Panel 1: a city scape in early dusk Text: What a day… Panel 2: A redhead character Sage (wearing a smiling mask) looks at their phone and leans against the apartment hallway by a door with stickers, remembering their tough day with coworkers, presenting and loud sounds on the train Panel 3 The door opens, a spiky head popping out Panel 4 The spiky head, Lan, smiles brightly Lan: SAGEY BABE! Thanks for coming over! Panel 5 The mask falls from Sage’s face who waves back with a subdued smile. Sage’s thoughts: Cute… Panel 6 Sage passes by Lan who closes the door Sage: (monotone) Hey Lan. Did you have a good day? Panel 7 Lan peers at Sage worriedly. Lan’s thoughts: No smile…?

Panel 1 A kettle pours hot water into a cup with a tea bag, popping out apple icons Panel 2 A hand takes a book out from the bookshelf Panel 3 Sage stands in comfy clothes holding a hot mug and a book, looking subtly pleased Panel 4 Sage enters the living room and sees Lan playing a video game Panel 5 Sage sits down to Lan who looks excited to see her partner join her Panel 6 Sage affectionately leans their shoulder against Lan as they sip and tea and read the book. Panel 7 Once again, Lan looks terribly worried.

Panel 1 Lan sets her game controller down Lan: Sage… Panel 2 Lan looks over at Sage who continues reading. Lan: …Can I ask something? Sage: Hm? Panel 3 Lan looks at Sage anxiously who spits out their tea from what their girlfriend is saying. Lan: Are you mad at me? Sage: PPFFT!! Panel 4 Sage looks guilty as Lan worriedly speaks. Lan: When you came home, you didn’t smile and your voice was so flat. And earlier, when you sat down, you didn’t say anything! Sage’s thoughts: Boy, that DOES seem like I’m mad at her!!! Panel 5 Lan looks down sadly as Sage’s hand shoots out to reassure her. Lan: Did I eat the last bean burrito…? Sage: NO, NO, you’re fine, Lan!

Jey is hit with a spark of inspiration. Jey: You know what? I think I want to try going on a low dose of T! Max: OH!! If you're sure, I've got your back. The two reach over the bench together to hold hands.

I have a lovely supportive spouse and things just felt right to start. Jey and Max lean on one another lovingly.

Narration: However-- A much younger Jey appears suddenly, clearly very upset. Young Jey has longer bangs swept to one side and wears a vest with a bowtie and slacks. Young Jey: But we said we'd never go on T! Narration: An intrusive thought from my 25-year-old self screamed at me. Jey looks on with a gentle smile.

every single actor who willingly associates themselves with jk rowling and harry potter should be ashamed of themselves

NOOO I MISSED THE PARAS 😭😭 they are my favourite!!

A series of infographics featuring the Cartoonist Cooperative's mascots Inkling (an inkwell) and Nibford (a dip pen) as they share information about what a phone or email zap is. Image one shows Inkling on the phone, reading from a script. Text reads, "What is a phone or email zap? A phone (or email) zap is a coordinated campaign where many people contact a target (such as a company, agency, or representative) to apply pressure and demand action on one issue." The Co-op logo and website appear at the bottom of all three images: https://cartoonist.coop/.

Nibford sits at a desk, calling someone on the phone while looking at their computer screen. Text reads, "How can I organize one? Agree on a target and an issue to collectively press for. Gather scripts ahead of time. Coordinate a time when everyone is available to call/email. Hang out IRL or in a voice call together! Log any feedback and share updates with your fellow zappers! Keep it up until demands are met! This is a marathon, not a race."

Inkling and Nibford jump for joy with confetti raining down around them. Text reads, "And most importantly... celebrate your wins!"

Members, the Coop is calling on you to participate in our upcoming zap sessions to take collective action regarding censorship & pay discrimination for 18+, erotic, and NSFW artists.

Look out on Discord for more info about when and how to join, coming soon.

I’ve finished my comic! 86 pages of fantasy catgirl drama coming to SBCF in a couple months 🐱

I think the same with meltdowns too! I have such big physical effects from them (nausea to the point of sickness, dizziness, unable to hear, short of breath, etc) and doctors are so quick to label it anxiety and prescribe pills. Such easy accommodations can help a meltdown instead of pills

moving house means getting to know all the neighbourhood cats and name them,, so far we've got molly, midnight, pitch black, aslan, mew, and mr. boss

Pieces by Maya Merigeau and Lily Bernard

a hastily drawn but still appealing promo comic. There are two panels. In the top panel, Bex and her pal Richard smile at the camera. Richard waves while Bex holds up a copy of their comic. Bex says, "I've been working my ass off for most of the last year on a brand new comic! It was written by one of my best friends, Richard Bass, and drawn by me!" Richard says, "hello!" In the second panel, Bex is crying drawing at her desk. She wails, "How the heck do I draw an explosion???" Future Bex puts a hand on the bakc of her chair and says towards the camera, "I honestly think it's the best comic art I've ever drawn. I had to learn a lot of new things for this and I think it paid off."

A close-up panel of Bex with her hands clapped together. She smiles into the camera and says, "So I really really really really really want people to read it!!!"

An even more close-up close-up shot of Bex. She looks a little bit crazy-eyed and scary. She says, "I'm serious. Please read this." A shepherd's crook appears around her neck.

The last panel is very small, a zoomed out shot of Richard dragging Bex away with the shepherd's crook. She yells, "I worked so hard on it!!! pleeeeeeease!" while Richard says "OK, grandma, let's get you to bed."
