God this thread is goldmine of comic and animation history. In (my) art school, they simply taught that Betty Boop was popular with Black folks, not that Michael Mouse is an evolution of blackface. Anti-Blackness is so deeply entrenched in the arts, it remains invisible if youre not lookin.

Health Canada put out an alert regarding acetaminophen in pregnancy… reassuring pregnant people that it’s safe and that untreated fever can harm a developing fetus. Feel free to save the link to send to anyone who’s scared after Trump’s ridiculous autism announcement:

Really excited for next week’s episode of Alien: Earth

It’s hard to pinpoint when, exactly, U.S. hegemony came to an end. The 2016 election? The dissolution of USAID? But surely this disaster of a speech by a senile narcissist is a singular moment in contention.

I look at old Sunday page comics and the amount of room they were given to work on and tell stories and then I look at the 3 panel family shlock on a single page of the daily paper now and i cant help but be crestfallen at how little art and storytelling are valued in our society.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

#SciArtSeptember: Glacial Much like my pace making art this week. I don't usually do landscapes of any kind so this was a fun challenge. #Art

It’s here! Such a thrill to hold the book in my hands: “The Communicating Scientist” with my illustrations inside. It’s the kind of book I wish I had when I was a PhD student, and I’m glad to have it as a reference as a communications professional #SciComm 🧪 link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

Surgery in about 12 hours (nose and throat stuff). See you peeps in recovery. May not answer requests about the #SciArt Feed for several days. I’ll keep checking those amazing #SciArtSeptember posts though!

I don’t have a Gab, Truth Social, or 4Chan account to “impact public debate”, so I see no reason to stay on Musk’s X either. Audiences are bigger here. And filled with more real people, I’d bet.

Perfect weather. #dlws #toronto

Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

Oh also, remember when Open Ai’s ex CTO made this face when asked what training went into Sora? Here’s an in-depth reporting to give us one to answer to that question and to why the CTO had that “😬” face. Spoiler Alert: The training is all ill-gotten works that Open AI has 0 business using!

Increasingly, my only mindset has been 'the only way out is through.' Get more weird. Become more niche. Cultivate less broadly marketable stuff. If people come out of this being feral little trash goblins, it will be a response to outside stimulus and nothing else. That's totally on them.

Not sure if folks realize that more people in Texas are employed working in renewable energy than in oil & gas now.

Watched the new Superman movie and that was not for me. Hoping for something more earnest and inspirational. C’est la vie.

When I’m wrong, I’m wrong.

I can't do millennial complaints, but my most GenX complaint is that cynicism should not be an excuse to roll over or tell others to quit. It's the armor you need to continue to fight when you know you won't be the one to benefit from it. Yeah, we're fucked. Now get your hands dirty.

Artists are already self censoring to avoid losing access and their jobs. The high poisitions in the arts will be given to those willing to avoid ever really saying anything.

For the first time in Alberta history, Danielle Smith will use the notwithstanding clause preemptively to shield her bills targeting vulnerable trans children from legal scrutiny. Her actions are simply cruel and wrong. Read my full statement below:

America is like a small town where it turns out that one rich kid who pulls the legs off of grasshoppers for fun also has telekinesis, and now everybody is sweating bullets.

Inside you are two wolves

This post isn’t directed at me, but it could be. And that’s fair. I’m probably wrong and boycotting Disney is worthwhile. Thanks to those who engaged and are using their voices to change minds.
