Karam has many unique photos and spoke with @ahmedhijazi.bsky.social who confirmed his family’s story (he is also the brother of Doaa who I separately verified and have up to share tomorrow).
Karam is especially hoping to be able to get enough help to buy some flour for him and his family ❤️

Right back at ya!! I'm not award winning. Just writing about LGBTQ issues, constitutional law, and the producer of @dragbiblestudy.bsky.social.
But my senator spewed anti-trans right-wing talking points, and I decided to take him and a few others to task:

7. The bridge lighting honors the Stonewall Riots of June 1969, which was sparked by Black trans people and drag queens resisting police violence at the Stonewall Inn in New York City. The uprising inspired queer liberation actions across the country and the globe.

2. This year, as the hordes of rally-goers approached the Main Street Bridge in Jacksonville, flashlights in tow, the drawbridge began to rise—with no warning and no boats approaching. The bridge stayed upright until the marchers turned around and left, but they didn’t go home.

You know who just modernized their incentives? New York.
Cali is still dealing with incentives from like a decade ago or whatever, but New York just this year passed a bill saying "make an animated episode for 500k and you get a rebate"
That's in the range for an animated 11 minute episode.

That "less biased" bit is made up, but it's a way that people can think, whether they mean to or not. "You're directly impacted by this money, so of COURSE you want it to happen" but someone who isn't directly impacted is seen, psychologically, as like an outsider. It's a trick our brains play on us

I adore any cartoon that allows itself to be feel-good and atmospheric, esp kids' cartoons where it can often be discouraged. Plus the art style and animation are both top-notch in an era where everything seems to be getting cheaper.
I just think "Wylde Pak" and I are gonna get along really well.

The first episode has been officially posted in full, too.
I know original cartoons have a history of not lasting nowadays, but I'm of the opinion that even if they fall victim, they deserve to be cherished in the moment. Especially if one has a chance of standing out.
