Eirik’s Obituarywww.egumeny.com On July 8, 2024, Eirik Gumeny – husband, friend, writer, editor, and renowned coffee drinker – died. (No, fucking seriously, he did.) Technically, this was his second death. Unfortunately, this one…

Happy #PortfolioDay! I cut things out of construction paper and glue them together. I love bright colors, simple shapes, and bugs. www.lgarrison.com

My latest cartoon for New Scientist.

Morning wishes from my cat.

There are some cool birds chirping outside my window today.

Responding to “what did you do today?” with “nothing” because the actual answer—“ate a bowl of jelly beans and then wrote lyrics to the Jurassic Park theme in my head to keep myself entertained while folding laundry”—makes me sound like a weirdo.
