Between a terrible game industry market, bad economy & health issues I could really use support from people to keep creating art, so I've created a patreon about the giant illustration I started last year.
Support me & vote on how the illustration grows!

THREAD. Every year, I tell the story of Ezell Gilbert. It's the story of one of the most remarkable cases in U.S. history, and you’ve probably never heard of it. The story of what the U.S. government did to him is vital for understanding the current moment we are in.

One of the last truly wild places on Earth, sacred to the Gwich’in Nation. Irreplaceable.
Now, the entire coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, 1.5 million acres, has been opened up for oil and gas leasing.

🟠 BREAKING: Greta Thunberg says she is being subjected to harsh treatment in Israeli custody after her detention from the Gaza aid flotilla, according to correspondence from Sweden’s foreign ministry seen by the Guardian.
Thunberg told embassy staff she is held in a cell “infested with bedbugs,” with too little food and water, and has developed rashes. She reported “sitting for long periods on hard surfaces.”
Another detainee said Israeli forces photographed her while “forced to hold flags.” The flotilla’s Italian legal team confirmed activists were left “for hours without food or water – until late last night,” with the exception of “a packet of crisps handed to Greta and shown to the cameras.” Lawyers also reported cases of verbal and physical abuse.
Freed Turkish activists described even harsher treatment: journalist Ersin Çelik said “the Israelis tormented Greta Thunberg, dragged her on the ground, and made her kiss the Israeli flag.” Ayçin Kantoglu said women were kept in a dog shelter, denied food for three days, forced to drink toilet water, and that Greta was “beaten, an Israeli flag was tied to her back, and she was walked across the room with her hands tied behind her back.”

scientists: agriculture will soon be at high risk moving rapidly towards very high risk; food production is becoming difficult/impossible; mass death seems very likely; all major types of yield will decline in most places; food availability will shrink globally maybe to near zero

Palestinian man walks calmly in Hebron with his arms raised. The Israeli soldiers shoots him in the back.
This happens all the time for a simple reason: The impunity the US & Europe provide Israel not only enables this, it encourages the steady increase of Israeli war crimes.

THREAD. I was asked to give a TED-style talk about civil rights work. It was a good opportunity for me to address how the acceptance, normalization, and even celebration of certain lies by elite liberal institutions lays the groundwork for authoritarianism:

[Spoiler alert] @Dantinou made those painstakingly put together fantastic full maps of the Batbarian dungeon! Uploaded here at a fraction of the size to give an idea of how big the 400+ rooms dungeon is :D
Complete shot in the dark, but I still adore your art @vacuumbooks and cherish the posters and little book you gave at that convention many years ago.

"We all do better when fewer Americans feel so helpless and insecure that they’re drawn to reprehensible bullies who parade across the public stage as if possessing admirable qualities."
