People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .
Text: “A friend said those of us who live in Minneapolis should write about what's going on here for folks who live elsewhere. You need to know that whether you're a Republican, Independent or Democrat, the Constitution is being violated by our federal government. This is not about catching criminals, or even deporting people. It is about punishing an entire state, including citizens, for not supporting the president. Everyone in my part of Minneapolis is affected. On our streets, ICE is stopping people of color and demanding their papers. In America. US citizens do not have to prove citizenship to ICE. Yet people are being intimidated, some cases beaten up and detained, for requiring ICE to follow the law. ICE needs a judicial warrant to enter homes. Yet there are documented cases of them ignoring the law - violating a bedrock constitutional principle. Americans of color are staying home, afraid to go to work, school, to grocery shop, or fill their cars with gas. This isn't just "illegals" or immigrants with valid work permits, it is citizens who have had their cars rammed by ICE for merely looking Hispanic. Businesses are closing. Schools are 50 percent full. When they are open, fascists are calling in bomb threats because the president decided to make us a meme. After a daycare teacher with a valid work permit (through 2030) was snatched from her workplace, parents (and grandparents) have had to organize to watch their SCHOOLS, to make sure conditional rights are observed. This is being repeated throughout Minnesota. Imagine trying to do your job or live you life while also taking volunteer shifts to make sure the federal government doesn't act extrajudicially. Because of ICE's documented abuses, neighbors have organized to monitor federal actions. This observation is legal, as long as it doesn't interfere with a valid action. Yet since ICE killed Renee Good, they are increasingly stopping this observation, breaking car windows and …”

Hey. You know those cute little crow time comics everyone loves so much? That's Isa. That's who everyone is talking about. I think that needed to be made clear since I noticed some confusion and a lot are actually rather unaware of this fact because she's great at separating herself from this.

complaining about numbers is a fast way to tell the people who do support you that they aren't enough. i know we dream about "getting those big numbers" but sometimes we need to remember that 10 people standing in a room IS A LOT. Support the people who support you. We all rise together.

I had a shitty day from the moment I woke up, compounded with the ever-darkening news. But things changed when I asked for help. Kind people answered. And even if that help can't fix my problems, it's a start. It's helping me up off the ground so I can dust myself off and try again.

Porn and erotica are important and societally valuable forms of speech, and the defense of them, in the face of state and church attempts at repression, is a necessary political act.

So glad her husband got that job so at least one cartoonist in New York can have health insurance.

Another shot of Rama Duwaji and her date.
Zohran Mamdani and Rama Duwaji sitting at the inauguration. He's smiling. She's gazing towards the camera with her head tilted and a look of quiet regard? judgement? amusement? on her face.

All the birds together. I'd like to update this into a true print...soon!
Illustration of various birds wearing winter clothes, A House Martin, Dark Eyed-Junco, and Fairy Wren wearing sweaters, standing on pine tree branches are clustered at the top. Grouped in the middle are a morning dove, yellow rumped warbler, and cedar waxwing wearing orange and red ribbons. A bottom are a Pyrrhuloxia, Northern Flicker, and Bull Finch wearing scarves.

Sometimes it's hard to describe what I do beyond just comp and character animation. For Mistletoe, I took the incredible @artsparrow.bsky.social 's artwork and added lighting, sometimes color change, prop swap, and occasionally a little layout change to get the final image.
