Another teaser spread of Gabriel Carter's "Druid" - this chapter was a favorite of mine and bringing this scene to life was exciting. #sequentialart #alopeciaareata #comicillustration
A teaser spread of “Druid”, the graphic novel project I’m working on with author Gabriel Carter. It follows Jupiter, a young character coming to terms with alopecia and finding self-acceptance through traveling the memories of an ancestor's rebirth. #lyricalpoetry #sequentialart #alopeciaareata
After printing them as a greeting card with @jessjesspress.bsky.social, I’m excited to post this little pair on here. Might make one or two of these frames into stickers at some point.

What happens when the federal office in charge of funding renewable energy research is told it can’t use terms like “climate change,” “decarbonization” and “clean energy”? It makes it a lot harder for researchers to do their job.

Thank you 😂
New illustration on Russel Vought, the self-proclaimed Christian Nationalist behind much of Project 2025, and now the Cabinet member currently in charge of slashing funding and workers from any federal agency he and the president don’t like.

I spoke with former USAID employees who were working on the development of a “miracle drug” that could’ve turned the tide on the AIDS epidemic.TLDR; people will die.
Actually, a correction: People ARE dying.
THIS! Everyone can learn to draw. If you only knew how much I struggle with fine motor control and coordination and yet here I am, drawing.
Drawing, writing, all creative pursuits are SKILLS you can very much learn to do.
At this point anyone who uses genAI is either hateful or lazy or both.

In the ’80s, the American public had a much more rudimentary understanding of colonialism’s dependence on racism than it does today. But even kids in high school knew that apartheid was wrong, and famine was wrong, and that these two things happening in Africa were somehow connected, and connected to America’s dark racial history, and to the music we listened to and the future we hoped we represented. Our parents didn’t have childhood friendships across races and sexes—that would have been mostly impossible. But we did. We were naive (the white kids far more than the Black kids, it must be said) but not wrong in feeling that, even as we eye-rolled and camped it up when we sang along, that we are the children…we’re saving our own lives / It’s true we’ll make a better day, just you and me.
Mother Jones' editor-in-chief @clarajeffery.bsky.social evokes history to contextualize why USAID was first on the chopping block and the significance of widespread protests today.
"If you think mass protests can’t combat evil, remember what we did in the 1980s."
This is my favorite bit:
🤬🤬 Some jerk ran over this Ghost Rivers sign at @wymanparkdell ... yes, a car drove *through* the park and destroyed the sign!
Help replace it by donating to Friends of Wyman Park Dell’s GoFundMe.

On the Santa Fe Trail we meet the Kaw of the First Nation Peoples. Schoonmaker had her book read and vetted by members of the Kaw Nation. It was important in being truthful to history.

We have reached new levels of madness when an unelected, non senate-confirmed private citizen is overseeing an effort to overhaul or possibly end a congresionally mandated arm of our government.
This is real trouble for the separation of powers, and with it, our basic democratic institutions.
