As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Way too much bulk for a game I rarely play. It’s time to trade in some Magic the Gathering cards for something else to fill the shelves. #magicthegathering

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

if you're one person making a comic by yourself, don't treat yourself like you should function on the same level as comics that have multiple people working on them. your backgrounds can be squiggles and colors.
allow yourself room to be abstract with details and give yourself some grace

A great thread pointing out huge gaps in my musical theater experiences. I really need more Sondheim in my world.
there are a couple, if you'll forgive the indulgence.
fiddler on the roof - the platonic ideal of what a musical should be
little shop of horrors - an absolute sparkling diamond of a show
guys and dolls - the greatest musical comedy of all time
sweeney todd - another show about eating people

As a bit of a scholar of glam metal myself I wrote about how Peacemaker season 1 brilliantly used the maligned genre in its soundtrack and I made a playlist of songs that people who enjoy James Gunn’s picks should like as well.

RFK Jr: We had lots of guns when we were kids. Kids brought guns to school and were encouraged to do so. And nobody was walking into schools and shooting people. There are many things that could explain this. One is the dependence on psychiatric drugs.
