Remember: Every "Now they're banning this cool thing!" story is really an opportunity to make a cooler version.

This was the worst comic I read. And yet someone in 2013 thought, "This needs to be revived." It lasted 8 issues.

Kept telling myself to check on my phone to make sure I wasn't overcharging it and when I finally did because I was going to go out it turns out I hadn't plugged it in right and is at 15%

I don't care who wins this race because I dont live in Texas but any of you weirdos who think that Presbyterians are the same thing as quiverfull hardcore evangelical types just don't know ball. this is like claiming Mister Rodgers is the same thing as a Falwell. Get serious.

Oh my!

OK, but there were already hundreds of riffs on it that actual people had made on YouTube!

This week's comic: Dinnertime Blues foxtrot.com/2026/02/22/d...

As I've said, Bluesky labels stuff so willy-nilly its labels are meaningless.

How is this "Graphic Media?"

You can tell antivaxxers don’t actually care about children because a child died and these sickos are using it as an excuse to share juice recipes and promote their supplements. There’s more aluminum in a cup of carrot juice than in the two-dose MMR series. And carrot juice doesn’t prevent measles.

Now I'm just a failed automotive journalist, so what do I know. but I do believe that this paragraph gives away that this story should have been dropped and never seen the light of day. instead of platforming a homophobic lie for a cover story. but again what do I know

Me: I know pantyhose are a little dated but I love how they even out my skin tone Teller: So is this not a robbery? Me: No, it is

My local paper, which has won Pulitzers, now uses AI for its real estate summaries. That was someone’s job.

Paul Dooley in "Popeye" - BOTD

For sale: baby shoes. So fuckin worn. This baby ran everywhere fast as shit

[Actor Paul Dooley, a Robert Altman regular, is 98 years old today! He co-created The Electric Company, and sometimes paints cats.]

When I hear lovely birdsong in the morning, I remember this comic and laugh

So wait, how many humans could we be feeding instead of powering ai? Let’s do that instead.

...ive...I've got a message...Lt Colonel Henry Blake's plane was shot...over Funky Town...they spun towards Electric Avenue, hoping to take it higher...it's spun out...out on the streets. Only Donna Summers will survive...it was his...last dance. ...

I should change my number

New Philosophy Tube just dropped on Nebula ⭐️ A complete history of conversion therapy from 1849-now, including an exposè of groups trying to keep it legal in Britain and enforce it on the NHS with the apparent blessing of Health Secretary Wes Streeting nebula.tv/videos/philo...

It’s the first time the US men’s and women’s hockey teams have won gold in the same Olympics 🥇🥇

What a photo from the Freep

Three weeks ago: We watched "Waiting for Guffman" Two weeks ago: We watched "A Mighty Wind" Netflix today: Because you watched "Waiting for Guffman", we think you'd enjoy "A Mighty Wind"

There are now Mardi Gras beads made of biodegradable materials and have okra seeds in them that you can plant. The future can still look bright!

When Pokemon Go started the giant sports balls on the Dick's sign was a pokestop named "Dick's big balls" and I've wondered how many times that happened in other cities.

Just remembered that gay creator of the Heathers TV series who seemed to think the Heathers were aspirational. (I watched, the first season showed no sign of what he thought it meant that the Heathers are all murdered in the story.)

Holy shit @wired.com story written by a woman positioning gay men as insidious and suggesting this marginalized group is suppressing the success of straight men in the industry. They've got tons of anonymous sources (what's their agenda?) and in the first graph they even say this might not be true!

You don't write an article about "rumors" that never gets beyond rumors. You don't write an articln negatively positioning the success of a marginalized group. You don't write an article with anonymous sources targeting that group. Imagine if this was about Black people or Jews or trans people...

Going back to the 90s and telling people that in the future there's Olympic skaters doing a Mortal Kombat-themed routine with Techno Syndrome, costumes, and dizzy animations

My books cartoon for this week’s @theguardian.com

Happy birthday to this incredible tabloid front page from 1965. And someone, please, I beg of you, let me know where I can find page six.

🙁

Dick Tracy 16 Variant Cover Concept was to homage a famous crime / noir movie poster. So I picked one of the best ever - Scarface.

Remember this when the government starts going on about banning u16s from social media instead of forcing them to clean up their algorithms.

This crap has absolutely nothing to do with protecting children and everything to do with forcing people to give up their privacy and data to companies like Palantir.

Okay that prompt gave me flashbacks to how for several weeks the radio station kept playing the album version of "What Time is Love" and then when they release it as a single, it's a completely revamped version. I still love these chaos agents.

The Gen X urge to elevate my mind.

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1805

This week, I wanted to draw a super-hero who had some connection to the Olympics. After thinking it over, I realized, who better to draw than the most "Olympic" super-hero of all? Hercules, (Heracles)! 🥇🥈🏅

Alright. I wasn't really expecting it but #Hollyoaks gave John Paul a good send-off, even if they mostly wasted him in the past several years.... tho now I think they should have written him in an affair with Sylver's twin.

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel. “The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”

The Lords of Acid at the Olympics. Gotta appreciate it when there's something good on the timeline.

This is peak culture.

For those whose main idea of Mexican food is tacos, tacos, tacos, an update from Mexico City: -Squash blossom omelette from El Cardenal -Winter squash soup from new Condesa restaurant Sente -Grilled eryngii mushrooms with almond-cumin sauce from Sente
