Jinenger, an eccentric, energetic mountain yam, is an unofficial mascot for Shiroi City.

ICE in airports means comic book conventions are gonna end up whiter as people of color decide not to travel and I think the industry needs to grapple with that.

We're upping our comics program game! Introducing our first formalized comics foundations course, taking place at our studio for 6 weeks starting in April~ taught by the incomparable team of @floodkiss.bsky.social & @raysdrawlings.bsky.social Register here: prairiecomics.com/product/maki...

ICE isn’t gonna just hang out passing around bins and looking in a few bags. They’re gonna beat people up, arrest people, abuse women, and be the fucking Nazi thugs they are.

Stunned by all the “ICE isn’t gonna do anything more than what TSA already does” rhetoric. Untrained white supremacists who’ve been told by bosses they’re not subject to laws will have POC and women lined up in front of them to grope and abuse and they don’t even have to chase them.

kathleen gave me this advice at PCF years ago and workshops and teaching are like 1/3 of my income now. teaching pays less, but you get more hours. and anywhere respectable will try to pay you min CARFAC fees for workshops, talks, etc. also seconding it's a part of my public and community practice.

today i made myself doodle a full page of my #sketchbook and received stock of the shirts i designed for my local community radio's fundrive 🐟💿✳️🐟✨✴️🐟

You can give all your love to another even when loving yourself seems impossible. That doesn't lessen your heart's truth. But starting to care for yourself doubles the love —you give more to them, and beautifully back to you. Your soul is worthy of gentleness. Nurture it. You're enough🏳️‍⚧️🌈

genuinely... how do i stop feeling detached from everything... it's not the buddha kind either 😭

An immigration judge has ordered the removal of Liam Consejo Ramos, a Minnesota toddler who was detained by ICE. The politics of citizenship might seem like the detail that distinguishes Liam’s story from the stories of our kids. But his innocence, like the innocence of all kids, is unimpeachable.

Deadline to sign has been extended to March 23!! Get in here, Canadian cartoonists!

Palestinians have been astute caretakers of what little land left to them and then Israel comes in with white phosphorus weapons and plans to build AI data centers on the rubble and people are still “wha does Gaza have to do with climate change”

thinking about union health insurance and rrsp. like get me on That™️

The fact that almost every full time comic artist of my generation (esp the marginalized folk) who lives in North America wants to quit their job and get a 9-5 is so very depressing.

I've been drawing a lot lately and just not posting it. I got carried away with my hourlies (see that Feb 23 start date there?) but I want to have them ready so I can do an hourlies compilation for CAKE, and I've also been re-toning Crash Coral in preparation for a ✨new website✨+ CAKE.

Watched the Chinese animated film "Nobody," a huge hit in its native country but little-known here in the U.S. Which is a shame, because this is a delightful fantasy-adventure, inspired by the 16th Century Chinese novel Journey to the West, about a team of nobodies - a warthog, gorilla, weasel

leftist organizing having a perpetual endemic problem with men in positions of power sexually abusing women and what's to show for it is the complete irrelevance and abdication of an organized left in the imperial core at a time of existential crisis

Space Type (@spacetypeco on Insta) has put together this awesome catalogue of zine fest, art book fairs, conventions, etc.! It's global and entirely crowd-sourced, so if you know of art events local to you, you can add 'em no matter where you are! artbookfairs.com

there's a little tag game going around instagram among local nerdy/fandom artists that's like "tag 10 artists you support" and people i do little fan events keep tagging me???!!! sk,dhudjkhguoajbj dnv csjkdfn WAUGHH

the consequences of my sedentary lifestyle and sometimes destabilizing menthol eel-ness is that i need to build a team to move really heavy things and the people lifting often excludes myself...

the thing i hate about my city is that people don't know how to queue for the buses...

honestly watching a comics imprint go from telling me my pitch for hello sunshine was the first time the team unanimously agreed on one, with no caveats on the content, to "we only want things that are exactly 100% like dog man" in the space of 5 years is making me so depressed haha

David Zaslav will make $887 million from the Paramount deal.

this is my favorite interview now

The My Lai Massacre in Vietnam is a United States war crime committed on 16 March 1968. It was a mass killing of as many as 500 unarmed Vietnamese villagers by U.S. soldiers during the American War.

Janice Lukes stumped for Obby Khan after he targeted trans kids, and here she is calling for the execution of drug users.

nasal spray, eye drops, zoplicone, a week of proper meals, fried chicken, and one walk along the river could fix me.

watching myself passively disengage in everything during my currently low period. also idk where my phone is so there's like a lot of effort necessary if i try ti communicate about this

Saw an ad for a travel agency on youtube that was like "you morons, an AI has never been anywhere, how can it tell you where to go? Talk to us humans for your travel needs and stop being stupid babies." I'm paraphrasing but the tide is turning. Keep making that shit toxic.

hi speaking as a narrative lead on a GOTY and long time builder of VO pipelines, this has literally been a solved problem for ages with text to speech and other tools so we haven’t ever needed evil shit like genAI for this solved ass problem. This is basic shit.

Comic I did for Lesbian Visibility Week earlier this year about how holding a girl's hand for the first time changed me so fundamentally that I learned self love. (1/2)

POD DROP! Author and cartoonist Michael DeForge on the No Arms in the Arts campaign that contributed to Scotiabank’s divestment from the Israeli weapons maker Elbit Systems. @michaeldeforge.bsky.social @palestinestudies.bsky.social @canadiandimension.bsky.social tiny.cc/4570101

Absolutely horrific. Canada’s massive border bill, C12, has been adopted after third reading at Senate. C-12 will become the country's largest machinery of deportation: deporting refugees without hearings, retroactive bars, and mass status cancellation. A mirror of anti-migrant ICE violence.

No book is going to turn kids into someone else. But books will regularly show kids other people like them and show those kids they're not alone. And they'll show kids other types of people who also exist. There is a large proportion of the population who are terrified of this.

im grabbing your hand to tell you. it’s not too late to start wearing a mask again. it’s better to wear a mask 1/4 of the time (or whatever your percent looks like) than not at all. there’s no shame in starting to be covid safe again even if you havent been for a long time. its okay
