Yo creative nerds and everyone looking for alternatives to #Adobe: the #Affinity folks are offering a 6-month free trial for all three of their apps (Photo, Designer, Publisher) on all relevant, supported platforms.

Sounds like they’ve never done that before.

Looking forward to this next week. I'm gonna be reading a brand new, very angry comic. You all will be my first audience.

Cartoonists will be selling merch at the event to fundraise for the Gaza Scholarship Fund for Displaced Students. Co-sponsored by Jewish Currents magazine and Cartoonists for Palestine.

Bit of UBI goodness. The only reason it's not implemented is because if people weren't stuck in underpaid jobs where corporations don't pay a living wage and welfare is used then they might ask questions.

And last time _that_ happened was the summer of 2020 which is why they've been desperate to "return to normal".
