LYNDA BARRY IS MAGIC

*emerges from under a pile of books I should have read ages ago* If EVER there was a time we needed to get the adaptation of "A Confederacy of Dunces" out of development hell, it was 2014. But now would also be good.

Does anyone even know which Simpsons episode "Is a book character having difficulties?" comes from, or do we all just know it from of that Tumblr post because no one actually watches the Simpsons any more?

@realstevepence @jrome58 And the most successful comic creator in the world is also a woman, and one of her most famous/successful series is nothing but gender fuckery.

@nataliereed84 Too many lesbians forget about Betty Friedan's "Lavender Menace" 💅☕

@qmalecanonproj @CatStaggs @TulsiGabbard "…Toleration is spoken of as if it were the indulgence of one class of people that another enjoyed…their inherent natural rights" —literally George Washington. A goddamn slaveowner knew the difference.
