Today is the birthday of Calvin Massey (Feb. 10, 1926-June 10, 2019), a painter, illustrator, and sculptor, who also worked as a comic book artist in the 1940s & 50s. He drew for several companies, including Marvel, St. John Publishing & Lev Gleason. #BlackHistoryMonth

Age verification and social media bans are explicitly ways to isolate queer, neurodivergent, and abused kids.

I've heard directly from hundreds of children at Dilley. One young girl who shared her story with me grew up in the United States and her stepfather is a U.S. citizen. She said that the guards are mean to her, she is afraid, and that she is worried she will die in detention.

Republicans: stab the ball, tear it apart, set it on fire, rip up the court and sell the turf to Bahrain

Schumer: hey you guys are out of balls

Republicans: we’re gonna kill your families

Schumer: ok we’ll pass funding for new balls but you’ve GOT to read the rules

Once you notice society's base reluctance to refer to women as "geniuses" with the same frequency they do as men, no matter how talented or influential she may be, it's a thing you never really stop noticing.

From the late Jesse Hamm. My personal mantra for the past decade.

Call every senator! Not just ones from your state. Your ability to have fresh water and enjoy unspoiled dark sky areas is on the line.

Black people are less than 5 percent of Washington's population. An already tiny sample size. The number of Trump voters? Even tinier. And overloaded with evangelical zealots or manosphere weirdos. Yet, somehow the media is always able to find one. Every single time. Funny how that works.

Does anyone remember when I wrote cringe raps about comic retail?
Too bad, here's one.

This one still applies, I think. Though I feel the heat a bit less, internally.

Local police aid ICE by tapping school cameras amid Trump’s immigration crackdown Local police assisted federal immigration agents by repeatedly searching school cameras that record license plate numbers, data show

The cops are not our allies. Police forces have been infiltrated by far-right goons for decades. They *are* ICE. They're the same dudes.

It's actually remarkably easy to not ever use ChatGPT.

If you like buying comics and supporting small businesses, what is the #1 thing keeping you from doing so more often?

Finances?
Availability?
Lack of choices?

Trying to figure out directions for internet stuffs, please repost.

That's the face Wee Claire makes when she's got a wicked scheme.

Open? On a Monday? Kinda! A delivery is due and the shop isnt making rent, so I figured I’d just open while I do normal Monday things, recycling, post office run, etc.

T-Rex: People often have pictures of their family in their home. To that I say: FAH! T-Rex: And by "FAH!" I mean "hey, good start, but why stop there?"

T-Rex: I think we should have pictures in our houses not just of family, but of our FRIENDS. In fact, I think it so much, it's what I'm doing from now on! I'm gonna have nice photos of nice pals to look at and make me happy! Dromiceiomimus: Aww! That's sweet. T-Rex: RIGHT? I'm a good guy!

Utahraptor: But where do you draw the line? T-Rex: Explain! Utahraptor: You've created a VISIBLE THRESHOLD in every one of your friendships: are you photo-worthy or not? What happens if I come over expecting a photo of me and find none? T-Rex: Then you'll be so mad at me that we'll become worse friends and the problem solves itself! HAH!

Off panel: Okay, sure, but what if I think it's creepy you keep a photo of me? T-Rex: See my response to the question you posed immediately preceding this one! T-Rex: KEEPING PHOTOS OF FRIENDS IN YOUR HOUSE: A NO-DOWNSIDES LIFESTYLE CHOICE

The sheer volume of the files and the number of names in them means that we can be sure there are a lot of people out there who remain an active danger to children. It's also quite likely that the network itself is still operative. Epstein can't have been its only organiser or connecting node.

BEEN MORE THAN AN HOUR SINCE OUR LAST CUSTOMER, THE SPORTING EVENT IS HAPPENING AND IT'S LIKE SINGLE DIGIT WEATHER OUT THERE...
CLOSING UP EARLY.

Ms. Hart has become an A.I. evangelist. Through her author-coaching business, Plot Prose, she’s taught more than 1,600 people how to produce a novel with artificial intelligence, she said. She’s rolling out her proprietary A.I. writing program, which can generate a book based on an outline in less than an hour, and costs between $80 and $250 a month.

As always, the real money in a gold rush is selling shovels.
