2-panel comic drawn in pen with inkwash shading; the panels are stacked vertically and separated by one diagonal border.
Panel 1 starts with a caption that says "Um, okay... today's animal that I don't know very well was suggested by a reader and chosen by the dice gods: The Hellbender"
Beneath that caption is a d20 dice bouncing twice and landing on a "15," next to a drawing of the head of Bender from Futurama and a cursive note that says "Not this one. Drew him w/o reference, tho!)" Another caption says "Literally no clue what this one could be, so I'll draw it with no reference:" Beneath that is an ink drawing of a winding worm-type creature with tendrils at both ends, and the large end is filled with rows of jagged teeth like some sort of eldritch horror. The cursive captions around the drawing say "Gross? Got 2 butts? I'm thinking it's some sort of deep sea mollusk? Maybe??"
Panel 2 starts with another caption box saying "And now with reference:" and below that is an ink drawing of a long, plain-looking salamander with a tail that looks like a tadpole tail, 4 stumpy legs resembling that of a small alligator, and a round head with tiny eyes with its mouth open, revealing a non-threatening, toothless mouth. The cursive captions around the animal say "Alright, so it's a darling little salamander. So wet. Profoundly wet. Part catfish, part muppet. I love him."
Beneath the comic is my signature (Kat Baumann), today's date (11-8-2025) and the time I spent drawing this (50 minutes)

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

A four frame comic about Captain Torture. The first frame shows the sign "BREAKING NEWS" and the drawing of a man, with the words "CAPTAIN TORTURES PASSES AWAY" near him. The second frame shows a journalist holding a mic, as she says "A controversial and divisive figure, Captain torture will be remembered for his key role in history." The News title is "Mourning day for Captain-". The third frame shows three posts on social media. The first one is by a man called Paul James @Paulitician. He writes: "I didn't always agree with Captain Torture but he sure was a man who believed in something." The second post by James Paul @Avegetable reads: "I pay my respects to Captain Torture and his family. His heart was in the right place- with our country." The third post is by SonicVomit @SonicBleh , and reads "HE TORTURED PEOPLE". The fourth frame shows an interview on TV. An angry man on the right is saying: "Let me tell you something, Jen. I think it's SICK to celebrate Captain Torture's death. These people should be LOCKED UP, and also tortured-". The news below says: "Every president on earth pays homage-".

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

If you want or need SNAP benefits, literally the only barrier should be...signing up.

"But what about fraud?" My sibling in red, white, and blue, THE PENTAGON HASN'T PASSED AN AUDIT IN YEARS AND MONEY IS FAKE. I don't care if too many people have food assistance.

God I bloody love economists. This one zeroes in on Rand Paulโ€™s tweet complaining about the number of people on food stamps. And while he doesnโ€™t touch on income inequity vs cost of living, he does explain the cost for SNAP now vs pre-pandemic.

Boy, North Carolina Republicans sure don't want the attached story to circulate. I sure hope that this stupid threat from their spokesperson doesn't boomerang on them and have a lot more people read and share the story, which once again, is conveniently attached below. That would be a shame.

What did people do before SNAP?โ€

They died.

Healthcare, vaccines, disability support, education & food assistance are vital to our survival.

Theyโ€™re why the average lifespan isnโ€™t 35 anymore

The mark of a good & decent society is whether it sees the value in helping others.

I think itโ€™s good that my taxes go to feeding people who need help actually. Iโ€™d prefer that a majority of my taxes go towards ensuring nobody is hungry instead of paying for new missiles actually. Canceling snap benefits is objectively evil, they can pay, they just wonโ€™t.

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?

Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.

They wouldnโ€™t even be allowed in todayโ€™s Republican Party.
