PANEL 1: A cat in smoking in bed with an ashtray on its chest. CAT: "We tell kids 'Be Yourself' but what we mean is 'Be a You that is a Self I Will Like'" PANEL 2: The cat is now bundled up and walking outside. CAT: "This country loves individuality when it means I won't vote or join a union. Less so when it means I need a special diet, I get tired easy, or I refuse my role in a genocide." PANEL 3: The cat is now eating a burger. CAT: "We have enough Rome in us that a child is PRIVATE PROPERTY of the father here. And here THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. EVERYTHING is on the table for you to bend and break a child to your vision. The parent as first consumer." PANEL 4: The cat is lighting another cigarette. CAT: "'Be yourself' more like a wish than a commandment, then. 'I want to seem like the kind of person who's accepting of your messy self, but let's still have service with a smile, kiddo.' That's how I learned it, anyway."

Digital drawing of Tangle the Lemur wearing a yellow "fuck ice" t shirt. She's holding a Minnesota flag in one hand and blowing a whistle with the other.

Tangle is probably my favorite Sonic character, in part because her origin story is just "normal person who jumped in to help however she could when her village was attacked". Seemed relevant.

These are SO good!

watercolor paintings of a cartoon pigeon in a big floppy hat and a cartoon raccoon in a pool floaty

tiny watercolor of a rat perched in a fancy tropical drink

Some itty bitty paintings of little garbage friends having a chill day at the pool. A pigeon all prepared for his time in the sun, a racoon relaxing in his pool floaty, and a rat about to get his drink on.

THE ICE BREAKER SCHEDULE IS OUT
oengus.io/marathon/ice...

Join us on Friday, Jan. 30th starting at 11:00am ET for a weekend full of the best speedruns we could find in support of Minnesota against ICE!

Reddit post of the Aye, I Could Do That meme. From Know Your Meme: "Aye, I Could Do That refers to a scene in Lord of the Rings: The Return of The King in which, approaching the final battle, Gimli says, "I never thought I'd die fighting side by side with an elf." Legolas replies, "What about side by side with a friend?" to which Gimli replies, "Aye, I could do that." The scene was turned into an Object Labeling exploitable to show two groups, usually opposed, fighting against a common enemy." This post is a Bears fan saying "never thought I'd upvote a Packers post." "What about upvoting a fuck ICE post" "Aye, I could do that."

Our government's atrocities are bringing together Bears fans and Packers fans.

two panels of the same group of a cartoon hippo, a cat, and a dog. top panel the hippo is rolling out dough, the cat is mashing a sauce in a molcajete, and the dog is frying rice in a wok. bottom panel, the hippo is bandaging a crying cat who is injured, the dog is holding an umbrella and bouncing away tear gas canisters. A sign sits between them the larger panel is framed top and bottom by the words "Love your neighbor"

A poster I made of a combat boot slamming down on an ice agent, the words on it say "I like my ice crushed"

Every day in 2026 I've woken up mad, without fail. Fuck ICE, fuck this whole fucking Administration. Bunch of evil evil evil dirty little liars. WE SEE THROUGH YOU!!!! *screams* what absolute scumbags.

I remember seeing one of your early Twitter posts (2017?) and reading "ICE MUST BE DESTROYED" for the first time. It genuinely made my stomach hurt as I tried to square it with my understanding of how the world worked and what was possible. Shifted my perspective; was actually scary. Thank you!

They're calling her the most vindicated girl of all time

We are so fucking back

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

in memory of a really good dude

A digital painting of an ice cube, followed by several hands closed over each other with water pouring from them. Bold text on the art reads: "ICE MELTS".

so don't get too comfortable.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

Local outlets are confirming info faster than national media and DHS is lying.

Graphite drawing of a small shrimp sitting on a chair.

Jesus Christ dude.

You're so much stronger than me lol. I would be writing on the walls in my own blood

People drove by.

"Oh no! Is everyone okay?"

"It's an ICE vehicle"

Laughter erupts and people got out to take photos.

That's very kind of you lol. I think it went pretty cartoony pretty quick.

That's something I always admire in your drawings: you observe how cat heads look so well! You do a good job of making them feel real and animal. Mine looks like a drawing of my fursona :P

Graphite drawing of an expressive looking cat. Text: I think I drew a furry...

I went circle first and winged it...

You should!! I didn't appreciate graphite until I got into actually nice drawing paper and realized you can build things up slowly like a watercolor lol. The textures you can get after working on something for a while are very satisfying.

That's extremely kind of you, thank you!

Man that used to be so much of my time on the internet! I ran my own RP message board as a middle schooler.

Thank you!

lmfao no fucking way I'm doing that shit hahaha
It's a lot of hatching and blending stump. Trying to get more familiar with blending, mostly

Thank you!
