In case anyone needs some more adult comicbook-related things, I've been gradually adding a lot of the covers and titlepage art I created for SEX to the etsy store where I sell my #swearingpattern things: swearingpattern.com

You’re not only closer to homelessness than being a billionaire. You’re closer to homelessness than to buying any home in many major cities. You’re closer to homelessness than being able to ever actually retire. When you see it that way, the crisis is impossible to ignore.

When you criticize your body (it’s shape, size, function) you’re denying how hard it’s fought to survive. Instead of hating your body, hate what it experienced. You must respect it for hosting pain in a world that uses bodies to make money & blames those who don’t adapt well.

I keep seeing people say "the world has moved on from masks"—um, I'm in Japan, *everyone* is masked, indoors and outdoors, and last I checked Japan is, in fact, part of the world

Does anyone else think the unemployment rate is “the lowest it’s ever been” because millions are disabled from COVID and have been taken out of the workforce entirely?

Our award-winning documentary on the pioneers of queer comics debuts on 1/23 & will stream for free for 3 months! This was a long-ass labor of love and I’m so happy to see it land here 😍

Last time a doctor got annoyed at my google list I told her that it costs $50 copay to spend a max of 10 minutes talking to someone who hasn’t glanced at my file before entering the room
Quote Tweet
Doctors: "Don't Google your symptoms."
Doctors: "Never heard of anyone feeling like that ever before. Not a thing. Lose weight."
Google: "Here are 85,000 peer-reviewed studies on exactly what you're experiencing. Here's the treatment protocol."

flatly insane that your doctor can say “you need an mri” and then a little while later your insurance company can be like “lol no you didn’t”

I was almost one of those in the 36% a few years ago. See the thread, and see how disabled people are so easily overlooked...

Replying to @WeldonCaleb and @fietsprofessor
36% of pedestrian deaths by car are wheelchair users. if just “probably including those” with abled pedestrians and not doing any further inclusive design was good enough, do you really think that number would be so high?

Cougar encounters are very rare. These images were captured on private trail cams and offer a delightful glimpse at an elusive creature.

It’s intriguing how most people don’t care about infertility, impotence, lung disease, diabetes, pain, stroke, blood clots, heart attacks, cognitive impairment and death. And quite literally prefer these for both self and others to masking, testing and isolating if positive.

What doesn’t kill you makes you question everything because your nervous system is dysregulated due to traumas impact and people saying stupid shit like “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”

Personally I can’t wait for AI users to experience the downsides of being an artist. Let’s see how they react to requests for free labor, client feedback, and seeing their stuff get ripped off and sold uncredited.

I can’t help but think of the notion of the frictionless society: one where as many human interactions as possible are replaced with screens and apps. Is eradicating the human in service of the futures and business models of tech companies really what’s best for human society?

I’m cropping these for privacy reasons/because I’m not trying to call out any one individual. These are all Lensa portraits where the mangled remains of an artist’s signature is still visible. That’s the remains of the signature of one of the multiple artists it stole from.

Seeing a Lensa portrait where what was clearly once an artist’s signature is visible in the bottom right and people are still trying to argue it isn’t theft.

Then they're like... what's wrong with you. Why are you getting upset and frustrated. You're overreacting! And it's like you are shaming me for something I have no control over and that I struggle with and potentially denying me meds because I have an impairment.

The isolation that comes from healing is not only from a lack of support, but the toxic messages that tell survivors they are at fault for not showing up differently in the world or adapting better. The most authentic, giving, aware people I know are survivors looking for answers

When someone complains about racism and you respond with something about "black on black crime," that's a known racist dogwhistle.
When I complain about antisemitism and you respond with "but mental health," I'm sorry, but that's an antisemitic cover for antisemitism.
Cut it out.

Imagine: You’re in your mid-30s, doing mid-30s things. One day, you get sick. You almost die, & it doesn’t go away. You’re now disabled. Other people report dying & becoming disabled by the same illness, while still others accuse the sick of lying. It’s chaos for a time.

it's honestly concerning the media is ignoring this takeover by a right-wing billionaire with a documented history of bigotry, lying, and cheating is happening amid a GLOBAL shift towards right-wing fascism.

If you're a cis person reading that NYT puberty blockers story ask yourself how many tail-end risks exist with different forms of birth control and whether they justify criminalizing it like people are trying to do with puberty blockers
