Satellite proposals threaten the night sky In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the agency responsible for authorizing satellite launches and operations…

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan.

An illustrated cover for a short comic called The Hearth by lainey williams. A cabin sits in a clearing in a snowy forest. The small windows in the log cabin are lit yellow and there is a trail of blood through the snow leading to the door. Smoke rises from the cabin’s chimney to surround the title. On either side of the smoke are illustrations in the style of Karelian embroidery, showing stylized geometric patterns in red thread. On the left side embroidery section, there is a depiction of a woman kneeling. her hands are stained red and she wears a headscarf. Opposite her is a woman standing. Instead of a left arm she has a wing. Over the top of the image, two geese shaded in red fly over the cabin and smoke. The trees all around the cabin are shaded in dark blue.

Imagine your children crying through the night out of fear at the sound of falling bombs. Sama'a, her husband Bahaa, and their two girls have endured things most of us can hardly imagine. Please give what you can to help ease their burden even a little.

For those that can't escape Photoshop, (such as myself RIP) request an agent to speak with on their virtual assistant to switch your plan not listed on the site. I requested to REMOVE generative AI "features" or extra apps -- it took me about an hour, but my plan went from 22.99 to 15.99 a month.

The cover of Vixen: NYC, drawn by Vasco Georgiev, showing a young Black woman in a cropped orange cardigan and high waisted blue panets with her hair half down and straightened, and half in braids. SHe is surrounded by ghostly glowing animal spirits, incliding a racoon, tiger, dog, eagle, an monkey on her shoulder, and a snake wrapped around her like a friend. She is gazing around a night-time New York City street in wonder.
