I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK

Abolish Ice, fire them all, and then prosecute everyone, based on every complaint. I don't care if it takes a decade. I want these people ten years from now afraid that their friends and loved ones will find out they worked for ICE.

One year ago today, brutal and racist Border Patrol raids began in Kern County, CA. They hunted down farm workers, violently detaining our union members and terrorizing our communities. This began a year of deadly force across the US that continues today. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Thrilled to have @davidmariotte.bsky.social on board for this script. I feel like David and @beccabeean.bsky.social are the unsung power couple in comics!

I just backed The Press Guardian: The Final Chapter from @greenarcher.io on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/gre...

Tonight is Christmas Eve, when we in Iceland open presents. All the Yule Lads have already come down from the mountains, but tonight the Yule Cat arrives and he will eat all the children who weren't gifted any new clothes for Christmas. My daughters both got woollen socks so they are safe 🙏

Camped out here on Two Things Can Be True Hill: 1. The romance genre has a history deeply entwined with white supremacy, ableism, and the most reductive kind of stereotypes. Like every genre. 2. Painting all romantasy readers as “zombies” is also a reductive stereotype, and misogynist to boot.

Please enjoy my parents’ ridiculously large and fluffy cat, who has just wedged himself into a small ceramic bowl.

*deep breath* Okay. I am cranky on a lot of levels today, so. But I got a comment on another platform that said, "you are going to save us in the future. Libraries and librarians are the backbone of society." Let me tell you why I hated this seemingly innocuous comment.

This is great. Give more books!

So, since we have Yet More Discourse going on, I wanna toss out a thing because I keep seeing it come up. Writing is not always fun, and that’s actually pretty normal.

The local NPR station profiled Iris Mogul who went from starting a banned books club in high school to being named Youth Honorary Chair for the American Library Association’s Banned Books Week.

It's been one of those days 🫠

even if LLMs didn't take jobs and steal from people's work I still wouldn't be comfortable in companies using them unless they found a way for them not to eat massive amounts of resources at the expense of mainly marginalised people and just the planet as a whole, the results are not worth it.

ITS HIM???

an entire generation losing their minds that their children and grandchildren would DARE to do anything they don't understand and turning the full might of the world's imperial powers against the people they profess to love most

Started out my day by calling my congressional rep to voice my opposition to the multiple bills seeking to ban trans youth healthcare and KOSA, online ID laws and age gating bills. Literally took like 2 minutes.

Tomorrow, the House of Representatives will vote on a bill that bans gender-affirming medical care for any transgender person under 18, and threatens any medical professional providing this care to youth with 10 years in prison. Tell Congress to protect trans youth and vote NO.

I can't find the thread anymore so I'll paraphrase but People pushing AI in the arts dont understand that art is the process not the result Writing is about the words and the meaning and how they slot together. Painting is about colour and texture and the physicality of the paintbrush on paper (1/?)

Just about still day 13 of #ArtAdventCalendar in London, so please enjoy this visit of a lazuli bunting

We live in a culture where it is far more dangerous to say what a man did to you than for the man to actually do the thing to you. And that is because of all the people who know without actually knowing…That silence is its own kind of sexualized violence. www.ms.now/opinion/jeff...

In Norse mythology, the robin was known as the 'storm cloud bird' and was sacred to Thor, the god of thunder, lightning, and storms. This likely stemmed from its red coloring, which was linked to the color of lightning or the fire associated with Thor. Art my own. #ArtAdventCalendar #Folklore

hi, this is super fucked up

Posting this little 2 minute masterpiece again. It's a French supermarket Christmas ad. It's everything that McDonalds ad is not. I prefer human art and creativity over whatever the fuck that was. If that makes me a luddite and anti-tech then a] so be it and b] kindly fuck off.

while you are making your best-SFF-books of the year lists you COULD, I'm just saying, think about which of those books are relevant to the aims of the Ursula K. Le Guin Prize for Fiction, and which ones you might wanna nominate for the prize when nominations open in March just saying

more frog, again. seasonal frog

grrrr

Some thoughts on some things I've been dealing with lately. 1/6

Reviews and also tell someone in your life who isn’t in online spaces about our books. So many people who read are not online reading reviews. Spread the word anyway you can, for free.

For the record, I will be swearing in on Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower after I’m elected.

In collaboration w/ @groundwork.bsky.social & @moreperfectunion.bsky.social, we convened hundreds of volunteers from across the country to investigate Instacart’s AI-assisted pricing experiments at popular grocery stores like Target & Kroger. Read our full investigation below:

Just a reminder --

You will be visited by three spirits.

It's not enough to make comics; you have to get people to buy them! Here's a live interview with Greg Weisman and I about the Gargoyles/Darkwing Duck crossover coming out in January, now enshirned forever on YouTube www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJkC...

Take Action, San Diego!
