Hey it’s gift-giving season, and one thing everyone needs every years is a new calendar. Buying these directly supports my art, as, frankly, if they stop commissioning these, a major chunk of income flies out the window.

If you’ve ever owned a Transformers toy or consumed any bit of Transformers media, you probably owe something to #BehindTheBots all-star KŌJIN ŌNO: senior Takara designer, Diaclone veteran, and the creator of the very first transforming robot toy that started it all!

Don’t drink Starbucks, if for no other reason that until proven otherwise, it’s best to assume its billionaire owner is probably also a pedophile.
BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.
Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.
Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

So, like, are Republicans and ICE agents excommunicated? Can they be refused communion? These fuckers need consequences.
BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

It would be nice if “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” went back to meaning something so obviously impossible only an idiot would use the phrase to mean “rise through your own power and resources.”
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

UPDATE: Senate votes to advance a tentative deal to end the government shutdown, clearing a key hurdle.
Senators reach tentative deal to end the government shutdown
The deal, negotiated by a group of Democrats and GOP leaders, funds the government through Jan. 30. If it passes, it will still need to clear the House, which will likely take days.

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.
