When I find a writer I like, I want to be able to find more books that read like that, not more books with the same kind of settings and subjects.
I dropped off art in downtown Portland today for the Northwest Museum of Cartoon Arts that is opening there. The set up looks amazing, canβt wait to see you there:)

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest. Thereβs been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day. What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that weβre actually not that afraid. It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as βwar-torn,β it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and itβs, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

The writer of this RINGO NOMβD INDIE COMIC (and a very dear friend of mine) is a Syrian Refugee who has been through more continuous hardships than I have space to list here; constantly navigating visa applications, unstable living conditions, predatory landlords (limited options as a refugee). Anas just wants to make comics and live a normal life like what so many of us take for granted. Backing this campaign will help Anas to take the next step toward freedom and autonomy, helping to fund a move to another country with more stable employment options. This is truly one of the most important comics purchases you will ever make.
Middle Eastern and North African comics creators are some of the most underrepresented in the comics industry of the western world. Anas isnβt running a GoFundMe to support this move, and is not asking for charity. Simply, Anas is using their talent for storytelling, along with Dennisβ gorgeous art, to offer you a beautiful experience in the comics medium, that also goes toward funding a better life for Anas. Iβm so proud of Anas, and humbled by their experiences and perseverance. I would like to see Anasβ Dream realized, and Iβd love to see this community help to make that happen. Please join me in pledging to the Etheres Kickstarter campaign! (link below).

There is no left-wing violence in Chicago or Portland. It simply is not happening.
It's so not happening, in fact, that Republicans in Oregon took footage from two South American countries to create a hoax photo about Portland.
They have no actual violent footage to put forward.
