"JK Rowling is already a billionaire and everyone already knows about Harry Potter, what's the point of boycotting?" Nobody thinks boycotting will bankrupt her. We know she's gonna die rich. We're just asking you to show a shred of solidarity with trans folk. Absolute low bar bare minimum shit.

From the home of the Edward R. Murrow School of Communication. Every day is a fresh reminder of just how unwanted and replaceable both I and what I've dedicated 30 years of my life to really are. I hate everything.

If you're in these states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Arizona, Arkansas Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas. Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check! And there's a lot happening across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

I work with abortion providers in Colorado. One of them had a patient whose water broke at 4 1/2 months, was told by a Houston hospital they couldn't help her until she went into labor or went septic, so *she got on a plane & flew to Denver mid-miscarriage*. There's no respectful disagreement here.

I'm going to have to finally break down and read this book, aren't I? Dangit. Fukuyama was faculty advisor to my eventual faculty advisor when she was at Johns Hopkins, so maybe I should get in touch with her and see if she has any juicy Fukuyama stories.

I played the Truckful demo and dug it. A spookier travel partner for Kaido Genkai. Dancing with Ghosts demo kept crashing, but I backed the Kickstarter and believe the devs will come good. Still need to try Silver Pines. If Casey Explosion lets them be her 1st sponsor, you know good times are ahead.

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

Sorry to hear you're ending the project, but it's definitely understandable. You have to protect your peace, and the demands of algorithmic finesse and "content creation" are antithetical to that. Thanks for all you've done over the years. It was great to read your work and chat at the last QED.

Big companies get to act with absolute impunity while small artists get ground into the dirt by payment processors, age verification, AI content detection, platform moderation It's not even about who gets to decide what counts as art but rather who is allowed to make it.

It's just how arbitrarily applied it all is, you know? If enough money is on the line all the hand-wringing about adult content goes straight out the window. Rules that get suspended when there's a big payout to be made aren't about "protecting kids" and never were.

It's hard to say what would get the vibes around the USMNT back to where they were in the World Cup group stage -- or if such a thing is even possible. But these guys playing this kind of ball with this confidence at that age? It's a damn good start.

🎃
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".

Right, except Sanae Takaichi's government doesn't want to send all foreigners home: they want to keep us as a permanent underclass with no civil rights, who can be exploited, kicked publicly for social media likes and then deported before we claim the benefits we've been paying into with our labour.
