Idrisah: Well… In my opinion, you should… She glances back at Cheevwut. Idrisah: (ASL) Also quit. Especially after that shit with Mel. Talita: (ASL) Maybe… Not now, soon after you, Gillie, AND Cal. Management is angry, I think. Ohwitiil walks past the cubicle. Ohwitiil: IDRISAH! Keep packing, I’ve got someone who needs your desk tomorrow! Maybe this one will actually stick around! Talita and Idrisah exchange a look of knowing exhaustion.

Talita: I’ll stop distracting you. Idrisah: Seeya later… Talita waves goodbye to Idrisah and exits the recycling plant, looking absentmindedly at her tablet while walking through the personal exit into the Shikaviil Port dome. An odd echo to her footsteps makes her look up in confusion. She glances around, trying to parse the sound.

Walking past the edge of the sound wall, Talita sees the source of the noise. Far across the dome, near the apartments, a group of centaurs walk on the circular road. There appear to be five adults, four smaller and one larger, as well as four children half their height. All of them have half-lidded eyes and implacable expressions. The four smaller adults are dressed in loose belted leather overpants on their rear four legs, with fabric undershirts that are neatly tucked into their waistbands to leave their upper torsos bare. They wear decorative fabric collars and necklaces adorned with dangling beads, strings, tufts of feathers, and pleating. In their manes they have tucked ornamental combs made from metal, bone, feathers, and beads. Three of them appear to be light in color with thin dark stripes and dark irises, and one is darker with broad stripes and light irises. All have a bar piercing through the upper portion of their trunks, and the oldest of the lighter individuals has two bars. They speak amongst themselves. The four children wear identical dark capelets with tassels that appear to be furred tails. Three are light in color, one is darker. They look around with wider eyes, and one curls their trunk up. They stand close to the small adults, who put reassuring hands on them. The largest adult stands in front of the group, speaking to an enthusiastically smiling Mel and politely smiling Tod. They are finely dressed in a tasseled skirt that covers their lower body and overpants, with a collared cape featuring long hanging panels with embroidery and a tasseled scallop pattern, with a brooch of a carved animal's head at their throat. A chatelaine with a six-legged turtle-like creature hangs from their belt. They are white with black stripes and dark facial markings that extend to the tip of their trunk, which has two bar piercings. The right side of their face is an eyeless crater of scar tissue, with bone missing from the crown of their head to nearly their nostril, an injury that on a human would have been instantly fatal. The large centaur turns their single dark eye and makes eye contact across the distance with Talita, who stares back in dumbfounded horror.

Twitter post which reads: Apple has landed the rights to turn ‘MISTBORN’ into a film franchise & ‘THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE’ into a TV series. Brandon Sanderson will write, produce and consult on all projects. (Source: hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…) Underneath are several book covers from the Mistborn series

Brandon Sanderson is a Mormon and he has admitted that he pays at least a 10% tithe one ALL of his income.
The Mormon Church (Church of Latter-Day Saints, or LDS) is a huge proponent of Project 2025, and routinely lobbies against children’s, LGBT+, and Women’s rights. 1/2

I vividly remember a talk we hosted at Orbital where someone asked (pleaded with) Trina Robbins, “But wasn’t there something clever and subversive about the problematic stuff in Crumb’s work?”

Robbins replied with a simple and unequivocal “No.”

Lawmakers to consider 19 bills for childproofing the internet KOSA is back, along with more than a dozen other bills that will erode free speech and privacy in the name of protecting kids.

Congress is attempting to fast track KOSA and more than a dozen bills that would restrict internet access, censor speech and increase surveillance under the guise of protecting children.

Committee hearings begin tomorrow.

While I'm glad it got removed, it doesn't make Amazon chill now. They only removed it because of the backlash, not because they suddenly developed a conscience. It pisses me off thinking about how much environmental damage generating 12 hours of AI voices must have done just to delete it all anyway.

"Body Hair Blues by Tess Thompson, published July 28, 2020 on ohjoysextoy.com/body-hair-blues-tess-thompson Tess Thompson's art looks like it's painted with thick, bright acrylic paint. Her art is cartoony, somewhat angular, and always energetic. Tess speaks in a teal-colored word balloon, while others have their own colors. "Ever since I was a kid, I've always had so much hair." Tess stands in front of a mirror wearing only her underwear and holding a razor. She has light-orange skin with an assortment of tattoos across her body. Her dark hair is just short of shoulder-length, and it turns into a bright teal color about half-way down. She has extra tufts of short, black hair on her arms and legs, with individual hair sprouting up on her face, and her eyebrows connect in the middle to form a majestic unibrow. "Being mixed Latina and with polycystic ovarian syndrome made me, like... A one woman wig factory! This includes:" An illustration depicts each item on her list. "Toes, feet, knuckles, nipples, AND excessive pubic hair." Brandishing her razor plugged full of thick hair, she continues, "Eventually I got so SICK of shaving all of that! It was WAY too much." "So one day, I decided to stop bothering with it entirely..." She says, throwing the razor into the trash with a THWACK! "I wanted to force myself to accept my body hair."

