Dear Fediverse,

we have a request:
we are looking for the 2008 comic about the Chrome browser by Scott McCloud.

If you have a high-res copy or the paper version, please get in touch! (We are planning an update 😉 )

Boosts welcome!

If someone is doing the difficult work of
- realizing that they fucked up
- not falling into a pity-party or self-flagellation
- leaning how they fucked
- apologizing sincerely
- changing behavior

probably the most likely things to block that process and start a panicked fight/flight response (get defensive / mock / ignore / block) instead
would be:
- gathering a large crowd
- demanding an immediate response
- making 'you fucked up' into 'you ARE worthless'

Hey, so it's not too difficult to find games, movies, comics, etc that specifically depict powerful female protagonists and/or trans women because these works tend to specifically be labeled as such.

I have a friend, who is a trans man, that's trying to find works that depict inspiring male role models. He's trying to find works to better help him understand positive masculinity. Does anyone have any ideas?

We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become. - Ursula K. Le Guin

CBS exec: We love your script!

Me: Oh you

Exec: We will give you $ Million to write Star Trek!

Me: Double that and add a pizza! I want to eat every day like it's a conference and the organizers aren't watching the food table very closely!

Exec: And people will also read the things you write! Because they will care

Me: Why did I go into academia?

My bf: You were talking in your sleep about conference food

A thing to understand about those that oppose ‘non-violence’ is that it isn’t an opposition to acts that do not involve ‘violence’. The opposition is against activism that rules out ‘violence’.

And one of the reasons (besides things like 'we have every right to fight back’ and ‘nonviolence is an ideology that holds us down and protects the state’) that we oppose ‘non-violence’ is because that ‘violent’ is a term that can be warped to mean anything you want.

#berlin if you have the time, please visit the exhibition of art from and for russian antifascists at Living Gallery, Kollwitzstr. 53, near Senefelder Platz. it's only open today til 22:00, and tomorrow 14:00–22:00!

Just came home from a mourning ceremony for Jutta Harms, who died shortly before Christmas.

#Comics people know her well, though most of you may not. At least in Germany, the recent, growing acceptance of comics as an art form as well as as a platform for feminist discourse is unthinkable without Jutta laying the groundwork since the early 90‘s, tirelessly translating, curating, shepherding artists and connecting the dots of local comic scenes dispersed all over Europe.
