Belated intro post given the recent influx:
Hi!👋 I’m Amanda. I’m a long time artist (mostly drawing and installation) more recently very into comics (most of which haven’t seen the light of day - yet 😊)
Here’s a recent short comic!

Candle-lit study. A log burns in the fireplace on tv. Ensconced in a plush leather recliner the color of tobacco, Jim Harbaugh, eyes closed, head resting against palm, brandy-filled snifter balanced on a much-too small cupholder, whispers to himself, “At seven p.m., a main hatchway caved in…”

If someone were to announce a credible primary challenge to Schumer this morning, I bet they could raise $10 million before COB today, probably more. Just sayin’
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

The women have 4 miles and are neck and neck, and ESPN is focused on the guy in 15th who isn’t even in the (massive) lead pack. I don’t care if it’s Kipchoge. Get it together, ESPN!

I love when you see your kids do a dance and ask “what is that?” and they say “that’s the griddy” and you say “what is that” and they look at you like you’re the dumbest person they’ve ever seen

FWIW I think Flaming Hydra and Defector are two of the best places to go for good writing on the current, much degraded version of the internet that once brought us things like The Awl. They are not news sites, they are sites for stories, which I think are more important than News.
TODAY: @samthielman.com on Graham Platner, and on talking to other people bedecked with idiotic symbolism. “ In my defense I can only say that it seemed to me that talking to these men at all was in some way an act of cowardice.” flaminghydra.com/boys-lives/

Yes, and I miss him dearly as a Guardian. But delighted to see him in position to maybe hoist a championship trophy this year.
