if i had a nickel for every time I fell in love with a band after realizing one of the actors in a show I watch is the lead singer, I'd have two nickels. which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible

"Do any of you know a John Constantine?" Said the boy standing inside the summoning circle with a briefcase, stance casual, relaxed. "I've heard he works for the uh-" His eyes roam over the every person in the room, past the cultist standing in front of him, past the unconscious ones, before finally stopping on both Batman and Superman before snapping his fingers. "Right, the Justice League and I know those two are apart of it, so I'm assuming the other ones are also in or affiliated with them."

Slowly, a few of them turned to look at Constantine, who took the lull to light himself a smoke and then walked forwards, hands in his pockets until he stopped by the head cultist and barely batting an eye he uppercuts them, knocking them to the ground and reaching for his smoke with a hand. "That's me."

The boy's eyes roamed up and down Constantine's form with a single minded, unnatural focus that threatened to send a slight shiver down Constantine's back that he suppressed. This continued for about a minute, before an expression of disgusted disappointment crossed the boy's face.

Constantine raised an eyebrow. "Got a problem with me, kid?"

The boy grimaced, before reaching an arm forward all too quickly and pushing the briefcase into the warlock's chest. "I-It's for you." The boy sounded far too pained to utter such words, as if speaking to Constantine physically harmed him while averting his eyes.

Constantine grabbed hold of it with his other hand, looking down at the case. "This is...?"

"Open it and see." The boy said, stepping back to the farther end of the circle. "Now, if you excuse me. I shall take my leave."

With a flash, the boy left, and the circle quieted down from a bright glow back to just a drawn circle over the floor.

"Constantine-"

"I know Batsy, 'debrief first, open it later'. Don't need to tell me once." Constantine turned around, and over to the group of heroes, disregarding the unconscious body on the floor and walking over it.

===

"Sooo," Flash began. "Anyone wandering what's in the case?"

Batman glanced over at him, and Flash brought his hands up and shrugged. "Look, we were all wondering it."

"I wonder as well." Chimed in Wonder Woman with a smile.

Small murmurs of agreement rang through the table, and Batman looked stared at all for a good, long and hard minute, before moving his gaze over towards Constantine. Everyone else did so as well.

Constantine light another smoke, uncaring for Superman's small grimace, and placed the briefcase on the table and opened it.

Whatever the Justice League was expecting, it was not for an avalanche of letters to spill from the case, knocking Constantine and his chair over and slamming open the rest of the case.

From the ceiling rained letters, and Batman took a hold of one, staring at the expensive looking paper that glowed with a slight green shine, carefully and expertly sealed with a seal in the shape of a heart.

'From Vlad Masters, to John Constantine." It read.

"It seems our shifty warlock found himself an admirer." Wonder Woman's smile took on a more playful edge.

Below an ever growing pile of white of red, Constantine despaired over the loss of a perfectly good cigarette.

I just tried to pay at the thrift store and my $50 was counterfeit 💀 most embarrassing moment of my life bc who the hell tries to pay with counterfeit cash at a charity shop? It was an Easter gift from my grandma given to me via my father so idk where she got it. Anyway, put the purchase on my card. Haul upcoming. All the old ladies gathered around the register to ogle my counterfeit $50 and I was like “I’m so sorry I’m so so so sorry.”

Heh.

You mentioned in the latest Pride Angels update that your next campaign, the Themed Monsters one, will be your final. Out of curiosity, why is that?

I won't say it's my final campaign forever but it is my final planned campaign. I have a few reasons I guess.

I have a finite list of pin ideas. The only other idea I had for another campaign was to make Dungeons and Dragons pins, but when I ran a poll for that I got insufficient interest. So I'll just plan to make them on my own as a very small batch.

I initially started making pins because I ran out of angel pins to collect. But now I've made a ton, and lots of other artists make angel pins too.

My shop profit is getting less and less each year and no longer justifying the time I'm putting in. My shop sales are down at least 80% compared to last year.

Pins are made in China so if tariffs go into effect, it will effectively kill my pin business as well as others.

There's all these reasons and also that after putting so much time and effort in to all these pin campaigns, I'm feeling pretty burnt out.

I miss drawing just for myself. I have been in the mode of drawing for customers for so long, I'm not sure how to draw for myself anymore. I hope I can rediscover that; or take a break from art and catch up on other things, like video games and D&D.

But I do still love pins and running my shops so, I think I will always be doing at least a little bit of that, just not at the same pace or scale of the past few years.

I bet you didn't expect such a long response Anon, but I hope this helps explain what I'm thinking :))
