Glad that Australia will have a poet laureate! Let’s also note that Vermont, one single US state has a three-year term CARTOONIST LAUREATE!

White supremacists have a centuries-long record of recalibrating who is and isn’t considered “American” based on what’s necessary to clutch onto power. (panel from my in-progress adaptation of LIES MY TEACHER TOLD ME)

Parenting is cool because: -it’s the hardest thing you’ve ever done -the stakes are the highest they’ve ever been -no one can tell you how to do it -you have to make a million choices every day -there’s no way to ever know if any of them were correct -socks just constantly vanish

Today is National Corrections Day, and the ACT Gov is celebrating by lighting up national monuments in blue. Today is also the day that we have failed to meet our obligations under the UN's Optional Protocol to the Convention Against Torture and the Gov is silent. Irony?

I’m a female cartoonist in a movie, except no I’m not because those don’t exist.

I’m an author in a movie. After settling at my immaculate desk I stare into the middle distance for a moment before beginning to type. I don’t stop until I have an impressive stack of printed pages next to me. I don’t check Twitter or Instagram and I am always dressed.
