An illustration of an anthropomorphic raccoon, lop eared bunny and mouse hanging out in a bedroom. The bedroom contains a computer on a desk, a wall mounted shelf with books and figurines, various posters on the wall and a night stand with a record player and a lamp, which is the main lightsource in the room. The raccoon and the bunny are holding and looking over cards for a trading card game as the mouse is laying in the bed right behind them, dozing off.

An illustration of a vase half-full with water and holding a bundle of white flowers. The vase is standing on top of a blue book in front of an orange square.

An illustration of a depressed looking corgi laying in a grassy field with a bottle of booze, a plate of food and a box of cigarettes. There is a cigarette in one of the corgi's paws.

When a trans woman dies of natural causes, at an age greater than 75, having lived more than half her life as herself, that is cause for celebration, not mourning.

Thank you, Miss Major.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

I hate structure but I also can't live without structure, how do you solve this??

Comic illustration titled “ADHD & Structure,” divided into two panels.
Left panel, captioned “I struggle…”: A person with small yellow antennae on their head stands looking sad and uncomfortable between two rigid metal barriers. Text below: “When structure feels more like rigid constraints.”
Right panel, captioned “I thrive…”: The same person now looks joyful and free, smiling with arms outstretched while playfully moving between two flexible stanchions connected by a red velvet rope. Text below: “When structure is a flexible frame I can freely move within.”

Comic illustration split into two panels with the headings “I struggle…” on the left and “I thrive…” on the right.

Left panel:
At the top, a person with small yellow antennae on their head looks tired and downcast while another character points at them angrily. Text: “Being expected to function regularly and disappointing people when I can’t do that.”
Below, the same person holds a plate of food, looking uncomfortable, while another character points at them and says: “Why do you never eat up?” Text: “Being observed and scolded or judged for how I do things.”

Right panel:
At the top, the same antennaed person smiles and looks content while holding a can labeled “Beans” and a box labeled “Veggies.” Text: “When I can adapt my pace to both good and bad days.”
Below, the person sits at a table with leftovers on a plate and happily says: “Great, I have leftovers!” Text: “When I receive recognition and curiosity for how I do things.”

Split comic image with the heading on the left “I struggle…” and on the right “I thrive…”.
Left: A person with little antennae on their head looks stressed, crumples papers, and appears frustrated. Text: “When I set my own standards to hyperfocus levels, only to burn out and fail.” Below: The same person sits exhausted in a chair with a phone, while another character says: “No phone when you come home!” The tired person replies: “But I’m so tired…” Text: “When it becomes a rigid rule that I’m not allowed to question or improve.”
Right: The same person looks calm and content. At the top, they hold a sheet of paper and think: “Today, one page is enough.” Text: “When I allow myself to do things just right, rest and let go of perfectionism.” Below: They rest comfortably in a chair with their phone and think: “I’ll rest for 30 minutes!”

Comic illustration divided into two panels with the headings “I struggle…” on the left and “I thrive…” on the right.

Left panel:
A person with yellow antennae on their head looks small and ashamed, standing behind a taller figure who gestures dismissively and says: “I always have to take care of her!” The person with antennae looks downcast and uncomfortable. Text below: “When support turns into resentment towards my ‘inability’ and further deteriorates my self-confidence.”

Right panel:
The same person with antennae looks joyful and energetic, fists raised in enthusiasm, surrounded by little glowing stars. A supportive figure smiles and says: “Let’s both clean up for 30 minutes!” The person with antennae replies excitedly: “I’ll clean the bestest!!!” Text below: “When I am encouraged to help myself without being expected to suddenly no longer have ADHD.”

An illustration of two alternative designs for Mega Raichu X and Mega Raichu Y. Mega Raichu X bears horns and two cape-like tails and Mega Raichu Y floats in a way similar to Alolan Raichu.

An illustration of a blue and white anthro fox falling backwards away from the viewer. the fox is shaded in a toned comic book style.

An illustration of Viktor from Arcane wearing a blanket and looking sternly at the viewer while holding a corrupted gear to his eye. His hair, as well as the center of the gear, is glowing blue. Viktor's body, except for his face and hair, is covered in a Mother-of-Pearl like substance and gold trimming. The background is abstract, full of iridecent swirls and shapes.

An illustration of my fursona, Spee the Peryton, dressed in adventurer's clothes and walking through a dark cave. They are holding a bright, copper lantern and running their hoof along the walls of the cave, where a giant Megaceros fossil is imbedded.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

This video is everywhere because it's a hilarious visual refutation of Portland being on fire. You can't get a mass movement going without convincing the masses

so yes, this does do something actually

Portland is leading the way. This is how you (non violently) beat Fascism. Humor and ridicule are key.

Independent comics as an industry would barely exist these days without the tireless efforts of Kickstarter's staff behind the scenes. As they advise, keep supporting all the amazing projects you already are, but have their back in the process.

Kickstarter United @kickstarterunited.org · 12d

‼️🚨KICKSTARTER WORKERS ARE ON STRIKE🚨‼️

As of 8am this morning, the workers of Kickstarter United/OPEIU Local 153 are on strike.

WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BOYCOTT! Creators and allies, please continue using and supporting the platform.

Kickstarter United is on strike!
We are not asking for a boycott! Creators & Allies: Please continue to support & use the platform
swipe for ways to show your solidarity

Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet.
