10/11/25 - Q&A 5: Building Cape

Is it ableist to call Butch Hartman "loony"? Because I can't think of a word more apt to describe him after some of the bizarre things he's said (I'm open to suggestions, though).

New Demo Reel time! Apparently today is #PortfolioDay (allegedly, I don't know how it works so don't quote me on it), so I figured it would be a good chance to finally upload my new animation reel here.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

A 4-panel comic. I'm at the supermarket with my 3yo daughter, who's holding a lollipop and sitting in the shopping cart. As we pass by the cake aisle, she points to the fridge and says "OH!! I WANNA BUY A CAKE!!" So I tell her, "No no no. You already have a lollipop in your hand, that's enough sweets for today." She looks at me and replies "But I have TWO hands."

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

i think most white americans who have never been Policed don’t realize that you are always already a criminal.

the second anyone with institutional power believes you to be, needs you to be, or wants you to be a criminal you are and always have been.

Melissa Gira Grant @melissagiragrant.com · Apr 17

the last few days has been a reminder that people really want to believe that not only is there this real thing called a “criminal,” and that if they need to, anyone can just prove they aren’t one

Pat Inverted Vibe Curve Blanchfield @patblanchfield.bsky.social · Apr 16

do people not realize that the past four decades of US policing legislation PR and practice have made the allegation that someone is a “gang member” entirely subject to the whims of the state

It’s become crystal clear, Speaker Johnson doesn’t want Congress to come back in session because they don’t want the Epstein files released.

If you've never been to Gaza, you won't appreciate what the yellow line means. Basically Israel now holds most of Gaza's small but important agricultural land. Continued Israeli occupation, which I judge the likely outcome, makes Gaza even more unliveable and more dependent on outside goods.
