I’m really proud of this 5-issue story about escapees, seeking freedom outside prison walls. Working with @ifyoucantwell.bsky.social is great! And our editor @besspallares.bsky.social (@oni-press.bsky.social) is the best!

Head to your comic shop! And find my original art at mrcrook.com/store.

This is literally the first time in all of history where someone said this sounds like Elliot Smith and then it actually sounded like Elliot Smith.

An Elliott Smith-ified version of OutKast’s Hey Ya.

Fun fact: Jimmy Stewart was had been 75 years old for over 40 years when he agreed to star in “vertigo”.

Yeah, that sounds like the kind of baloney this guy would try to pull.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

As they say, this seems hypocritical on its face (conservatives also have disabled children!) unless you recognize their project as one of eugenics

Sara Partridge, Ph.D. @sarapartridge.bsky.social · 13h

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

I feel like God was pretty clear about what he thought of Caviezel's previous performance.

A headline from entertainment weekly dated October 24, 2003. The headline reads. "mel Gibson's Jesus is struck by lightning." it goes on to say that star Jim Cavio was hit once during production of the controversial film and an assistant director was struck twice..

A classic case of irresponsible both-sidesism from the NYT. The story is that Trump and MAGA propagandists are lying about Portland to incite a conflict, not that there are different views of the matter.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

"why make AI generated videos of ICE beating and kidnapping people when we already have a lot of real ones? you don't need to convince the left it's happening!!"

the point is to muddy the waters and give the right ammo to insist ALL the videos are/could be AI if a few of them are. #political

This is a.i. The reporter has two hands behind her back and still has a third hand free to hold her mic. Looks like the text was intentionally placed to obscure the third hand. Report for misleading content.

Here's a neat trick they teach in authoritarianism school: If you purge the people who measure the effects of your policies (BLS, MMWR), you can just claim everything's great, and nobody can prove how much damage you're doing.
