this is basically the most effective thing you as an individual can do to fuck with ICE and good on this dude for dedicating his retirement to fucking with them
His goal is straightforward: He wants to make ICE agents uncomfortable. The way Grambo sees it, it’s a numbers game. If he can draw the attention of officers to himself, perhaps fewer immigrants will get swept up, and that’s a win. “I know I can’t stop them,” he said, “but if I can suck up their time, then at least I can help some people.” While he’s at it, Grambo also hopes to deflate the agents’ spirits. It’s a lesson he took from his days in the military, having joined the Navy shortly after 9/11 and served as an aircraft mechanic with tours in Japan and Guam before retiring as a chief petty officer in 2022. “I want their morale as low as possible,” he said, “because a team with low morale is ineffective.”

Anyway, all this is to say: keep going, other writers out there. It's not alway fun, and sometimes it's really not fun at all. But if you keep writing, eventually, you'll have written. If you just scroll, well, you end up with a grumpy brain and no pages.

I was retraining myself from info dumping everything i love about Sleeper and Dylan and I deserve a little treat
tsartistry.bsky.social thepreciousthing @tsartistry.bsky.social · 1d
I have written entire essays about them both, but in a nutshell:

Sleeper (the cat) - Personality of a 20something who just came home from University. Trauma-related control issues, refuses to take a permanent host. Loves its family very much and will prioritize their safety over morals & ethics

NEW: Trump's DOJ sent a subpoena to a gender-affirming care clinic seeking information on patients, including minors, and its insurance billing practices. The clinic—which doesn't even take insurance—fought the demand in court and won.

The meme of "my body is a machine that turns 'the passage of time' into 'not writing'." This is a joke about writing and how so much of writing is not writing— or at least, that's what I tell myself when I am avoiding writing, which is a big part of my actual job. I mean writing, not *not* writing. Bosses: do not look at this, especially if you are expecting something from me soon. Obviously, everything is going great. I am not procrastinating by making this meme. I am not deliberately wasting time in every possible way I can think of after already having made breakfast int he most laborious way possible, catching up on email and slack messages, engaging in some discord discourse, and checking every social media feed I have the misfortune to remain entangled with, and I fully intend on starting to write for real the moment I hit the button to send this tweet. Yes, I still call them tweets. It's an act of resistance at this point, calling them tweets. I remember there was some discussion of what to call them, and I have to say I did laugh about "skeets," since the act is comparable in some ways: it feels good in the moment, but results in something useless and gross just moments later... is this too much to get into here? I don't know if the wrongheadedly censorious people who run this platform even check descriptive alt text, come to think of it. Anyway, I should get back to writing, for real, which I will do now. That reminds me, did you catch the discourse the other day about dialogue choices in games? I don't have much to say, really, other than that creative works can be literally whatever you want them to be, so arguing about them isn't as productive as simply making the work you want to see in the world (and which I'll get back to doing in just a moment). If you want to see my approach to dialogue choices, why not play my visual novel, Eliza? If you've made it this far and haven't yet, I suggest you check it out. Okay, back to writing for real now. Definitely.

The comic pages vs the inspirations
Panel of Blackheart from Avengers Academt #29 as he sits curled up in the broken window frame of a cathedral. His arm crosses over his face obscuring half of it as he leans in, almost cradling himself. He looks downcast with sorrow and trepidation Caramels Fallen Angel depicting Lucifer stretched across the stones, holding his arm in front of his face as it obscures it, leaving just his sorrowful yet wrathful gaze after his expulsion from heaven Panel from Avengers Academy #60 featuring escapade and bloodline dramatically reaching for the tusk of ratatoskir stake. They are in the same pose as Anthy and Utena in the next image. Above bloodline is apostate, conflicted in her feelings, reaching towards Brielle. Below escapade is Jamie Chopra the Black Knight reaching towards Shela with longingly. Large and Above them all is Lady Loki appearingly at the helm of all this choas Screenshot of the opening sequence of Revolutionary Girl Utena, featuring Anthy and Utena reaching out for each other as they are being pulled away by unseen forces. The same poses that Escapade and Bloodline are in in the previous image

Now that the final issue of Avengers Academy is out, I just want to say thank you. To my incredible team, and to our incredible readers. Every week has been such a joy. AvAc has been such a career highlight for me--I truly love this story & this cast & I deeply mourn its end. Thank you again 🌹✨
Illustration of the Main Avengers Academy crew (Shela, Brielle, Blackheart, Lunella, Normie, Justin, Aaron, Devil Dinosaur) in a retro inspired thank you poster. The cast are all embracing each other, and smiling. On the top left corner it says "thank you" and the bottom right is the logo for Avengers Academy

Grass roots organizing (which died out long ago) would reveal what kinds of candidates might win. Now that parties are just elite media companies and consultants, they can only grope at what they think the littles might want.

No Kings protests were one of the few times Trump, MAGA, and right-wing media were reacting to something the opposition did, rather than the opposition reacting to whatever they do.
Adopt a principle from war strategy: generally better to be taking action and forcing opponents to react. Good point.

Point five is really important. The protests provoked errors from the administration (shit force one) that may haunt them for years. That’s what happens when you stop being reactive.

Several of the women I interviewed belong to religious communities that strongly oppose gender-affirming care, and yet were taking testosterone in amounts comparable to those taken by some trans men.
