"the saviors have become settlers; the iconography of protecting the innocent is rewritten as the pioneer guarding his stake... as comics attempt to set batman in the same world as his readers, the role of violence to perpetuate the state demands to be addressed" i do not write like the others

Advanced Review: Inside the mind of TROUBLED DETECTIVE
Asante Amani's crowdfunded solo crime anthology TROUBLED DETECTIVE is unlike the comics we're used to- a measured mixture of prestige, pulp.

Ian is a wonderful cartoonist and illustrator with a unique, meticulous drawing style that blows my mind. He did this amazing drawing turned screen print for me, a real eye-catcher. Highly recommended.

Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.

okay so my skyline is constantly constantly mutual aid requests, as most of us are financially drowning atm. shared palestinian accounts- which are specifically targeted and shut down by this website- make up such a tiny percentage of folks asking. this current backlash against just them? a bad look

A new study shows that Black women outpace every other group of women in workforce participation. Yet they are still paid less & retire in poverty at twice the rate of white women. This is a system. It is long past time this country started carrying them the way they have carried us.

Despite leading in education and workforce participation, Black women continue to lag in pay, wealth, and retirement security.

Ugh, probably "if you can't pay the people who make your product your company is not sustainable." or just "that's not a revolutionary publishing model--its a ponzi scheme."
