Just wanna say thank y'all for the fine Bluesky rapport. As a writer across the genres & a comics aficionado, I just dig talking to other creatives, particularly comic creators and writers whose work I connect with. Also—for my birthday this past Tues., my co-pilot picked these up pour moi. ;)

"An effective tragedy... SPACE GHOST shines best when character arcs or character exploration is woven into an issue’s plot." Thanks for the kind review of SPACE GHOST VOL. 2 #8, @comic-watch.bsky.social! comic-watch.com/comic-book-r...

Well, that was a helluva fun, sexy, joy-filled halftime Superbowl show. Absolutely entrrtaining, showcasing Puerto Rican stereotypes and having a blast with them. Love how Bad Bunny listed countries from Argentina to Canada to show who actually lives in America. youtube.com/watch?v=G6Fu... 1/2

Trump claims he has the authority to impose tariffs to respond to an economic “emergency.” Is getting his feelings hurt an emergency? This shows how absurd is tariff crusade is.

Les choix que nous faisons aujourd’hui façonneront l’industrie automobile canadienne pendant des décennies. Notre nouvelle stratégie permettra de bâtir un secteur automobile plus fort, où nos travailleurs fabriqueront les voitures de demain et les vendront partout dans le monde.

Another random pic, from the holidays. My fave local Centretown pub. Again, I feel no compulsion to give any context for this pics. Draw your own conclusions, as the man said in the 1940 Jimmy Stewart film, The Shop Around The Corner.

"Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention without prescribed medication, lawsuit says: The 18-month-old was sent back to a South Texas facility after days in intensive care with severe respiratory distress, according to a federal lawsuit."

Hello, @denizcamp.bsky.social—just want to say congrats on winning 2025, between Assorted Crisis Events and Absolute Martian Manhunter, which made my year's-best list, and your Ultimates, of course. jameskmoran.blogspot.com/2026/01/comi...

Hey guys. I keep hearing the news reporting on this the same way. They weren't granted the right. That's still a violation of the 4th Amendment. If the press and everybody else could stop normalizing a regime full of liars' attempts to obliterate our Constitutional rights that would be awesome.

Showing up in Portland, Or! #handsoff #handsoff2025

The scale of the rally in Portland is MASSIVE. Simultaneously crossing the Morrison and Hawthorne Bridges in one long parade of democracy. Tens of thousands of people. #NoKings

Truer words.

What a fucking legend. RIP.

Marvel's Wonder Man wows. A startling, touching, underdog hit. It's terrific, even Wonderful. Yahya Abdul-Mateen & Ben Kingsley, always superb, bromance their way through this metafictional look at the acting craft, struggling to break into Hollywood, and being yourself. 1/2

Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."

The VERY MEAN AND NASTY Jesus Christ flipped over a bunch of tables in the temple and assaulted our fine money changers with a whip! HE WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS. Jesus is a well-known leftist who has NO RESPECT for the businesses that make our houses of worship great!

Bruce Springsteen has courageously given a stunning voice to the murder of Americans in the streets of Minneapolis at the hands of ICE agents. youtube.com/watch?v=GDaP...

R.I.P. Sal Buscema. Decade in & out, he was a storyteller of such remarkable quality that I’ve yet to hear anything but the fullest measure of praise for his work from his collaborators. Me, I discovered his work in 1970’s Avengers #72. I absolutely fell in love with it. It helped make a fan of me.
