It's always weird and a little gross when a comic of mine goes viral and I see all the accounts posting it with my attribution stripped out, so this is a big thank you to everyone who shared my work with my name still attached to it. Thank you :)

The pronoun labeler, which was by far the most useful labeler on the site, was deleted by its creator. But thanks to @ripperoni.com there’s a new one available. I highly recommend it. It’s a great way to share your pronouns or see someone else’s pronouns at a glance.

We should be wholly past the digital dualism argument by now-- our Internet presences are absolutely very real aspects of our entire selves.

It's not just that these bots steal our work product, it's that they steal something deeper.

The optimism in #solarpunk needs to be salted with punk anger
I'm not a climate doomer, because that's what the powerful want. They want people to give up and say "it's too late."

Even if it is too late, I'd still rather the world decarbonize if only to fuck up the fossil fuel companies.

If you refuse to believe in a better future, at least believe in spite.
The only biosphere in the known universe capable of supporting human life is being turned into a hell planet because most of Earth's governments refuse to stop trying to satisfy the insatiable greed of a plutocracy composed of people who already have more money than they could spend in 20 lifetimes.

The far right was in overdrive yesterday to make the mass shooting at Tumbler Ridge about trans people.

It helped obscure the fact that it's actually Canada's first mass shooting targeting children. Canada's Dunblane.

Sometimes I get really angry when I think about the fact that I wrote for a blog that warned people about what is happening now, a decade ago. And how ultimately we lost. But most of the time I’m just proud of everything we did and everyone I met and how brave and truthful that group of people was.

No worries! If you add #sciart, #sciencecomic, or 🐡 to your post or alt text, it will get picked up by the SciArt Feed.

Also if you forget, replying to your post with a hashtag or the puffer fish emoji will send it to the Feed.
