hi, cis folks!

do you trust the senate to decide whether you can have healthcare or if you legally exist under the law or where you can legally wash your hands or pee? neither do we!

please tap into the thread & tell senators our civil rights & lives matter—even more than the jimmy kimmel show!

Newberry Medieval Minicomic Prize Juried mini-grants for emerging comic artists interested in engaging with medieval culture.

Friends, I am as excited as heck to tell y'all about the NEWBERRY MEDIEVAL MINICOMIC PRIZE!

It's for emerging cartoonists (i.e. no major publisher work, excepting anthologies) considering making a short work that engages with a medieval subject (fic or nonfic). 1/

Remember to support a rad bookshop too and order from Proud Geek!!!

Jordan is a phenomenal flatter, I would recommend him forever. If Jordan's flats have 100 fans, I am one of them. If Jordan's flats have 1 fan, I am that fan. If Jordan's flats have no fans, I am dead.

a short overview of the comic

BUSINESS AS USUAL is live!!

A group of punks attempt to free the detainees from America’s first off-the-grid ICE detention center. Will they accomplish their goal? Not if carnivorous snakes, situationship drama, or the state have anything to say about it!!
