URGENT: Following yesterday's public protests & our thread calling for everyone to contact their MP urgently here is some guidance on what you might say in an email.
This is not a time for thinking someone else will fix this. Please read, share and ACT!

In the meantime, as well as badgering your MP, may I suggest making a donation to a trans organisation like transactual.org.uk?
Also very happy to take suggestions of other credible orgs from trans folks.
The back of a black jacket with a white line drawing of a skull in a furry aviator-style hat. The eyes of its ski goggles have crosses through them and it is wearing earmuffs over the hat which have joysticks where the puffs of the earmuffs would be. The illustrator's name (Lillian Hochwender) is signed underneath. The jacket is on a bright orange background.
A blond-haired knight looks upwards at an ethereal yellow flame floating over their head, their hair caught in an unseen breeze. Layered over their silver armour is a singed white garment with a picture of two four-pointed stars. Over that is a dark red cloak with a darker turquoise interior, gold detailing and fur around the collar. There are images of crescent moons on either side of the cloak. There are two yellow plumes coming from their silver helmet. The background is a black arch shape surrounded by a dusky grey-blue.
A headline from The Gutter Review saying "Bringing the Past to Life: Bernie Wrightson's Frankenstein at 40"
A comic page drawn by Gabe Martini, showing an androgynous white sailor floating under water while psychically talking to a sea monster. The sea monster isn’t fully visible, its many tentacles covered in glowing eyes. The page is colored in shades of blue and yellow.

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.
They are cool with draining the grid and the aquifers if it means they can replace human labor. That's the whole story, and I wish we heard it told exactly like that more often.
“You will be visited by three spirits.”
The three spirits:
Here we go folks, the LAST DAY of the Just Us: Rex crowdfunding campaign and we are at an amazing 97%!
That means we’re less than $70 from our goal!
That’s CRAZY! This campaign has made me feel so much joy. I can’t wait for you guys to see everything this book has in store.
The Library of Congress has literally one gazillion public domain photos and illustrations that are free to use for your projects!

Today, the UK government announced a proposal to change copyright law - for the benefit of AI companies - that would cause huge, irreversible harm to creators.

It’s easy to look at the Jesse singal situation and think “not my problem” or “yeah hope he gets tossed but whatever”, but i do genuinely believe it’s important we make it extremely clear to Bluesky that this should not become a place that welcomes antitrans bigotry and harassment chng.it/GbrnQ7dkWj
Cropped image of a character wearing a yellow vest, a white t shirt that reads “princess”, blue trousers. They have a headband and mid length spiky hair. They are holding a black rod of sorts but the crop on the image is too close to tell what it is.
I’ve been sick these past few weeks so getting stuff done is hard but i’m testing out some colours on a v rough sketch
My favorite variant I’ve done for the year! Wonder Woman #18! Wanted her to look like a GLOW wrestler.

When your own body turns against you, making art hurts twice as much. It’s soul crushing, but we power on.
This is so coooool! Damnn
I, along with many other artists have been wrongly placed on this list. I have never used AI in my work.
