"Pronouns used to be a funny joke, Hank. Until the government tried to tell me I couldn't use them anymore. So now I'm adamant about making sure trans people are gendered right. Not for their sake. But because I'll be damned if the US government is going to tell me what words I can and can't use."

"Librarians and booksellers could face up to a year in prison if they’re found to have “distributed” inappropriate material to those under the age of 18. Book displays, book recommendations, and other means of highlighting materials would be folded into the definition of “distributed.”

No country that arrested librarians and booksellers was on the right side of history. But that's what's happening in Arkansas. And this is where your whole country is headed with H.R 7661 and S 4925. Via @everylibrary.bsky.social action.everylibrary.org/arkansasact372

here's another throwback from 2016 a private poster commission inspired by Moby Dick honestly still really love this one, both the concept and execution i worked on pre-inked scratchboard for this one (so fully black) instead of the usual white claybord that i ink myself 30x40cm

a black and white scratchboard illustration inspired by Mody Dick. It depicts a giant white whale about to collide with a whaling ship. The scene is viewed from a bird's eye view, high above the scene. Seagulls are seen orbiting around the scene. The ship and the whale create waves in the water that reinforce the tension between them.

Locking up librarians and booksellers in AR. Locking up women who travel out of state for healthcare in TX. Locking up people for being brown in pretty much every state. Anyone seeing a pattern here? And don't forget, due process is only available if you can afford it.
