The regime is going to court to overrule a judge’s order to release 5 year old Liam Ramos from custody.

They’re spending tax dollars fighting to lock up a child

Arguing to send him back to a camp where children scream “let us out”.

A camp with a measles outbreak.

100% Every part of the writing process IS writing, including being stuck, being frustrated, being unable to start.
I think every comics creator should internalize the fact that using a.i. for any part of your job not only comprises your work but it also fucks over every other person working with you. It's not worth it. Ever.

I've always wanted to make a 2-color comic wherein a third color (and range of tints) are created by overlapping the colors - vintage children's books would often use this technique. you would also see this in the flexographic printing of packaging. I'm pretty happy with this experiment.

Two disabled autistic boys were murdered by their parents in Australia

I’m begging everyone to pay close attention to how the media frames this.

There’s a tendency to let the “better off dead” narrative creep in whenever disabled lives are lost.

Make sure you call your reps about this crap.
I've been posting about this for a long time. Time to raise awareness again: the SAVE Act would disenfranchise tens of millions of American women (including myself) whose legal names do not match the names on their birth certificates.

Lawyers say a Real ID DL wouldn't suffice to be able to vote.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

Or how about this headline — “American citizen arrested without cause after exercising his Constitutional rights.” Very important that government propaganda not become the default framing.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Much love to the rural Minnesotans helping THEIR neighbors, too.

Bears repeating that while Minneapolis gets the most attention, it's exactly the same situation in St. Paul and very similar in many suburbs and smaller towns around the state (and, obviously, outside MN)
Rural Minnesota isn’t staying silent.

As ICE expands raids into small towns, neighbors, faith leaders, and students are stepping up to protect Somali communities and each other.

Excellent tips in Jim’s 🧵 for animation portfolios!
Went to an animation social last night and enjoyed catching up with friends and former students.

The industry has been in a slump and lots of people are on the hunt for work, but there was still a lot of smiles and laughs going around, which was nice to see.

please remember that no matter how many “ICE is losing in MN” articles you read today, there is still a very real, urgent, ongoing crisis in Minnesota.

people need food and they need rent money. that has not changed.
