worth remembering, David Lynch directed βfix your hearts or dieβ specifically at transphobes. it wasnβt a generic βno mean people allowedβ statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

raises hand. i would love a little guy
comics is a lot of situations where you've never drawn something before and have to figure out really fast how to do it
lrt you will not catch me believing anything anybody with a substack says about major world events if nowhere else is reporting it. 'BREAKING! EXCLUSIVE' yeah exclusively from your head
before sharing information
1) read the article
2) examine your source (what else has the reporter done? are they real? what else is on the website?)
3) check whether any other outlets are reporting on it
ESPECIALLY IF
- it makes you feel something
- it confirms something you already believe
i put "that" before my name on my email address bc my name was already taken, which has convinced multiple book club bots to refer to me as That. dear That
i walked face first into that one
that song is my enemy because the lyrics have 'hunger's' and 'bite' close enough together that they appear when i vanity search >:(

this happened again today. i never would have expected this to be such an effective honeypot for spam. annoying that they keep getting through to the main inbox though.
with the exception of a couple pages that don't need it yet, book 2 is completely inked. hooray π
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...

If you haven't read it, well....! Get on it!
Read this thread. This is why that taboo art you don't like needs to exist. Block it if it upsets you. Move on with your life. But dont destroy the safety nets and frameworks for actual victims that would come about by forcing everything right back into another Hays Code cuz you can't press a button
quick somebody draw utena coming up from the other direction
If you're doing callout posts about artists creating fictional taboo content, you may not consider yourself a fascist, but you are one. You are their stupid tool at the bare minimum. The good news is you can stop doing that at any time
"But I hate ICE and support trans rights and etc etc" if you aid in the suppression of art, you are a fascist. One of the textbook markers of a fascist state is the suppression of art it deems "degenerate". If you have one empathetic cell left in your brain, you'll start digging into the history
