a panel from the Matt Fraction David Aja run on Hawkeye that depicts a newspaper front page that says Everything Awful Oh God Somebody Do Something

more than a decade ago, one Fraction-Aja Hawkeye panel captured the vibe of this entire era we're living in now

Today people went around my neighborhood in north east London spray painting St George’s crosses onto people’s homes. Many of these houses have non British people living in them.

This is getting very dark, very quick.

Bless and protect them all

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but autistic people aren’t “picky eaters”. We’re sensory eaters.

What may seem like fussiness is often an intense sensory experience:

- Textures that overwhelm
- Smells that trigger nausea
- Flavours that overload the brain

Photo of a yellow glittery sticker with some kind of rodent that resembles a hamster. It looks like it is in distress, standing up and sweating. There is a red cowboy hat on the head. Text around the animal reads "Hold on pardner, I'm overstimulated" There is slight chromatic aberration effect on the sides, really hitting the sentence home

pardner!!! hold on!! #merch

Orange Tabby cat, Greg, standing tall on his hind toe beans with front paws stretched straight in the air trying to catch a catnip bubble floating above his head.

Here’s a photo of my cat trying to catch a bubble. You’re welcome.

I'm at a point when I'm getting notifs about being blocked by nationalists and followed by autistic folk and cat lovers so I feel like I'm doing this right

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.

Pope Leo decries ‘shameful’ disregard for international law Catholic pontiff says international rules have been ‘replaced by the presumed right to overpower others’.

The international obsequiousness to a wanna-be autocratic dictator disgusts me like little else. The ways that irrational, downright boorish decisions are later rationalized and praised bring shame to every world leader in a position to speak up for actual humanitarian principles

The world sucks, so here are my cats

Picture of my kitty sitting up on the carpet. She is a white tabby cat with brown and grey fur in big patches, including the whole top half of her head. She is looking to the right of the shot. She is fluffy and her ears are perked up. her eyes are yellow green. Her nose is soft pink.

picture of my orange tabby kitty. He is laying comfortably on a bed with peach bedding, looking up at the camera. His eyes are green and he has long whiskers. His tail is tucked next his side and one of his front paws is tucked in.

My babies, Nina who is around 10 and Sunny who is around 3. Both rescued from homes that didn't look after them well. Nina chases Sunny around the house every day, but Sunny doesn't let that phase him to find his own cuddle times.

I fully agree, though I could have done without the unnecessary put down of sovereign Caribbean nations who are unfortunate enough to be geographically near the US

By bombing Iran, the US continues to make the world safe for war Netanyahu is thrilled by Trump’s attacks on Iran, as will be the arms manufacturers who used to love the shah of Iran.

"In Netanyahu’s words, Trump’s action will “change history” – as though making the world safe for more war is anything new."

Former President Barack Obama warns that U.S. democracy is “dangerously close” to sliding into autocracy.

The real reason, now and in the future, will always be: Nobody stopped them.

May every single human being on this planet be safe.

May every single person be protected from harm.

May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.

Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches? Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation. Reporter: Are you worried about the others? Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis. Reporter: “Why do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?” Greta Thunberg: “Because of racism.”

This is how.

Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.
