Dianne Jackson mastered the art of turning illustrations into animation. She did it in her film The Snowman, in the Peter Rabbit series and more.

Millions know Jackson's work, but few know about her. Our new issue tells the story of this great artist: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-unsung...

I need folks to realize that every single disabled person has been living in a state of constant trauma for years.

Not only was my life personally ruined, I got to watch my friends die in various states of neglect. I had people I trusted suddenly decide to stop caring about my safety.

That is the kind of post that makes the internet worth it. 👍🏻
The Welsh told the Saxons this hill was called "pen" (meaning "hill"). The Saxons added their word for hill, "tor," and called it Torpen (hill hill).

Later the Norse added their world for hill. So it became Torpen Haugr (Hill Hill Hill).

Now the English call it Torpenhow Hill (Hill Hill Hill Hill)

Musk is a technological genius in precisely the same sense that Trump is a successful businessman.

The censorship on Twitter was just too much. A 98% drop in engagement since Musk bought it. From a little over 1,000,000 views a week to less than 17,000.

So we moved on over to blue sky.

Let me save everyone some time and confusion:

"White feminism," is not the same as "Feminists who are white."

I learn from feminists who are white every day.👍🏿

But I reject white feminism entirely. It's a danger to Black people, and I address it like the threat that it is. I make no space for it.

especially listen to the language being used. calling lgbtqia folks mentally ill, etc.
Essentially it’s fruit of the same tree. They’re still using ableism and applying it to trans people. Anyone who defies “normalcy” is considered disabled by their society whether they have a disability or not.
hi Imani! do you have an explanation for why trans people have become *the* scapegoat for this administration rather than e.g. disabled people? (since eugenics/fascism rise during a pandemic, I thought more backlash would be against disabled people/those who the RW think "make the nation weak")
