In 1951, Barbara Rose Johns led a walkout of her segregated high school. Now, her statue will stand in the same spot in the Capitol where Robert E. Lee's once was. Even as this Admin tries to erase the Civil Rights struggle, we must continue the work to recognize these heroes.

Found the names of both of my senators further down the list. Guess I get to call them up today and yell at them, 🤬

“Chris who would always make the best peace tried to break it up. He was stabbed in the throat. He died almost instantly. Although I haven't seen him in more than ten years I know I'll miss him forever. I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anybody?”

A crossover/team-up featuring Jonah Hex and Rocket Raccoon, who're chronally displaced in the Hyborian Age - only to meet and be assisted by Conan the Cimmerian and Red Sonja in order to return home. I'd have either @simonroy.bsky.social or @farel.bsky.social, if not *both*, illustrate it.

Okay, we're opening up the floor to everyone's opinions on the Jonah Hex movie....good, bad, or ugly, I wanna hear it!

Lots of great ideas in Alex Jaffe's original thread, but of course I have to highlight a Hex shoutout. I also want an addendum that DC finally reprint ALL of Michael Fleisher's work, including the Jonah Hex Spectacular. Also reprint Albano & DeZuniga's "Zany" Hex parody because it's hilarious.

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around women’s experiences and needs.

In 1931 in Kiel, Germany, Rachel Posner, the wife of a rabbi, took this picture. On the back of the photograph she wrote: “‘Death to Judah,’ so the flag says. ‘Judah lives forever,’ so the light answers.” The light will continue to answer the darkness. Happy Hanukkah.

"Progressivism is as deeply rooted in American history as reaction." heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/december-1...

A reminder that most Americans who are life-long citizens have nothing OTHER than a Real ID to prove their citizenship. This is CBP’s chief enforcer saying that ID doesn’t count.

Yeah, this happened.

Democratic leadership didn’t want to stick their necks out for him. The GOP didn’t want him even referred to as a “Maryland man.” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, his congressional representative fought for him. And we should never forget any of this. apnews.com/article/abre...

No more use of "Women" or "Females", but "Girls" is apparently okay, thereby infantilizing half the human population.

According to the article, this is a single-shot percussion derringer. Frankly, this thing almost looks homemade to me.

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen. “I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...” She screamed “Leave me alone...” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

More explanation in the comments of the original thread. Overall, this take isn't exactly wrong, especially when you look at his weirder stories like the Vertigo era. I also recall that Gray & Palmiotti framed their Jonah Hex pitch as "Punisher in the Old West"...his archetype comes in many shapes.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar. (as an aside...this is "hard mode"?)

"We hear a lot these days about how American democracy is doomed and the radical right will win. Maybe. But the beauty of our system is that it gives us people like Doris Miller. "Even better, it makes us people like Doris Miller." heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/december-6...

Welcome my sisters we have been given another beautiful day to live free and destroy our enemies 🥰🥰🥰 Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

Rudolph gets all the love, so let’s talk about the names of Santa’s other reindeer. dasher | noun | one that dashes dancer | noun | one that dances prancer | noun | one that walks or moves in a spirited manner Ok, those three are easy to understand. 🧵⬇️

Is anyone in the Republican Party ever going to hold anyone accountable for anything?

A North Texas attorney who has repeatedly described himself as a fascist and said he despises democracy wants you to vote for him. Historically, fascists rose to power in no small part by being elected to office. thebarbedwire.com/2025/12/02/j...

Today 31 years ago the PS1 was released. In honor of Sony Playstation 1's birthday lets unironically celebrate by rewitnessing the greatest (in my opinion) bit of voice acting speech on the platform from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

A full thread of Green Arrow speaking truth to power, topped off by him admitting that he used to be part of the problem. 💚

To everyone in Tennessee, there's still time to vote! 💙

I imagine that the Felon watches the footage of those boats blowing up and cackles like a madman.

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30. Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50. I’m 58 now. HIV treatment works. Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex. Ensure HIV treatment for all. End HIV stigma. #WorldAIDSDay

Let’s be louder than his hate today. Let’s honor those we lost by defending science, protecting care, and standing with the LGBTQ+ community and everyone affected by HIV/AIDS. We owe it to history, and to each other, to never go backward.

Still early on in the "fugitive" storyarc. A lawman dies while trying to bring Hex in, and since he's handcuffed to the now-dead fella, Hex pins the badge on himself and bluffs some folks into thinking *he's* the lawman instead!

It's Day 1 of #25daysofChristmasComics posting project. Showing Christmas themed covers from Superhero, Horror and Funny Books. Gotta add this one to the chain, as it came out at the exact same time as JH#34 here!

Watched it earlier this year, and yeah, it's "Vertigo Hex" levels of crazy.

Murdering crew members claiming they were smuggling drugs while pardoning a drug kingpin. Very on brand for the Trump regime.

Being a Michigander, I reckon that cryptid will be either the Dogman or the Nain Rouge.

"A judge had granted her protection, saying she could not go back to Sierra Leone because she was tortured there. So Trump sent her to Ghana--and Ghana now deporting her back to Sierra Leone, where she was tortured during the war. This is how Trump is getting around judges' orders. Pure evil."

Every Thanksgiving, I break out my Grandma's china, silverware, and lace tablecloth. As I put that all away today, I wondered if any young couples bother with registering china/silverware patterns for their wedding, or do they use inherited sets like I do?

30 years ago this September, I went to a graduate student orientation session at CMU. Learned about the area, where to shop, Pittsburgh's transit system, etc. The guy who gave the session was Scott Fahlman. The subject of this article. Inventor of the emoticon.

In contrast to the previous post about Tennessee ransacking their libraries, here's one talking about all the awesome stuff libraries provide for their communities!

FIGHT EVIL! READ BOOKS!
