Guys it’s an ironic seig heil salute, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic swastika armband, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic concentration camp, just to infuriate the libs. Guys it’s an ironic pact with Russian before a full scale invasion, just to own the libs.

TIL: A fellow Flasher (maybe we need a better name? 🤔) pointed out that pre-launch download registrations are crucial for me. Once the app goes live, all those pre-orders will count as downloads on launch day, potentially giving the app a boost in the charts. So... apps.apple.com/de/app/flash...

Lots of conversations today with upset illustrators who are paying their agents 30% for brokering low-pay children's book contracts with no royalty. A 15% agent commission is standard. A royalty with a guaranteed advance is standard. Think about moving to a literary agent. #kidlit #kidlitart

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

This came across my FYP recently and I wanna talk about it because... well, it ain't wrong. As someone who does a lot of working with folks who struggle with dating, I see this come up a LOT. www.tiktok.com/@jaso... I think there're two distinct reasons why this is and has been a thing.

I really want to see comics twitter rebuild itself here. If you think of yourself as part of that world- whether that means creative, editorial, marketing, retail, library, academia, journalism, criticism, active fan- reply with a "yo" so the funnybook people can find you. RTs help, too!

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.
