The Washington Post is just straight up spreading misinformation. Total witchcraft. Not a single person at the Post has any basis for the claim that "increased enforcement of tougher laws" either happened at all or reduced murder. Maybe someone should write a book about it...

I created a public spreadsheet that other publishers can add to so people can decide whether different fairs might be effective for them. Please add to it! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

NEW: 2020 footage said to be in 2025. A neighbor who keeps reappearing in the same clip, said to be on different days & months. A broadcast from elsewhere suggested as Portland. How Fox News misled its viewership -- which may have included the president. www.propublica.org/article/port...

For people who are interested in and working to develop abolitionist interventions and groups to help keep each other safe, we have a new resource that aims to help demystify a few things about how we create these organizations and formations, and how we sustain them. Read it here:

"laying hands and praying for our president" —@johnnydamm.bsky.social transforms Black Magic #26 into an eerie tale of evangelism anmly.org/ap29/johnny-...

These are all flagrant lies, unsourced yet printed in a newspaper that allegedly fact checks things. The rest of it is meandering panic-bait that treats jail breaking LLMs. They don’t even describe the virus! They just said someone made one. Bullshit!

How I depicted our governor in Monster Crime. Holds up!

Reposting my Jeff Bezos comic for "Prime Day." Don't support this maniac's plan to pollute the universe. Shop local and independent! (Comic directly quotes Bezos speaking at the 2024 New York Times Deal Book Summit.)

I am once again asking us all to recognize that the Luddites were not anti-technology but anti-exploitation. If they were around today they would have joined you in a call for technology that serves everyone’s, not just the bosses. You *are* a Luddite Bernie, and you should be proud to be one

As boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla prepared to set sail toward Gaza, a representative of Genoa’s Dockworkers’ Union declared that if anything happened to the flotilla, workers would “block everything.” When the flotilla was attacked, the reaction was swift: a 24-hour general strike was called.

So much vile behavior from Northwestern here. First they assign mandatory "antisemitism" training created by "a pro-Israel advocacy group." In the training, "At one point the narrator compares critics of Israel to former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Honestly, not giving up much here…

If you are involved in the arts in any way, you should know about Fall of Freedom. Let’s do something about this, together www.falloffreedom.com

“Memphis resident KeShaun Pearson states, ‘We are breathing dirtier air, experiencing higher rates of asthma, and our children are spending more time in emergency rooms due to the misguided ambitions of billionaires who don’t see us as human.’”

The US has now vetoed six UN Security Council cease fire resolutions since the beginning of Israel’s war on Gaza

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

not sure how else to use this place right now except check everything 3x before sharing, post more indie news outlets from all over, 'de-escalate all conflict that isn't with the enemy'

Activists in Seattle just sent us this update from the Tesla showroom in South Lake Union. This is the heart of Seattle's tech core, blocks from Amazon HQ and Google's Seattle campus. We can win. We are winning. Keep pushing. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall

It’s not a double standard this *is* their standard. Speech for them not for us. Violence for us not for them. The sooner we understand this the better.

Apropos of nothing, I finished this stunner of a book by Gretchen Felker-Martin a couple days ago. Perfect ending!

A real privilege to be interviewed by Ian Thomas for @comicsjournal.bsky.social. Such incisive, probing questions: Ian got me thinking about comics and how I approach the medium in ways I hadn't before.

love this superb interview with my pal/collab johnny damm!

Really interesting interview about the technique and theory behind Mr Damm's collage comics.

New interview in @comicsjournal.bsky.social! Really loved having this conversation with Ian Thomas, which was challenging in all the best ways. And it's amazing to be featured in the The Comics Journal, which I've been reading since I was a teenager. www.tcj.com/comics-are-t...

NEW: Extraordinary scenes in Brussels today. Almost a quarter of a million people on the streets marching for Palestine, calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza. This footage was captured by freelance photojournalist, Wahaj Bani Moufleh 👏

𝗡𝗢𝗪: F*** Trump, F*** ICE!” Hundreds are chanting in Chicago as they march through downtown, protesting ICE and the possible deployment of the National Guard.

Today's #WeAreAllDC protest in downtown Washington, D.C. demanding an immediate withdrawal of federal troops from the District and an end to the federalization of the local police department.

Not saying that abolitionists have all the answers but I AM saying that we had a clearer understanding of the extant problems and were asking the correct questions.

For reasons, I am going to share that we published a good children's book in April called "Prisons Must Fall." www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2588-p...

Regarding the tragic death of Adam Raine, there are already narratives forming that blame vague "dangers of AI" or a broader moral panic. But this is not a story about the faceless perils of superintelligence. It's about a $500 billion tech company's core software product encouraging child suicide.

UPDATE: A fifth journalist has been killed: Ahmed Abu Aziz has succumbed to his injuries.

Letting Google set the narrative about the environmental costs of "AI" is like letting tobacco companies set the narrative about the effects of second-hand smoke by measuring the health effects of sitting through one neighbor smoking one cigarette.

NEW: In what appears to be one of the largest expansions of surveillance in IL history, we found hundreds of new Flock license plate readers—all paid for by AG Kwame Raoul's office in the last 3 years. Issues with Flock Safety's data sharing practices are mounting. Will our sanctuary status hold?

We mapped all of the grant recipients, the amount they were awarded by year, and how they spent the funds.

@joeyneverjoe.bsky.social first reported on this pattern in May. It's a familiar tale: corporate backed media worked in tandem with police to gin up fears of mass theft rings. Prosecutors jumped onboard. In CA, hundreds of millions of dollars are now promised to cops to protect retail interests:

And let’s remember that the ORC crimewave was a thoroughly debunked lie. (I wrote a comic book on this subject.)

The bad faith and bad info and bad laws and bad funding re: retail theft continue to pay negative dividends Nobody made IL choose this path

surprise i just dropped a new article! i had a lot of thoughts about how people don't know how to engage with fiction, which ties into chatgpt delusion & book bans among other things. big thanks to @cxorlando.bsky.social for telling me to write about it when i posted a throwaway insta story

To be clear, what NOLA Councilmembers are proposing isn’t just facial recognition —they already have that. They want to run facial rec *on everybody at all times* without warrant or suspicion of a crime. This is without precedent in the US & and an almost unfathomable assault on the 4th Amendment.

“Today, we’re announcing a public safety emergency,” Trump says Currently up on the Department of Justice’s website: www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

BREAKING: One of the most important and prominent reporters on the ground in Gaza has been Anas Al Sharif. He - and several other Al Jazeera journalists - have just been assassinated by Israelis forces whilst in their press tent in central Gaza. Speechless.

Particularly proud of this figure I found for Jeff Bezos and his ranting about how we need space travel in order to begin polluting on other planets. Uncanny, right?
