

Platforms Stole Our Pay, AI Stole Our Art

Now AI companies are scraping our “worthless” art to train billion-dollar generators. Apparently our work was valuable enough to steal, just not valuable enough to pay for. It’s like being robbed by someone who insists they’re doing you a favor by “increasing your exposure.”

So here we are on Patreon, asking our actual fans to bridge the gap between “viral content” and “paying rent.” Because in this rigged game, the only reliable currency left is people who genuinely give a damn about creators surviving.

An XL sticker sheet titled “Apocalypse Now Sticker Sheet,” featuring humorous and satirical designs about climate change, capitalism, technology, and space travel. Examples include: a burning tree with the words “Thanks Assholes,” a dinner plate reading “The Rich,” a sign saying “Send Elon to Mars Already,” a burning Cybertruck-like car, a sign reading “Owls Against Oligarchy,” and an anti-AI sticker saying “Use Your Brain. Fuck AI. Enjoy Your Mind.”

The World is doomed! Will this sticker sheet save us? Probably not. But we’re on the side of blind optimism! These stickers may very well be just what we need to survive. This huge sheet features an ass-kicking combination of heartwarming motifs, such as Worms for Wealth Tax, I Want to Believe in Humans, and our ever-present flaming Mother Earth.

 

Our dear patrons voted on the motifs so if you, Mr. Musk, think about suing: IT WASN’T US! WE DON’T YOUR FUTURISTIC TRUCKS ON FIRE 🔥🔥🔥 WE JUST WANT YOU TO FULFILL YOUR DREAM TO GO TO MARS!

Stickers can soothe pain, make you laugh, and help you identify fellow kindred spirits! Let us join hands with our fellow worms, our whales in arms, our ardent owls to shoot those billionaires to a galaxy far far away.

Meeting you, our readers (aka followers aka fans?), at festivals is always a heartwarming experience. There’s something truly special about connecting with people from all corners of the world who find a piece of themselves in our stories. Traveling to different conventions and countries, we’re constantly reminded of the vast, diverse community that stares into our little comic universe.

It can be overwhelming at times, the sheer scale of faces and stories, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. Each smile, each shared laugh, and every story you tell us about how our comics touched your life keeps us going. Thank you so much for that. And if we ever appear weird or exhausted, please don’t take it personally, it’s just what we are at times.

In a black-and-white cartoon, two surgeons stand in an operating room during surgery. A patient lies unconscious on the operating table with their chest open. To the right, a dog leaps off the table, happily running away — carrying what appears to be a removed organ in its mouth. The caption reads:
“It would be the last ‘Bring Your Dog To Work Day’ at the hospital.”
