An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.
May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.

The day after we put the final touches on issues #88-91 of “Swamp Thing”, news broke about the passing of Tatjana Wood, the original colorist on the series. Tomorrow, March 2nd, would have been Tatjana’s 100th birthday. Let’s raise a glass to one of comics’ originals.
The misinformation campaigns and confusion around this war are a reminder of the stakes involved in the coverage of the proposed WB/Paramount merger.
Sen. Tim Kaine shuts down claims from war hawks that there was an "imminent" threat from Iran:
I miss when both took place in their own separate universes. Recently re-read Moore's WildCATS, and man, it would've been interesting to read continued stories set in that universe.
It'd be helpful for those who are interested in electoral activism - if you were to call your democratic senator, what would you be asking them to do (other than write better statements in opposition)?
I think you'll love White Noise - still one of my favorite Delillo books.
I think that more people should cover/discuss options for the Democratic Party that account for its minority status in Congress.
A side note - I've never liked how journalists phrase these kinds of articles - the first part of the sentence suggests a certainty that is undermined by the second part. An event has occurred (according to word on the street).
This was my response when my agents asked if I wanted to pitch on this reboot back in November. I really hope more creatives do the same so that the likes of Max Landis are all they can hire. I may not make an honest buck but I’m a hundred per cent American and I don’t work for no two-bit Nazi.
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
X as a website encourages people to do bigotry for likes and affirmation and this is the people who identify as left wing on there have decided it is morally acceptable to indulge in bsky.app/profile/bfis...
This doesn't seem like a good idea if you want a smart and effective military.
If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

We genuinely need a revival of virtue in the United States.
In my view, that’s almost as critical a project as any other structural reform project necessary in the wake of trumpism. We should become a society that actually values human life such that we would feel shame about this.
Another reminder that no one takes fiduciary duties seriously.
Welp!
Not too worried yet - this feels like a standard-ish bidding process so far. Netflix isn’t near their ceiling yet.
Hey we've got tons of people in MN, can you help out a friend.
Fun news!
Very interesting (and thought provoking) quote.

We need NYC-based authors/writers to use their skills to share the importance of public libraries in the 21st century. If this is you, write things and post them to all of your networks.

"Purdue has since warned faculty against speaking with the media."
This is a lesson for all mission driven non profits.
