Not to be too cynical, but this really just does not move me. Why are they covers and not panels, the things that actually communicate story? I'd go so far to say doing this, in this way, is just another form of treating comics as disposable iconography only useful as Branding.
I just checked the decree penalizing Obstruction of Justice (Pres. Decree 1829) and apparently when committed by public officers it carries the penalty of perpetual disqualification from public office…
my hot take is that "fashion is art" is a terrible theme that ironically reveals the artistic paucity of the fashion industry. given a challenge to make garments that argue fashion is its own artistic medium, but everyone just makes recreations of dresses from famous paintings.
The internet slowly becoming more and more negative towards Alysa Liu is unfortunately just another example in a vicious misogynistic cycle. One minute they are the most beloved individual on the internet, the next they get torn down and nitpicked for absolutely no reason.
So... just so we're clear... you want me to be afraid of trans women in the women's bathroom because they might be cis men pretending so they can assault women and children... and you think this reflects on... trans women... and not on cis men?
Do I have this correct?
My abortion is the kind people love to judge the most. I wasn’t underage, I wasn’t assaulted, and there was no medical emergency. I got pregnant because I knowingly had unprotected sex, no accident, no rare failure, just my own choices.
By their standards, it was “irresponsible.” I knew abortion was an option, and I took it. Not because I couldn’t survive it or raise a child, I simply didn’t want one. I wanted sex without becoming a parent, and I chose not to carry the pregnancy.
There’s no redemption arc here. I don’t regret it. Nothing terrible happened to me afterward, no punishment, no downfall. My life is still good. And that reality alone challenges everything people like to assume about women who make this choice.
Evangeline Lilly has called out Disney for being “disgusting and horrible” after they laid off almost all of Marvel's visual development team.
“SHAME ON YOU for turning your back on the people who built the power you are now using to throw them away.”
My boyfriend works at a shop where 90% of the staff are women. And you just KNOW some customers march in demanding to "speak to a man."
So, the female worker calls my boyfriend from the storage. These women have to wait, like, ten minutes because he's usually busy. He finally comes out and the conversation pretty much always goes down like this:
"What can I help you with?"
"Oh, I need this specific plumbing part for this super specific project."
Boyfriend: "No clue, ask her."
Mi ex me transmitió el virus del papiloma humano. La ginecóloga me dijo que cómo podía ser tan ingenua de tomar sólo la píldora y no usar preservativo...
PUES PORQUE LLEVÁBAMOS JUNTOS 8 AÑOS Y "POR LO QUE SEA" ME FIABA DE ÉL.
Se lía con otra, me pega el VPH, pero la culpa es MÍA.
they killed alyssa. the AFP that massacres dozens of farmers on negros and labels them “NPA” killed a person i knew, with whom i traded comments on articles in kasarinlan & who always seemed ready to laugh, critique, fight another day. we all love & will miss you so, so dearly.
and then filipinos continue to ask why we cant escape from corruption?? these kinds of people are disgusting. walang respeto sa patay, walang mahal sa bayan, pilipino ka ba talaga? nakakahiya. shame on those who are mocking her death. justice for alyssa alano.
