This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.

If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.

in which Finn debates the merit of his letter of recommendation while watching his sweaty crush play Sports, and also everyone just found out an apocalypse-causing monster is on the way

thanks!

Big news. I wrote a biography on Nobuo Uematsu and it drops this Fall, published by @viz.com. It is jam-packed with amazing revelations about the Final Fantasy composer that the public has never heard about, as shared by himself and those closest to him. This is the definitive chronicle on Uematsu.

in which a begrudgingly time-travelling Finn follows a trail of bug bodies, Preludes to The End, and I use “corner” one too many times

every high profile anti trans critic has an origin story that goes "years ago someone asked me to respect trans people and instead I chose to go insane"

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

feels like i should re-post this every few weeks

The American right does not defend slavery because progressives say it was bad. They defend slavery because racial hierarchy has been an important and increasingly explicit component of their ideology for 70 years. Read a fucking book.

Kid pulling back to knock out a fascist

THIS MAN IS YOUR FRIEND.
HE FIGHTS FOR FREEDOM.

danny's original tweet which reads, Today, students at my high school in Chicago held an Anti-ICE protest. I was the only one that decided to hold a sign that said ‘I Love ICE’. Instead of allowing me to express my opinion, I was assaulted — Just for standing up for law enforcement. What is happening to America? there is a 47 second video that sees multiple other kids talk smack to him and one of them just lays into him physically

a quote tweet that has transcription from the punch. the tweet reads:“You’re gonna punch me?” “Yeah” “Then you’re gonna in trouble for that” “Okay” Followed by this frame is one of the hardest things I’ve seen on the internet this week. the frame in question is the kid winding up for a punch. it looks exactly like the pepe punching meme

over on x the everything app some Chicago high school kid named Danny Spud tried to disrupt his school's anti-ICE protest by yelling about how much he loves ICE and then filmed himself getting walloped by a fellow student lmao

the quote tweet making fun of him has 3x the likes

the cover art of my book the young necromancer's guide to ghosts on a black baground with tropey tag things that read: she sees dead people, family woes, queer kids, bestie is a ghost, spooky magic, sisters stick together, dragon friends!, finding community. Nebula Award winner logo on the top right.

Lusi can see ghosts. And that’s only the beginning of her problems. In this queer MG fantasy novel, she joins her sister, a ghost girl and some dragons on an adventure halfway across the world to learn about her unusual magic. 🌈📚

Heaven help me if I ever meet someone in person who claims to be an AI author. I have a glass face. I cannot pretend. I will do my trademark cackle and then just snicker uncontrollably for a while. Do you let the plagiarism robot kiss your lover? Look at sunsets for you? Why are you even alive?

Anne Frank died from a typhus epidemic that spread through the concentration camp where she was imprisoned.

always repost Frog art 🗡️🐸

It is more important to create than submit work

to submit work than worry about being published

to publish at all than be too precious about where or when

to have work read than get awards

to be nominated at all than win—

And it is more important to make what you love than never risk failing.

AI is for losers and grifters.

Creating art is done despite the hardships. In spite of it. Because of it. For the sake of it.

"AI is just another tool!"

A tool to rob yourself of the joy and accomplishments of having made something, anything. A tool to revoke agency of your growth as a human.
