Martin Scorsese and his daughter Francesca read Letterboxd reviews and guessed which Scorsese movie they were about.

this is a game for a very specific kind of sicko.

I'm sending my next newsletter tomorrow morning. This is the best way to get all the happenings in my neck of the woods, and photos I do not upload to social media feeds. buttondown.com/latinxpress

man, the orange Balsamic sketchbook is a fave. I've had that on my ipad for ages now. these are well worth checking out:

Check out our interview!!! 🎉

Hanging out in arcades back in the day and specifically getting good at FGs taught me a lot, socially. "it's about what *they're* going to do" is a good guideline for people in general.

Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore Firenze, Italy 2022

I heard a familiar melody on the air while reading Batman #1 before a flight. I wrote about it, and hope you'll follow me on a short journey about Bat-aesthetics, writers and visual styles, and why Batman is in its Jorge Jimenez era.

People use crash out for anything these days, a thoughtless appropriation that reminds me of when people using -cc for aesthetic reasons and not crip ones

🚨 NEW on Shelfdust today! 🚨 Batman #1: Styles Upon Styles Upon Styles Is What They Have, by @iamdavidbrothers.com: shelfdust.com/2025/11/05/b...

You can get the first chapter of Cosy Witch Book (Brutal) digitally on itch 🌙✨ clairenapier.itch.io/cosy-witch-b...

Tomorrow, I ask why the Batman took hours out of his night to intimidate members of the local school board into accepting Bruce Wayne’s unhealthy and expensive school lunch initiative. We will not be strong-armed

thanks to everyone who signed up for this. I'm not looking at numbers really ("more than ten? success!") and I don't want to do a paid newsletter. I'd just like the gentle pressure of writing for an audience at my own speed, because I think I'd missed it while doing other stuff. I just like writing.

listening to Lupe Fiasco's "WAV Files" today, where the sea apologizes for carrying slave ships, the trees apologize for being made into the ships, and the stars apologize for shining instead of trying to save us www.youtube.com/watch?v=sG8D...

folks in San Francisco and everyone in the Oakland Bay Area...this is gonna be a good time! swing by the 1400 Bar & Grill after work and say hello to some great creators. Come see what Agent Cupcake is all about!

I liked this video! Decarnation has a really strong visual direction that drew me in, and the setting was really interesting as well. Henrique's video does a nice job of breaking the video game down from a variety of directions.

I hope I'm not jinxing things, but Marshall Bass from Igor Kordey & Darko Macan is coming out in English on 11/11. It's been pushed back a few times since its original release date but... I have a good feeling about this one!! It's almost here! www.ablaze.net/products?c=105

The Kickstarter campaign for my first solo comic, DREAMHOUSE launches tomorrow! I am equal parts stoked and anxious. I've got 104 followers on the project, I would LOVE to get to 150 by launch tomorrow. www.kickstarter.com/projects/rob...

I am really finding the limits of my video editing capabilities, but nobody ever got good at something by not doing it

$560 left! Let’s help them get under $500 left by the end of the day! 🙏🙌

my head is a mess lately, but I just found out the 10/23 Fighting Detectives IV: Straight Ahead event hit Wrestle Universe, including a Fuminori Abe & Hikaru Sato main event. man alive, I'd love to see one of these in person some time. spice.eplus.jp/articles/341...

CAN YOU FEEL IT IN THE AIR TONIGHT??

adding a dislike button would be a good move. there's a lot to dislike on here

there's probably a cabal of old heads out there who are still really upset that firefighters successfully used calendars and sex appeal to cover-up all those civil rights protesters they were water hosing in the '60s

this is written and schedule, so it's almost time to get my weekend started. it'll appear on my website too, but who has time to check more than one website a day? my goal here is to talk about whatever appeals to me in that particular moment, even if the take is mostly half-baked accordingly

I'm gonna try to do a bi-weekly...or so...newsletter. Again, I guess!! (me & you) was a huge hit. Will i am david brothers's newsletter be half as good? You can sign up on the sidebar over here: essays.iamdavidbrothers.com First one goes out at 6pm today, Oakland time, so please look forward to it.

