porn is not evil.
sex is not evil.
pleasure is not evil.
kink is not evil.

none of them are things to feel shame or embarrassment about.

none of them deserve the heavy-handed censorship that they're facing.

resist oppression (even if you don't partake in what is being oppressed)

Don't listen to anyone who tells you that Rumiko Takahashi comics aren't feminist enough, didn't challenge enough, didn't change things. Takahashi changed manga completely, but the effects she's had on everyone else's comics is sometimes subtler but no less intense. She blew up general fashion, too.

Happy birthday to Rumiko Takahashi. Prob my favorite mangaka.

I do understand the mindset behind being scared of becoming disabled; Nobody wants their life to get more difficult, and disability tends to make your life harder in the world we live in. Take it from me, though; It really isn’t the end of the world. Your life will still be worth living

I want to remind people that when there is a call to action to "contact your reps", it needs to be more than once

Going forward, contacting your reps needs to become part of your routine, at the very least during the work week.

Sustained pressure over time is what matters!

I hope this little dude never outgrows the part of his personality that says “if you see an open human hand, that’s where your tiny face should go”. He does it literally all the time. If I present my hand to him and he’s not super hyper (even if he is sometimes), he just puts his head there.

It's October, which means it's time to draw my Werewolf Witch again! 🎃🐺🪄

Since last year, I've gone werewolf myself though and she seems quite enamored with that... 😳💦

Two anthro wolf women. The taller wolf, dressed in a skimpy witch outfit is pinning the smaller wolf against a wall. They are flirting and the smaller wolf is flustered. There is text that reads "I see that wolf stuck" "Cute" "Hey" "Play nice you two!"

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.
