Some see a Warhammer 40k T'au Manta, some see a ship from Ace Combat, I see the Banshee airborne fortress from the anime Yukikaze! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Go8j...

If you aren’t Jewish and don’t get how this is antisemitic, I’ll do a short TLDR; Jews sometimes refer to gentiles as goy or goyim. That’s not a slur, even if it’s derogatory. If you’re a gentile saying it, specifically self-deferentially or defiantly , it’s a guaranteed Nazi dogwhistle.

The "reactionary left" has a psychosocial architecture where anti-establishment credentials provide a moral license to engage in public bigotry — as long as you can reclassify marginalized groups as agents of power. In the same way, trans-inclusive feminism is dismissed as a "bourgeois" distraction.

While some of these announced ships would be neat to own, Fanhome is burning through good will right now with a very poorly handled change to their US shipping facility. Postponed and cancelled orders, endless authorization charges, little to no clear communication, the works.

I think the fun thing about the latest John Oliver episode is that he’s mainstreaming what has been common discourse here for months, in that if you’re a government official/reporter/someone who considers themselves a non-Nazi then what the FUCK are you still doing on X?

Watching the new Corridor Crew video on AI crap and feeling so frustrated about Amazon's embrace of (or at least allowance of) slop books. My books took YEARS of research and writing, not to mention editing, etc. And yeah, they're not perfect, but they're human and there's heart and soul in them

Fun new @roddenberrypod.bsky.social video with @jessicalynnverdi.com sharing some of the best Erica Ortegas scenes from Star Trek Strange New Worlds! 🖖 youtu.be/tppRh6Ulup4

Yes please!

For those keeping score at home:

If you see this, post a character that starts with A:

I feel like a Sentinel from X-Men comics whenever I find a carrot like this. MUTANT DETECTED, MUTANT DETECTED

No writer is a failure until they are dead. Full stop. A career in writing is built over decades. It's built like a house, brick by brick, book by book. Not published yet? Emphasis on YET. Book not selling? It's not selling YET. You're only done when you quit. And I don't think you're ready to quit

Had an incredible night taking my family to see Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, with the incomparable @georgetakei.bsky.social! The man is a gem and has so many incredible stories, and it was wonderful seeing one of my favorite movies on the big screen

For your consideration, a very silly orange cat who definitely heard something* in the other room. *Nothing was in the other room

and i keep seeing "sorry i have to talk about my book, music, movie, comic, whatever" and it sucks that they're making us feel this way!!

Exactly right. Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign. Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE. Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them. Every possible angle.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

People like to say that Gen Xers are as Hardcore as we are because we drank from fucking garden hoses and had little to no supervision from our absentee parents, but really I think we're all just fucked up from all our trauma bonding in childhood.

If only I knew this 11 years ago when I got hooked at 36! Alas, all the signs were right there... 🤦

An excellent adaptation of the King in Yellow!

On Saturday my son and I drove two hours to the Palm Springs Warhammer Open, and we had a great time! Free to enter, walk around, and look at everything, even if we weren't there to play. Met up with a couple friends of mine who were there competing, did some shopping, and had a really fun day!

Got my first "industry" review of Naming Your Little All-Star from the folks at Midwest Book Review! #booksky

Elks have the best titles

Are these guides for committing theft at churches???

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Got my copy in today!

It's book release day!!! 🥳📙 🥳📙 Get Naming Your Little All-Star everywhere books are sold, spread the word, and ask your local book store AND LIBRARY to carry it. Everything helps! linktr.ee/namingyourli... @familiusbooks.bsky.social #booksky

From the copyright page of my upcoming (second!) themed baby naming book Naming Your Little All-Star: No artificial intelligence was used in the writing or production of this book. It won't matter to some, but I think it's important. #booksky

Had a blast taking the family to see Raiders of the Lost Ark at the @vidiots.bsky.social theater the other day. We warned our little one about the ending and while he kept asking if the "face melting" scene was coming, he was brave and watched it. And the audience cheered when the Nazis got wrecked!

