This city is home to people of countless faiths. But no matter what you believe, one thing unites us: we are all New Yorkers. We will not allow ICE to terrorize our neighbors.

ICE Melts in the Minneapolis Winter
Now itβs time to abolish the agency and impeach Kristi Noem.
Getting ICE out of Minneapolis isnβt enough, says U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar:
βWe need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.β

An early development digital drawing in color depicting Frankie and Andi, covered in android blood, in front of an early concept for the Repair Halo which had lots more details. An android (that was not necessarily Gwen at the time) lays between them, mid operation.
KOG IS GREENLIT!
Since this was shown in the trailer/ad for the artbook it felt safe to share. This was drawn in '24, early dev, the first time it really felt me, Zach, and JBO understood Frankie, Andi, and the show's tone. I still look at this drawing and think, oh yeah. That's #knightsofguinevere.

Gold Ship from Umamusume is being overtaken by Agnes Tachyon from Umamusume, who is sprinting through and breaking a checkered finish line ribbon on a circular grassy field like the ones used for horse racing. Gold Ship is dressed in San Francisco 49ers colors (red and gold) and has their logo on her hat. Agnes Tachyon is dressed in Seahawks colors (blue, green, and grey) and has the Seahawks logo at the ends of her long labcoat sleeves. Behind her, it says "HAWKS OVERTAKE!!" in blue and green. Further behind them, on one side of the track, is a wooden fence, and on the other side, a crowd.

VICTORY: After thousands of locals protested, called, and gave public comments, a company halted the sale of a Virginia warehouse to DHS to be used for immigrant detention.

No, Cynthia Nixon caused a sensation by appearing in The Real Thing and Hurlyburly at the same time and commuting between them on her bicycle.
