Feminist, anti-racist, pro-fat, plus whatever else we feel like talking about.
Another strip drawn by the amazing Mike Lawrence. From an official press release on whitehouse.gov, July 16 2026: Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller made clear there must be no retreat: “One of the hallmarks of left-wing violence and terrorism is Continue reading
This cartoon is by me and Becky Hawkins. Becky and I were working together at a coffee shop, and Becky was talking about the movie The Devil Wears Prada. Or, more specifically, Becky was describing a podcast she’d listened to Continue reading
Wow, did this cartoon take forever to make! So why did it take so long? First of all, history-based cartoons always take more time to research. But the research was really fruitful, because I found quotes that let me arrange Continue reading
This comic was drawn by R.E. Ryan, who did a great job rendering my silly version of Colonial America. In 2023, Senator Josh Hawley posted this quote, attributing it to Founding Father Patrick Henry: It cannot be emphasized too strongly Continue reading
I m always amazipalled (portmanteau between amazed and appalled that I don t expect to catch on) at how willing MAGA is to demolish the US s future prospects and economy. Their own children and grandchildren will be poorer for it, and they Continue reading
Thanks to R. E. Ryan for his wonderful sci-fi art on this one! I originally posted this on Patreon in 2024, but apparently I spaced out on posting it on Alas and Leftycartoons at the time. (Glares in annoyance at Continue reading
It took me a few tries to write this strip. It s the most vexing question of the Trump era, for me: How can so many people support Trump? I ve known a bunch of Trump supporters. Many of them, in face Continue reading
In the wake of the 2024 election, a poll from Blueprint found that a lot of swing voters believed that “Kamala Harris is focused more on cultural issues like transgender issues rather than helping the middle class.” Predictably, many centrist Continue reading
This cartoon is by me and Becky Hawkins. I m not like this character serenely unaware of mean comments. But I aspire to be like him. (Maybe I am like this character, but since I m unaware of the comments I Continue reading
From a report in Fortune: AI is actually increasing strain for most employees, as the tools add more time to menial tasks, and actually takes away from deep-focus work. Since adopting AI into their workflows, time spent across every job Continue reading
This strip is drawn by the awesome Mike Lawrence, who really went wild with the chicken fat! I wrote this strip two months ago, after coming across this story: US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is facing an unusual wave Continue reading
This cartoon is by me and Nadine Scholtes. In a way, it s also by Samantha Fulnecky, because a lot of the dialog was swiped verbatim from a paper she wrote. But I don t think she d appreciate a co-writing credit. Radical Continue reading
When Kamala Harris lost the election, a lot of centrist Democrats blamed progressives (as they did when Hillary Clinton lost in 2016), and it s been a constant drumbeat of recrimination ever since. I m talking about folks like Quentin Fulks, who Continue reading
This comic is by me and Becky Hawkins. Becky writes: What’s a better challenge than drawing a period piece? Drawing a period piece where the reader is supposed to think it’s present-day until panel 4! Luckily for me, men’s fashion Continue reading
The right-wing (plus some alleged liberals cough Singal cough) assault on trans kids is genuinely horrifying. Literally hundreds of anti-trans bills most focused on trans people under 19 years old are proposed every year, and some succeed in Continue reading
