If you want to see how ingrained protecting men from accountability is, take a look at the comments here. To be clear, this is someone who committed sexual assault managing the narrative after the truth came out, not someone taking accountability.

Police use reverse warrants to demand the identity of everyone who used a search engine to look up a particular word or phrase — without any evidence they've done anything wrong. Delaware's ban on these dragnets should be celebrated and replicated across the country.

Two page spread of "Come Out From Your Grave". The art on the left is a spirit standing over a woman praying in front of a cross tombstone with candles on its base. The ghost is pointing as if giving directions.A color cover illustration for the Little Wolves TTRPG with muted purples, blues, greens, yellows, and reds, with black line art. The title logo is done in a yellow stylized blackletter ambigram style that reads the same upside down and right-side up. The logo sits in front of a large red moon. The main focal point of the composition is a young werewolf with glowing eyes, running along with two wolves behind them. The werewolf is tangled in the vines emerging from the silhouetted trees that frame the composition. Along the edges of that frame, in four circular vignettes created by the branches and vines, there are cameos of the four queens of the game: the witch queen, the troll queen, the pumpkin queen, and the mermaid queen. A banner along the bottom of the cover reads “A realm of folk and fae from Dinoberry Press"
