So Lizard Boy 2 made Portland Monthly's top books of 2025 by Portland area authors. Cool, right?! We all want to be recognized and make these lists, right? We all want to be loved and recognized!

Book bans take a financial and emotional toll on authors and illustrators, but creators are often left out of the conversation when it comes to who to protect in freedom to read bills. We need more legislation that includes protection for creators whose lives and livelihood are disrupted.

It is an absolutely delightful irony that the richest man in the world is universally acknowledged to be a huge fucking loser who not a single living person envies in any way at all
Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

U.S. immigration law started with laws explicitly & entirely designed to discriminate against & exclude arrivals from specific countries. Which is to say, federal immigration policy has from its outset been about defining certain communities as "illegal."

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

The vicious cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.
