Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

IV. The crows standing over a dead skunk: 1. “Of death” 2. “Hell yeah” 3. Yum

IV. closer up on the vultures. “Meanwhile...

The latest episode of Goths is done! I’m posting it with the previous episode so it makes sense. I’ve been playing around with the coloring style. Which do you think works best?

Text that reads 

My wheelchair lift stopped working
this evening.
It's the thing that lets me get safely in and out of my home. It's also the only way I can get out quickly if there is an emergency.
If anyone has any TTRPG design work, writing, sensitivity reading, anything extra that I could help pitch in on, it would help right now.
Insurance does not cover these kinds of things.

So I loathe having to do this with everyone else hurting right now but the repairs are going to be costly and I would rather earn if I can.

I’ve already had to pay for parts today but labor is going to be more so if you have any work, I’m real good at that.

A share would be rad as well.

My hot take is that at minimum a domestic violence conviction should carry a lot more of the shame and restrictions of a sex offender; it should ban you nationally from gun ownership, jobs in law enforcement, schools, pretty much any public sector work. It’s our clearest red flag for future violence

Someday we’re gonna talk about the wildly misogynist indie comics publisher who loves to publish stories with young women heroes… but only if they’re written by men.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

I’m not much for religion but if I were, if a line of clergy flew in to freezing weather to line up and oppose me while singing songs of faith, I might be thinking “are we the baddies?”
