Fantastic graphic novel. (Also, Crystal Frasier is awesome.)

I always felt that panel didn't really describe my experiences, though. I didn't feel numb; there isn't really a word for how I felt. I needed to cry, but couldn't. I had surges of emotion I didn't understand. I felt like the things expected of me as a "man" were uncomfortable and incomprehensible.

PSA: I will be blocking anybody pushing anti-voting propaganda. You might mean well, but you're serving the fascists.

The right has managed to hold power in the US despite being a political minority BECAUSE they vote — they turn up for off-year elections and state and local offices. Progressives just... don't. We need to change that.

Very nicely put. We have a long line of Republican presidents who attempted to undermine democracy, up to and including collaborating with hostile foreign nations. None of them ever faced meaningful consequences. Trump was not only inevitable, he's not even the end point — the next Republican attempt to subvert or nullify elections will be even more blatant.
