If you care about comics, care about this.

andywarnercomics:

Samandal is a comics magazine based in Beirut, Lebanon, but they publish artists from all over the world. The first comic I ever had published by somebody that wasn’t myself appeared in Samandal #1 back in 2007. They’ve published 15 issues in three different languages, hosted international cartoonists, set up comics events in Beirut and acted as the anchor of a wonderful and thriving comics community in the Middle East. I was a guest editor on issue 11 in 2011 when I lived in Beirut. That experience inspired the founding of my own comics anthology, Irene. Samandal’s editors are amazing people and artists. I’m lucky to call them my friends.

Samandal is in big, big trouble. Three of their editors lost a legal case brought by the Lebanese government that interpreted two out of context panels to be “inciting sectarian strife.” It’s utter bullshit. For a detailed story about the case, there’s a good New Yorker article that covers it.

The editors now face tens of thousands of dollars in fines for completely spurious charges. They’re raising money to try to stay in business. If they don’t raise enough, not only will the magazine be shuttered, but the editors could face jail time for nonpayment of their crippling fines.

Samandal matters. The Institute for Current World Affairs said: 

In the Middle East, Beirut is the vanguard of Arab comix. Samandal’s sixteen issues since 2007 have pushed artists in Egypt, Morocco, and Tunisia to follow suit. As Samandal’s coterie of artists experiment in Arabic, French, and English, the ‘zine has carved out space for scores of Lebanese graphic novels and other interventions across the region. 

The Hooded Utilitarian called Samandal “ground zero for Arab comics.” I love this art form, and wherever there is a group of people in this world making comics together, there is a light. Please, please consider donating to their fundraising campaign, even if this is the first time you’ve heard of Samandal. Don’t let this light go out.

I have now read thousands of comments on Stephanie Meyer’s rereleasing Twilight with the character genders swapped and no one has yet pointed out that we will be able to splice the two books together to get Twilight: The Lesbian Love Triangle

To be honest, if someone spliced the two books together to make it either lesbian or gay, I would actually try reading Twilight.

More D&D things! A comic of a conversation that happened between Maz and another character (and yes, that is a tiny pick axe but hey, we were fighting tiny creatures so I’m using that as an excuse).

I love this so much, I can’t stop looking at it. PS I started playing the DnD and the drow here is mine. :3 That’s Yeunn and he is learning how to make friends~~~

Donald Trump’s ugly son and Mitt Romney’s ugly son should hang out. I’d like to see that Facebook album.

are these not the same person

holy shit, why do they literally look like the caricature you draw of a rich person in a political cartoon. like if i drew them you’d be like “that’s really mean, man”

Do rich white boys not know how to smile? Why do they look like they’re sneering or smelling something bad? Is the sense of entitlement just that deeply engrained?

Looking for help to leave abusive family for good

ellythemaxx:

As of right now, its very clear my folks are never going to change.  Things will continue to be terrible for me here until they finally throw me out.  My mother already threatened to call the police.

Because of this environment I have been unable to finish school, my transition, or find decent employment.  If I don’t get out of here now I won’t ever get to do those things.

I need a place to live ASAP.  I would prefer to stay in California to make it easier to get the help I need for my transition.  I would also prefer a place that can allow me a month or even two if possible to settle in.  Get my medical/pills sorted out, find work, and look into school.  But those are obviously not requirements.  As my other option at the moment is the street.

I am capable of working full-time, though I have found I rarely meet the requirements for many full-time jobs.  And have so far only been able to get part-time work.  I’m willing to work around the house, mostly cleaning/repairs.  I’m afraid I’m not much of a cook.  Unfortunately I am currently without a car, though I do have a bicycle to get around on.

If you, or anyone you know can possibly help with housing please have them contact me ASAP via a message here on tumblr, or via email at Ellythemaxx@gmail.com

If you can’t help with shelter, but would like to donate money to help with the cost of moving, pills, and food, you can send money to my paypal account at the same email Ellythemaxx@gmail.com. 

Again, I’m not sure how much time I have.  It could as much as a month, or as little as until tomorrow morning.  So please let me know if there is anything you can do!

i am out of time

i can’t stay here with these people anymore, i need a place to go

a place where i can settle in, and look for a job without the constant pressure

i don’t want to be a burden on anyone, i just want to live my life, but that’s never going to happen here

i thought i’d have at least until the end of the year, but this will never last that long.  I need to leave soon, if not immediately.

Against my better judgement I trusted my family, my mother, I listened to other’s advice to just bear it, to get what help I can and get out.  But there is no help.  I tried to tell people, there is no unconditional anything here.

I have maybe another month, at best.  Or I will have to face homelessness or death.

I’ll make a more thourough post later, when i’ve calmed down.

but for now, if you’re reading this, i need help.  please help

If you are in the SoCal area please consider helping out a wonderful girl in a shitty situation.

*kicks down door yelling* LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY SAD ENEL HEADCANONS.

(read about it here)

Oh god… I’m having long-dormant Ener feels. 

Here’s a sort-of secret: I used to write a LOT of One Piece fic. And I, too, dabbled in headcanons about why Ener doesn’t have wings.
