Declaring that no quarter will be given unequivocally violates international humanitarian law. Indeed, ordering that no quarter will be given, threatening an adversary therewith or conducting hostilities on this basis is prohibited and constitutes a war crime.
They're coming for our books again.
Introduced by far-right idiot Mary E. Miller and co-sponsored by 17 GOP congressmen, HR 7661 would use the hammer of federal funds to force schools nationwide to remove books the GOP doesn't like from library shelves.

The day after we put the final touches on issues #88-91 of “Swamp Thing”, news broke about the passing of Tatjana Wood, the original colorist on the series. Tomorrow, March 2nd, would have been Tatjana’s 100th birthday. Let’s raise a glass to one of comics’ originals.
Funny. It doesn't look newish...
Women’s Hockey team doing ‘fuck you, we aren’t coming to sex-abuser central’. 💪

Literally my email back to Keezy ten seconds after I got this:
"OH MY GOD KEEZY OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!!"

It appears that Woody Allen was trying to send a New York Times story about Marie Antoinette to Jeffrey Epstein, but accidentally emailed the NYT's obituary for the great comics artist Marie Severin instead
So now Marie Severin is in the Epstein Files, technically
What a fucking world

We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.
They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.

There aren’t actually. The First Amendment gives me the right to call you “Gestapo” to your face, as often as I want, with zero governmental consequences.

I wish I could watch MICHAEL CLAYTON for the first time again...
I keep thinking that Germany gave us Nazis, but they also gave us "denazification". There's a roadmap to getting past all this (for a few generations at least) if we've got the will to use it.

If they're really that good, they'll switch parties at the very least. But any one of these motherfuckers who just say they have "concerns" or "misgivings" need to be shown the door. Immediately if not sooner.
Of all the brands folks are boycotting because they are silent on ICE/the T***p administration/etc., don't forget the most important one to shun:
Republicans.
None of this "they're one of the good ones" bullshit. Any Republican not disgusted by what that name has done should be shunned forever.
Whenever I see "the team up you never expected!" turn out to be someone you could have guessed, I always snarked and said "How about Spidey and Jesus?" But Sal has such a reach over the MU that it doesn't surprise me that when Spidey & JC DID crossover (even on the sly), Sal drew it.
RIP
“Can I say one thing before we end? This theme of what happens when hatred turns into violence is such an important theme in our film.
I will not be able to sleep tonight if I do not say, because we mentioned Harry Potter, that trans rights are human rights. I just wanted to say that.”
Paul Bunyan sez FUCK ICE.
“He’s killing us in the streets and we still have to pay our taxes in April” is an incredibly compelling point.
