Pigeon's Invisible Castle

Hey everyone! Not much to say this week, I hope that you are still wearing masks in public and washing your hands, as COVID-19 remains a prevalent issue. Also please remember that a lot of the protests and community efforts against police brutality have not gone away just because many of your feeds are back to normal. Stay safe!

Well, this update is a little late. This weekend we adopted two cats!! So we were a little bit preoccupied.

I hope that those of you who donated and posted about Black Lives Matter will not stop caring now that a lot of your feeds have gone back to normal. We are back on our regular post schedule here, but we have not forgotten that, at time of posting, Breonna Taylor’s murderers have not been convicted. A lot has been done, and there is still so much more to do.

In any case, we do have cats now and their names are James and Baxter named after the fun horse from Adventure Time, which is our favorite show.

There is a lot going on, and while I am sure some people would rather us return to regular comic updates, we would rather honor the marginalized groups whose lives are at risk. This week, on the anniversary of the Pulse massacre, trans protections were stripped by the Trump administration. We are also seeing the continued protests against police brutality, which is an issue that affects the LGBT+ community as well as African Americans. It is important to understand the intersection of LGBT+ issues and problems that the Black community face. This is why, this Pride month, we hope you will consider donating to a charity that helps Black LGBT+ folks. Here is a list of charities you can donate to. Happy Pride.

Sneaking a pro-protest message into the description of a regular comic update like last week didn’t feel like the right think to do this time. If you haven’t already donated, please do so if you are able. You can find links for specific places to donate here.

Some articles, lists, and resources I have found helpful this week:

Black Lives Matter: 8 Reading Recommendations.
BLM Instructional Library
15 Black Comic Artists Whose Work You Need to Read
Dear White People, This is What We Want You To Do

And because we should be supporting black-owned business—not just now, but all the time—here is:
A Big List of Black-Owned Goth/Punk Brands.

It is entirely possible that we will update this list later this week, or perhaps not.

Stay safe if you’re protesting, help the protesters any way you can if you’re not.

I am very happy that Daniel has written a new Interns in Space script for me to draw. And we introduced a fourth intern! I had fun designing our new pink four-eyed friend here.

Hey there is a lot going on right now. I hope everyone who is involved in the protests is taking whatever precautions they can to not catch or spread the virus. That being said, I want to make it clear: Black lives matter. Please stay safe everyone.

Oh, and happy Pride month!! Remember, the first Pride was a riot!

Aaaand we are back! Sorry for the long absence everyone, we just moved to a new house!! Only a couple more small boxes to unpack.

Hope you all are staying healthy and safe right now during the continuing COVID-19 outbreak! Next week we should have an on-time Monday morning update as per usual.

We’re doin’ our best…

Hey I hope you all are continuing to be safe in this quarantine! Things are about to get a little hectic for us because unfortunately, we have to move!! In the middle of a pandemic!!! Whoops! So there is a chance that we will miss an update or two. In the meantime, be well, everyone!

This is a very pink comic page.

Once again, I hope you are all staying safe! And We hope you enjoy this cake-themed page of existential dread.

Spaaaaace!

Hey so this is one of my favorite of Daniel’s scripts, and it’s super flattering to me because it’s based on a portfolio piece I did in college, long before he and I actually met. He’s looked through my old portfolio a few times, and I’ve said I want to make the concept of Space Interns into a full comic. We are toying with the idea of more Interns in Space comic strips but right now we don’t know what that would look like. For now, enjoy the first time I have ever drawn someone made out of goo.

The COVID-19 pandemic is still happening, so I hope those of you who are able to isolate are doing that! And I hope those of you who cannot are staying safe!

Look at how cute the doll is in the last panel. I am proud of that.

Hey I know I sound like a broken record at this point, but the pandemic shut down is still going on, so I will continue to say that I hope you are all safe and staying home and isolated as much as you are able.
