Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

Amazon has seemingly removed the Banana Fish AI dub, likely in response to the vocal outcry
It should be noted that they can remove this AI dub, or all of their AI dubs
But they can’t remove the fact that they chose to try to do it in the first place.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Backed by the Heritage Foundation and Big Tech, KOSA will force everyone to upload their ID to access the internet. In an age when Palantir has direct ties to ICE, where technofascists are in power and want to eliminate and censor everything, we CANNOT allow KOSA to pass.
It NEEDS mass pushback.

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

When I was a kid, I saw diversity all over the media I consumed because we all understood it was a good thing. Now suddenly any display of diversity is considered dangerous. Wonder why.

It's super disrespectful, harmful & also stupid. Like, look at your own history and see how hard people fought for things to be better. They were going through a lot worse then we are right now when the government in a lot of cases was ACTIVELY hostile towards their movements and they still did it.
i am on my hands and knees actually begging people to stop doomposting on my posts/calls to action/infographics etc
not only is it bad for YOUR mental health, its bad for MY mental health, and worst of all it may scare off people who otherwise could have been moved to action.
PLEASE STOP IT.

Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy".
Let that sink in.
Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

You can't legally censor consensual "porn" without simultaneously creating the mechanism for the censorship of books and movies and education and activism and mutual aid.
The access we have to resources today — repro rights, LGBTQ+, sex ed— is directly tied to the legalizing of 'porn'

I've had complicated feelings about this comic this year. We've seen so much quiet quitting of rainbow capitalism--a canary in the coal mine. I started wondering if I was naive to not think of when I drew this as "the good times."

Fun fact: in the 1960s, Civil Rights protestors were given literal classes on nonviolent protest; they didn't all just spontaneously know what to do.
So, if you're planning on showing up, this weekend: read this comic. And if you're staying home, signal-boost it/link it around.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️
