I’m going to do some commissions for a limited time. I need to raise about $150 so I can reserve my hotel room for SPX. I’m trying really hard not to let my cartooning and related practices affect our family bank account too much.

DO NOT GO TO DR. PAUL DUCHASTEL AT DUFFERIN MEDICAL CENTRE

An Open Letter From Assata →
My name is Assata Shakur, and I am a 20th century escaped slave. Because of government persecution, I was left with no other choice than to flee from the political repression, racism and violence that dominate the US government’s policy towards people of color. I am an ex-political prisoner, and I have been living in exile in Cuba since 1984.

[Trigger warning: gender violence, transphobia, transphobic reporting]
Cemia was found dead in Cleveland yesterday, stabbed repeatedly, tied to a block of concrete, and thrown in a lake after going missing last month.
