In San Francisco, a scheduled power outage was interrupted by an unscheduled power outage. Last week, 1/3 of the city was in the dark. SF, for years, has been moving to buy out PG&E. Could it use eminent domain if PG&E says no? It just might. @esksf.bsky.social missionlocal.org/2025/12/pge-...

PING PONG THE ANIMATION

"Small and indie publishers often rely on generative AI for marketing, planning, and analysis because they lack the staffing and budgets of large publishers." Name five.

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

no, it's not sports yaoi. I don't want to draw sports...

can't wait for my next book that will have ZERO guns. i think. maybe

Talk about a heated rivalry. 🔥 Movie: PROMARE from Hiroyuki Imaishi and Studio TRIGGER

If you didn't get the presents you hoped for, here is another chance...

after writing and drawing the third skill of making comics is weathering the slog, and ultimately finishing it, and this is the hardest and most important part lmao. and needs to be practiced just as hard as the other two. and you’ll get better at the other two by practicing the third

"santa buddy" still sounds gay as hell

Walter Benjamin wrote that the work of translation is “to liberate the language imprisoned in a work" to find the “pure language” of “the unfathomable, the mysterious, the ‘poetic’”. This is all, of course, utterly anathema to AI

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

I'll never "pivot to video." maybe when I'm 80 I'll hire a college student to film me in my tool shed à la Herzog

you know how there were rumors of people killing themselves because they weren't born on pandora? that's how i feel about Gethen

park n' ride ➡️ BART to the airport feels too good to be true

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Remember when people said it was crazy to think that we were in an AI bubble? When they would actively mock you for doubting the glory of the LLM era?

This looks absolutely incredible. Whether or not you make webcomics, if you enjoy reading them maybe sling these guys a few bucks and help them pay it forward to webcomic creators in the future!

this is the realest shit ever posted and when you become a parent you spend a lot of time internally screaming about it

"Found In Translation" 490 pcs., 15"x15"x1", 2 layers, D: 9.8/10 - this was the trickiest puzzle commission of the year, hands down. I am pretty good at cutting weird tiny shapes but doing 200+ hieroglyph drop-outs and keeping all the surrounding pieces nice and connected was a real challenge.

abu dhabi serving nothing 🥱 I miss my beautiful wife MotoGP

This is also why several western states are the shapes they are - There was a fight prior to the Civil War where both pro- and anti-slavery sides were adding new states to the Union in equal numbers (to keep the Senate balanced), so sliced up territories to fit the compromise lines they'd made up.

wayfair has some truly ugly desks for sale

my car is in the shop for another week BUT I can walk or take the train everywhere now that I've moved to a new town. W for walkable cities

Buy this book. You won't regret it

I Sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter wasn't actually that intense. A lot of the "queer community" pilloried a trans woman and ran her out of society entirely and buried her literary future because they felt like it and they could taste blood in the water, and that's how all this works.

Two years ago, Tam's best friend Iphi was the sole casualty of a freak tsunami. Now, Iphi’s back—impossibly alive with a newfound affinity for water—and threatening to upend the peace that Tam has built after the years of grieving … by… being a really fun person to hang out with?

Water your tree.

I genuinely don’t understand why people who don’t like to read books want to write them.

Good news on this grey day, we managed to secure some funding for the comics residencies in 2026! There should be around 2-4 free spots. Watch out for the open call.

Yesterday, the Epic Games Store decided at the last minute not to distribute the game, after having previously approved a release build. HORSES is otherwise now available on GOG, Itch, and Humble for $4.99. www.horses.wtf
