Reminder that, unless a creative freelancer has a spouse with a day job that offers health insurance, they likely have an ACA plan. And with the hits to creative industries the past few years, I'm guessing many qualify for subsidies.
Related reminder that comic creators are freelancers.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Tagging @krisstraub.com with one of my favorite Chainsawsuit strips. The titles are gone now, but I'm pretty sure the one now at chainsawsuit.krisstraub.com/20161205.shtml was called "Poetry in Promotion":

when talking about accessibility and ALT text i think it’s important to note that some people (like myself) use it to mute things that can cause health problems.
turns out everyone spamming obnoxiously high contrast images of no value makes me throw up

I'm losing my mind over how many reviewers are like "GDT's Frankenstein makes you wonder who the real monster is." THAT'S THE STORY! That's the story Shelley wrote!

twitter hiding replies from me is how my stalker was able to reply to me for months talking about raping me and cutting me into pieces without my knowledge. he was violating my protection order and i didn’t even know it.
it kept him out of jail.
it kept him out of jail.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT
Hiding replies without my consent is *dangerous to me*
I use the mute function extremely carefully for a reason
I need to know if people are being violent at me so I can take action to protect myself
I need to be able to choose for myself who hidden

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.
