Nab from library or get online PDFs if you can.

The shop is back! It will stay open over the weekend and maybe a bit longer before I close it up for the year.

So get your goods while it lasts ✨
Sorry for the repost but:

US shipping is live! (It's not cheap but there should be 0 hassle for yall as all tariffs have been covered!)

Again, all my MCM London leftovers are now up - some of them are very low on stock so act fast. Deltarune keychains are back soon!

If you still don’t want to leave Spotify (despite the fact you can transfer your playlists to other streaming options that don’t profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE), we ask you not to share your Spotify Wrapped this year.
Spotify is running ads to recruit for the regime’s secret police. Stop paying for or using Spotify until the ICE ads stop: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

Oh, damn. :(

An actor friend of mine in college was the first to introduce me to Stoppard's work, and I cannot watch Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead without thinking of him.

Oh hells yes, I can get behind this.

Apologies that this scene is a spoiler for #MyHeroAcademia, but Chris Wehkamp as Eraser and Dave Trosko as Present Mic were both utterly fantastic in this scene.

I want to see Trump sit down and personally sign all 1,600 pardons he used auto pen on for the Jan 6th insurrectionists.

Either that or want to see police go and pick all of them up right now and throw them all back in prison.

If Biden’s auto pen pardons are no good then neither are Trump’s.

Here's the design if you want to make it yourself! I made it on a 16x16 grid using free Pixel Brush app, mostly drawing pixel by pixel but used the circle tool to help ensure symmetry. Inspired by several other artists with similar design ideas!

Okay, having learned about @profanity.accountant, I'll have to give this a try. (Of course, whether it recognizes some of my more creative obscenities is anyone's guess.)

IMPORTANT reminder for when you print zines:

Set your printer to "Scale: 100%"

Many printers automatically resize to 94% or something, which will shrink the image and give you weird borders when you fold the zine.

Scale: 100%.
