I’ve really slacked off on featuring the mascots in this run of ConCONcon comics, haven’t I? I’ve also really slacked off on presenting the specifically hotel-related experience of conventions, what with the whole “I just commute and eat lunch in[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
(Dang it, I am NOT making Saturday into the new Conventional Wisdom update time. Just bear with me, I’m gonna try to get back into the Wednesday groove as soon as I can) There are many difficulties that come from[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
