Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

Good news! In the time the Sickos Selection Bundle has been available I’ve gone to another life drawing session, so the sketchbook for the 40k stretch goal is three pages longer now than it was originally going to be! itch.io/b/3393/sicko...

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

This book altered me permanently.
I hope hope hope it finds a good home because I only read it through my library and I NEED a physical copy I can chew on.
Wish me luck—The Scottish Boy (+ a new, similar book!!!) is out on sub to publishers, hoping to find a new home post-Unbound.

The book sold out 3 print runs & did big audio numbers on word of mouth, so I hope a new publisher can build on that. If you liked the book, pls RT 💕 synopsis in alt txt

Next week the House E&C Committee is looking to run something of a shock and awe campaign, debating at least 19 bills that they say are related to "protecting kids online." Most of which are actually about censorship and control. Don't buy the framing. It's always the same damn thing.

The official Gundam yt channel rotates what they have available every few months, but at this moment (i think for the anniversary?) the entire series (minus sequel movie) is up to watch for free with subs in five languages: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Make Uber aware and if they don’t do anything, add them to the boycott list
ICE is using Uber stickers in order to disguise themselves and kidnap people. Spread this for awareness!

Reading letters from the Princess Liselotte of Palantine, the German sister-in-law of Louis XIV, and it's wild because she had this super informal writing style that almost sounds like modern texts

Like at one point she goes "wish to god my son didn't love holding chunks of bread like a peasant"

www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... Also, I'm trying to get holiday gifts for my 9 year old niece, because her mom and I have both been disabled and are struggling this year. She especially wants the bed, as she's still using the one we got her when she was 3 and had just fled DV.
Check out my list on Amazon

·You know what sucks? ICE.
·You know what's great? Putting your money on comics from diverse creators and learning about different cultures thru their fables and fairytales.

·Am I bit aggro on this? I might not be having the best day!
·Should it matter? nope! Buy comics!
What better gift could there be for the littles in your life than the FULL RUN of the Cautionary Fables & Fairytales series!

This is a fab little book for people who work on comics—it has helped me when I proofread for IDW—but, as I said when it first came out, I also think readers of comics would find it just as interesting! I certainly found it interesting as I copyedited it, and that was before I got the IDW gig!
The Proofreader’s Guide to Comic Book Style came out a year ago today!

To celebrate my first book birthday, I’m running a 20% sale on all orders on comicbookstyle.com now through Black Friday with the code BIRTHDAY

This is inevitability propaganda by an AI company made to make you feel like you must use AI & it's bullshit. This methodology is bullshit, for many reasons, not least of which is, it is reliant on common crawl, now blocked by many of the biggest content producers online graphite.io/five-percent...

Time once again to rep my favorite place for giving: anelder.org - they supply food, firewood and supplies for traditional crafting to Navajo Elders. If you have the cash, please give these folks a hand.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.

Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.