No one can mention Prince's Batman album without me thinking of this: The True Story Behind Prince’s 1989 Batman Album * *not really by Kenny Keil

Zeroes of Wrestling Episode 26: Mongolian Chop Part 2: The Heretic. Somehow, my guest is @maffewgregg.bsky.social of Botchamania! Awesome! We talk about the lowest-rated matches from Royal Rumble 97, Souled Out 97, In Your House 13, SuperBrawl 7, and Uncensored 97. FAK! redcircle.com/shows/zeroes...

*playing Hades 2* me: "And in a second, I'm going to lose to the final boss of this game." my wife: "I don't want to hear that negativity. I believe in you." *Typhon appears on screen* my wife: "Actually, I can see where you're coming from."

unfortunately, adding Clive to Tekken 8 has convinced me that Final Fantasy XVI is the worst game in human history, easily the worst since Cain asked Abel "Hey you wanna play a game?"

Howdy Friends, I'm gearing up to launch the Kickstarter campaign for DREAMHOUSE. I would be delighted if you clicked the "Notify me on launch" button and help me spread the word! www.kickstarter.com/projects/rob...

I think you should check this out!! Robert does really nice work.

My very favorite band, Murder By Death, is hanging it up after 25 years. I made them this small painting and handed it off last night at their final Portland show. I'm going to miss them so much. Their music has meant a lot to me over the years.

this week on Being the Elite, I learned that Kazuchika Okada is a fan of the New York Knicks www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUCy...

Whenever I see someone try to rehab Sadako's reputation, I think to myself, I'll be surprised if she comes out of this well

this is live!

one of the best vibes in recent years has been watching pro wrestler Hikaru Shida weep her way through all of the Yakuza games, only to end up at Yakuza 0 Director's Cut, which she also cried her way through. She's a great streamer. High intensity bilingual streaming! www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ns5...

John David and Malcolm Washington in the Criterion Closet are really fun together but Malcolm's Nike/Roots Malcolm X (1992) crew jacket is prrrrrrobably the biggest flex I've seen in the closet thus far. I like the differences between these two brothers a lot too www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Tc0...

PBS News Weekend took a look at adult male friendships in the wake of a study about how 38% of men turn to friends for emotional support, while 54% of women do. It's nice hearing from regular degular dudes on this. The way we usually talk about this makes me wanna die www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmWS...

Henrique's videos have been excellent. I bought Decarnation on a Steam sale this year, lured in by the overhead horror vibes and beautiful music in French. I'm looking forward to seeing what he's got to ssay.

called someone’s parents ugly because they ran from the rematch while playing Tekken earlier. It’s true though

I don't believe in writer's block cuz I grew up listening to rappers freestyle

Stop arguing with me and return to your lessons, seen herein youtu.be/OO7cFg8efI0

listening to this freestyle for the first time in years, feeling like "Thank God hip-hop saved my life." this outro is diabolical: "And you the target, get all this in the clip The shells in the .9 Taurus got garlic on the tips"

Daiki Nagai is the real deal. it’s been nice seeing him get a spotlight over the past months, up to Super Jr Tag League now. He had a great showing as a brash heel on the 10/19 show. Excellent energy.

I was thinking about how Grant Morrison v Alan Moore echoes Tomonobu Itagaki v Katsuhiro Harada, in that it's largely one-sided until the target loses their temper, letting the junior member go, "See??" It's this: "Look, if I shoot you, I'm brainless/But if you shoot me, then you're famous"

Good news, everyone! Good Devils: Don't Play Fair With Evil from me and @nickdragotta.bsky.social is finally available on Kindle and (most importantly) Hoopla, the free library ebook app! I read mostly via Hoopla, so it's kinda cool to be up there. Check us out: www.hoopladigital.com/comic/good-d...

Unfortunately, the extra funding I was hoping for fell through... They don't have enough right now. I'm at 2,065/3,800 to stay in my place and though I may be able to get funding day of, I'm loath to rely on that in light of the rejection. Please support if you can.

I love watching people play the Yakuza games, but one of my favorite things is imagining the lives of the NPCs. And how many bike messengers and delivery dudes and commuters have to explain that their sole transport got used as a bludgeon to beat gangsters to a pulp.
