It's fun, it's easy, and it's free!: reading two chapters of Summer Grass Winter Worm at grassworm.net #webcomic #entomology 🦋

1 -
Thulia beckons an annoyed Nyima closer.
NYIMA: Now just what is so important?
THULIA: Trust me, you're gonna want to see this
2 -
Nyima and Thulia (sketched in lightly) peer at an orchid mantis in the foreground, looking coy.
NYIMA: Weird bug? I think you are more excited about this than I am.

They're saying it's lesbian day, so here are some highlights from Silver Witch Princess Vai v-ual.itch.io/silver-witch... #VN | #visualnovel

"Something about slipping one's fingers underneath another's jacket was so much more intimate than merely touching them in that same spot without the jacket on. Fortunately, Weiss felt the same way... maybe even more intensely than expected, if that tremor was anything to go off of."

"You're so right. I shouldn't waste your time. You're a hard-working teacher, and it's wrong of me to toy with you."

"Well, I don't know how to draw boys, so let's draw your future wife."

Existential Comics @existentialcoms
Rent is a tax that poor people pay to rich people for the right to live in society.

Existential Comics @existentialcoms
Each year Americans pay $512 billion in rent. That's money earned by labor and transferred to those who own property, because they own property.

We pay over a third in rent what we pay in income tax ($1.4 trillion), If you are poor, you likely pay much more in rent than tax.

5, 10 yrs ago, the Lindt would have cost 3-3.50 and the fancy chocolate, well, it hasn't changed?

edie v @ summer grass, winter worm @dollarchive.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

You go to the candy aisle and see the low-tier "fancy chocolate" (Lindt for example) costs 6.50 a bar. You go to the organic aisle and see the high-tier fancy chocolate costs 5 dollars a bar. Or less

edie v @ summer grass, winter worm @dollarchive.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

One of the stranger things about the current state of US economy is that the fancy/ local/ organic products are actually, in many cases, cheaper than the big name brand equivalent at this point

Help MCAD faculty win a fair contract! Read and sign act.seiu.org/a/mcad-petit..., then let's rally and deliver our petition!

Image of a poster, which has comic art and text at the top, which reads, "Help mcad faculty win a fair contract!" Beneath the text, a comic panel shows someone in a suite saying, "hmmm," while reading a piece of paper with from mcad faculty, to mcad admin written on it. A comic panel to the right whos the same suit-wearing folk asking, "huh?" while a large speech bubble overlaps from beneath the panel, containing the words, "pay us fairly!" More speech bubbles next to the first contain the words, "respect us!" and "give us a voice!" A long document of signatures trails from beneath the speech bubbles, supported by folks in a crowd. More text reads, "faculty, staff, friends, family, members in community, show them we care! Read and sign here," followed by an arrow pointing to a qr code for a petition. Beneath the qr code the text continues with, " and share! Then, let's rally and deliver our petition! Straight to the president!" The date October 6th, 11:30 am - 12:30 pm, and location, Washburn Fair Oaks Park, are printed in the lower left.

Instead of saying "women and femmes" you could say "people who are socially perceived as women" or "people affected by misogyny" or "marginalized genders" or, I don't know, anything else

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Yesterday the barometric pressure dropped about 0.5in/hg in the span of 12 hours, went back up in the next 12, and now it's dropped right back down. It's interesting to think of how migraines have been affected by climate change, as every summer is the hottest and every winter the coldest etc
