Hi, it's me again I have these calendars. They are so pretty. @megstampede.bsky.social made them. They have a bunch of animals on them, like crows and humpbacks and cuttlefish and salamanders. Each month has facts about the animals AND actions you can take to help them Get one at Squidfacts.net!

Devastated to wake up to the news Alice Wong has passed, she was the Oracle for our time, a fierce warrior and a representative to the disability community. Peace, light and love to this beautiful soul.

So there’s a lawyer going around BlueSky right now responding to everyone talking about the Anthropic book settlement by (1) urging people to opt out and (2) saying that they are representing authors who are opting out.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

Literally every person who worked on it in the credits

BREAKING: We won! Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years. pghguild.com/2025/11/10/p...

11 days to go! Let's get this funded~

At the food pantry I volunteer at we were absolutely swamped today and by many first timers. We ran out of whole categories of food. Please donate cash to your local organization if you at all can.

I want a Frankenstein from the perspectives of a couple of the friends or relatives of the dead people who were used/reanimated. "This is George, but not quite, but I love him anyway." "Harry is taller now, and a bit ham-handed, but he is the father of my children and we need him."

US Department of Agriculture says no food aid benefits will be issued next month reut.rs/3WohHMk

We serve 300 people a night and our lines are growing as govt assistance is cut. SNAP will run out Nov 1. Millions of the poorest Californians will be harmed. We are going to raffle off everything we can think of to help fill the gap. World Series tickets first! : givebutter.com/game4?gbtid=...

Happy Lightbox Expo to all! Although I'm not there, the energy and creativity is palpable. Seeing the community's effort and enthusiasm helps make art seem less like a mirage and more like the practice it is. Cheers! 😘🥂

It's the month of jack-o-lanterns, black cats, and -tober aka dash tober. Don't know if I'll get to the drawing and posting side, but will try to finish even one piece.

Final Fantasy illustrator Yoshitaka Amano offered the new edition of Fabula Ultima a gorgeous cover. Read our interview with Need Games. www.inverse.com/gaming/fabul...

A wonderful and amazing artist is reaching out for help! Richard shares some of the most wonderful figure drawing videos and lives on YouTube. He's battling a recurrence of stage 4 cancer. The GFM is to help ease financial stress. If you can donate or share, plz do! www.gofundme.com/f/support-ri...

Unacceptable @viz.com. Why do this and cast doubt over every manga in your app?

Thrilled to share that you can catch me as Sky Byte in the latest episode of Transformers Cyberworld🦈 Aside from clearly being the best/most powerful/smartest Decepticon, Sky Byte has been VERY busy on Cyberworld (…sorry Wheeljack fans😏😈) #Cyberworld #Skybyte #Transformers #Maccadams

Economic blackout day is on the 28th, but please remember to patronize small businesses like...your local comic book store! Support small businesses and pay with cash if you can 😘

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Agreed.

DEI is vital on its own merits. But another reason is that it teaches all of us to value the humanity of those around us and to ostracize those who refuse. Authoritarianism depends on these broken people who refuse to respect the agency of others. It’s why DEI is so central to democracy.

In case you missed it...the trailer for the LIES OF P DLC DROPPED!!! And it looks like the team has outdone themselves once again! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfS9...

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Important! "...the point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm and paralyze our capacity to act. More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media in response to these ridiculous claims actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action."

You can’t post your way out of fascism Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them 🔗 www.404media.co/you-cant-pos...

But this is EXACTLY what I believe and have practiced in my publications!!! Am I… Beyoncé??! *Tiffany Pollard face*

I can. In fact, the Canadian version is so great, I can't think of an American equivalent. 🧵

Actually had something cool and positive happen this week. So let me share that since we could all use some good news. kfor.com/news/oklahom...

ICYMI, I made a work-only Bluesky account - @gregpak.com - in case you want a feed just for posts about my comics, books, films, and photography! Enjoy! (Here at @gregpak.net, you'll continue to get EVERYTHING. Think of @gregpak.net as me in sweat pants and @gregpak.com as me in chinos, lol.)

I just subscribed to wired for a whole year and you should, too. It's just tremendous reporting that really meets the moment right now.

Demand for your D senators from @ezralevin.bsky.social: 1. Blanket opposition to these Trump nominees 2. Withhold unanimous consent 3. Require quorum calls for everything Rs want So we can SHUT DOWN THE SENATE. That's it, folks! Make your calls! reps.fyi

Friends, I know there's a lot going on, but if you work in comics, please share this so folks don't get scammed. To be clear, the email in the screenshot is not from me, and no, I am not randomly emailing people about their Kickstarters. ⤵️ (And thank you Edward for the heads up!)

Less than 24 hours after the call last night, folks already showing up at Tillis' in-state offices to tell him to vote against Vought. If you see this and think, "Hey that doesn't look hard - I could do that." You're right. You could do this. You should do this.

We interrupt the doomscrolling today for TINY. SQUEAKS. 💙

Waiter: Would you like a complementary bottle of wine, sir? Customer: Ooh, yes please! *later* Waiter: Your bill, sir. Customer: Hey, you've charged me £50 for that bottle of wine, you said it was free! Waiter: No sir, I said it was complementary. It goes *very well* with the steak. *sad trombone*

The Valentine's Day chocolate sales battles have begun! But seriously, why don't we have chocolate that look this good? I envy Japanese department stores, especially the food areas. Watch, but only if you dare (to be very jealous)!

I understand survivor's guilt is uncomfortable, but please don't offer absurd platitudes like "you can replace things, not people" to someone who has just lost everything. Here's what was most helpful when my family went through this a decade ago:

I hit up a few places and they are already full up with volunteers so I’m at my brother’s school offering what support how I can. LA county really mobilized. It’s amazing. The scene at Pasadena City College.
