Shoutout to all my Indigenous and Native friends today. Reminder: last year Canada seized more Indigenous children from their families than at any time in history and the USA hasn’t accounted for thousands of Native children taken through the 20th century.

John Bolton: "It's not entirely clear what Trump is going to do with this Department of Government Efficiency. If we can save a couple hundred billion dollars, I'd be delighted — we can spend it on the defense budget, which desperately needs an increase."

I’ll be posting more here than the other place. The content is mostly blue eyes and human rights. Be kind to one another! ❤️

Remember waking up as a kid and realizing it was the first day of summer vacation?

That’s how it felt waking up in my Manhattan apartment in late 1983, and realizing I could start working all day, every day, drawing comics.

I still love this job 40 years later.
Just wish I drew faster is all… 🤷‍♂️
