I put @tomgauld's brilliant new comic for @newscientist alongside Ibn Al-Rabin's masterpiece “Le Verbe Prophétique” as demonstrating the ways you can do things in comics seemingly simple yet bewilderingly complex that can only be done in comics.

Cracked open this manga I found at the Tezuka Museum about the “untold story about how Tezuka created Blackjack, and it’s incredible. Full of stories from his former assistants and peers, about how he was sometimes kind and other times demanding and difficult to work with.
First post, because why not. Shameless plug: If everyone bought one right now for themselves, and one for a friend, this book, Algorithms of Oppression, could have a chance at improving the internet for women and people marginalized by tech...and I hope you will buy it from Eso Won Books, a Black-owned Los Angeles independent bookstore we’ve treasured so dearly: https://www.esowonbookstore.com/

TDoR SF - Transgender Day of Remembrance, San Francisco

When crimes against historically (and presently) disadvantaged or stigmatized minority groups like #LGBTQ people are written up as "just too many guns" we miss the part about too much bigotry, heterosexism, transphobia, homophobia, and structural violence, and our need to act on those too. Also the guns but not only the guns. #ColoradoSprings #GunControl #StructuralViolence

"מיר וועלן זיי איבערלעבן!"
"We will outlive them!"

One of my favorite mother-tongue (#Yiddish) sayings, comes to mind ^

We are stronger than hate. It's hard now, it looks dark - but we, our #Queer community, is stronger than any hate.

Let their memory be a revolution.
יהי זכרם מהפכה.

Wow! Don't underestimate how wonderful you are.

Mourn the dead.
Fight like hell for the living.

He has all the hallmarks of a right-wing extremist: white, male, and a history of violence that targets a woman or women.

This is what we fear the most when right-wing extremists show up. This is why we fight them. If they don’t experience a pushback—HARD—and consequences for their actions, they will push the limits of violence as far as they can.
