Impossible to sum up my feelings in a Bluesky post. As good as everyone said. The stream of consciousness chapters near the end are some of the most devastating prose I've ever read. I may post fuller thoughts when I've collected them. ππ
oh god yeah this one hits like nothing else. the greatest southern gothic has ever been.
Glad to see the Met Police are tackling dangerous criminals like *checks notes* the Quakers.

Great deep dive on the Dark Horse situation and Embracer Groups ongoing fucks up.
This is a really interesting thread on the challenges to activists communicating and sharing documents securely.
Proton seem to be trying to scrub this from Bluesky. Extremely disappointing for a company that uses the optics of social justice to sell its product #Proton #StopCopCity
"This truly unique work of graphic nonfiction reveals to English-speaking readers the experiences of Afro-Brazilian enslaved people and belongs in every academic library." β Booklist

I'm a little too sick to start a new novel tonight but I still wanted to read something with a little meat on the bone. ππ
Lil sneak peek of the new cartoon, it is still in progress!!! I am just extremely busy casting spells and suchlike. #wizard #uwucore #animation
I know itβs difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you canβt Do The Work when youβre starving.
I remember when this happened in Russia in like 2012 and everyone in the UK and US being like... what the fuck that's so heinous! Just an observation on how much the overton window has moved into the 'fucked' territory.
This is what I need cis folks to understand.
It's been a decade.
Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it

seeing a lot of discussion on the timeline about accurately illustrating trans women. it's easy to draw a character and convey to the audience she's trans: just draw her way, way more attractive than all the other characters
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

These new detention camps in the US (the warehouses for people), they'll need planners, architects, engineers, all the rest. Noting, YOU CAN REFUSE to do this work. No one is going to care later if you thought you could make things better inside the system. You will be as responsible as anyone else.
Pride AND Prejudice AND Knuckles? In this economy?
"that which does not kill us makes us stronger" - guy who went mad from syphilis then starved himself to death after destroying the only remaining manuscript of his final book.
the quote "that which does not kill us makes us stronger" juxtaposed with a bullet
lowkey funniest juxtaposition of text and image you could choose tbh
The cover of Blessings by Chukwuebuka Ibeh. A young man in a white vest stands with a pensive expression, skin covered in a net pattern.
Mother and son separated by the stern hand of patriarchy. Lovers torn apart by the hateful hand of politics. Lives destroyed to preserve an evil notion of "decency." Bigotry comes from people, not from monsters. Moments of warmth and love and laughter are worth living for regardless.
Loved it ππ
