Finally off Spotify (CEO's 600 mil. to AI military tech & AI push), Duolingo (AI-first policy), Adobe (pricing/monopolistic practices & AI), working on other big tech (privacy/monopolistic practices & AI). I know it's probably futile but maybe if lots of us stop giving them our money and info...?

A family member, after informing me they did not understand my comics, followed up with "but you're having fun making them, right? That's what's most important." 💀💀💀

I just backed The Witch's Egg by Donya Todd on @kickstarter.com -- so excited for this one @averyhill.bsky.social ✨https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/averyhillpublishing/the-witchs-egg-by-donya-todd?ref=thanks-tweet

I always wanted to make one of those stacked sci-fi movie poster images, and the release day of Second Shift from @averyhill.bsky.social is a good enough reason for me. I loved making this book—I really hope you like reading it <3

It's here! 💖

"The stories complement and re-enforce each other both thematically and in tone." ICYMI I looked at @igotkittypryde.bsky.social Kit Anderson's SAFER PLACES from @averyhill.bsky.social here at @brokenfrontier.bsky.social. www.brokenfrontier.com/safer-places/

I love this festival and am so bummed I won't be there this year, but am sending a small donation in my place. Please consider the same if you can <3

there’s a lot to be angry about, but it’s still spring, and i’m still very grateful to lots of people. Thank you so much everyone for all the support on the kickstarter. I hope to make lots more stuff for you cool people. AND many many thanks as always to @averyhill.bsky.social :`)

This is an absolutely heartrending read. Becky was a much valued member of the Broken Frontier team for the best part of three years and the anger I feel as more and more details emerge only intensifies as the weeks go on. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

amazing package from @averyhill.bsky.social today! I tried to look like I belong on the cover and definitely succeeded. Also…there are 25 hours left on the kickstarter, with huge thanks to everyone who has already backed/shared/cared. So cool of you.

Dang that's awesome, thank you everyone!!

Thank you so much for this @brokenfrontier.bsky.social @andywpoliver.bsky.social -- can't say how much I appreciate it ✨💕
