GOOD POST

If you have limited political capital, this should be the move. However, I think the entire judiciary should be expanded. Then voting rights and then DC/PR/Virgin Island statehood.

the other reason it has to be done immediately is that it’s the biggest political lift of the bunch

expanding the court is simply Not Done, it hasn’t been seriously discussed since FDR, it’s going to need every last bit of “we just swept these fuckers out of power” cred you have

it cannot wait

there are going to be people who say, take a wait and see approach to how the Court will treat the next Dem president

and those people are wrong, we know exactly how they will treat that person and it is the polar opposite of how they treat Trump

strike at them immediately, first order of business

What's insane is that if someone's like "how do I support you without giving some rich asshole money" is that there's no answer.

Patreon, PayPal, Amazon, Itch*, all of them take a percentage cut

Well said.

a smile that lacks any joy

When Anthropic told the world this month that it had built an artificial intelligence model so powerful that it was too dangerous to release widely, the company named 11 organizations as partners to help mount a defense.

From NYT. "To help mount a defense"? From the machine they built? Which they could destroy? And they turned for help to Amazon? Like Lockheed saying, "oopsie, we built an apocalypse missile! We *could* dismantle it -- or we could ask Raytheon for help selling more!"

comics are so good, i wish people could get paid a livable wage for them

behind-the-scenes 😉

tip: you can be creative anywhere with anything

A four panel comic: Panel 1: A wizard looking at a frog with a human hand in his back saying "We shall see what the anti-grafting peasants think of this!" Panel 2: The frog says "Aren't you the wizard that cooled his orb in a moonwell?" Panel 3: The wizard, rubbing his eyes in frustration, makes the frog vanish Panel 4: The wizard in a chair, poking an orb with the text "BARRICADED" over and over again.

Here's my original character Waffles the Wizard.

He was hired by the king to maintain the ley lines that used to work great.

fuck sam altman forever for taking away the last places where we could engage in good faith: the creative arts, which should be a testament to human ingenuity. i am so mad that everything i read or listen to or admire is now tainted with doubt. do you understand? he is a thief of joy and i HATE HIM

I'm sorry for your loss

the way this makes sense for RFK is that "healthy people" and "sick people" are ontological categories.

I’m reposting the broth video because sometimes I just need to see it

you have to believe in a better world for it to happen. you have to believe in a better you for them to exist. you have to find a kind of joy in solving the problems that move us closer to a better world. there is no unimportant love, or joy. each one makes you better at fixing the world.

You can, in fact, not like a thing.

You don't have to sign on and vet social media/seek permission to not like something.

You can respect the effort, hard work, and skill that goes into a thing, and still not like it.

thats how taste works. Seriously it's fine.

I just saw a post that was the usual complaining about furry incest that also had the line “using the term puppy is genuinely weird and disgusting”

why are you even a furry

Won't someone please think of those inheriting valuable property who are incapable of financial planning or arithmetic?

Remember this every time a Reasonable Democrat says we should be onboard with legal/technical measures to stop minors from accessing adult content

Once you create a category of Bannable Speech, you've created a tool for the powerful to ban any speech they want; just put it in the Bannable category.

i cannot overstate as an american how much i want our tech giants to face actual consequences for their bullshit, and i hope the entirety of the EU follows suit with this

If you let them ban porn, they will call you pornographic when they ban you.

Did another trade with @ceehaz.bsky.social ! Got to do further anatomy practice with Rory. 😋

I actually had to draw the pose twice because the first one was too boring, and I wanted to try something more dynamic.

you can no longer read this. I've removed all the "public nudity" (sex words) and submitted it for review.

So, as per Patreon, keep in mind: describing sex counts as public indecency. Yes, really.

I hope I live to see the death of puritanism. This is hell.
