Hey nerds,

Are you a fan of animation? Are you an artist that works in the animation industry (or at least wants to… one of these days)? Do you just enjoy silly cartoons? Or maybe you don’t care about cartoons, but you believe strongly in workers rights and fair wages!

Well the people who make your favorite cartoons, anime, and animated shows and movies are fighting for the future of this industry. We are facing a lot of challenges right now job creep, low wages, the ever looming threat of artists being replaced by AI to create worse animation for the sake of generating content to make lots of money for very rich people while real human artists live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to pay rent and feed their families…

But you can help! By signing this petition to show your support for animation workers in the US

New zine that's free for anyone to print and distribute! Read the whole thing at newlevant.com/COVIDzine or in the rest of this post.

UPDATE 4/11/2023:

I swapped out the colloidal silver nasal spray info for xylitol nasal spray info. I originally included colloidal silver spray because of the linked study and recommendation from RTHM, but I don't want to be pointing people toward something with notable health risks. Xylitol spray (Xlear) is also cheaper and more widely available!

This is such a concise and informative resource! PLEASE boost this and keep each other safe! The pandemic is NOT OVER.

By the way, someone has uploaded a recording of the live fandub of Sonic and the Black Knight panel that we did at Sonic Expo! Unfortunately I'm the only Snapcube crew member who could make it this year, but that didn't stop it from being really fun!

Cast list:

Jehtt as Sonic

UltimaShadowX as Caliburn

Myself as Shadow, Knuckles, and King Arthur

Hannah Chapin aka HannahVA as Tails, Blaze, and Dark Merlina

Izzy aka Izziibel as Amy and Merlina

Anyway this is why I keep saying that people refuse to be normal about the idea of mixed race people and interracial relationships and communities happening and creating children.

I am black and black only until it is convenient to call me white. And it doesn't matter that I'm also native because I'm too black to be native anyway. I've talked about being multi-racial and having even further racial mixing in my extended family since I made this blog in 2014 but that doesn't matter if any of my racial mix can be used as a weapon against me.

Y'all complain about the stereotype of the tragic mulatto without understanding why that stereotype exists in the first place.

I think it was Hafu (Japanese documentary about its mixed race population) but I always liked a quote from this Japanese/Korean guy in which he says he is not half but both.

I'm not part anything. I am all three. I am not half (a third). I am both (all of them). There is no such thing as half a person. I am not only partially allowed to acknowledge my people.

All of them are my people.

Followers helped me find this quote 🩷

ID: "I am not 'half Japanese' and 'half Lithuanian Jewish." When I'm singing a Japanese folk song, I don't sing with half my voice, but with my whole voice. When I'm taping together my grandparents' Jewish marriage contract, worn by time but still resilient, it's not half of my heart that is moved, but my whole heart.

I am complete, and I embody layers of identities that belong together. I am made of layers, not fractions."

Hey, the ACLU is getting people to send letters to your Reps to have Congress pass the No Kings Act.

This act would make constitutional amendments to ensure that even sitting presidents are held liable for their actions. That NOBODY is above the law.

Their goal is 150k messages sent and at the time of writing this they're about 2.1k off from that goal!

ACLU gives you a prefilled message that you can edit to send to make the process easier, and will send it out for you.

This only takes a few minutes!
