In the midst of all of this crap news, I’d like to remind y’all that I had a cameo in one of Dav Pilkey’s comics, about a year ago. It’s about my work on Fredric Wertham. Check out some of the images!
I appreciate having my work cited in academic pubs, but this citation is priceless. 📚 #libcomix

Goodnight, friends.
If you're traveling, stay safe. If you're spending time with folks who make you anxious or don't respect you, breathe and protect your boundaries.
If you're by yourself, know that someone cares. If you're with people who love you, savor it and share it.
I love you.

"Guess who?" Woody Woodpecker made his debut 85 years ago today (Nov. 25, 1940) opposite Andy Panda in the animated short "Knock Knock.” Created by Walter Lantz and Ben Hardaway and originally voiced by Mel Blanc, Woody has since appeared in film, TV, comics, and as mascot for Universal Pictures.

Abraham, a physician who is not board certified in any specialty & has made a career as an extremely partisan politician, is now #2 at CDC.
Despite working full time in political office, he is one of the top prescribers of ivermectin & he oversaw the end of Louisiana’s public vaccination campaigns.

CDC Data Indicates We’re 2 Months Away From America Losing Its Measles Elimination Status
We've talked a lot about measles throughout this year, which is particularly frustrating given that America officially eliminated this disease from its endemic state back in 2000. How we got here is a very simple story: too many people refused to vaccinate themselves and/or their children, giving the virus a foothold which it had been deprived for nearly a quarter of a century.
