I have a collage illustration in the latest issue of Commonweal: a rogue's gallery of brainworm-havers for
@mattpolprof.bsky.social's excellent review of
@lkatfield.bsky.social's excellent book on what these guys are up to (hint: it's not good). Read: www.commonwealmagazine.org/big-ideas-no...

Image popped into my head. I would like ICE to leave my neighbors alone. Call Spirit of Liberation (SOL) if you see these guys in Hudson County. Thanks.

Bike JC stands in solidarity with our immigrant neighbors and those seeking refuge in Jersey City. We watched ICE’s activity in our city this week with horror when agents targeted hard-working people who use the 9th Street elevator to bring bikes between Hoboken and Jersey City Heights.

Would love an Ephros ally on the county level. Maybe we'd actually get some bus lanes around here.

Using the artwork of Japanese City pop hero Hiroshi Nagai for this drivel is a special kind of self own
This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

NJ announced a change to the Turnpike expansion project: it WON'T widen the Turnpike extension in Bayonne & JC. That's a win, but not time to take a victory lap yet. They'll still add car lanes on the bridge approaching it, so, more cars, pollution, & traffic. Spend that $10.5 bil on NJT instead!

It brings me no pleasure to admit but the UK eats our lunch w/r/t book cover design. Many such cases.
Which cover do you prefer? Now that I have author copies of both US and UK editions of TIGERS BETWEEN EMPIRES, I am giving away 1 of each, signed, to 2 random people who like/reskeet this. US addresses only. Will announce winners on Friday, Oct 24, 2025, before official release (Nov 4). 🐅🌍 #booksky

Posts, but make it under the most gorgeous hand-drawn masthead you've ever seen
I'm in the William Morris museum in Walthamstow and it's funny how this issue of his socialist magazine Commonweal is just... posts. Morris would have been a poster

Shirt I illustrated for @hudcostreets.org is out in the wild, and I love how it turned out. So many of us in Hudson County rely on NJ Transit, PATH trains, and our bikes to get around. We're one of the most densely populated places in the U.S., and our transportation infrastructure ain't cutting it.

Brennan and Bhalla are basically more effective as nominees than my seated assembly people have been during their full tenures
