follow and welcome elena!!!

pay close attention to the way we talk about about human beings in conversations about AI. in cases like this, exploited workers in other countries are not footnotes to the story, they are the story

🏳️‍🌈 Announcing the Yatta! Pride Project We collaborated with several writers & editors in the industry to write a series of reviews and recommendations on 2SLGBTQIA+ manga titles and will be going live throughout June! Starting June 3rd, 2025!

Over the weekend, I finished up my lettering on the final volume of Land of the Lustrous. Here's the final sound effect I did for it. I'm glad I could finish it out on an extra fancy one! It's been a fun endeavor to make SFX that are harmonious with Ichikawa's gorgeous avant-garde art style. 🧵

TCAF folks — I’ll be manning the @cartoonist.coop table 1-2pm Sat and 12-1pm Sun and helping with member tables. Come say hi!

Here's the full list, by the way. While the Screentoneys are lighthearted, they're also a reminder of the sheer, mind-boggling amount of pure talent that's out there working hard to bring YOU awesome novels and comic books! There's so many colleagues I love and appreciate on this list!

You can disagree with the points YD makes in their post, but it’s important to be aware of how online piracy impacts the original manga/webtoon creators. It’s their work, and many fan translations are created/distributed without their permission or input.

Oh hey, I also chatted with Dan Da Dan season 2 director Abel Gongora about its amazing opening Otonoke, his sci-fi inspirations, and working together with longtime Science Saru collaborator Fuga Yamashiro to make the upcoming season even better than the first. gizmodo.com/dan-da-dan-c...

New release • Mass Transit Mono, Expanded Edition The circular type inspired by public transportation systems in NY and Long Island got a new update! Originally published with one variant, the expanded edition now includes Italics, Bold, and Bold Italics. linktr.ee/wendymurphyo... Please enjoy!

All the words for us were slurs. #queer #pride

love looking at job descriptions at other publishers and finding out that the whole fucking industry has to use custom tools for assembling EPUBs because InDesign is so broken

Remembering Chevalière d'Éon for Pride. A transgender woman in the 1700s who was also a spy and who turned double agent, extorted an entire monarchy to get her gender marker changed, and lived her life as a woman in a time when such was thought impossible. We have always been here.

I have a huge request for my readers: Trump's tax and spending bill will be moving through the Senate. Senators can invoke the Byrd Rule to try to remove the anti-trans Medicaid ban and EHB changes. You can find and call your senator here and ask them to do that. Please share as well.

my brain is crispy fried from work but i somehow managed to get a new design up ✨

I like drawing K’s and R’s like this bc it looks like they have high-waisted pants on