Now sporting a tank top, she holds her arms wide, exclaiming, "AND BOY DID PEOPLE NOT LIKE THAT!" In a green panel: "It's your body, and you can do whatever you want, but it's not beautiful." Tess's ex-girlfriend confides in her. Tess furrows her brow, replying "..." In a gray-maroon panel: "You're so beautiful, Tess!" Tess's mom marvels at her. "Awww." Smiles, Tess. "If only you didn't have a unibrow!" Her mother quickly follows up. "MOM!" Tess exclaims in exasperation. In a tan panel: "You can shape my brows, but I really don't want my unibrow touched, please." Tess explains to a person holding scissors while she sits in a chair. "Well... okay." the standing woman replies. "As long as I don't have to wear that thing! Haha." In a black panel Tess looks not quite at the audience with her eyes round in disbelief as she thinks to herself, "Did God give you that mouth?"

Narration: It gets really bad sometimes... Tess stands on the sidewalk, typing away on her phone while a stranger walks back, looking over their shoulder at her. Narration: It sucks when strangers sneer and double-take. The stranger cartoonishly distorts so their neck extends long enough to loop back over their shoulder to stare, bug-eyed, at Tess's hairy legs. Addressing the audience, Tess declares, "Even when I was a kid! I just wanted people to-" A flashback takes us to a younger Tess sitting in a hallway with a row of other young people who are all staring at her legs. She throws her arms in the air and kicks one leg up dramatically, shouting, "STOP STARING!" Present-day Tess stands, facing the reader. She closes her eyes and presses the palms of her hands together, attempting to remain calm as she says, "It can be really alienating and frustrating. But you know what? It's worth it." Looking mischievous, she leans in more closely to the reader to say, "Because the unity that body hair brings... Is far more valuable to me!"

"Your unibrow is cuuuuute." Tess's current girlfriend coos, teasingly squishing herself against Tess from behind. Her girlfriend has short dark green hair, a black t-shirt, and an earring of a silver cross. Her skin is a lighter peach color from Tess's. "Aww!" Tess teases flirtily back. Later on in a store at the checkout, the person working the register throws their arms in the air exclaiming, "HEY! You're like me! You're a furry girl!" "Whw-hw?" Gulps Tess, startled. "Your arm hair?" The cashier asks, holding her own hairy forearm up. "We're furry!" Tess looks at her own hairy forearm in surprise and then with happy conviction she exclaims back, "We're furry!!" Outside a couple from the other side of the street stop so one person can shout out, "HEY! Are you mixed Puerto Rican?" From Tess's side of the street, she startles, asking, "LITERALLY how did you...?" "We are too!" The stranger calls. "It's the arm hair!" "Huh!" Tess marvels, looking at her forearm. "Weird!!" Narration: Sometimes... Tess continues walking confidently, admiring her hairy arms and legs. Narration: That kind of weird and unexpected connection is just what I need.

No splitting hairs about it: being a Puerto Rican with PCOS is a hairy experience for @tessquibbs.bsky.social. Society's deep-rooted shaming of being a furry girl but she still manages to come out ahead in this comic from our archive! 1/2

Hi, I'm Cressa and I do stop motion. You may have seen my preshows at your local movie theatre.

Here's a cute thing I made for the release of Godzilla Minus One:

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress.

Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights.

But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

I still think about these panels from Shadow Cabinet 3 and 4 on a daily basis 🙌

25 Years Ago yesterday, the animated series STATIC SHOCK hit the airwaves, introducing the Milestone Comics hero to the world.

When I wrote THE SHADOW CABINET, one of the moments I knew had to be in the book was to have the comic book version say the line the animated version became known for.

Of course they ban a trans woman and cancel her series for saying what everyone is saying. That a horrible man has died of gunfire when he actively tried to harm other people every day. He said that gun deaths in exchange for the preservation of Second Amendment rights is part of America's reality.

The people wondering "how could anyone who isn't a professional escape after a high profile daylight assassination" are forgetting two things:

1. Cops are bad at their jobs

2. The FBI used to be somewhat better at their jobs and were recently gutted by political layoffs

no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace

They're actively targeting creators who call in & banning them, making it even more important to call if you're a customer & not a creator

Tell them they shouldn't be dictating how you get to spend the money you put your blood, sweat, and tears into earning

no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s death. don’t say rudy giuliani died from driving his car into a wall painted to look like a tunnel and all his clothes flew off in the crash and then a sixteen wheeler semi truck ran over his dick and balls. don’t say stuff like that

REMINDER: in this moment, the thing you want your Congressperson to do is (1) demand resignations and (2) threaten endless hearings. Impeachment isn't going to work. Read the article if you don't want to take my word for it - Larry is the most respected health law expert in America.
