That is a perfect way of stating it, Gail! I always love SNL best when they get seriously weird and surreal and they are really leaning into that. Sarah Sherman, I think maybe, had been a big part of that? She’s delightfully bonkers.
@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."
Well said and totally agree.
There’s a sentiment among some locals that eyes on Minnesota are waning. The situation has NOT changed here.
Local resistance is tired, but of course never giving up. Please stay plugged into the news of the Minneapolis ICE occupation and donate where able.
We need endurance in this moment.
It was an absolute banger, Gail, and I can’t wait for the next issue. You and @lucaswerneck.bsky.social knocked it out of the park. Way to pay homage while looking to the future. WOW.
I’m sharing Aliya’s entire opening statement. We owe it to her, and those who no longer have a voice, to watch. youtu.be/zrcW8SZtYpI?...
Maybe Liam is too wee yet for Spider-Verse, but I ❤️ Miles Morales and Nueva York is covered in snow too!
Much thanks to @julioanta.bsky.social for the translation so that I could include both spideys.
#Comics4Liam FREE THE CHILDREN!!! Shutter forever these evil detention centers; ABOLISH ICE.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the work you all are doing. We need you!
If the Epstein files feel “too dark to be true,” that’s the point.
Denial is how systems like this survive.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."
"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

“Heartbroken but also very angry… sickening lies by the administration… reprehensible and disgusting… Alex is clearly not holding a gun… please get the truth out about our son, he was a good man…”
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."
(1/4) The Trump administration is ordering the State Department to label countries with abortion access, LGBTQ+ protections, DEI policies, and even hate-speech safeguards as human rights violators.
Uggghhh, I miss this series. Loved the pup, the boat, the team, everything. Maybe you can figure out how to bring them all together again?

Make this go viral.
Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office.
Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.
I’m officially running to be the Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee.
These are not normal times—and this cannot be a business-as-usual moment.

(2) Their dialogue alone makes me happy sigh every time I read it, even if their situation is dire. THANK YOU for writing them, and for this banger Dark Artery story which is making me want them to stay in New Orleans forever. Just wow all around.
@gailsimone.bsky.social
(1) I hope you write Rogue and Remy forever. I’m crazy for them in this book, and they have always been two of my faves. You kept them married (a seemingly tough status quo to maintain for comic characters), yet more than ever they are Marvel’s sexiest couple by a mile.
CBS reporter Scott Pelley:
This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”.
If you haven’t already shared this, please do.
