Since gaining +60 lbs from lexapro in 6 months in 2023 I have now lost 20 since April 🥹🥹🥂 so happi. Only bc the gain being so fast was super uncomfy and my body is not used to carrying it around. My goal is to get down to the weight my body has been all my life ! 🙌 1/3 the way there!

Disney turned out to be cowards! Bending to the whims of a dictator wannabe!

Jesus Christ.

“Debate Me” culture is not organic, endemic, or apolitical. This mode of high jacking discourse is and has been central to a 30-year conservative training program that has produced untold numbers of people to do this for every reason but “civil discourse”

Saving for later :3

Honestly love the way Crockett talks to these assholes.

More fascist censorship from the party that claims to support "free speech."

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

Most pathetically, militantly anti-free-speech administration in my lifetime and not even close

So it was OK for Charlie Kirk to say these things, but if anyone QUOTES what Charlie Kirk said, *they* get cancelled. Got it.

I can’t stress this enough that in this industry, you have to be your biggest advocate and stand up for yourself. If something doesn’t seem right, you need to call it out. Especially those of us that have been in this space for a while. We owe it to ourselves, our peers and future creators.

You can tell Charlie Kirk was beloved because it requires the full force of the American government and law enforcement to force the people to mourn his passing.

@joyannreid.bsky.social is asking the right question.This may be the most dangerous period.When the dog catches the car & realizes he can’t open the doors or satisfy its hunger. Now there’s rage, snarling and vicious humiliation at having exhausted itself pursuing something that has no real meaning.

Had a great time last week demoing with Copics & OLO markers and drawing attendees at Art in the Pearl in PDX to promote my teen manga classes at Oregon Society of Artists! Sign up your teen 🥰 tr.ee/oYKEgP-qp8 • #art #artclasses #pdx #portlandartist #manga #anime #mangaclass

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

Shoutout to all the cis people who told me it'd never get this bad and I was just being paranoid whenever I was worried

I do kinda love this one

Was it his civility which drove my colleagues into hiding for teaching at a university? Was it civility when TPUSA spawned death threats against me and many others? Was it civility when he said other people’s children should be murdered rather than have gun safety?

Remember, it’s not the content of his words but the politeness of his vibes that’s important.

hey if you're someone interested in flatting/coloring comics, this is a great resource. very few people know how to do it correctly, and it's not difficult but it IS more technically intensive than most people assume! these are useful skills!

Studio 4°C has posted "Kung Fu Love" on YouTube, a 15-minute short film directed by Yasuhiro Aoki ("ChaO") from their musical anthology "Amazing Nuts!" (2006). Video available until December 5. >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=aL-k...

Remember how scary it was for the 36 hours where it felt like the Right could explode into violence as a repercussion of an assassination? That's what our trans brothers & sisters feel like every fucking day We have to protect them at all costs. They are our line in the sand; not a bargaining chip.

Try to live your life in such a way that when you die people don't have to be threatened and bullied into pretending they're sad about it.

While people are getting dropped from their dream jobs and losing their livelihoods, JKR continues to spew violent hate, while her publisher (and mine) Scholastic continues to not say a word about it.

Another reason why I don’t date other people in comics… …this would be me on a Saturday night.

COVID killed at least 1.1 million people in the US (likely an undercount). COVID vaccines saved at least 3.2 million lives in the US in the first two years alone. Completely unacceptable RFK Jr is restricting vaccine access when he clearly has no idea how COVID or vaccines work.

As a governor who cares about the well-being of my people, I can’t live in a fantasy land where I pretend Trump is not tearing this country apart for personal greed and power.

AOC: If anybody says “this isn’t fair, I'm gonna have to divest all my stocks if I run for congress” maybe you should stay home.

I don't know a single person in PDX that lives alone, or any household that's not held afloat by at least two incomes. There are 4 working adults in my household and even we struggle to pay the rent. It has less to do with wages (I make 4x fed min) and more to do with avail. work/hours.
