Thank you. Yeah. It’s always been the crux with things like Patreon etc that you need to gamble by making content for free and hope you get lucky and people take an interest, and many of us can’t afford to.
I know people just wanna be helpful but it ain’t easy 🥲
People who say "Make the comic first" don't realize how long and hard it is to make a good looking, legible, interesting comic.
Like sure make it on spec, but that's 3-6 months (generously) without income, and that's just an unreasonable ask.

when you read this it is very clear that Wiles thinks she is flexing the administration's muscle. relatedly, it is also very clear that the White House is completely delusional about its standing with the public. they are high on their own supply.

We are parents of a trans kid and our family takes this very, very personally. If you intentionally make life harder for our beloved daughter, it’s EXTREMELY hard to think of you as an ally, to say the least. @amyklobuchar.com - you still send us requests for money, while hurting our kid. Disgusted.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

We are not fighting fascism because we don’t want to.

Almost every section of the political spectrum believes that “identity” marginalized people need to be “managed” not protected .

They enjoy the spectre of Trump/ Trump adjacency as a regulation tool

the modern world is defined by people in power latching on to policies and ideas that sound reasonable at first pass if you don't apply a modicum of critical thinking to them
Fancy a digital chastity belt?

The government wants Apple and Google to stop you from taking or sending pics of your bits.

Intrusive scanning tech on your phone would block nudes unless you verify your age with biometrics or official ID.

It's creepy mission creep.

All of this - Roberts’ destruction of the Voting Right Act, the regime’s anti-diversity campaign - stems from white people’s fear that one day they’ll be treated like they’ve treated people of color. It animates everything they do.

Hey y'all. Some new updates. Thanks to you all I was able to get what ended up being an initial consultation for my root canal which is now gonna happen in January. So I'm raising money for that and a crown to go on top of it. It's looking like it'll be about $1500. Any help would be so appreciated🖤

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."
