Nate Beaty's Brainfag

brainfag is retired

July 12, 2008

i'm now at natebeaty.com.

(you can read all this on the new homepage, but if you're like me, you rely on RSS for updates, so here it is again!)

almost 8 years to the day, i ended my 5-year luddite hiatus from technology after dropping out of virginia tech, bought a generic 600mhz pc and registered brainfag.com.

i was then a landscaper living in a solar/hydro-powered, woodstove-heated, for-reals greenhouse on the idyllic, cold & clean orcas island hidden in the puget sound. as i retire brainfag, i’m a corporate webnerd living in an overpriced 1-bedroom apartment just outside hollywood in hot, stinky, foul-breathed los angeles.

why retire bf? i have grown tired of explaining my most fav word ever, brainfag. yes, that’s a lame eulogy. maybe this is better:

Brainfag.com lived a long and prosperous 8 years, which is like 250 years old in web-years. When she began telling the same old jokes three or four times, crapping her pants, and craving wheatabix, we decided to put her down.

i have also retired the comic title, "brainfag," but i will of course continue to draw.

MoCCA bound

June 05, 2008

I realized I'm on the list of exhibitors with a link here.. and I haven't really mentioned that I'm going to be at MoCCA with my own (what looks to be bare) half table this year. Work has been so crazy busy that I haven't really been able to whip up much in the way of merch to display on the table -- but when I think about it, this is one point in my life where I don't really worry about MONEY. So, I'll just bring my new book, what I could finish up of my Korea comic as a preview teaser mini, and just have fun!

See you there, fellow comic dorks.
