I’m running for Congress because we need leaders who will fight, not fold. I recognize this moment, and I’m ready to meet it. #FightDontFold #LanderForNYC #LanderForCongress

You can purchase a copy of The BEASTS OF BURDEN OMNIBUS for the holidays. It exists.

You can pre-order a copy of NERD INFERNO for the holidays.
It looms.

Over 1,200 pages of stuff my fingerprints are on.
Both published by @darkhorse.com

The new Wormwood is one of the most cheeky, perverse, and downright inappropriate projects @templesmith.bsky.social has ever put out. It's also entertaining as hell to read. That means you absolutely HAVE to get it. In gold foil. With a sketch. You'll thank me later.
Only got 3 of the 3 pack new comics, with OA sketch, including the gold foil WORMWOOD version for now, left up in the store.

Will be the only way left to get that gold version too alas!

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

If I was in Congress, I’d have voted to release the Epstein files.

My representative won’t vote for it. He’d rather protect pdfiles.
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Good news: my health insurance costs aren’t going up.

Bad news: it’s cuz I don’t have health insurance.

Better news: I’m running for Congress to fight for health care for all.

We all need to understand a key facet of fascism. There is no end, but also there is no plan. Just an endless string of opportunities to exploit and suppress people when they do not stand up for themselves. Fascists are big dogs that look scary, but run scared when faced with a real fight.
What is the end game for these madmen?? World dominance? Hatred and poverty rife everywhere? That doesn't sound like a good world
