I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said. That is called murder when they do that. Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

friends! acquaintances! help! i'm looking to hire a game designer (living in the Netherlands) to help build games in The Hidden Folks Universe, starting with a sequel to the indie hit game Hidden Folks. know someone who's a good fit? pls forward this, ty! hiddenfolks.com/job-opening/...

My independent English language bookstore, Bradley's, is closing in Bordeaux and I wanna scream. The booksellers were wonderful, Tamari most of all, and were so inclusive of all authors. While I don't know the reasons, I bet "tariffs" and "amazon" are part of them there.

ICE = murderers We already knew they were, but they deserve every ounce of rage, protest, getting kicked out of every establishment, getting their lives turned to absolute shambles. They will not be walking free one day.

abolish ice is the moderate position to be honest. whichever candidate promises to nuremberg the ice agents has my vote at this point

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

i spent my entire comics career thinking i was slow as mud for taking 2-3 years to finish each book, until my french editor called me "fast" and when i asked what he meant by that he said that on average french artists are taking 5-10 years to finish a book

A topic that comes up with my games is that they seem one way on the page, but then “reveal themselves” when played. This is an intentional part of the design! I think games are a more powerful experience if they don’t show what they’re really doing until you spend some time with them at the table.

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day. Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me. 🧵

To this day, I vividly hear the pounding on the doors of the House Chamber, the screaming of the insurrectionists threatening to kill us. Don’t let Trump and Republicans lie to you — January 6th was a violent attack on our Capitol and our democracy.

Let's apply, friends!

My non-American friends and colleagues: ‘How are you handling the ongoing US warmongering and outright acts of war?’ Me: ‘Got some soothing music to calm the nerves’ m.youtube.com/watch?si=34e...

LETTERING TIP FOR WRITERS: If you want me to letter something, include it with the dialog. I almost never read descriptions. Many lettering scripts don't even INCLUDE descriptions. Instead of "Panel 1: The monster appears and Debbie screams." make sure you're typing "DEBBIE: AUUUUUUUGH!"

We repeat: no kings.

Demonstrators set US flag on fire on Place de la République in Paris during the rally against the American military intervention in Venezuela.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

Remember how appalled we all were in 2022 when Russia completely unprovoked attacked Ukraine? That is what we’re doing tonight with Venezuela. We are the bad guys here. Everyone who supports this is supporting unprovoked murder. Fuck every last one of them

They practiced on Gaza. A reminder to stand up against injustice and atrocity everywhere. Because it’s morally required of us. But also because if they get away with it in one place, they try it in another and another and another.

Maybe the correct response is showing those people the X-rays of my previously broken bones and when they say ‘it’s gross,’ I can respond ‘it’s how I feel about genAI.’

If another person shows me, a working artist and writer, their genAI art of them and their kids, I’m gonna cut someone’s hands off

I Who Have Never Known Fear am making soupe d’oignons for my French in-laws.

Here’s to more than surviving in 2026, and helping others to do the same. 💚

My 2025 comics are all free to read online, but I’ve made a digital bundle for anyone who wants to show support — $10USD for seven comics (70 pages total), with a host of process files available for another $5. All the money goes to my collaborators. Check it out and share if you are so inclined:

Ready for Season 2 of Alien: Earth

Women would rather go extinct as a species than be with the losers creating or engaging with this shit. Top tier bottom feeders.

Reading this short essay/statement/scream into the void about genAI by @anthonymoser.com and I wholeheartedly agree. anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

This is just going to always be my go-to response to this kind of thing anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

"the country's first desert" 🇧🇷 We don't know how to turn Mars into Earth but we know how to turn Earth into Mars.

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.

"Academics literally cannot make genAI go away" we also can't make underage drinking go away and we're not advocating for installing bar carts in every classroom.

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

A warning from the lawyer representing the unjustly fired Oklahoma TA! Beware of GFM scams: her client is NOT crowdfunding at this time.

I know I have mastered conversational and slightly drunk French by explaining ‘all Hallmark Christmas rom-coms’ while a dubbed movie with Lacey Chabert and that guy from Ugly Betty aka The America Ferrera vehicle plays in the background like a PowerPoint - and everyone understands.

Periodic reminder that Jesus was a Palestinian Jew & refugee. He was not blue-eyed, pale, & blond. He was part of a marginalized group with few legal rights in an occupied land. He was poor. The whole Christmas thing? His parents were fleeing a genocide.
