[ twenty one pilots - Oldies Station ]
***
The mountain in the last panel here is a metaphor, part of the imaginary landscape I've been drawing for years. Initially there was supposed to be a forest at its base, but when I toned this comic early last week I found that it looked more like fire, and given what this past year decade has been like, it felt more appropriate given what the landscape means to me in my work, so I left it that way. This is before news started coming in a week ago about the wildfires in Los Angeles.
If you have the means to help, the Mutual Aid LA Network has a list of resources and of orgs that need donations and volunteers. I think it's clear moving into this year that institutions, companies, and people believing themselves capable and virtuous simply because they have more money than God are not the places to look to for help. They need us. What the rest of us need is each other.
If you're in France and Germany, the same will apply. In the meantime, please do your part in Germany and vote on February 23 if you can. A lot of the people you care about cannot.
