This webcomic will be coming out of haitus. I can’t promise when, but it will. Working on new ideas, hopefully we can go back to our regular scheduling soon.

As our final post before our hiatus I would like to reblog my favourite comic so far. It’s definitely not our best work (I don’t like the colors tbh and drawing humans is not my forte), but it made a whole bunch of TERFs so mad that it now holds a special place in our heart.

Stay awesome, stay anarchist.

A dark-skinned women is trying to talk to two white men that look excited. The woman is wearing a trans-anarchism shirt and a red skirt. One man is wearing a purple “Gay is OK” shirt, the other is wearing a shirt saying “rainbow capitalism”.

Man 1: “We won equality! Gay marriage is legal! Hurray!” Woman: “Um, guys. I was literally evicted yeterday when my landlord found out my birthname.

Man 2 yells over her: “EQUALITY”.

Hello everyone, thank you so very much for supporting this blog. It has been a real joy to make this webcomic, but due to other obligations I will be stopping this project for now. I may revisit this in the future but for now I will not be making any more posts.

Fuck capitalism, fuck speciesism, fuck TERFs.

Stay strong, stay anarchist, smash the state. You all have been wonderful, thank you.

A four panel webcomic with 2 red circles having a conversation.

Red Circle 1: “I hate how liberals think peaceful protests are more important than recruitment.”

Red Circle 2: “Actually, recruiting is pointless. Liberals are just ignorent of the fact that peaceful protests are just one tactic among many.”

A cubeboy interjects in the conversation and says, “Hey, at least we have one thing in common! At least we all hate those goddamn bleeding heart liberals, trying to take all our money.”

Red Circle 1 pulls on a cord behind them, which opens a hole underneath the cubeboy and they fall through, screaming as they go. Red Circle 2 says “Nice one.”

4 panels showing a conversation between two rats in a drain.

Rat 1: I wonder why humans are so competitive with each other... Surely they should know that, as social animals, they’d be better off working together?

Rat 2: It’s capitalism’s fault. For those in power to get all the resources, they make everyone else fight over scraps.

Rat 1: Thank fuck we’re rats.

Stylized drawing showing two houses. The house on the right has a person crying in front of it because the house is on fire. The house on the left is fine, but two firefighters are spraying it with water so a pool of water is forming around it. The person living in the left house is standing in front of it, but is pointing to the house on the right saying, “Uhm.. but it’s that house that’s on fire!”

4 panel webcomic.

Panel 1: Image of a laptop and headphones. Above it says “Most are aware of the outrageous incident that was Gamergate.”

Panel 2 and 3: An image of an ant are in the middle of both panels. Around them is text that says “But do you know about the other kind of gamergate? Yes, They are a caste of ant *”

Panel 4: This panel says “Gamergates can’t be sexist, they don’t understand gender.” There is an ant underneath this text that says “Hey, screw you. I understand gender. I just choose to reject it.”

* Gamergates are worker ants that are capable of laying eggs. Sometimes they have even completely replaced the queen caste. The term predates the “Gamergate” incident by at least 30 years. For more information you can check out the wikipedia page on them, it’s pretty accurate.

Ants are awesome!

Panel 2:
