Well I'm sorry to hear about your ex, and your dad, and that asshole your dad had to interact with. What a mess. Hope your dad recovers quickly.
Whachoodune is pretty rad. I like the figure with the horns for hands.

Most of this bad news is just life being life. But I noticed life introduced a new kind of asshole. I'm noticing it's hard to even talk about it. Folks have been thinking a certain way for a long time now; on both sides. It's not helping.
A lot of my cartoon characters have that figure somehow implanted on their face. The meaning is significant. It's like a parasite that takes over the host. Much like info on the internet.
I have of course noticed many of your face figures. But I don't recall hearing the meaning explained before, so thanks for that. A very interesting and creative message to send, via art.
Life did indeed introduce a new asshole these past couple years. I know many people on both extreme sides of the argument. I have my own personal views and opinions, but I always try to respect the views and opinions of those who disagree with me on that topic. I'm finding that it builds character when you allow yourself to coexist with those you disagree with, instead of just smashing them into pieces and walking away.
I think I've hinted at what it all means but never got into details with the entire crowd. It just comes up in comments from time to time. Even those pieces where I jam all kinds of faces into something that looks like a mess is usually just me pointing out how screwed up society is becoming, without saying it. I have several that follow that theme as well. I get criticized for the dark nature of my work at times but to me it represents honesty.
I don't shy away from the views that don't make sense to me. Because that's everything. I observe. Then try my hardest to not insult people, even though the simple act of asking a question can be insulting these days, to some.
