Sneak peek from the graphic novel I’ve been working on since some people have been wondering why I stopped posting. It’s a page I drew to pitch the idea that emotional scenes will have a more rough and raw style. It’s still quite a bit away but I already wanted to share the reason I’ve been missing!

Preview pages of a comic book. The adhd alien character is reaching out to a pencil that is perspectively really far away, while a mosquito is holding her back. The next panel shows her struggling to reach the pencil even more. The text reads: It was like something was holding me back from starting. And the more I resisted, the more frustrated I got. She frustratedly says: “Come onin, you promised them you’d draw!” The next page shows the character entirely surrounded by mosquitos, being fully frustrated and emotional. “Why can’t you just draw!” And the last panel shows the character having given up trying to reach the pencil, sulking and crying at her desk. The text reads: In the end, my emotions took over. And I became too frustrated to draw anything at all. image

A few people had questions of some of the states on my map such as NY/CA/IL moving up in risk for trans youth. If a state has moved up in risk, it's because of clinic closures at major clinics. I cannot in good faith keep a state low risk if state laws are not being enforced to keep clinics open.

This is scary as hell, but for news coverage? This is a GIFT. "You can be banned for *buying* Game of Thrones." Send emails to journalists and news sites and communities you're a part of and talk about the dangers here. People are going to care about this a lot more when it's not just creators.

Why people think a MAHA-collaborating epidemiologist is an expert on public health law is beyond me 🙃

Seeing a lot of folks share information about COVID vaccine access that is not accurate. The situation is very fluid — blue states like Massachusetts are likely to update their legal regime to allow the administration of the vaccine, i.e. Colorado has already set that process in motion. A lot of so-called

Heavy Hearts dev Dammitbird received the following notice from Steam, noting “your app has failed our review because we're unable to support the Early Access model of development for a game with mature themes” This strikes me as overcompliance and censorious on Steam’s part

Jesus fucking christ. The Trump administration tried to send a bunch of children to Guatemala at 3 am and justified it by saying that the kids just wanted to return to their parents in Guatemala, but the kids actually told the court that they are afraid of being sent back to Guatemala.

Tweet from Joshua J. Friedman: Plaintiffs: No. Possible some children might be in that situation, but everything we could find on short notice is children not in this situation. Judge: Mr. Ensign you saying that *all* these children have parents who are requesting their return to Guatemala? DOJ: That's what I've been told Tweet from Joshua J. Friedman: Judge: During recess, I read provision you cited and then the complaint. Every one of 10 named plaintiffs says they are *afraid* of being sent back to Guatemala. (Reads aloud from declarations.) Doesn't line up with what govt is saying. This is why we have courts.

Believe it or not, a lot of companies still put huge stock on their BBB rating. Many will respond quickly to comments there; BBB tracks if corps respond to give them a chance to salvage their rating in the case of dispute, so it's an effective way to get them to the negotiation table, at least!

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

It's a lie. Stipulating "explicit" carries the implication that he *does* have some other kind of informal, traditional or implied authority over elections, when he does not. Don't print lies in the newspaper.
