The cover to The Game. Alexander, a thin white man with tousled black hair and round glasses, holds up a leather gimp hood. He’s sweating and blushing and grins nervously. Janine’s curvaceous shadow is cast over him. He stands against a brick wall washed in a pink and purple gradient. The title is in big yellow block letters. The text also says “For Adults Only” and “Ophilia Bedelia.”

I already see discourse about it. Not even about him per se but about how it’s a cash grab / “he didn’t even like his job” type shit that makes me go “kids can we lighten up?”

We honor the legacy of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, a fierce protector of our collective freedom. Our hearts are with her loved ones and all who carry her vision forward.

"We will honor Miss Major forever." - @imarajones.bsky.social

An illustration of Miss Major surrounded by candles with blue background and a famous quote of hers written in gold. The quote reads“I don’t need their permission to exist; I exist in spite of them. I want you to train and teach and love on and create families within my community and gender non-conforming people, so that we can understand that we have a culture, we have a history, we have a reason to be here. We have a purpose. We’re entitled to be loved, and seek happiness, and share that with the people that we care about.” -Miss Major Griffin-Gracy

If you haven’t seen it, this footage from @apnews.com is incredibly important.

The intent here seems unmistakable, in two ways: (1) just read the genocide convention, here it **absolutely** is, and (2) this level of infrastructural destruction is, no question, meant as pre-development demolition.

40 applications since July and I can’t get a single interview and I really have to wonder what’s at work here. I know I’ve planted a lot of seeds but not getting anything to grow takes it’s toll after awhile

Scríobh mé faoi Mhanchán Magan. Is féidir leat peann glas a tabhairt dom. Fadbh ar bith.

Léigh agus Cláraigh anois at the link in bio !

A canva graphic over a photo of a botharín in Kildare that says ““Manchán saw beyond borders through language. It wasn’t that he saw the Irish language as exceptional in its ways of expression, he saw that there was commonality in this expression with languages globally that is being eroded via neocolonialism.”

A canva graphic over a photo of a botharín in Kildare that says as Gaeilge ““Chonaic Manchán thar teorainneacha trí theanga. Ní fhaca sé Gaeilge mar eisceachtúil ach ó thar go bhfuil cosúlachtaí aici leis aon teanga eile. Tá na ceangail seo creimthe ag nuachoilíneachas.”

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

Inniu, I pay tribute to Manchán Magan who taught us that our connections to each other are what make us divine and human

The Death of Manchán Magan Reminds Us to Relate to Each Other

We must commit to Manchán Magan's revolutionary and anti-colonial act of remembering.

It’s been too long since I drew dominant Alexander so here’s a comic that’s a flip in theme from the upcoming graphic novella. 😈

A cropped comic panel of a shit from behind Janine, naked, straddling Alexander. He’s grinning mischievously and gripping her ass. She says, “Hey, I haven’t given you permission to touch that yet.”

Re: today's march in Chicago at 1 pm at 50 W Washington: I have seen some people posting complaints about this march that don't make sense, and I want to respond. First, some people complain that folks should take action in affected communities. They are. It's called rapid response. (Thread.)
