Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

Whole lot of you following Neil Gaiman, and I assume it's because you forgot you did so and he stopped posting when it was revealed he is a rapist.
Since he's trying to make a return, do yourself a favour and check if you're following @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com and if so unfollow and block.

I often speak of Maurice having "needy" days where he demands to be picked up & held but today I wonder if maybe sometimes he just looks at me reading the news & thinks, "Okay but what would be much better for you would be to be forced to hold a cat & kiss him on the face for ten minutes straight."

There is no reason you can’t honor Holocaust Remembrance Day while also celebrating large boulder the size of a small boulder day…life is full of simultaneous joy and mourning.

There's too much news lately about both ice and ICE. I'm going to start calling the latter ICE-holes. That should help to avoid confusion between winter weather and fascists.

This part. Celebrate every victory, large and small. Celebrate each other. Celebrate the love and solidarity that hold you together. Never stop doing this. It's fundamental.
I don't keep doomers in my feed but since apparently some folks do: "celebrate each and every win, loudly" is Organizing 101

An adorable Cosima for #TuxieTuesday.
I have hesitated to post cats stuff for quite a while, because it seemed frivolous with the state of the world. Screw it, we need cute cats for morale if nothing else.

im sorry but we just spent the last decade being told the biggest issues were pronouns in emails and a trans kid playing jv lacrosse
if you said these things and got paid for it then you need to go away. literally if “woke mind virus” is something youve ever said unironically you need to go away

I keep thinking “my god the people they’ve killed seem like exceptionally good folks” and I think the lesson there is that they’re not exceptional, but that wonderful people abound and that a baseline distrust in humanity is a shitty conservative trope that privileges power over collective strength
you don't become a martyr because you were a saint, you become a saint because you were martyred
I agree that we can’t make Alex Pretti a Benedictine monk because that’s a trap, but we can talk about the good things we did because people will see and hear them and think “I do those things too”

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

At this point, even by the strictest Hobbesian standards, this government has abandoned its duty to serve the public, and is illegitimate.
