Thank you 🙏🏻

New Jump series today: ALIEN HEADBUTT, your typical pro wrestler v. aliens battle manga. Debut serialization by Akira Inui. Bananas fun in this pilot chapter. Hope it sticks around but me liking a new Jump strip has a 50% rate of being cancelled early. On the Viz and Shueisha apps.

I have a suspicion that a lot of things are potentially going to happen quite fast at this point. If more competent MPs don't see that they have an opportunity to get Starmer to resign and reset Labour with three years left in power before a GE then they really shouldn't be in politics.

ICE's occupation in Minneapolis has affected everyone that lives there, and today on SKTCHD, I wrote about what it's like for comic creators in the area, and how they're using their art to tell the story of the city from their perspectives.

Stop judging yourself by the standards of evil men. Stop determining your goals according to theirs. There is joy and importance and meaning in the world, and their world is not the world.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

The anti-ICE/CBP rally in Chicago's Daley Plaza has grown significantly in just the last half hour.
The crowd is spilling out into street; I'd say there's over a thousand people here at this point.

RIP Catherine O'Hara, far too young at 71. Wonderful comedic actress. Most will associate her with HOME ALONE, BEETLEJUICE or SCHITT'S CREEK, but I always remember her on SCTV.
