Our hearts go out to Chris Arrant & everyone at Popverse. Sad news day. A good reminder to financially support the independents doing the good work as corporations dismiss the value of comics and its readers. (Finally just subscribed to The Beat's Patreon)

ordering a “vegetarian taco” off a menu is such a gamble. neither you, the cashier, nor the cook knows what’s gonna come out
GALAXY: THE PRETTIEST STAR got a second printing *because* libraries embraced and celebrated it.
Matthew Noe@noethematt.bsky.social · 7d agoIf you genuinely believe that libraries negatively impact book sales, I don't even know what to say to you.
Update: $21k of the $25k raised! Unfortunately, their insurance didn’t cover everything they lost and a lot of the money will go to cover that gap, so meeting this goal would be a huge help for them. Please continue to share, and thanks everyone for donating/sharing already!

I’ve been saying “next chapter I’ll start putting the simulpub design elements on a different layer so it’s easier to assemble the GN” for 30+ chapters now smh smh
LRP I wish folks from outside the trans + ally community understood how psychologically taxing the last few years in particular have been
Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth
I feel it’s crazy that nobody outside of trans people and REALLY invested allies seems to know that the internal trans refugee crisis is one of the biggest internal refugee migrations the United States has ever experienced.
Casey Explosion@caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 2w agoLike, you know there's an internal refugee crisis facing the US with trans people fleeing their home states, right? Can you understand why trans people might be more than a little on edge, stressed, angry because of the way we're treated? Perhaps extend a little understanding and empathy.

sara linsley@sara.pizza · 2y agoIntroducing my new comic book font, Girl Kisser 🧡🤍💖 It's all-caps, really pretty, super soft, and comes with a wide range of glyphs. It's hand-drawn with a micron pen and hand-traced into vectors, and it's perfect for comic book dialogue. You can find it over here: ko-fi.com/s/b1e9cc34d4
