"Sometimes, the things that may or may not be true are the things that a man needs to believe in the most: That people are basically good. That honor, courage, and virtue mean everything. That power and money, money and power, mean nothing..." (1 / 2)

Take that, fascists.

My friend Deanna is guest c o-host again tomorrow on Comic Book School!

Waiting on a food line while rich trash dance the night away. I’d guarantee you that Mar A Lago party threw away more food than the kitchen gave away.

Happy Halloween!

Just a reminder …

The Trump administration is engaged in human trafficking.

I’m not a violent person — last fist fight was in 6th grade — but I feel like if I hadn’t become disabled at 20, I might be in jail today for knocking some ICE heads together. I’m not saying we all need to get violent, but we need people to at least flip some damn tables.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

I just realized that two of my favorite comfort movies open with a red biplane: THE KID (Bruce Willis, Spencer Breslin) and SECONDHAND LIONS (Robert Duvall, Michael Caine, Haley Joel Osment), and it may be the same plane! The latter features one of my favorite performances by Robert Duvall.

Stop scrolling and post a GIF of two characters who bring you happiness.

More than 4000 people showed up on Saturday in Miami for No Kings Day 2.0! My latest, including my conversation with a Trump supporter, and why my 82-year old mom took to the streets to march and protest. youtu.be/rlT8ydm-cs8?...

The world lost a genial man, a genius communicator and a supreme artist. I lost a friend - beloved Drew.

This loser is weak and scared.

“All my friends murdered and raped, sometimes they hung out at my house. Get over yourself.”

Billionaires created AI because they knew no creative person would have ever agreed to work for them on such sad pathetic content.

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history. Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc

Probably worth noting that both Vance and Trump have been “joking” about murdering fishermen in these strikes.

more of this

Reading @susanapolo.bsky.social's piece on drawing horses today, and it's truly hilarious. Order your copy of the Courier today to make sure you get to read it too: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tif...

thread of the day (and a damn good suggestion)

Drew Struzan was an absolute legend who touched so many lives with his wonderful artwork. Thank you so much, Drew.

Again and again--normal, everyday people are the only ones standing up for their neighbors.

Two weeks ago we lost a giant of the movie posters world, Renato Casaro. Today we lost a modern Master of movie posters: DREW STRUZAN. I can guarantee you have at least seen 5 of his posters in your lifetime. The man has put his art on some of the most popular movie franchises (Indiana Jones, 1/4

35 years ago, I was in the ICU, having broken my neck and drowned earlier in the day while surfing, lucky to have survived. Woke up two days later to find out I was disabled for life. I’m glad to be here, but tired — I still grieve what I lost, what could’ve been…

Again, every time this happens, we literally have no idea if the masked, plainclothes people are actual government agents, or private citizens acting in party-affiliated paramilitaries. The whole point of IDs & uniforms & no masks is that we know these things.

“The very machinery designed to guard the homeland ended up treating Black dissent as a domestic threat…America has recast its gaze and fear to a new subject: the immigrant…

For my piece today at @zeteo.com i wanted to truly underscore how punishingly stupid american fascism is now. Like, my original proposed headline for this was: Our Democracy Is Imperiled Because One Old Man Won’t Stop ‘Yelling’ At His TV. zeteo.com/p/trump-addi...

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

Truth check: There is no organization named “Antifa”. No funding, no terrorism, it doesn’t exist. Antifa is short for anti-fascist which is what all patriotic Americans should be. It’s who we were in WWII. So when Trump & his toadies talk about antifa, know that it is lies & nonsense.

There is no leader of Antifa. There is no girlfriend of the leader of Antifa. They are creating imaginary people so they can justify going after real people.

Other than the obvious eugenics, I think one of the reasons acknowledging that neurodivergence is actually a normal part of humanity is that it has led to people questioning everything from ableism to child rearing practices to education and even how society functions as a whole.

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

This kind of partisan political message, under the guise of a public service announcement, is illegal on several levels.

“I know some judges who had packed up their offices in anticipation of being fired." The Trump administration’s push for more deportations is upending immigration courts. Recently terminated judges fear the changes imperil due process.

In 2017, Trump publicly accused Qatar of funding terrorism. Today, the regime announced that Qatari pilots will train at a U.S base in Idaho. I’m sure Bondi’s established and well-documented relationship with Qatari leaders & investors has nothing to do with this, or the plane. Total coincidence

I guess the moral of this story is: Don’t be shy about your experience or talents. People want what you have to offer. But they have to know you have it to offer it.

never forget that they made jimmy carter sell his peanut farm

“WIC provides critical nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, infant formula, & access to health screenings & referrals,” said the National WIC Association. “These services are not a luxury; they are a necessary lifeline.” But Trump thinks his far-right buddy is the one that needs the lifeline.

To be clear: it’s a one-day show. So check your calendars, synch your watches, dust off your back issues and y’all come down!

Rough day (week, month, year)... Lionel is helping me push through.

He said this deliberately because he is a Nazi and he wants you to know he's a Nazi who you can't touch. He also wants other Nazis to know they can be open about the fact they are Nazis too. This isn't an oversight, a fumble or an opportunity for a "heh, well actually, dummy" zinger.
