A happy pet store owner stands next to his pet store with a satisfied Heathcliff, who also has a fishtank with a "Bro"-saying fish on his head. The pet store owner says "The Brofish are a hit."

i just did a workshop with kids about making comics. emphasized that ANYONE can make comics. you don't have to be a "good" artist. you find a story that matches your art style and you do it and it's awesome. and a kid who NEVER PARTICIPATES got out from under a desk and PARTICIPATED and had a blast.

Here's the truth.

You can't stand with trans people and take a gig with Rowling. It is impossible. You can make donations, you can issue statements of support, but at the end of the day you are choosing to work with the single most prominent transphobe who uses her money and platform to harm us.

"Unlike the left, we don't believe in erasing history" says the guy renaming ships and purging any mention of like the navajo code talkers, tuskegee airmen, black medal of honor winners, etc

God it all feels so manufactured around the fear and discomfort of a handful of people but you can see the language being Aggressively changed in real time, over and over again, hammering away at terms like "male," "female," and "biological" until that's the only way we think of strangers anymore
