this is really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really fucking bad. the FDA is still open to the public on this. make your voice heard www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art) Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money www.federalreserve.gov/apps/proposa...

still a fav~ #howlsmovingcastle

NO NO NO YOU DON’T GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL tell everyone you know www.freetaxusa.com

You need to call your reps and demand that they OPPOSE: -the KIDS Act -KOSA -the Screen Act -Sammy's Law -the App Store Accountability Act And additionally, oppose: -reforming/sunsetting Section 230 -online age verification/ID laws www.congress.gov/members/find...

H.R. 7661 would harm so many publishers, authors, and readers. Only the smallest sliver of human experience would make it onto shelves. If you think kids deserve the world, you are against this bill - please read this article and call your reps.

Here you go! I hope this one catches on a little too!

I need another 2000 views on my videos in the next week to remain monetised after I took time off to grieve for my dad. Here's a link to my most popular video, so you might enjoy it if you give it a watch; youtu.be/n-mCCaaxQH8

This is eugenics. Genocide. An attack on science, medical ethics, bodily autonomy, and human rights. Where is the outcry from the biomedical community? Trans people aren't just abstract patients and research participants: We're your friends, family, and co-workers. Speak up before it's too late

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. tcpipeline.org

I've written up a brief script for anyone who wants to call or write your representatives regarding this bill (yes, even the ones you think won't care). PLEASE DO THIS IF YOU ARE ABLE. This bill *cannot* pass. You can find your representatives here: www.congress.gov/members/find...

Feb donation was $120 to wilsonfoundationmn.org/mpls-response-recovery/ If you can donate to help keep Minnesota Families housed this month, rent is coming up fast! RN on my patreon all proceeds are being matched and donated. THIS STANDS even if you only subscribe for Feb!

Tim Walz isn't declaring an eviction moratorium in Minnesota, so many families affected by ICE are at risk of eviction in a few days. Please donate to the rent funds at keepMNhoused.com if you have some scratch.

Hey, friends! @ziibiing.com and the awesome folks at StandWithMinnesota have launched #keepMNhoused! Check out keepMNhoused.com and kick in to help folks affected by ICE stay in their homes! ALSO, artists, please join the call for art to help spread the word! (art here by the great @trungles.com)

New from me: It's time to get rid of networked cameras. buttondown.com/creativegood... I feel strongly about this piece, so here's a thread - 1/

Heads up that there's a new short story up on my Patreon~ Post-society sci-fi about future archeologists in a Mad Max type setting. patreon.com/comicgoblinart All February proceeds are matched and donated to Mutual Aid for Minneapolis. Last month I was able to donate $50+

Just a reminder that @avivor.bsky.social really took my script and *ran* with it on MIDST: The Valorous Farmer. The body language and expressions are so freaking good✨ This whole team is incredible, Quinton Winter's colors and Jim Campbell's lettering (the SFX!) 🤩 cover by @chamonkee.bsky.social

COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN! Info, TOS and link to the request form here: commissions-veit.carrd.co Slots are limited, but there's going to be a waitlist for the next batch if we run out!

Year of the Fire Horse

I can tell you exactly when the media narrative changed: It was January 29, the day Chuck Schumer told everyone to pipe down because Democrats had agreed on demands they'd hold DHS to in return for funding.

Thinking back on work I did for Draco Gaming: Here’s a set of breath weapon doodles I did for Dragonbond’s array of dragons. It was fun being somewhat creative with the general idea of breathing “fire”.

Evka and Antoine | The Lovers 3/3 tarot card made for @dragonageannual.art ✨ and that's a wrap! i've loved making these illustrations! and it's always a delight to collaborate with the DAA team 🫶 #art | #dragonage | #dragonageannual

Please don’t forget about us and our neighbors! standwithminnesota.com

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

DID YOU KNOW? If you have Delta Sky Miles, you can donate them to help a kidnapped-and-released person fly home! They are set free on the streets of El Paso or another Texas town with no phone, no money, nothing at all. Your miles can get them back to their loved ones!

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

Oh my gosh, actual good news for indie authors distributing wide

Can comfirm from MN, as can anyone who lives here, that not a THING has changed except little Bovino isnt peacocking around the streets anymore. And there hasn’t been a third high-profile murder of a white person yet. But the gestapo attacks haven’t stopped. At all! bsky.app/profile/jyse...

As such, demand for assistance remains high - especially for help with rent and groceries. Please visit standwithminnesota.com to see how you can help financially.

I made the first donation from Patreon proceeds today! To: secure.givelively.org/donate/pills... This fund helps Minnesotan families with housing support, utilities, medicine, health care needs. If you want to double your impact for Feb AND get cool art check out patreon.com/comicgoblinart

New comic just went up on Patreon-- This one is free to read since I've posted it publicly before. Patreon.com/comicgoblinart And! Reminder! All proceeds from February will be matched and donated to mutual aid in Minneapolis. I just made our first donation today!

Greetings from inside the economic blockade zones of Minneapolis and St Paul! Don’t look away, please. We need you. It’s been a month and they’re trying to destroy us.

Crystal Heart was a delight to work on with Aviv and Eran! It's probably one of my favorite books in my library.

Do you run a comics review website and I haven't sent you a review copy of #CrystalHeart? Please let me know and I'll throw one in your inbox so fast it'll rip a hole in the digital time-space continuum. (sharing is highly appreciated!)

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

It's a new year, now's a great time to start calling the PayPros because they aren't expecting to get bugged again. More and more games are getting cancelled for Stateside releases or forced to get censored (see the Dispatch release on Switch) and with the X stuff going on, go yell about that

Why would I stare into eyes that no human is staring back from or that no human drew? Why would I invest my heart into images that no person invested their heart into? Why would I read words no human wrote?

It's almost as if money is hoarded by the already wealthy and the lower middle to lower class uses it to.... BUY things.

In solidarity with the boycotts, my indie books have officially been pulled from Amazon. If you have *also* pulled your books from Amazon for whatever reason, let me know. I'm putting together some more discovery for people whose books no longer benefit from or support Amazon.

also cannot stress enough, re: that chain post going around about COMIC TIPS: if you work digitally, don't be afraid of tattoos, scars, patterns, emblems, etc. but DO make assets and brushes of them and learn how to use the transform/liquify tools for seamless (or seamless enough) application.

From the Archive! This is public on my Patreon, but there are more and fancier things (writing, behind-the-scenes, newer illustrations) for patrons. Reminder that proceeds from Jan/Feb will be matched and donated to mutual aid in Minnesota. Big thank you to everyone has subscribed already!

I'm excited to announce that I compiled all of my daily comics from 2025 into a full book, got them printed, and officially have them available on my shop: kat-baumann.square.site More importantly, I will be donating all the profits from this book to to a mutual aid organization in my city. (1/3)

Yeah, I recommend not using the patreon apple app to join. Just go on the website, it's 1. cheaper for YOU to support your favorite creatures and 2. All the money you give goes to the creator.

Be ready to support Trump's next targets. The Twin Cities (pop 740K) are too tough, so the bully looks for a smaller kid to beat up: Portland ME (pop 68K)? China stomped Trump in his Trade War, so he tariffs S Korea. Bullying the vulnerable is his only strategy is.gd/WRTptp/CNN is.gd/GYcr1L/Maine

Bovino's gone but it's not over: they're ramping up. They're going to use Fort Snelling for "parking approximately 300-500 vehicles . . . a ready room space for 500-800 CBP personnel . . . access to a magazine to store munitions."
