And finally the most cursed, shaman’s crest (I’m so sorry it looks like she’s wearing poop, I promise I tried to make it not look like poop)

“So what if he disagreed with you, he didn’t deserve to die”

But he thought I did.

This isn’t disagreement. It’s someone who was not only opposed to my existence but was called a good and faithful servant by the church for doing it.

I don’t have to mourn that. And asking me to is violence too.

Traditional art done in marker and colored pencil. The picture is bright and colorful. It shows an orange striped cat climbing a branch of a tangerine tree, sniffing the tangerines growing on it. The picture has checker-flower patterns framing it on the top and bottom.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Actor Jonathan Joss Dies at 59 Joss, who is Native American and known for roles in 'King of the Hill' and 'Parks and Recreation,' was killed in a shooting outside his home in Texas.

This one hurts my heart and fills me with rage. Jonathan Joss was murdered last night by some bigoted, dickless piece of shit who couldn't stand to see two men love each other with all their hearts.

Today, I stand with everyone in the LGBTQ+ community who mourns the loss of this kind soul.

one thing I respect about medieval beekeepers is their total commitment to looking like Doctor Who villains

A text image with a yellow headline and white subtitle on a dark gray background.

Headline: Eugenics is bad, actually

Subtitle: Identifying human traits as problems needing correction is a supremacist mindset (And thinking it’s totally obvious that we should be “optimizing” humanity for specific traits cements that)

Footer: SKH.news

Twitter post/pohoto from JK Rowling who sits on what looks like yacht, taking a puff of what looks like a cigar.  She holds a cocktail close to her face and looks smug as fuck. Text on tweet: I love it when a plan comes together. #SupremeCourt #WomensRights.

Text on screen: our.moral.imperative British billionaire JK Rowling has posted several gloating tweets today after the UK
Supreme Court ruled that only 'biological women' legally count as women, excluding trans women from legal protections and safeguards.
Rowling's vicious smear campaign against trans people in Britain has been going on for several years now and has played a major role in cultivating the extremely hostile and toxic environment that exists in the country towards trans people, particularly in the name of liberal 'feminism'.

You all need to treat Harry Potter IP like we’re treating the Tesla brand.

A man asks another man with a flabbergasted expression "why are you looking at my feet, Lawrence?" Lawrence kneels down, points to the first man's shoes and asks "are those... are those Sora's shoes from Kingdom Hearts?" The first man asks "what's Kingdom Hearts?" Lawrence grips the side of his head in disbelief. He says "the mystery deepens further..." The first man, annoyed, says "these are medical orthotics, Lawrence."

Majority of attempts to ban books in US come from organised groups, not parents Last year 72% of demands to censor books were initiated by pressure groups and government entities; with just 16% of ban attempts made by parents

This is exactly why we need to be organized in our defense of the freedom to read. The book banners are organized & we'll funded. But they are also unpopular. Our numbers can beat their money

Image shows 2 anime teenagers crouched next to each other. The two are blushing in an awkward but intimate moment.

I forgot what it was like to have fun in your sketchbook, but my coworkers showed me how last night. Created this sketch this afternoon.

A very stylized assortment of people wielding arm cannons à la newer iterations of Metroid intermixed with trans flags. The caption reads: "Repost this if Trans people should have
Samus Arm Cannons"
