Venezuela has the world’s largest oil reserves — and that’s no coincidence.

This is naked U.S. imperialism: an illegal assault on Caracas aimed at overthrowing a sovereign government and plundering its resources.

Starmer’s Labour government must condemn this unequivocally.

My most controversial one yet. But I thought this through over years. It's not an impulsive post. I hope it can lead to something constructive.

Usually wouldn't post something personal like this for the sake of it but the talk on the eurocentrism of asd awareness is appallingly lacking
I have autism🥲I'm trying to get diagnosed but it gets to a level where a few days without a routine consistently gives me a feeling of overwhelm. One week? 100% i'll have suicidal ideation, possibly difficulty breathing in a panic attack,

A cathartic zine as inspired by Wallis Eates' work and workshops on healing through comics.
Qatar has been treating me well. With this new chapter, I've had the space away from the pressure to see my routine, my sticking to things I like rather than adventuring with a different boba tea flavour,

It is shocking that people have been pushed to take such serious action just to be heard.

These events did not happen by accident. They are the result of the government misusing anti-terror laws.

When I made my first comic as an adult three odd years ago (i.e. excluding my teen comics), it was about my story of making sense of my hardships. And, indeed, everyone's story deserves to be told.
