Apple Banned an App That Simply Archived Videos of ICE Abuses Eyes Up's purpose is to "preserve evidence until it can be used in court." But it has been swept up in Apple's crackdown on ICE-spotting apps.

Censorship has fully arrived. In the latest, Apple banned an app that archived ICE abuses for legal evidence

Every single day, censorship gets stronger as media and corporations bend to serve the regime

If you're somebody who values supporting marginalized voices in comics, here's your chance to put your money where your values are! 

The writer of this RINGO NOM’D 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 isn’t running a GoFundMe to support this move, and is not asking for charity. Simply, Anas is using their talent for storytelling, along with Dennis’ gorgeous art, to offer you a beautiful experience in the comics medium, that also goes toward funding a better life for Anas. 

I’m so proud of Anas, and humbled by their experiences and perseverance. I would like to see Anas’ Dream realized, and I’d love to see this community help to make that happen. Please join me in pledging to the Etheres Kickstarter campaign! (link below).

Illustration of a Harpy and Mermaid, in love. The mermaid lays on her back in a tide pool as the harpy flies closely above her. Their faces and bodies almost touching, but not quite yet. the bottom half of the illustration where the mermaid is, is all in blue/reens, while the upper half where the harpy is, is all in warm pink/purple/yellows. Their eyes match the others pallet

“If we view feminism as the struggle of gender-marginalized people for bodily autonomy, rather than just calling these things “women's issues,” then we make room for all trans people within feminism.”

500 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics are now closing or at risk of closure because of the Republican bill that guts health care funding, per @protectourcare.org.

I’m a trans nonbinary cartoonist working on a story about a nonbinary kid raised by pirates, growing up with magic and a found family of monsters they meet along the way!

It’s a celebration of survival skills and resilience!

If the feds aren't in Portland, then why are there still helicopters buzzing my damn neighborhood constantly? The protesters have been hanging out at ICE for months without all this air fuss. Why is this happening?? @wyden.senate.gov @merkley.senate.gov

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.

ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.

A judge has ordered his immediate release.

This happened on a book that I colored nearly 50 consecutive issues of, a thing I don't think I'm soon to repeat. You're disposable, don't trick yourself into thinking otherwise.

Over the past few years, I had a couple of long form and/or labor intensive things get fancier, collected editions, and then not been included in promotion, and in some cases my name excluded from the covers of the books themselves.

I feel like the only way to remain sane as a colorist is to never view what you do as anything other than a job. While I've had collaborations that were respectful and rewarding, your work is so often minimized or outright ignored, there's little point in being emotionally invested in any of it.

It’s not even 10 a.m., and so much has unfolded in Chicago:

– Illinois sues Trump over the National Guard deployment

– Mayor Brandon Johnson bans city property use for immigration enforcement

– Journalists and protesters sue the feds over Broadview violence

My robot character in the game Bitcraft. They have purple hair with glowing green eyes, a teal crop top, dark green pants, green wrist wraps, a brown leather belt and brown leather calf height boots. They are sitting under a tree with a river in the background with fish swimming in it.

They have a peach colored owl next to them, sitting on the floor in a room on  an animal skin rug in front of a wooden table. The walls of the room are bare but there is a bed on the left side of the image and a rocking chair on the right side.

Yeah @feardeer.bsky.social is working on terraforming the area to open it up a bit more. It's such a pretty area. I snapped some pictures of my character.
