Annie BOT Annie BOT Annie BOT

Felt incredibly targeted/pandered to in the latest @overduepod.bsky.social with @mcgetting.bsky.social's rendition of Annie(bot) Waits.

The Eisner ballot is live and it looks like they took out the anthology with the AI story. My biggest sympathies to the other creators in that anthology, you deserved better, but this was the correct choice.

Who else watches From because I neeeeeeed to discuss the latest episode!! God, this show is the flipping best.

I have been very good and worked on freelance projects all day so it’s time for my reward

My computer refused to reopen tabs after I just restarted it. 500+ tabs. GONE 😭😭😭

Interval and I am literally like …. five inches from scenes, I get what they meant. I’m basically in some parts. I have almost been hit by a cannon, poked by a spear and the lead player has faux flirted with me three times now lol

Front row at Pippin. Have been told the show is ‘quite active’ so ‘hands and arms inside the ride.’ Ready for the experience!

It's favorite coworker's last day and he just came to say goodbye. 😞 I'm going to miss that guy.

this is... wild actually? it's just been a birthright trip fund for east coast teens this entire time?

This self help book sight gag from the latest Widow’s Bay just took me out

Training AI on a dead man’s work and publishing it under your ‘AI’ pseudonym?? I cannot think of anything more terrible. I feel sorry for everyone else in that anthology that has been tarnished by one dude’s need to feel cool.

Rawbraining it

Once again I'm back in Nairobi for the ongoing and apparently endless inquest into my sister's death here four and a half years ago. BBC coverage here and more to come - any enquires feel free to DM or email me on pdkmitchell at gmail dot com www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Help, my cat’s too cute

Your girl just got a very good opportunity dropped in her lap out of nowhere so everyone cross your fingers~

I’m being strongly spoken to

Comics people! This year if you want to vote in the Eisners (and didn’t receive an email saying you’re already registered), YOU MUST APPLY BY 13 MAY. Make your voice heard! Historians, educators, ✨ librarians ✨ and comic / webcomic creators should apply here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Some theatre tonight!

Ran to the library on my lunch break and saw @cooklincomics.bsky.social’s book in the wild! Featuring my first ever blurb! Proud of you, friend! 💕

NSF: Hokum. As someone who enjoyed Caveat and LOVED Oddity, I’ve been so excited for this!!

A class at my kids’ school put up little statements about the good they want to do in the world and I was over the moon about this one - then I learned they meant to say “teach people in jail” which is also good!

JAMES ACASTER. JOE LYCETT. MIRANDA HART. .... JAMES BLUNT?? This series is going to RIP

My barista has found a new and exciting way to write thank you

Started the day by visiting the work kittens. Six weeks old today!!

Okay, so what I'm learning is that I should definitely finish this

One day I'm going to finish my Jane Austen rewrite set in the world of comic conventions manuscript and it'll be all over for all of you~~

Behind this car on my way to work and this bumper sticker made me laugh

Evening Viewing

Happy Shakespeare Day to all who celebrate! (A Master’s in Shakespeare might have not given me a career but by god, I’m having a holiday)

Went to pub trivia with a friend tonight and as a two person team, we came in 11th out of 17 (we were 6th until the music round lol) and I will take that! Also, hopefully we can each drag at least one person with us next time haha

New season of From!! Just finished the first episode, so excited for more, worried for our Fromville-ians!

“clown event still possible” put that in your pocket, I can already tell you that this is the key phrase of 2026

Shenandoah and Luray Caverns today!

Just a little close at the Rhys Darby show

4 more hours of work and then it's BESTIE VACATION TIME~~~ 🎉🎉👯‍♀️👯‍♀️💕💕

Visited the work kittens again today

View from lunch break

True sadness is Mother being so close yet so far

Finally set up my lounger on my back patio (yay!) but the cats are feeling betrayed

Just applied for what may be the perfect job, everyone cross your fingers~

Triple Feature Day! Seated for movie one, which I want to see for myself lol

It's the annual Ask a Manager salary survey! Every year, vastly fewer men fill this out than women. Men, please share your salary info (anonymously) so we have concrete salary comparisons to inform pay negotiations and fight the pay gap

Just applied to the local queer books festival which I missed last year as I'd just moved. Fingers crossed crossed crossed because it would be so nice!

I got my dad a ‘Tell your dog I said hi’ hat for Father’s Day a couple years ago and I fear I will never top that gift. He wears it EVERYWHERE, if you are looking for good gift ideas!

NSF: Hunting Matthew Nichols, a movie I have intentionally avoided reading about. I’m excited for it.

Happy, Happy Birthday to @helioscopepdx.bsky.social, a studio full of wonderful people who befriended me when I didn't even know if I wanted to write comics, just wanted to be pals, and supported me through a surprise writing career. What amazing, talented people have passed through these spaces!

Evening editing buddies

Guys, I’m trying to eat
