Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.

h/t @tisserand.bsky.social

Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210"

It reads:

"Dear Joel:

I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country.

I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities.

Sincerely yours,

Charles M. Schulz"

As we've always said, every attack on trans women will effect more cis women and sport will be no different as men decide who is feminine enough.

Coffee Bun's AKA "Mice Tea 2: The Squeakwel; is nearing the end of it's central story. [save for romances]

I'd say for all the TFTG centric VNs out there; CB handles it in a way that is mature, interesting and meaningful.

You can read the conclusion of Coffee Buns in the latest Early Access release! We've got more development and story, but you can now read the culmination of Leo's story of self-discovery!

It's bound to be a smooth ride, right?

Do not let these milquetoast white men content creators convince you that we are doomed. They are selling fear and profiting off of it.

His health is failing. The cult has lost its momentum. The Epstein victims are actively making their case and trials will be happening, worldwide. The GOP is fighting amongst themselves about everything. Dems are winning their elections at federal and state levels. The military is being sent to cities to then stand around and get mocked. Judges have ruled it's illegal to be sent to blue cities in the first place. Alligator Alcatraz got shut down. They're desperate to hire people for ICE because people keep quitting. Protests are happening every week, everywhere.

We are in a very scary and very chaotic time. Project 2025 is terrifying. People are being emboldened to be violent, and people are being traumatized and harmed. The country has been divided and damaged, but not beyond repair and rebuild. We will get through this, we can't just give up and comply in advance. Don't let the bastards get you down.

Branded, the first in a series of four-page horror comics.

This is my first attempt at rendering a whole comic in "pure" black and white linework, without shades of gray. It's a style I've always admired but never felt strong enough to do.

Enjoy! 👻

#comics, #art, #horror, #DarkArt

A black and white comic page with three panels.

Panel 1: A bedroom, seen from above, mostly shrouded in darkness. There is a big bed, and a poster above the bed featuring a demonic band called Beelzebabes. There is a bedside table with a lamp, spreading a circle of light around it. A young woman lies curled up on the bed, clutching a pillow. A rectangle of light falls from an off-panel doorway over the bed, and the shadow of a person appears in the light.

The title of the comic: "Branded", appears in the top left corner.
The shadowy figure says "You should go outside.""

Panel 2:
Closeup of the young woman's face. She looks haggard and frightened. The rectangle of the doorframe, with the shadowy figure within it, appears behind her in the darkness.

The young woman says: "I... I can't. That..."

Panel 3:
A slightly abstract rendition of a window with venetian blinds drawn. Insects buzz in the light filtering through the blinds, and something that resembles smoke rises across the panel.

The young woman says: "That thing is still out there."

A black and white comic page with six panels.

Panel 1: A white void, in which sits a rectangular stairway framed by a low brick wall, apparently leading down underground. A crooked sign post stands next to the stairs.

Narration boxes: "It followed me from the subway station. At first, I thought it was just a beggar, but..."

Panels 2-4: In a sequence of three panels, a pale, deformed humanoid figure emerges from the darkness, its arms abnormally long, its fingers long with claw-like nails. The figure seems to twist and bend in unnatural ways, and keeps poking at its own eyelids with its nails, as if its trying to force its own eyelids open.

Narration boxes: "With every step it took, it changed. I could hear its bones snap and slot into place. And somehow, I was trapped with it. Like a bird in an oil spill."

Panel 5: The young woman, now wearing an overcoat and hat, and a long scarf sustained on the wind, clasps her face in horror. Her face and hands have been blacked out with rough pencil strokes, but the whites of her eyes can still be seen, staring in terror. Her purse is flying through the air, spilling its contents as it goes: a set of keys, a book, a pencil, a smartphone.

Narration boxes: "And something passed from it to me. I can't get rid of it."

Panel 6: A closeup of the creature's eye, being pried open by two long, cracked fingernails. The pupil in the eye resembles a twisted reflection of the young woman.

Narration boxes: "You know how smoke sticks to your collar? Or when a sick baby puts its fingers in your mouth."

A black and white comic page with six panels.

Panel 1: The young woman is peeking out her window, parting the venetian blinds with her fingers. Her face is brightly lit, and her eyes look astonished with disbelief.

Narration boxes: "Ever since then, little by little... the world has fallen apart."

Panel 2: A bizarre view of the street outside the young woman's house. A gigantic dog is being walked by a tiny person, who appears to be much farther away than the dog, despite walking in front of it. The dog is intersected by lamp posts which appear to be at different distances from the viewer, and in each section the dog is much larger than the last. The curb itself appears to be a smartphone, and a broken clock is floating among some rubble in the void.

Narration boxes: "Pieces disappear, or appear elsewhere. Things change size without moving. Nothing is the same when you look again."

Panel 3: In a white void, a deformed figure, distinct from the one we saw on the previous page, is shambling around. It is dressed in a blouse and skirt, and its neck is long, snaking away from its body, head lolling.

Narration boxes: "There are others like it, shambling about. I can see them clearly now. Maybe they were always there."

Panels 4-6: Three panels of the young woman sitting on her bed, clutching her pillow, first seen as a white silhouette over pitch black, then straight from the front, then in closeup as she turns her head toward the figure in the doorway.

The young woman says: "There is no outside anymore. My room is the only place I feel safe."
The figure in the doorway says: "You should go outside."
Irritated, the young woman says: "Weren't you listening? I said–"
The figure in the doorway interrupts: "Outside."
Now suddenly anxious, the young woman says: "What..."
The figure in the doorway interrupts, this time with a scratchy, deformed word balloon: "You should go outside."

A black and white comic page with two panels.

Panel 1: The young woman is sitting up in her bed, clutching her sheet as it wraps around her lower body. She is looking over her shoulder, toward the doorway. Concentric circles with hatched patterns inside them frame her head.

The young woman says: "M... mom?"

A word balloon at the bottom of the panel extends into the next panel, with the letters spilling out of it as if entering the same physical space as the characters themselves, spelling out the words "Go outside".

Panel 2: In a big panel, seen from the young woman's point of view, a monstrous humanoid creature emerges from the darkness, reaching its long, clawed hands toward us. Its neck is crooked, head lolling, eyes apparently clawed open, with fresh scratch wounds running down its cheeks. The mouth is open, with worm-like appendages dangling from its lips. The young woman's hand reaches into frame, fingers spread, as if trying to ward off the monster in fear.

A small box in the bottom right corner informs us that this is the end of the story. Thank you for reading!

We all share a common enemy.

Abbacchio Joins the Kicking refers to a memorable scene from anime series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in which character Leone Abbacchio drinks from a glass of wine while observing his gangmates Naranchia Ghirga and Guido Mista beat up a suspected enemy, and then joins in. Online, the scene has been circulated as an object-labeling exploitable.

Mista is the NSFW artist, Naranchia is the SFW artist and the random civilian is the AI artist. Abbacchio is the client/art enjoyer and he eventually Mista and Naranchia in the kicking of the AI-artist.
