During my lifetime, the American conservative agenda has been preoccupied with expanding violence in schoolsβ€”and normalizing violence against children more broadly.

School shootings, campus sexual violence, bathrooms bans, ICE raids, and now bombing a girls’ school in Iran.

I’m gonna mute the word β€œdistraction” for the next 72 hours. None of this is a distraction from anything else, the US Government is, and has been, a death cult run by rapists. Every atrocity they commit is its own reward.

Seeing a lot of people sharing the Trans Continental Pipeline, which is good for those Kansans who can and wish to exit the state, but for those who cannot, there are other organizations you can support! Please share these as well! πŸ‘‡

i need allies to stop looking at the ongoing horrors that trans people are facing and responding with "wow imagine what will happen when this comes for [others]"

yeah that'll suck, can we talk about it happening to us RIGHT NOW? we're more than the canary in the coal mine. we deserve to live too.

Especially after COVID I feel so incredibly disconnected from conventions and in-person industry community stuff. And since I've been working on a huge project that is still a solid year from being published, I sort of just feel like a ghost in the industry

Also way less likely to be offered guest spots at cons and often can't afford to go just as artist alley creators

There is just no metric (stylistically/aesthetically/mathematically/vibes) by which the same group of 10-20 mostly-white-guys, or the next crop of the same behind them, are the best/all that the comics medium has to offer.

But the big 2 keep pushing them on us, giving them the highest profile work

Hey.

Tell people when they do good job.

When you like the stuff they make.

When you like the characters they’ve created.

The stories they’ve told.

Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.

Trust. They don’t.

Tell. Them.

Most of the worst things happening to humanity are just 500 or so men (and at least one woman) who get together to bankroll evil. It’s not nuanced or complicated. Just true.

I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

The annual naming of the city snow plow contest is a Chicago tradition. Many great name suggestions as usual, but "Abolish ICE" seems a perfect one to land on. Love this city!

Quick reminder that Substack recently sent out push notifications to random users promoting a literal Nazi blog that they host.

There's a reason why a lot of us don't share Substacks, or even visit sites hosted with them anymore.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.
