I've been thinking about Matt Furie a lot during this period of political frog realignment, so I made this comic dedicated to him.

Some attention on the talented artist Jen Toal, who created my wonderful avatar. It was great working with Jen, and I got a unique headshot that preserves some online anonymity. All her art is human-made. Highly recommend Jen for a professional avatar created by a real person. @vettha.bsky.social

Who are the private donors funding the disgusting demolition of the East Wing of the people's house for Trump's $250M gilded ballroom?

Holy shit.

I’m making my first comic. It feels like I’ve been heading here the whole time. I started it in a class on processing climate grief and anxiety with comics and I even already had a poem ready for this.

New shirt!

omg LOL... I'm still in the process of adding styles, but omg! if there was ever a shirt to get in orange, right??

I got to talk about Mothership HackerMoms AND slip in a quote from one of my all-time favorite authors, Sheri S Tepper. Very exciting. Much squee. <3 (I do think I sound nervous, but whatever.) kpfa.org/episode/wome...

It's true. And obviously, it would have to be bipartisan.

I have had this conversation at work at least twice this week. There are lots of things to have major wobblies about, and Adobe Illustrator (in general) is not one of them.

How tf are they going to miss the opportunity to give her the Morning Joy slot.

omg adore

I can’t sit back and sip tea about how we warned them because they are not the only ones being hurt.

Ok, ok, I've polished this one plenty. I can let her be on things. Really, I can. She's strong. She'll guard your heart. vettha.threadless.com AND they're throwing a site-wide sale. Bonus. <3

Weird.

Someone asked for mermaid jokes and I was ready. :D

Want to protect good things? Here's a simple action: get a library card and go check something out once a week. You don't need to read it. Just check it out. Bonus if you check it out in a different language. Also, many libraries lend items, like tools or kitchen supplies. Check those out too.

That man is serious as a heart attack about "moving" those people. This is going to get really ugly.

Anyone else remember when Elfmom @elfquest.bsky.social cosplayed Red Sonya in the 80s and she said she had to piece together multiple wigs to get the hair big enough? I think I finally found a companion wig, if not an alternate. bikepretty.com/collections/...

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Hell yes California!!!

Way too accurate 😂

Ooh, they do! I’ve never minded mine, but I like this frame.
