actively encouraging reflecting on your feelings with someone you trust when a piece of art makes you uncomfortable is pretty cool

underneath all the doom and hideous stuff happening at the top of our country is a more inspiring story: regular Americans are not buying all this crap. and they're still willing to call the government out on it.

Meghan Blanco, an attorney who represented Mojica, said it was significant that jurors did not believe the statements of such a senior official.

“These jurors had the opportunity to listen firsthand to the CBP officer overseeing enforcement nationally and could not have found his testimony to be credible,” said Blanco, a former federal prosecutor. “It is a bad sign for the federal government. They are doing everything they can to try to legitimize their prosecutions, and thank God the jury and the public are seeing right through it.”

not paying to read this, so let me guess: in this article, ostensibly about what people can learn from Kirk, the man himself is not quoted a single time

The New York Times @nytimes.com · 23d

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

Charlie Kirk “connected with many young Americans, particularly young men, who feel invisible in our politics,” John Della Volpe writes. “Democrats right now have a rare opportunity to reach these voters — if they can learn what Mr. Kirk understood about connection.”

So, the gig at DC is over. I imagine the original horror comic I had cooking with their creator-owned imprint is gone as well. This was a direct result of comics fans freaking out about decade-old online beef so wildly that Israeli Zionist propaganda outlets picked it up, which in turn led to

While I got my knuckles rapped by corporate America for being rude and tasteless about a guy who dreamed of the stoning of me and everyone I love, Fox's Brian Kilmeade advocated explicitly for the state murder of all homeless people -- on live TV, no less -- to virtually no response.

The outpouring of support from readers & colleagues is overwhelming. I can't imagine them coming together like this for a "problematic" trans woman even five years ago. If you want to help me make up the lost income from comics work, you can subscribe to my Patreon.

Hey all! I'd like to thank the world's media institutions, and of course the Bluesky mods, for being totally normal and proportional about a barely famous trans woman cracking wise about a Nazi's death.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

The Brave New World end credits scene is actually teasing the Illuminati. No, not the one from Doctor Strange 2 that Raimi killed as a joke, a different one that will definitely be cool this time. Why are you not excited right now
