Casual ask for support! My name is Emiliano and I am an indie comic artist and illustrator - always publish under the Jectoons handle.
I love community and free culture, and have been editing and publishing @fodongozine@sunny.garden for the past 3 years. This is a project in which I hire other indie artists to make 3-page comics to be released under free-cluture licenses, and do my best to make it open for everyone, releasing the issues for everyone to read after about a month! There's 25 issues already, go read some comics:

I want to ask that if you like this project and any of the other things I do, that you share it with someone else. And if you can help fund it, that would be amazing! I have a

As well as an OpenCollective account:

And a

I try to pay for all of this and to increase the amounts paid to artists every year, but I am currently working a minimum wage job that slows down my ability to cover these projects as much as I'd like to, because, you know: Life is expensive. Also I have cats. And they eat a lot.
I am not particularly good at asking for money, but every now and then I need to do so. That being said, I know a lot of us are on the same boat, so if you can only share Fodongo around, that'd be great and much appreciated.
Much solidarity,
Emiliano

😲 … 👀 at this essay from @jcolag@mastodon.social. John is doing something I really think that makes #FOSS great: exploring incomplete philosophical, political, and/or policy questions in public.
Strive to be comfortable with the stream of consciousness ramble and consider the ideas that John is exploring:
There are real insights about how errors in #SoftwareFreedom leadership left the #FreeCulture movement w/out its natural allies. Fascinating!
I look forward to next installment.
