Midterms are a month away and it’s so important to vote for Democrats in every race. I say this because it’s undeniably true, and also so I can block any “Fuck voting, both parties are the same, man!” douches that come out of the woodwork.

A 7 panel comic by the artist. First panel: The artist is running from a distance towards a group of people playing basketball in the park. The artist is holding a pumpkin above their head and screaming "AAAAAAAAA". Second panel: The artist has leapt up and is in position to slam dunk the pumpkin into the basketball hoop. Panel three: the pumpkin splatters violently against the backboard of the basketball hoop, sending orange pumpkin goop everywhere. Panel four: the players stand staring, covered in pumpkin goop and shocked. Panel five: the artist stares at them wide-eyed, also covered in the goop and says "it's October FIRST". Their hand reaches towards their face. Panel six: the artist rips off their own face like a rubber mask to reveal a skeleton beneath. Panel 7: the group of players stand shocked and horrified, watching as the skeleton falls to the ground in a pile of bones, the sound effects says "CLATTER".

Jane Doe, you are remarkably brave. I wish you didn’t have to be. “I am Jane Doe.” Do not let them doxx Jane Doe. If you see their name, you did not. Do not punish the victim. I stand with survivors. You will not take away their power. We believe you.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a man is standing in front of an older gentleman walking his dog in the park. The man, making a friendly gesture towards the little white dog, asks, “does he bite?” The older man replies, “no.” Panel 2: the little dog grabs the first man’s hand with his paw and gives the back of his hand a sensual smooch. Panel 3: the man pulls his hand back in disgust.

Kyoto, Enkoji Temple, Jizo statue

Nestled within the lush moss garden (Jūgyū-no-niwa) of Enkō-ji Temple (圓光寺) in northern Kyoto, this charming stone figure is one of the sanctuary's beloved Warabe Jizō (child-like Jizō statues).

Representing Jizō Bosatsu (Ksitigarbha)—the protector of children, travelers, and souls—the small carving is depicted resting its chin gently in both hands, wearing a subtle, serene smile with eyes closed in quiet contemplation. Weathered by moss and lichen, the figure blends seamlessly into the vibrant green carpet of the garden floor, capturing the quintessential Zen spirit of peaceful harmony, simplicity, and gentle grace that defines Enkō-ji's grounds.

On this day, remember Batman's sacrifice as he transformed into a flying buzz saw.

Five-panel sequence from WORLD'S FINEST COMICS #128, 1962. CAPTION: "It is indeed a change... an eerie, startling transformation." Over three panels, Batman flattens out into the shape of a disc, his cape giving his form serrated edges, his head jutting out from the center. Batman takes flight toward a bronze statue of a Civil War officer. Looking on, Robin says, "He... he's weird... grotesque! What could have caused this?" As Batman cuts the statue in two at the waist, a hovering Superman says, "He's like a human buzz-saw!" Script: Jerry Coleman. Art: Jim Mooney.

Not in the mood

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a guy is talking to a girl. He motions off panel and says, “oh, hey— have you met Penguin Pimp?” Panel 2: Penguin Pimp, an emperor penguin wearing a leopard-print fedora, gold jewelry, and green pinstripe zoot suit, shakes the girl’s hand, tips his hat and says, “ICE to meet you.” The girl remains silent and doesn’t immediately react at all. Panel 3: Penguin Pimp awkwardly smiles and says “that usually gets a laugh.” The girl holds her head, seemingly exasperated, and says, “sorry. I just worked a 14-hour shift.”

Comic by drawer of drawings on Instagram. A detective stands in a kitchen that looks like it's splattered with blood. The detective says, mother of god. Nothing human could have done this. In the bottom panel it says, earlier. And there is a dog uneasily holding a ketchup bottle with its paws trying to put ketchup on a hamburger.
