I need to reiterate for some people who are new here (I know that those who know, know) that First Second has been doing adult graphic novels—yes including fiction—since 2006. So our love and service to adult GN isn’t new, we now just have bigger guns to really show off.

people will put “trans rights are human rights” in their bio and then say without a hint of irony that they won’t even vote to keep Trump out of office “ally” is a verb, and if your ACTION isn’t supporting and defending us you don’t get to call yourself one

You can see quite clearly the effects of 9/11 on the later seasons of Star Trek: Enterprise. It explains so much why that show is the way it is.

Also George Lucas wrote Star Wars because he desperately wanted to make a Flash Gordon movie and he couldn’t get the rights. If you watch the Flash Gordon movie that was eventually made, you can definitely see the influences.

In "Bell Riots," the dystopian vision of 2024 is that sanctuary districts would be designated which legally permit the unhoused to sleep outside or in derelict buildings, where food is provided and there's an office that sets people up with work. Again, this is the dystopian part of the Bell Riots.

I’m not sure what Dirtbag Henry wants, so he’s sharpening his claws on my pants.

Dirtbag Henry thoughtfully found my Kleenex and covered it completely with his butthole. In the second photo he has claimed the Kleenex as his own. (Although he thinks everything is his, really.)

I had a meeting so I quickly got Dirtbag Henry his chicky bits, but he’s hard of smelling and he didn’t notice. So he knocked my cup over and tried to bite my ankles (I had to run). Then I put his face in the food dish and he ate his chicky bits and he’s STILL MAD 🫠

Everyone rightfully excited about the #Elephant "name" news, but the elephant news that really got me this week was over at Sheldrick. Recent orphan Toto was brought to them by PREVIOUSLY RESCUED ELEPHANTS who found him and knew just where to take him. ❤️ www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/toto

🆗new episode!🆗 #TransTuesday

Many cis spouses/partners leave trans people when we come out. Worse, some hold relationships, homes, even children over us, with the threat of losing them if we transition. And we need to talk about it.

Andy Alves and @bencrane.bsky.social join us to discuss!

my lovely wife @susanlbridges.bsky.social and i were on the POPSKL podcast to talk the series finale (and entire series retrospective) of Star Trek Discovery!

Trek is so very near and dear to our hearts, and vital to us, and it was a joy to get to discuss it with these fine folks!

Active shooter training at work was mostly about how there’s nothing much you can do so just don’t scare any cops who might arrive by screaming or crying.

Some notes: “Ew I’m never eating at your house” so you prepare food directly on your kitchen counters or table? Then I’m more of a germaphobe than you are. “Just be consistent” he doesn’t have enough brain cells for that trust me

Sometimes I see a video with a cat on a counter or table, and the comments are all, “you have a badly trained cat.” If you’ve had cats for many years, eventually you will have one who is untrainable. Dirtbag Henry is that cat.
