Just heard disappointing news that @warren.senate.gov will co-sponsor the Kids Online Safety Act again despite overwhelming opposition from LGBTQ, human rights, abortion rights, and racial justice groups.

This is a horrific betrayal of her constituents, particularly trans youth and their families.
Why Are Some Democrats Backing MAGA's Anti-LGBTQ+ Censorship?
From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and t...

I'm very proud of being Palestinian but I am exhausted of being an inconvenience/a reminder of "politics"/a chess piece to discuss global strategy. I just want to be what I am and who I am and live my life. That's all I've ever wanted.

Some copic illustrations that I forgot I did after @mayapetersen.bsky.social came to Philly to visit! It was so fun to see them and hope they visit again soon or we go see them one day. Set up a small little sketchbook in case friends that visit would like to draw in an on-going little collab book!

our bluesky safety manager replied with this to a woman venting after ICE kidnapped her husband, and then banned her.

How do we trust this person to have the empathy needed to be in charge of safety on this website? what the fuck?

if we spam the feedback, it might get somewhere

Thankful my friend and mentor is okay. Being profiled is never safe even in "good" times, and times definitely aren't good.

If you got folks you care about who are at risk in this social climate, check in on them and look out for them. If anything happens, they'll need you to help how you can.

Alright, folks familiar with kickstarter or zoop for comic projects, first pass of my pitch doc is done.

If you'd be open to giving feedback or know someone I could reach out to who is open to talking, let me know.

Tell your friends, family, and neighbors that we’ve got one last round of elections on Tuesday (I know, I know). It’s the final Election Day of the year, and these special elections and runoffs tend to be *very* low turnout, which means your vote matters even more.

I want to complete colored references for the other outfit variants of Quill! I've been allowing Quill's character model to shift slightly depending on what I want to emphasize about her outfit such as here where she has prominently more defined legs rather than rubber-hose legs. 🎉

Comics are hard to make, like holy shit.

Here's the lineart of a one page comic I'm making for practice. I've been wanting make something with Valhalla Surge doing the Viking jumping off the cliff meme, since It seemed like a perfect fit.

I'll color this later after some other work is done.

I know there's a lot going on, but scientists just confirmed that sugar has been found on Bennu, the asteroid NASA collected a sample from in 2020

continuing to make calls. I called my reps and alongside demanding they oppose all of these bills (and explaining in detail why), I also advocated for putting these bills through MORE committee meetings in order to continue debating them, rather than fast track such dangerous legislation
#SaveSpeech

The House Committee Meeting was heavily in favor of these various censorship/surveillance bills

We need now, more than ever, to counter the rhetoric that these bills are "popular" and demand our reps oppose them!

Hey, You. Person reading this.

Stop scrolling a sec.

You matter. You're enough. You're worthy. You are not your Trauma, your Shame, your Job Title, or Your bank balance.
You're a person that matters and that's ok.

I dunno who else needs to hear this today, but I sure did, so I'm saying out loud.

Open AI doesn't want to be transparent about what's in their datasets - this bill would force them. If you're pro AI regulation (esp if you're in Bay Area), please show up and offer your support for this bill! If you can't make it, help spread the word!
