When I was volunteering at the COVID19 vaccine POD in 2021, people would say over and over again that they were getting vaccinated for the people they love. Last year, only 17.5% of American adults got the COVID19 vaccine. Please get one for the people you love. 💕

PAID COMICS ARTIST GIGS - For the first time since COMICS ARE DYING: THE COMIC, comic book writer / editor Louis Southard is back curating a brand new anthology comic book special! The only thing that’s missing? YOU!!!
OLD TRICK from my advertising days - since the last modified may not be the approved or printed version. I usually just number the versions that I submit for feedback or approval, but this is how I handle the print-ready files that I send to a pub.
Apropos of I am VERY mad for a friend: If you have not made a comic book before and are coming from other media writing, GET A COMICS EDITOR. Comics looks easy. There are 1,000 sins you will commit if you haven't written a comic before and an editor will save your ass.
Try to enjoy every project as a learning experience for the next one, instead of needing it to be your Perfect Magnum Opus. 👍
Hey artists, let's share some helpful things in the community :) 🎨 What's one tip or trick you would give a new artist in your chosen medium? (Or just in general!)

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.
I wish I'd had a history teacher like Chris; he always makes these stories breathtakingly fascinating.
On this day in 1850, John Horse tried valiantly to lead a band of more than 200 Black folks, Seminole, and displaced Kickapoo across the Rio Grande to freedom in Mexico under hot pursuit by bounty hunters, a Comanche war party, and the Texas Rangers. 1/🧵

Reuters: U.S. SUPREME COURT RULES IN FAVOR OF IDAHO, WEST VIRGINIA LAWS BANNING TRANSGENDER ATHLETES FROM PARTICIPATING ON FEMALE SPORTS TEAMS
even if it was good policy, this shit is completely ancillary to the goal of actually limiting the power of big tech. Elon Musk has a trillion dollars and is trying to start a global race war, your response to that can’t be “kids should be on their phones less”
Dems' "Project 2029" first major policy proposal: an online child safety plan — narrowing Sec. 230, banning social media for kids under 16, promoting phone-free childhoods and more. Already backed by Cory Booker, Mikie Sherrill, Randi Weingarten + Jonathan Haidt. LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
I am not a lawyer but I know the Supreme Court’s rulings today violate international agreements on refugees & migrations that the US is party to. Because international law matters when states enforce it, this is a political window for democrats to insist the treatment of refugees & migrants matters
Comics editing is such a beautiful and specific skillset. Being able to stay objective and balance all the different layers of the book to make the best end result is such a delicate, nuanced ability! This is a shout out to editors, you are all irreplaceable gems
Ive decided i love the way Nextdoor presents its message summaries
With this salvo, Kansas has escalated what will be a federal effort to establish a Jim Crow system of lawfully enforced second-class citizenship aimed at trans American It was already the case but now it's inarguable; anyone who doesn't fully support trans people is an enemy of all civil rights.
So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.
