current state of social media: - fb is for seeing slop by pages you never followed - bluesky is for political panic - insta posts are for pictures of your friends and celebrities but insta stories are for political panic - tumblr is for accidentally seeing tits in public despite the porn ban

Schumer: "For sure, the Republican bill is a terrible option. It is not a clean CR. It is deeply partisan. It doesn't address far too many of this country's needs. But I believe allowing Donald Trump to take even much more power via a government shutdown is a far worse option."

RFK Jr on the measles vaccine: "There are adverse events from the vaccine. It does cause deaths every year. It causes all the illnesses that measles itself cause."

Dear cis people, It's well past the point where this kind of thing will fix everything, but I want you to take note of how easy this is. These little freaks are soft-handed little babies that will fold like a napkin in the rain. Light these fools up.

Texas Republican Keithself storms out of the meeting he's supposed to be running because a Democrat asked him to treat his colleague Sarah McBride with respect. These people would not last one day as a trans person.

Please please please just make your fucking comic. It doesn't have to have mass appeal or be marketable. I'm literally making a comic about gay aztec steampunks. A publisher would laugh me out the door. I still have a budding audience!! And even then! If it brings you joy, make the fucking comic!
