Hello, people of bluesky, if you are just joining us—here is an old comic I made about Dracula

The drawing Kamilla made at Dilley while I spoke to her parents over Zoom this week. It shows her near the lone tree that stands on the detention center’s grounds, butterflies fluttering around it — one of the few places, her mother said, where children sometimes see something alive and colorful.

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Feb 14: KS Dem gov vetoes a bathroom ban: “The Legislature should stay out of the business of telling Kansans how to go to the bathroom and instead stay focused on how to make life more affordable for Kansans." The legislature is believed to have votes to override.

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

it's 2026. PC Gamer is doing journalism while actual news outlets post more transphobia. a sandwich costs $16 or five easy payments of $5 with SandoLoan

The EU has just voted, by a VERY wide margin, for the full recognition of trans women as women…!

reason #400 why im very skeptical of electoralism as an institution

Man I'm so goddamn sick of ai. "Wahhh you can't have a reasonable conversation about ai on here," yeah maybe be mad about the two year parade of scam artists and financial charlatans and environmental ruiners who have radicalized everyone against the spell check that agrees with you

RIP Robert Tinney (November 22, 1947 – February 1, 2026), the artist famous for his playful covers for Byte magazine, a hobbist magazine that ushered in the microcomputing age from the mid-70s through the 90s. I'm honored to have included his work in my own art collection.

If you're concerned about recent goings-on with certain chat platforms: organize a zap! Zap support emails, call centers, your local lawmakers's voicemails- use your voices collectively!

its really as simple as "art to conservatives can only be an act of domination"

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

i love that for the average american, activism is just watching TV the correct way

This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

If you have a masc leaning partner (who isnt an asshole) ask them what their favorite flowers are Get them said flowers for Valentines day. Let men feel loved, and seen. Let them know they're allowed to be soft around you!!! Let them know you value them being that way!!

(sees rampant authoritarianism happening in late stage capitalism) what are we, a bunch of communists in the soviet union????????

deeply troubling that people get excited to watch commercials in advance

games getting worse because they're chasing the trends set by Mihoyo call that Genshittification

i think we all need to step back and realize that peak art was made when neolithic pot in the shape of a pig was fired

Finding out that a billionaire pedophile cult astroturfed the entire anti-trans movement makes me hate liberals who are willing to sell us out all the more. What the fuck do you mean you're not willing to oppose the work of the actual pedophile billionaires who EXPLICITLY made this happen? These

More tools

The thing about saying that genAI will enable the marginalized to create art is that not only is it not true, literally just fucking look at art and music and writing, but it is saying that a handful of rich pedophiles should be allowed to control whether marginalized people can produce art.

I think "woke" was at least partly identified with "irritating" and the way we're rectifying that in Woke 2 is by being scary instead

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

i wish i was not a girl

Hollywood producer Barry Josephson to Jeffrey Epstein: “I've been thinking a lot about that question that you asked bill gates 'how do we get rid of poor people as a whole'"

There is, and I cannot emphasize this enough, a hecking cheeto in the White House.

eugh

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Part 23 in my weekly poster series of 2025 #art #hopepunk

the confirmation of contemporary transphobia as a political movement has been the brainchild of a boys club made up of some of the most disgusting monsters in recent memory to explicitly keep trans women disenfranchised so as to subjugate and exploit us for their own sexual gain is like a lot, dawg

cant stop thinking abt how epstein& co were basically like "trans men shld fuck off and die bc theyre inherently undesirable" like. im not happy about apparently being in the child sex slave class myself but i dont think death is a humane alternative

Transphobia is rooted in pedophilia. It's rooted in the idea that children's bodies have future 'value' and that things can be done to potentially 'devalue' them in the eyes of potential "clients."

O cool The hypothesis that the elite were trying to segrigate trans people from society purely to keep us as sex slaves was real, but only for trans women since they see trans men as undesirable for sex and want them eliminated which is EXACTLY THE POLICIES AND RHETORIC WE'RE SEEING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW
