When something horrible, but wacky, happens with #JDVance or #Project2025 people often say "The jokes write themselves."

But nobody says "The editorial cartoons draw themselves!"
It takes time & talent to make good cartoons.

So today I upgraded my monthly subscription to @jensorensen because she turns the horrible, bizarre & wacky news into funny, insightful cartoons.

Plus, as a Patreon subscriber, you get to read about her fascinating thinking & creative process🖖

Latest comic - Just a few of the horrors of Project 2025

#cartoon #uspol #USPolitics #election #lgbtq

Project 1025 1. REMEMBER THIS GUY, THE ARCHITECT OF PROJECT 2025? "THE SECOND AMERICAN REVOLUTION... WILL REMAIN BLOODLESS IF THE LEFT ALLOWS IT TO BE." JD VANCE WROTE THE FOREWORD TO HIS NEW BOOK 2. SO, WHAT IS THIS "SECOND REVOLUTION," ANYWAY? FOR STARTERS, PROJECT 2025 WOULD DELETE THESE TERMS FROM EVERY FEDERAL RULE, LAW, GRANT, AND CONTRACT. "abortion" "reproductive rights" "reproductive health" "gender" "sexual orientation and gender identity" FORBIDDEN 3. IT WOULD "UNWIND" CLIMATE INITIATIVES, END STUDENT LOAN FORGIVENESS PROGRAMS, ABOLISH THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, AND LEGALIZE CHILD LABOR. CEO OF MEATPACKING COMPANY WITH CHILD WORKER - A CHILD'S PLACE IS AT THE MEAT GRINDER. 4. SO THIS IS NOT A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE, BUT A TRIP TO THE DISTANT PAST. COME 2025, DO YOU WANT TO WAKE UP BEING RULED BY PEOPLE FROM 1025? © 2024 Jen Sorensen

Hi Jen People actually had rights under #feudalism

Although a good point on putting 1025 as England had a heavily slave dependent economy at the time

Steam purchases now clearly state you're just getting a license not ownership

Doing the rounds across the net right now is a small update to the Steam checkout process when you're making a purchase, to make it clear you don't own what you buy.

I remember one director, really cool and fun person. She would run back and forth on the backs of the audience seats and would often forget to speak in English (she also directed for El Teatro Campesino in San Juan Bautista - think of the tower in the movie Vertigo.)
