I keep thinking about this, honestly. It's going to be a covid situation where it's going to result in something that'll be a net good, like MRNA vaccines curing cancer and stuff. hopefully.
people are going to take notice how countries that have embraced renewables are doing far better
...should get your rating immediately bumped up to TV-14 or whatever. That's heavy handed BS.
This is the government's way of telling media companies to actively exclude stories that seem like they might have to do with trans issues. It's not subtle!
Seems bad that the Trump administration is trying to use the FCC to scare media companies into actively avoiding stories related to trans people, tbh.

Hello! I still badly need work in narrative design or game writing etc. I’ve been in games for 20 years and I’m responsible for the mobile smash hit Lily’s Garden. I will take on full-time or contract work but I really need to pick something up soon. Please get in touch if you have/know of something
genuinely, my experience of transition has been unequivocally fantastic with two specific exceptions:
- cis people giving me shit now
- processing trauma from cis people who gave me shit in the past
everything else is unmitigated joy.
He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence
We really are gonna have to see these people investigated and locked up. This is the most nakedly corrupt, criminal, and authoritarian administration we’ve seen maybe ever?
People need to be held accountable up to the top to ensure this never happens again. Examples must be made.
I'm having a hard time believing my eyes with water data this year.
The Colorado River mainstem through Grand Junction was flowing at 54 cfs last night. Not a typo. 54 cfs.
Last year on this date it was flowing at 1,420cfs. Even in 2002, the driest year on record, it was at 690cfs on April 22.
I don’t “network,” I make friends. Other artists are not my competition, they’re my beloved peers and sources of inspiration. We all have the same goal; to share our art. I’m not gonna corporatize my human relationships with them. I am in my sandbox playing and I hope they join me.
Some fun news: I finally built a standalone webcomic site for The Goblin Throne! If you're interested in a nice, easy place to read the first two parts of this graphic novel (perhaps before the Kickstarter goes live in June, wink wink), this is the place for you 😈 www.thegoblinthrone.com/comic/001/
You know what's really amazing? Writing about comics. The Comics staple is a NEW monthly zine that will be shipping directly to YOUR mailbox starting this fall!

Mask vending machine at JFK
So great to see JFK airport still has mask vending machines, which have 3M Auras!
In the last few weeks I've spoken to two executives at a major streamer - one in adult animation, one in preschool content for both animation and live action - and both basically told me the same thing: they're looking for YouTube success stories with huge subscriber bases. 🧵
It depresses me to see the ever shrinking spaces we have for children extend even to animation, a medium that US audiences have been primed to think of as For Children!! What are we doing!!!
Sec. Hegseth: "It's Just Gay" To Require Our Warriors To Wash Hands After Using The Bathroom
a drawing of the artist with a thought bubble above her head with various screenshots from anime/comics/movies
the artist stares blankly at you and says "this will make sense one day"
storyboarding
Beth worked as a doctor for years until a transphobe turned up. Now, she's had to leave her job, leave her home, move to the other side of the world and is still being hounded and harassed by the media and cult.
She did nothing but exist as trans in the orbit of Sandie Peggie.
Madeline L’Engle’s Time Quintet 👀
"Erm, she didn't have to change anything about her platform to get Liz Cheney and a bunch of Bush-era Republicans on board!"
So close to understanding why the left wasn't super duper thrilled about what she ran on. So close.

My book is out now!!
Jacob’s Transition Goals is a positive, hopeful story about an 8 year old transgender boy who loves football. In today’s political climate, trans joy is so needed - you should grab a copy!
You can buy Jacob’s Transition Goals in LGBTQ+ bookshops and online all over the world
Similarly, folks just found on TikTok for example that their clips are automatically available for AI remixes and you have to go through every video one at a time to turn that off. There’s no universal setting to prevent it. And no consent was ever asked for or given.

You have got to be kidding me, man. What bizarro definition of "progressive" are you working from?
The people that whip themselves into a frenzy over trans athletes convince themselves all trans women are predator men who want to attack women and it’s exactly like every trans feminine person said about how the sports bans are just the first step into broader hate against trans people.
I don't know how anyone can accept a racist and transphobe as a campaigner for the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein when some of his survivors are neither white nor cis.
It will be extremely interesting to see what institutions like Fenway Health and NYU Langone do now. The ostensible reason for their ending of youth gender care is now gone - will they resume care for all the trans kids they abandoned?
“Over on Twitter, they’re” shhhhh. Shhh.
Shh.
advertising technology in the 1990s: look at this “website” you can “surf”. it has an image of a cat on it
advertising technology in the 2020s: you must adopt this now or die. we are going to completely kill you if you don’t download this app immediately
Excited that InfoWars has switched sides in the infowars
a black and white design that reads "you could learn a lot from a lesbian." to the right of the text are various items such as carabiners, a boot, a lollipop, a hammer, a boot, an apple, a lighter, cherries, a bouquet of flowers, a butterfly wing, and many stars. the entire image is textured to be grainy.
happy #lesbianvisibilityweek!
