Seeing reports that they’re now in rogers park/evanston. I’m near howard/ridge, hearing sirens and helicopters
After raiding shopping plazas in Cicero and Bedford Park this morning, a caravan of Border Patrol agents swung north toward Edgewater.
Several Chicago police vehicles can be seen here intervening to protect their exit from DSLSD onto city streets and escort the caravan.

All the worrying that trans folks have had since he took office? This is why. This is the first step on a short road that ends with the criminalization of trans existence in the US. It isn't doomsaying. It isn't panic. It's right in front of us.

I took a college class about ways ppl resisted the nazis, and so much of it was sneaky clever stuff like this, or using the nazi’s own stereotypes about ppl to make things difficult for them
Gonna talk in entomology class today about how Jewish scientists forced to work in Nazi concentration camps secretly sent fake vaccines to the eastern front and managed to kill 4,000 Nazis with typhus.
Vaccine subterfuge: How vaccine-makers fooled the Nazis from inside a concentration camp lab
Confined first at Auschwitz then Buchenwald, a Jewish microbiologist conspired with a ragtag team of scientists and rebels to send dud typhus vaccines to the German soldiers on the eastern front.

I’ve come around on it. This character is discovering that he keeps coming back from the dead (maybe can’t die?) so using nigh-unkillable phragmites here is a fitting choice. However I still want to Burn It

Firmly believe that people actually love to have a useful little job, and we’d all do em for free if the working conditions were good and our needs were taken care of
My elementary school had so many little jobs that we all loved to do. I worked in the cafeteria (put tins onto the trays and sold milk cartons) and the ball room (lent out play equipment). Being the librarian’s assistant during lunch was one of the most sought-after positions!

Shivana is right as usual, also you’d be surprised what can end up influencing your comics! A really boring college geology class helped me do Witchlight world building ✌️
my hot take is some of y'all need to stop only reading comics. read prose, go to a museum, learn scrimshaw, wtfever. go be an interesting person first because i can TELL when people don't ingest anythiinnggg else but comics
Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?

I don’t speak on this very often, but I urge you to call. If this goes through, it won’t just be federal funding that stops for gender affirming care. It’s federal money now, but insurance companies follow what they’re allowed to do and if they’re allowed to drop us, they will.
Please call.

The stopgap measure being voted on today to try to avoid govt shutdown includes a provision that could strip ALL federal funding from any institution/facility providing access to any form of gender-affirming care, for anyone of any age. Call.
