Hell yeah we are! Check out this morning's interview on WNYC to learn more about the power of organizing: www.wnyc.org/story/local-...

Exciting update! Yesterday, we delivered a letter to the SVA administration informing them of our hope to establish a constructive dialogue, and urged that SVA not engage in any attempts to delay our right to a fair and timely vote on unionization in the future.

cover to The Life and Times of Savior 28: a collage of Savior 28-related ephemera, including a Time magazine cover, newspapers, photos, a button, and an action figure. Cover by Mike Cavallaro

cover to Vixen: Return of the Lion - Vixen sits near a lion, both staring at the reader. Cover by Joshua Middleton

These two very different (but equally excellent) collections came out OTD in 2009. The Life and Times of #Savior28 by @jmdematteis.bsky.social and @mikecavallaro.bsky.social, and #Vixen: Return of the Lion by @gwillow.me and @officialcafu.bsky.social. If you missed either of these, seek them out!

Thank you!

3 years ago, @ianrosenberg.bsky.social & I, with the good folks at @01firstsecond released FREE SPEECH HANDBOOK: A Practical Framework for Understanding Our Free Speech Protections, and it's as timely and useful as ever. I've heard from a reliable source that new softcover version is on the way.

Can anyone explain why it is that if you type in someone’s exact Bluesky profile address the search function says it can’t find them or that it doesn’t exist?

I just read Chapter 1 and your comic looks amazing! Looking forward to catching up on the rest, I see I’ve a long way to go! That’s a lot of work! Well done!

Coming your way this Free Comic Book Day, my FLASH GORDON tale in great company with stories by Art Baltazar & Franco, Marguerite Sauvage, and Bev Love, from the good folks at PaperCutz and King Features!

"There is dignity in getting paid fairly that we must protect, and we should set an example for our students who are likely to enter industries with similar exploitative practices. Without collective action, we are alone in our fight." svafacultyunited.org

Join the majority for a better SVA! With a union, faculty would have a seat at the table to negotiate as equals over our working conditions. svafacultyunited.org
