#AndNEW!!! @willowwrestles.bsky.social is the FIRST EVER TWO TIME TBS Champion!

Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

The USS Bone Spurs

Terrific piece about the realities of life in the entertainment industry right now.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office. If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

My comics career and my marriage to a union woman both being 40 years long is not a coincidence.

“Your job is to tell people why they matter. To tell them the truth.” Mike & Alex close out The Bunker by @joshfialkov.bsky.social Joe Infurnari w/ @gonzaloduarte.bsky.social — time travel, consequences, & the myth of “only I can fix this.” @oni-press.bsky.social #TheBunker #ComicsPodcast

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

It's release day for Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis: The Graphic Novel by FFC, me, and Jacob Phillips! Here's more information about it, recent press, a couple upcoming signings, and an extended preview of the book, too: chrisryall.substack.com/p/tales-of-s...

Dave Mathews! Your country needs you!

Somewhere, Will Arnett is just waiting for the call to be SNL's Newsom.

Still collecting supplies for my classroom if you’re feeling generous. If you haven’t heard — after 20+ years as a writer I was burned out & needed to do something to give back in this bleak timeline. So I’m teaching theater in LA’s inner city at an LAUSD school . www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

I think we can all agree that the best comic to give to first-time comics readers is HECTOR PLASM: HUNT THE BIGFOOT #1, coming in October from Image Comics

from Marvel Girl #1 (2011), written by Joshua Hale Fialkov, art by Nuno Plati #Comics #Same @joshfialkov.bsky.social @nunoplati.bsky.social

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority? ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles /

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

Last day at FanExpo Boston. @chrisrobinson.info and I are at Artist Alley table A602 and we’d love to see you!

a person so serious about swimming that he doesn’t realize high school and college events are done in short course yards which means they swim less distance & get a boost from extra turns, vs. Olympians in an Olympic pool, making boys’ high school records also better than men’s Olympic records

If you're going to be at FanExpo Boston this weekend from August 8th to August 10th, come by Artist Alley A602 to meet me and @chrisrobinson.info. We're going to have a lot of books, tons of comic experience between us, and overall, we're just an awesome stop at the show. See you there!

The fine folks @dynamitecomicshq.bsky.social have a Humble Bundle that’s got a bunch of my comics in it. Vampirella and Devillers and I feel like something else too. 20k pages for $20 bucks! Helps support their staff during a big transition for them. Go get some. www.humblebundle.com/books/dynami...

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome. Love, Allison

This is the best thing you'll see today, and I say that as a person who wrote something awesome today and does not lack for confidence.

i unironically think that the richard scarry pig who is a butcher who is also selling bacon and other pork products is an excellent metaphor for a lot of what is going on right now tbh

Five Tips for Practicing Mindfulness as the Mushroom Cloud Grows in the Distance thehardtimes.net/blog/five-ti...

went to a lecture on the science/philosophy of evil tonight and pondered that the lecturer on this topic has perhaps the most secure job in academia, something I never anticipated I’d say about a professor of philosophy

“I’m plainly convinced that my situation in this ICE jail is direct retaliation for my coverage,” Mario Guevara told @ajc.com in an exclusive interview from the Folkston, Georgia ICE detention center where he is currently detained, despite a judge's bail order. “I haven’t committed any crimes.”

While I’m glad that stories about Trump and Epstein are gettiing traction, as someone who has been on Team “Hey This Guy Talks About Wanting To Fuck His Own Daughter Waaaaay Too Much To Be President, Right?” since early 2015 — it’s a little infurating that some people are just now waking up to this.
