Couple of drawings, keeping a list of "songs of the day", and a few notes about books I'm currently reading.

Good advice from ophthalmologist, very funny creator, and seemingly all-around good dude Dr Glaucoflecken on how to be prepared if you find yourself in any of the places where you might get pepper sprayed in the United States (💀)
All I want to know is why Aronofsky's new film, which appears to be a wooden horse shape (voiced by SAG actors), was left outside the city gates?
