When I talk to comic book artists I always emphasize the importance of clearly separating their planes of depth. This rule is only for comics and does not apply to Turkish photographer Sami Uçan.

I was not gay or trans but I had difficult parents. If you think these parents' "rights" laws only affect one group of children or another, you're so wrong. These laws attack the autonomy of all children. This is everybody's fight.
I respect the fact that right now it is LGBTQ+ kids who are in the most immediate danger. But they need support from all of us.

Thanks to the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling this May, the EPA was forced to remove protections from most of America's wetlands this week.

Harlan Crow's firm lobbied for the rollback while he secretly plied Justice Thomas with gifts.

Anyone see a problem here?

Today I’m pleased to reveal the updates that I’ve been working on throughout the Summer in preparation for the release of iOS 17 in a few weeks time! 🚀

Clearly this is what the Shapiros and Rowlings of the world and their associated lampreys mean by “go woke, go broke”.

It ain't the flu, folks: flu test positivity is currently at 0.87% but COVID test positivity is currently at 13.4%. If you have symptoms of a respiratory infection, kindly test yourself for COVID and wear a mask at least until the symptoms resolve. Please and thank you.

About 250M years ago, 90% of species on Earth died during the Permian extinction.

Tragic? Perhaps. But it also created a lot of vacant niches to fill.

And not long after, the very first mammals, our ancestors, appeared.

This video camera study showed that less than 5% of people on bikes break traffic laws while riding, yet 66% of people do so when driving. And if you REALLY want even MORE bike-riders to obey laws, build more protected bike infrastructure. Via @CarltonReid

How many times have you had COVID (that you know of)?

Several schools in Arkansas are defiantly teaching AP African American history. The state has warned them that the students will earn no credits.
