I think that's some extreme hyperbole there. I'll take Bagley over Ienco for sure but his art's fine. Not even approaching what I'd consider horrible in this or any era.

The weird thing was for how fun his FF run was his simultaneous Fantastic Four comic kind of sucked.

Though it did have that one awesome moment of Johnny verbally destroying Reed and Sue.

I'm re-reading Inferno on Marvel Unlimited and it's frustrating how poorly the Marvel Unlimited app is for reading event comics. I had a similar problem when trying to re-read Hickman's Avengers/New Avengers on the app. If I had one complaint about the service, it really is how poor the app is.

Inferno itself is....very 80s and also peak X-men nonsense.

Simonson's Thor is long and a complete story with no crossovers and totally available on Marvel Unlimited.

For some events, I think if you look them up in the "events" tab it's easier to read them in order, but they might also have a bunch of stuff you don't want to read (the most recent Secret Wars has every single Battleworld issue in there, which is mostly great comics, but you might not want to read 20 other books between Thors #1 and Thors #2).

I have the Simonson bible already that I turn to on a bi-yearly basis tho reading it through MU is probably easier.

I've used the events tab before but usually they've removed the event before I have a chance to finish it. Was gonna use it for Inferno since I remembered seeing it in events a couple months ago but it wasn't there when I actually wanted to start reading it which was disappointing.

Just need to apply pressure. Kshama Sawant was thought to be an impossible candidate to win in the special election she won, then an impossible candidate to win in the next big election and now she's probably going to have that seat until she either retires or gets beat from the left.

The Tea Party didn't take over the Republicans in a day. Ocasio-Cortez and the like will hopefully throw a little fear in to the establishment Dems, force them to at least pretend to support popular policies, and to stop collaborating with Trump. That'll pull the overton window to the left, and in 2020 we can get Bernie and a Bernie supporting congress in and they'll have two years to ram through as much as they can.

I mean ive already started and theyve already stripped most every one of the very small number of protections for trans people there were so legally it cant get much worse for me than it is i suppose, but theyre gonna ram through the naziest piece of poo poo they can so civil rights in basically every area are gonna get flushed down the toilet

What state do you live in? there's a lot of things that can be done at a more local level to help prevent that poo poo. I live in Oakland and I'm not going to say things aren't going to get worse for trans people here but they definitely won't get as bad as quickly.

Like, it's not even a law, just a thing a bunch of restaurants have done where all the single occupancy bathrooms are gender neutral, since if only one person is in there (or a parent with a child or someone who needs assistance) what does it matter what their gender is?

thankfully we just show down a referendum to enforce bathrooms based on biological sex. but what im concerned about is on a national level, eliminating discrimination protections for trans people, ensuring companies and/or health care providers dont have to have coverage for medically necessary transition stuff and the like

and of course theres stuff like roe v wade almost assuredly going before the court, gerrymandering, the complete elimination of the vra (or whats left of it), the court saying that putting kids in concentraion camps is good and cool, etc

Listen, I'm not going to pretend to know what you're going through right now. When I got the news, I was flush with anxiety and I'm just glad I I have my own office so I could experience it in privacy. I felt like the world was crashing down and my mind went to how bad this is going to be for myself as a bi individual and the lgbtq community.

I'm not trans. Though, sometimes I wonder if I am. My gender identity is confusing issue for me. But I definitely have never let anyone know about my feelings on the subject or that I'm bi, outside the people I've slept with.

I can't imagine how scary it is for someone who is not only out of the closet but is trans. The lgbtq community has not done enough for Trans people. And that's not right.

It might be a pointless and unneccesary gesture, but, if you need to talk to somebody who will at least try to understand, I can arrange something.

Free elections in 2020, let alone 2024 if trump gets loving reelected, is hilariously optimistic to me right now. I like your version a lot better than mine.

I only have excellent ideas
I don't know if I've ever come out and said it on the forums per se but I'm trans too and today has been a loving nightmare. Around the election I was in a mental hospital because of a botched suicide attempt, I connived my way out of there because I was so desparate to vote even though I had a sick feeling of where the wind was blowing.

Every day since then has been a panicked argument with myself that being here is worth it, but like, I'm out now which mostly feels incredible, and after the fallout of that I know who my friends are, and it's a weird thing but when I signed up for this godforsaken website a billion years ago who could've guessed that this kind of conversation could be happening on it, which is a small grace I guess.

Site and Covok, you're good posters and as far as I can tell good people, and it's a hard loving time to be alive but you have my solidarity.
