it’s really important to have publications like People covering this because it’s going to get seen by so many people who don’t consume political media

NEW: Jonathan Ross is former National Guard and Border Patrol and has been part of ICE's SWAT equivalent, a team leader overseeing FBI, ATF, and IRS agents, and a firearms instructor, according to testimony obtained by WIRED. This is from @hudsongiles.bsky.social and me:

We remember Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez

Every one of them is head over heels to crush artists creating consensual imagery and they don't give a shit about csam. Real revenge porn and csam is happening in front of their eyes and they shrug. Evil, stupid, lazy politicians. Rotten sludge staining the carpet in the capitol

Sirens and choppers, on and off all day. It's exhausting.

I would almost respect some of y'all for being cowards if you openly admitted it. There's no shame in being afraid; fear's a natural, human response to danger & the unknown. But being a coward while dogpiling on other folks & demanding that somebody else save you is bitchly behavior. Fuck you.

If this is appalling and upsetting and awful to you? If you can not believe we are here Why ISN’T your first question … why did it take me this long and how did we get here ?

Playing around with this laptop makes me feel like I just took the Express bus to the future (complimentary) I keep being fascinated by the most mundane features, like a backlit keyboard or topside speakers. I feel like Rip Van Winkle, only younger & more easily amused

I try my very best to work with artists & writers to help them get their stories across as clearly as possible. Not just so they can get them in tip-top shape to show the world, but because I know how much it sucks to have an idea in your head that you feel like nobody's gonna understand.

1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

5 years ago today, my phone notifications were going absolutely apeshit as everyone I knew outside of DC was checking to see if the city was a smoldering crater, & if my family & I were OK. It was a wild fuckin' day. We were safe all the way uptown, but our flabbers were well & truly gasted.

HEY PUBLISHERS: pay attention to this entire thread; and recognize that a HUGE part of the problem is assigning comics projects to editors with no comics knowledge or experience. Editing comics is a discrete discipline, and when you don't recognize that, you fuck both creators and yourself over.

I thank every deity every day that my mother is so technologically illiterate that she never once saw social media as even remotely enticing. If I had to untangle ai slop memes AND spam calls/texts/emails for her, I'd look like Steve Harvey from the stress.

gumshoe real as fuck for this

I get these all the time on YouTube, & it's like they're desperately trying to get me to be straight again by showing me the most mid looking dudes imaginable Even if that were possible, Computer, I'll be cold in the ground before I marry a reddit mod

I've been laughing about this shit like a madwoman

For the first time in over a decade, I have a laptop that works! It's officially OVER for you hoes! (complimentary)

Writes this down so i can use it later because DAMN

the way i know i am ready to move on with my life is i no longer feel the desperate need to explain anything to anyone anymore lol. i'm tired and disabled and i'm not explaining shit

So Trump successfully bullied a good man and his family. Because winning over Harris Walz wasn’t enough. Trump wanted to destroy him. Walz is making the right decision for his family. But the success of Trump’s grotesque bullying campaign is yet another frightening step in our national descent.

Been trying to move a bit more intentionally the past few days WRT doing stuff that's good for morale. So far, I've gone to the botanical gardens, a Black art photo exhibit, & finally a trading card show as an attempt to bond with Sibling. Getting jumpscared by Toupé Fiasco's big mug was weird.

Hey so fuck this

i know nobody asked, but slop evader (chrome & forefox extension) does a good job of removing all the ai spam from search results

You don’t have to want kids or even enjoy being around them. But it’s also worth unpacking why kids simply existing, learning, or having unmet needs reads as “annoying,” “unlikeable,” or “bad behavior.” This collective discomfort with noise, need, & vulnerability is why many ADULTS are struggling.

RICO charges dropped against ‘Stop Cop City’ defendants. “A Georgia judge on Tuesday said he will toss the racketeering charges against all 61 defendants accused of a years-long conspiracy to halt the construction of a police and firefighter training facility..." apnews.com/article/atla...

The venn diagram of people that tell marginalized Americans that we should flee the US if we hate it here so much and people that don't even like minorities in their own countries is a flat fucking circle lmao Shut your Beans On Toast ass up, Quincy

I wish someone would call me a baddie for staying in the US when they're from a country with a strict "no darkies" policy that does nothing but **** all over refugees.

And just to stand by what I said: I’m out here experiencing joy and whimsy while also knowing I will keep up with the world as I continue forward. You can have a fun food and be up to date on how to reach out to your lawmakers or whatever else makes you feel involved and active You can do both!

D&D players that actively try to be the ~☆qUiRkIeSt☆~ person in the party 🤝 hecklers at comedy shows 🤝 good singers doing karaoke Intense middle child energy

I'm so fucking tired of helicopters flying over my house.

I hope 2026 is kind to us all

My therapist said for 2026 we doing whatever makes us happy.

I will draw her more different clothes to wear in the new year. #Lilimon #digimon #デジモン

Naruto run into the data centres they can't stop us all

Happy birthday, Dad. 17 birthdays without you so far, and it never gets any less weird to think about.

Last year on NYE, my keys fell out of my pocket on my way home, & I didn't realize it until I had gotten all the way to my last stop. I had to double back downtown & scramble to find them before a car crushed them. This year, my ass is on the couch & staying put. Muuuuch less stressful.

If you're feeling stressed about the new year, just remember that January is literally the Tuesday of months. It's boring, cold & quiet. If nature herself can't make that shit pop, don't beat yourself up for not doing anything substantial next moth, either. "Don't plant seeds in frozen ground."

If there's 2 things I'm proud of myself for this year, it's been getting more dedicated to freelancing & working harder to do things that bring me a clearer sense of self. The former has made me feel so constructive & hopeful, while the latter fills in a gap I've struggled with closing for years.

I think most people who aspire to be career writers should internalize that if you can’t pay your bills with it, you shouldn’t go full time freelance. its extremely hard to do and most people can’t do it. I can’t!

Boss: Hey don't forget to give me your pick for Book Of The Year! Me, panicked: Sure! Angel on my shoulder: Go with that cute manga about the invisible man & his blind girlfriend ♥️ Rats in my brain: DO THE MILLENNIAL BL WHERE THEY BE SMANGIN & STRESSED Boss: ... sooo? Angel: Don't! Rats: DIH Me:

You ever see a sentence so funny that it makes you angry? Cuz I'm in the back of this rideshare FUMING, baby

lady looks like she's about to ask the ghostbusters if they're gods.

The morning started off kinda rough, but I'm gonna do my best to get through today. Mer Crims, y'all.

To whomever in my neighborhood that decided that Christmas '25 needed fireworks to properly celebrate Baby!Jesus, I need you to shut that shit down EXPEDITIOUSLY It's DECEMBER put them shits AWAY

Update: Aftrr calling around, we were able to take the toys to a local firehouse! Thanks for the reposts & advice, y'all ❤️
