Y'all don't understand. The single most validating thing that can happen to Bridget right now is if Johnny hits on her and doesn't make it weird

Finally got done with this bit of my Super Sons animation ✌️ based on Superman #10 by Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason

Superman and supergirl are like coral/king snakes.

Steph likes give everyone fair warning.

Remember when this was literally all we had for My Adventures with Superman for like a whole year and a half? And now we're on our way to season 3 and I'm so ready

Help a Gazan Journalist Rebuild His Home!

Siraj Abudayeh @siraj2024 is a father of three who has been fundraising to rebuild his family home for the past month. Here he is introducing himself in his own words:

My name is Siraj. I am 34 years old. I used to work as a journalist before the war, and now I am without a job due to the bombing of the company in which I was working. Before that, I worked as a sports coach, and my interests are swimming and fitness. I studied a bachelor’s degree in journalism and media and finished my master’s degree a year ago. I was seeking to obtain a doctorate, but after… The war situation will not allow anything

Transformed by the war into a new kind of journalist, he makes a difficult journey to find stable WiFi every day, just to log onto this website to provide updates on his life in southern Gaza and ask for help rebuilding his family home, which he went into debt to build over the course of ten years, and which he misses like it was a family member. Recently, he has started writing about the emotional toll of living in a genocide.

Today, he has shared with me a short piece about the passage of time. Here it is in Arabic and English (with minor edits by me).

مر زمان طويل على عائلة سراج وهم في الخيام
ذهب الحر وجاء البرد وانقضى ، وعاد الحر من جديد
الأجِنة وُلِدت، و الرضع غدوا أطفالًا، و الأطفال كبروا
الأغصان الجافة أورقت، و العام الدراسي إنتهى
التجاعيد برزت وخطوط الشيب غدت أوضح، و الغائبون في ازدياد
لقد جاء أغسطس، و لم تنته الحرب
مر زمن طويل، ولا زال الأمل يتجدد في قلوبهم بأن يبنوا بيتهم ويخرجوا من هذه الخيام البائسة.
ساعدوهم في بناء منزلهم، من خلال الدعم والمشاركة، فأنتم أملهم الكبير.

For a long time now, Siraj's family has been in tents
The heat goes, the cold comes and goes, and the heat has come again
Fetuses are born, infants become children, and children have grown up
The dry branches turn green, and the school year is over
Wrinkles appear, gray lines become clearer, and absent people have increased
August has come, and the war is not over
A long time has passed, and hope is still renewed in their hearts to build their home and leave these miserable tents.
Help them build their home. Through support and participation, you are their great hope.

Since the war began, Siraj has been displaced seven times and survived at least two massacres on adjacent camps. His family lives in a dank, hot tent infested with bugs that he has previously called "a convection oven".

Siraj values his privacy. He has not shared any details or photos of his family. But he has shared something much more valuable to us - the truth about the zionist occupation and its genocide. For this he has received zionist harassment on several of his posts as well.

Gaza is running out of eSims, Israel continues to kill journalists in their attempt at epistemicide, and we are seeing growing efforts to redefine Palestinians as bots on this website, so it's crucial that we all listen to Gazans when they make an effort to talk to us.

I encourage you all to follow Siraj's account, keep up with his daily updates, and donate to his fundraiser to rebuild his home. His next short term goal is $30k CAD and he hopes to reach it by the end of this week.