I love these guys and their podcast. I've been on multiple times and it's always been a lot of fun. If you're a Warhammer person you should check them out, and share your story/interest/theories, etc.!

Have you seen the first Odyssey trailer? I have thoughts based on my studies of Homer and #greekmythology! (Lots of people will talk about the anachronistic armor, ships, etc., but I don't care so much about that stuff.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mzw2...

Thanks to @bambulabglobal.bsky.social and @makerworld.bsky.social for taking out the trash. Hopefully we can keep this kind of crap off an otherwise very fun and useful site.

Really disappointing to see racist, anti-Semitic garbage like this on the @bambulabglobal.bsky.social @makerworld.bsky.social site. At the top right of the page next to "IP Report" is a drop down with an option for reporting it, if you're so inclined. makerworld.com/en/models/21...

Oh my god y'all I had not seen the rest of the Vanity Fair photos holy shit. Christopher Anderson deserves a medal. Look at this. He left the LIGHT SWITCHES in the edited photos! These assholes look like their well-meaning mom took a picture of them on their first day in a grown-up job.

we can kill them all if we just work together and ✨believe💫

Every year for Hanukkah I like to share panels from this special holiday comic I edited when I was on staff at Marvel. There remains a dearth of specifically Hanukkah stories in comics and this one only ever appeared in print once. Every year I am proud to share and celebrate the light of Hanukkah:

20 out of 20, and I needed my glasses to read the list

Just received my author copies of Naming Your Little All-Star, my newest super fun and informative themed baby naming book! It has tons of names and interesting facts, and it's HUGE. The book comes out 01/06/2026 but you can pre-order now. Tell your friends! #booksky linktr.ee/namingyourli...

Our new video is out, Losing Yourself! Dr. Perez is trying to put the past behind him, but two sibling ghosts need his help to move on. youtu.be/BuXN-DMMzC0?... #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrorpodcast #horrorfan #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #horrorfam #ghoststories

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar. This is easy and I have many, but this one always springs to mind

Peanut Butter & Co. delivery day is always a good day! This should last my family a couple months 😋

Obviously this is impossible because Alan Moore looks like he's genetically a wizard, it's simply impossible to imagine what he would look like as a schoolboy oh there he is.

"Secret Santa" gift exchanges are the best, and my first one this year got me this incredible Jack Frost (horror movie, not the Michael Keaton one) ornament from LowkeeCreations on Etsy! I'm a big fan of the movies and I absolutely love this.

Per our annual tradition, we spent Thanksgiving in Las Vegas and had a great time. Surprised by the number of mullets I saw!

It's been wild watching Matt discover some of my old favorites like Attacktix, and now he's on to Star Trek HeroClix Tactics, a line I absolutely love. This also reminds me that out of the entire collection I'm still missing only TWO ships. Anyone have a lead on the Xindus or Fighter Squadron 6??? 🙏

Every time Udo Kier showed up in something I was watching, it was a delight. I have loved this man's work forever, and his early starring roles in Andy Warhol's Flesh for Frankenstein and Blood for Dracula are not to be missed. The blood of these whores is killing me!

I know every owner of an orange cat says this, but my orange cat is the dumbest of them all. No thoughts in that head, and I wouldn't want it any other way 😸

X-Men '97 has been awesome, and now you can play characters from it on the tabletop in the latest HeroClix expansion from @wizkidsheroclix.bsky.social! Check out my @afinsider.bsky.social review of a booster brick: www.actionfigureinsider.com/marvel-heroc...

Early on I guessed that Zendaya would be playing Athena in Nolan's Odyssey and that seems to be confirmed. As a (recovering) Classicist, I wholeheartedly approve! Casting for this movie is stellar

Spotted this amazing bumper sticker. I too sometimes catch myself thinking about the pool scene from Showgirls
