it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit

Tried to have some fun by drawing

Hey artists, if you see this, post a dog (These are consecutive panels from a short comic I made 10+ years ago when my childhood dog passed away, you can read the whole thing here: ryanvlower.com/clancy)

I just used the plural “Mountains Dew” in conversation like it was “Attorneys General” and I feel unstoppable

Works been irritating this week and I’m extra pissy about it because my boys are on spring break and I’ve barely seen them. all I can think about is if there’s a fucking nuclear apocalypse, I’m gonna feel dumb as hell that I spent my final days eating shit to pay my bills instead of loving my babies

Found a little time to work on this again tonight. Really enjoying keeping everything on one layer and just piling on color.

I’m really grateful not to be a Christian today.

dunno what it is, but there’s somethin’ about bunnies

Uh oh… having the intrusive thought where I want to pop a NyQuil gel cap in between my teeth again…

Started an honest to goodness drawing today for the first time in a really long time.

haven’t had a great deal of inspiration lately but I’ve been doing a lot of scribbling and mark making, aimlessly layering textures. this one ended up referencing a band I love called saturdays at your place

This Nazi retiree's career was destroyed by the brave people of Minnesota, who deserve our admiration and our thanks

why do anything?

why the fuck isn’t Columbo on Tubi anymore?? you literally had one job

Congratulations everyone

watch us, bitch

And just to further put a point on it, this is very explicitly the point of militant nonviolent protest. To demonstrate incontrovertibly to even the low info news consumer that agents of the oppressor are engaging in an entirely one-sided brutality against the vulnerable

Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that

just saw 4 ice agents go up to a house and knock and within 1 minute there were 30 people out whistling and they left. we will not take our foot off the gas

rightwingers see people caring about others in their community and instead of finding that inspiring they think it’s some sort of grand conspiracy because they don’t understand what it means to care for others you don’t personally know

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Doesn’t it make you crazy? Doesn’t it turn your blood to fucking gasoline?

Sayre: "My background is in international humanitarian response in conflict zones in Yemen, Haiti, Syria, Iraq, and Ukraine. What I've seen here is what I've seen there. A powerful entity violently and intentionally terrorizing people."

James Baldwin on the (white) dream of a return to normalcy: “People who shut their eyes to reality simply invite their own destruction, and anyone who insists on remaining in a state of innocence long after that innocence is dead turns himself into a monster.”

In the Twin Cities, doing the calculations about joining the rapid response rally at the scene: I’m thinking about how to tell my kids that I love them so much in case I don’t make it back home without frightening them. Talking with my wife about whether we can risk both of us going.

I would like Democrats to understand that doing literally anything is not the escalation they think it is. Doing something is DE-ESCALATION. Doing nothing is ESCALATION because it will cause people to take matters into their own hands.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

I just watched the shooting video. It's a horrific beating and execution in the middle of the street. If local and state officials don't move to arrest everyone involved for murder, they need to resign. Making arrests will de-escalate the situation. Do nothing and this is going to explode.

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

Our country’s most pathetic, cowardly, bigoted, bottom of the barrel losers are cosplaying as big strong boys in my home and terrorizing my neighbors.

The cool thing is that we know that every person out there in this cold is extra demoralizing to ICE and the administration. We fucking hate you so much and we’re prepared to stand outside in temperatures you can’t even fucking fathom to tell you that you suck absolute shit.

-14°F (-26°C) in the Twin Cities…nevertheless, cash me outside

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Isn't this a telling aspiration? To want robots to look after your kids, so you can do stuff, rather than robots to do stuff, so you can spend time with your kids? The darkness inside these shrivelled men must be like a gaping unfillable void.

I'm sorry, abolishing ICE is now off the table as the centrist compromise. The floor is now The Hague.

Is it @startribune.com policy to refer to anyone confronting ICE as a protester? This obscures the nature of what people are doing. We're not protesting ICE. We're constitutional observers documenting human rights abuses by agents of the state.

Just saw on KARE 11 that this boy was sent to a detainment facility in Texas and that his family didn't know his whereabouts for almost 24 hours.

Gaming doesn’t count as screen time. Gaming is books. Unless it’s on your phone - that is screen time. Movies are books unless they are Marvel, who produce screen time. Television is screen time.

He goes on to describe one of his officers being stopped when she was off-duty solely because she's non-white, harassed by ICE goons who slapped her phone out of her hand as she tried to record, only to be let go when she finally revealed she was a cop.

you’re telling me a roast beefed this sandwich?

It’s been a year since we lost David Lynch. His words still move me:
