Sometimes I get paid to draw. Sometimes I don't, but I draw anyways. If you don't know why you're following me, read my comic in my pinned bloot (I think the posts here should be called bloots). 🏳️‍⚧️

QRP with your header art!! Mine is a detail of the 1st age of a comic I put up on the internet roughly 6 months ago. You can read it for free at hamf.ist!

For Disability Pride Month I’m once again begging for more artists to start considering accessibility and add alt text to your images. It helps low/no vision folks, neurodivergent folks, and more. Plus alt text shows up in searches! There’s a toggle in settings so you won’t forget. 👇

A reminder to our WGA West friends that if you feel you've been handed anything created by generative AI, been asked to use it, even have a WHIFF of it, the Guild and AI Committee want to hear from you! There's a form! www.wga.org/contracts/kn...

Just FYI to LA folks: If you see ICE in your community, call the LA Rapid Response Network Hotline at 1-888-624-4752 to report it.

Hey LA - report đź§Šđź§Šđź§Š

We do not support gen AI in the book, art and music communities. Ever. It has no place amongst human expression. It’s soulless, it’s theft and it’s damaging the planet. If you use it knowing that, you have betrayed your fellow humans, and I want nothing to do with you.

Here is a clip of the student's speech.

everytime some science, health or medicine guy/org comes along to critique the cass review it basically just says everything I said in my piece about it for Novara Media the week it came out. think how much time and money could be saved just listening to trans people about this stuff.

TW: IPV, murder of a trans woman. The last I read, every trans person murdered in the US this year has been Black. Every. Single. One. None of us will ever be safe until Black trans women are free to mind their business and live out their years as they see fit.

Somewhere along the 30ish years of working in animation I started making a habit of grabbing the nameplates from my various office doors and cubicle walls as I left, just to have something to keep as a memento of each specific gig.

The conservative movement has turned against reality on every scientific issue of our time, from gun violence to climate change to epidemiology. If campuses are ideologically homogenous, it's not because academia has ostracized conservatives. It's because conservatives have ostracized academia.

Reposting this for the morning crowd: if you're on androgel, check you lot numbers. There's a carcinogen in it.

I had a joke about Calendar Man, but it's kinda dated.
