I'm on to the second page now, but here is the first page of a little comic I'm doing. Going to neaten up and change a few things in Photoshop, but I'm pretty pleased. #comic #art #watercolour #comics #watercolor #mastoart

@maj @r9@sunbeam.city Just like I haven’t been aware for quite some time that if I put up with the minor inconveniences of looking up my dinner recipes and comic blogs through #TorBrowser (the pages needing to load a second longer than usual), my privileged everyday nonsense helps camouflaging those vulnerable and at risk folks dependent on using Tor (like e.g. democratic dissidents in repressive regimes).

Mit diesen unverantwortlichen, lamentierenden, weißen alten Filmkomponisten will ich ab heute nichts mehr zu tun haben!
The results of the final vote: 348 in favor, 274 against. No amendments were considered. #Article13 #SaveYourInternet
