Me, 20 hours into a drawing "hey, what if I made this more complicated?"
The Chi-Chi/Tybalt playing card is available as a print, to hang whichever way you like — I know I'll switch it up: www.inprnt.com/gallery/cath...
My least favourite thing about being poor is that drawing with €7 brushes is ten times harder than with €20 ones.
Unexpected juxtaposition in the F section of the DVD shelves at my local library. (Robbed it like I was in the Criterion Closet).
Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.
lot of "allies" showing their asses in the wake of the platner rape allegations and reminding us to choose the bear every time
Kat Tenbarge@kattenbarge.bsky.social · 4w agoTrying to pick apart a woman's text messages to prove she's lying about being raped is gutter behavior. Consent can be revoked at any time and reading insinuations into text messages that the sender denies were there is ACTUAL journalistic malpractice. I would not trust a man who does this!
Spent 8 hours putting lipstick on a pig, seriously starting to consider a career change because what the fuck is this.
One thing I don’t think men understand is that rape and assault are so ubiquitous—and so perpetually immune from consequence or recognition—that many women learn to talk about these incidents as of they’re mere inconveniences. We are not allowed to treat them with more gravity.
I am backing this, and so should you.

Happy Gone Girl Day! Leave your mediocre husband, go on a road trip, write a novel, off a stalker… Whatever makes you happy!
The New Yorker puzzles have been giving me more praise in one week than I got from my mother in almost four decades.
Cath Kastner@cathkastner.bsky.social · last mo.Cannot wait for this heatwave to be over because this right here is the most excited and happy I've been all week. Yesterday I downloaded the NYT Games app. This has to stop.

The amount of human suffering, injury, and illness that has been avoided by the advent of hormonal contraception is staggering; the amount of human potential, talent, and innovation that it has unleashed should make you weep with gratitude.
Kathleen Bachynski@bachynski.bsky.social · last mo.Wow. And no. “I am not completely opposed to contraception. I think, though, that women in particular should behave as if contraception doesn’t exist… Maybe that’s my concrete proposal: that you should use contraception within marriage rather than as a means of seeming to have consequence-free sex.”
Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.
I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

Ryan Estrada@ryanestrada.com · last mo.A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.
