Okay last post about this! I'll have this up for an indeterminate amount of time, while I wait for new labels to arrive.

Random doodles throughout the first week of recovery.

On TikTok there's a woman doing a fairly clever social experiment. She's calling churches around the US and asking if they can help her get formula for her baby. She tracks on a spreadsheet which ones say yes. It makes me wish we could strip religious tax exemption from orgs that fail their values.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

*That’s* the headline.

(Unfortunately there’s hardly any news outlet left to run it 😭)

If Andrew Cuomo is the right choice for fascist, right-wing billionaires, he’s the wrong choice for NYC.

This isn’t complicated.

#helpsky #SNAP

I'm a physically disabled person on SNAP. Food insecurity is a dreadful thing to deal with. :-(

I really need help as soon as people think they're able . This first week is critical -- I, and so many like me, fear a lot ahead.

If you can give a little... or even a great deal.

Screenshot of an X post by Nicholas J. Fuentes replying to Ben Shapiro. Fuentes’s post lists a series of rejections: “No to Ben Shapiro, No to the neocons, No to dual citizens, No to Benjamin Netanyahu, No to cancel culture, No to genocide and ethnic cleansing, No to the Christ-hating Talmud, No to Greater Israel, No to our Jewish oligarchy,” followed by “AMERICA FIRST. AMERICA FOREVER 🇺🇸.” Below, it shows Ben Shapiro’s earlier post saying, “No to the groypers. No to cowards like Tucker Carlson, who normalize their trash. No to those who champion them. No to demoralization…,” along with an image of Shapiro speaking into a microphone on his show “The Ben Shapiro Show.”

Ben Shapiro was just ratioed by Nick Fuentes on X after Shapiro called out Tucker Carlson and Fuentes for their antisemitism.

The neo nazi right is fully taking over the republican party.

lovely

Like a lot of people on SNAP this month, I could use help if anyone's able to spare. :-(

Again, whatever you're able. It'd mean so much. Thanks.

California I love you please get in your ballot to vote yes on Prop 50, you have through Tuesday to do so

KOSA dropping duty of care is great but this article buries a very important lede:

A bill package will be introduced once the govt reopens that is a collection of multiple bad "child safety" bills, COPPA 2.0, the Sammy Act, and the App Store Accountability Act [age verification]

CALL YOUR REPS

cutting to celebrities at dodgers stadium will be like “here is 90 seconds of every a-lister you know” and at the skydome it’s “member of schitt’s creek” and “famous prog rock musician” and “well muscled guy trending on tiktok”

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.

I gotta make some extra money with my art, seems harder than ever

It's good to hear politicians - even enormously popular former politicians - use their platform to call out the attacks on trans people. I just wish people in power would fucking DO SOMETHING about it.

(I'm largely expecting Congressional Dems to fold on trans healthcare to reopen the government.)

Corey is a treasure that we are lucky enough to coexist at the same time with

It’s also called AutoGenocide is a term used to describe the large-scale extermination of a country's citizens by its own government!

unfinished drawing of ed grimley

Somebody sent me a DM this morning and was like, can you draw Ed Grimley? I said yeah, sure.

(I'm agreeable like that.)

This is where he is after a couple hours

The Data Brokers Fueling ICE’s Deportation Machine—And the Union Shareholders Fighting Back "As investors, we are thinking about this as a risk to our investments, but also as a social and ethical issue.”

Corporate commitments are not “a sufficient alternative to enforcement of international law and domestic laws designed to prevent companies from monitoring individuals and committing human rights violations,” EFF’s Kit Walsh told @InTheseTimes.com. inthesetimes.com/article/ice...

Dems suck too but they're not like this

Pretending like they suck this bad just makes you look insane
