Patreon Not Making Fee Changes

Hey! So, uh, whoah! 

Here is the thing: I totally understand and support Patreon needing to make fee changes somewhere in order to fund their company, pay their employees, and turn a profit. It's just, as the small business using their service, I already expect that I am the one who will foot that bill! It's the same for when I use Square to charge credit cards at a conven...

Matt and Erika Make Friends

If you were ever wondering if we actually talk in real life like we do in our comics? 

Yes.

The answer is yes.

PS: Also, my yeast infection is still going strong and I am SO. UNHAPPY. (Yes, I've been to my doctor and I'm doing everything you're 'sposed to, I don't need any advice ;)

(A Version of) The Sexual Response Cycle

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/sexual-response-cycle/

Hey. Hey buddy. Did you know there's more to having sex than chasing an orgasm? 

This week I do my best to illustrate the different stages that a person's mind and body can go through when it's getting all turned on and horned up!

I took s...

Patreon Fee Changes

December 13th EDIT: Hey, so Patreon responds to you guys and will not be making their original fee changes!

Hm, not so great news today. 

Patreon is changing how they'll be processing the fees for pledges and, as far as I understand, it is decidedl...

Best of 2017

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/best-of-2017/

Jesus fucking Christ. I wanna say "I can't believe the year has gone by so fast" but I say that every year and also everyone you know is probably saying the same thing, including yourself. Like. Learn a new refrain already, Erika.

ANYWAY.

In Defense of the Dick Pic

Coraline! (That Thing You Like, Episode 206)

I LOVE getting to have these annual chats with the That Thing You Like boys, when we get to dive deep into a story. In the past we've discussed the book 2017-11-27 22:38:11 +0000 UTC View Post

Jealous

I am feeling jealous of the (appearance of) success and respect of another professional. And it's like.

Erika. 

Sweetheart. 

They are doing their own thing and it is reaching the audience who appreciates it. 

That's not what you do. That’s not your audience.

I just.

The Wife Knows All

Christa Pierce's paintings are so prettttttyyyyyyyyyy.

Four Letter Word

I have a bunch of friends who I love. Friends THAT I love? Friends for whom I feel love? I have some friends and I love them. 

There's the ones who know I love them because I tell them so, we say it to each other when we hug and when we joke, we say it without any reservation. It's effortless to share.

There's the ones I love every day but I only tell them when the occasion r...

Done is Better than Good.

I saw this photo on Instagram:

There, that one, just now.

The colors and the shapes really struck me and I thought to myself, dang, I bet I could embroider that.

The Shitty Things We Do

I know I extend the benefit of the doubt to people too much. People who obviously, publicly fuck up, hurt others.

I just... I know that’s part of being human. We’re messy. We hurt people. Sometimes very, very badly. And... hopefully we learn better. I think there’s very few Genuinely Bad People. The rest of us, we THINK we’re in the right when we do the shitty things we do.

These Hills Sing

Remember when I made friends with the Fleshlight Twitter account by bonding over our shared love of Emperor's New Groove?

Over DM I offered to send the guy who mans that account a copy of our book and he graciously accepted! 

What else could I draw in it but this? 

Fucking Hands

Follow up to the previous post where I realized I'd forgotten to draw THE MOST IMPORTANT set of hands. Like, the entire illustration is going to be centered around them. 

This is a combination of my hand and Dylan Meconis's 2017-11-16 00:39:37 +0000 UTC View Post

The Hand Job

I put out a call to my Twitter followers to lend me a hand (C WUT I DID THAR) yesterday because I've gotta draw all these fucking hands and my own hands are famously (to my friends and loved ones) tiny and inflexible so when I use them for drawing reference, the resulting illustrations depict  tiny and inflexible little mitts that are not representative of the average human's hand. Hand Hand ...

Figuring Things Out by Crystal Jayme

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/figuring-things-out-crystal-jayme/

What role does sex play in your life? How necessary IS it to become sexually active as soon as you can? What other kinds of experiences are filling up your life and how much joy, frustration, fulfillment, and challenge are they brin...

When I was 14, I read Whiteout.

I had cocooned myself under my dad’s bulky feather blanket as sunlight poured through my tiny basement window but really I was in Antarctica with Carrie Stetko as she lost her finger to frost bite during a deadly snow. I was lost in that world with her, absorbed into the illustrations telling her story.

Fleshlight's Turbo Thrust

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/turbo-thrust/

Matt and our friend were brainstorming Destiny 2 jokes together for this comic and I didn't get any of them because I've never played this game. 

But I HAVE held the Turbo Thrust in my hands and it IS a lovely fuck tube!

That Time Fleshlight and I Bonded Over Our Favorite Disney Movie

I dunno, I just thought this exchange was really cute. 

And I like the idea of anyone looking over Fleshlight's Twitter timeline is gunna see them earnestly being a fan of Emperor's New Groove, in between promos for their latest cock sleeves and answering folks' questions about their fu...

Am I Ready for Sex?

https://www.ohjoysextoy.com/am-i-ready-for-sex/

Haha, oh jeez, I've been avoiding this comic since we launched four years ago. "How do I know if I'm ready for sex?" (and variations of that question) is one of our most frequently requested topics and it's... it's a hard one! Hence my avoidance. BUT. No more do...
