Beyond thrilled to let you all know that yr boi is now Senior Designer at @readtinyonion.bsky.social. Couldn't be more excited to join this dream team of folx working to make the best damn stories on the stands & beyond. Looking forward to making fantastic comics, [redacted], [redacted], and more!

It would be really silly to drop big news on the Friday after New Year's, right? AND YET.

First movie watched of 2026. Another fine Motern Media entry and a great start to the year. I highly recommend spending the $20 to watch this. vimeo.com/ondemand/evi...

Yeah. youtu.be/X_Ysco6vWKA?...

Hope you're all visited by New Year's Steve* tonight. *The seemingly immortal spirit of the worker who was accidentally killed in 1907 when the first Times Square Ball Drop was disastrously arranged by New York Times owner Adolph Ochs and who now returns every year to seek revenge on the wicked.

Still more than a few from this year I wanna see (Marty Supreme, Evil Puddle, Sorry Baby, Taroman Expo Explosion, Mickey 17, etc), but here’s my 2025 Letterboxd stats: letterboxd.com/bigredrobot/...

My one X-Men hot take is that Iceman should have stuck to his original look. I know his current appearance is more accurate to his name, but like, imagine you’re the Master of Magnetism and you get your ass handed to you by a teen who looks like Frosty the Snowman.

Legitimately excited for 2026.

Protein Slammin' Strawberry asked not to be eaten and dove off the toaster and escaped at the Pop-Tarts Bowl. I'd like to point out how very close I came to calling this by saying Protein Bumpin' Blueberry would do this. In fact, this counts, I called it. I'm counting it.

I think I have a tight five about Arby’s in me.

Is there anything better than seeing a goth working a normal-ass job? Like, you see a goth folding clothes at a Ross Dress For Less and you’re like, “A dark angel is among us.” Feels good.

You would have to like capture me in a net and tranquillize me and then still drag my slowly-anesthetized body as it literally kicks and screams in a vain attempt to outrun the drugs in order to get me in a movie theater for that Will Arnett/Bradley Cooper standup comedy movie.

Gave myself a little holiday present and subbed for a year of @andrewhickey.500songs.com’s Patreon. If you’re not listening to The History of Rock Music In 500 Songs, like… what are you even doing?

I like this poster that looks like Frankenstein is skanking.

Listening to PM Dawn’s OF THE HEART, OF THE SOUL AND OF THE COSMOS: THE UTOPIAN EXPERIENCE. It’s really good!

Payakan.

Just sitting here thinking about the mall I used to hang out in when I was in high school and how it’s still operating, but doesn’t have a single recognizable chain store and a large part of its square footage is now a weird aquarium across from an indoor go kart/arcade combo.

I'll be real -- it's tough to keep people excited about an ongoing series past the issue #1 hype. Coverage dies down, people shed off, and it generally feels like you're screaming into the void. The Author Immortal is a book I care about deeply, and star-making work from @morganbeem.bsky.social

I want to eat the Cheeto frog.

One time I was driving home thinking about how the South is so much more than people think it is and how rich and complex the cultures are and I looked out my window and saw a man chasing a pig down the highway on foot.

🎵 Hope for the fuuuuture 🎶

I feel about jazz the same way I feel about Fortnite: I’ve tried it more than a few times and I really don’t think it’s for me, but I do kind of see the appeal, and I’m happy for the people who enjoy it.

Ralph rules and Alternate Reality rules.

I won't announce that I've come into possession of an eldritch artifact that makes all of my desires come true – but at what cost?! – but there will be signs.

Joni Mitchell singing “Free Man In Paris” tho.

A’ja Wilson is Time's 2025 Athlete of the Year. The 29-year-old stood atop the WNBA again this year, winning an unprecedented fourth MVP as her Las Vegas Aces earned a third championship in four seasons.

Movies I’ve watched more than six times? Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure Step Brothers Mary Poppins Aliens Barb & Star Go To Vista Del Mar

Love to watch the Chiefs eat shit.

There hasn't been a new Yo La Tengo album since 2023 and we should all feel bad for whatever we did to cause them to retreat.

“Please, ‘Dr. Pepper’ was my father. Call me ‘Doug.’ “‘Dougter Pepper.’”

Midnight Global Entertainment pin! Coming soon! #LakeYellowwoodSlaughter

I keep getting Instagram ads for Alan Moore’s BBC Maestro class and I get so delighted every time I hear him say, “Wroyting and magic ah prackticlee the sayme thing.”

Many are saying they will deny themselves the spectacle of The Movies, and they are fools

Kind of annoyed that I suddenly started singing this.

The real Alchemy was the friends we made along the way, but in a very good and sincere way.

Hopeless bleak despair / it was always there / and then, one day, it disappeared. youtu.be/Eeqnq8Nzewc?...

Now available in my shop -- a PDF of Book I of my expansive new mythology of Christmas, encompassing the life, death, and rebirth of St Nicholas! If you've heard me mention my "Silmarillion of Christmas," this is it (NB they are only similar in scope, not tone) www.patreon.com/posts/new-yu...

Ah, I see we’ve reached the point of the season where it’s everybody else’s fault that Aaron Rodgers sucks shit.

I heard they added Adam Sandler as Longfellow Deeds in the 2002 motion picture MR. DEEDS to Fortnite.

People who like to shit on Macca’s “Wonderful Christmastime” are so boring, especially when Lennon’s Christmas song is ~10000x worse. One is a delightful bit of holiday fluff with some great farty keyboards and the other is the most pretentious, up-its-own-ass dreck imaginable.

LAKE YELLOWWOOD SLAUGHTER is the graphic novel "adaptation" of a 1983 slasher movie that never existed (directed by a has-been giallo filmmaker cashing in on Hollywood's new slasher fad). This time, the summer camp killer goes after the parents. It's by me and Gavin Guidry…and you can order it here!

Here comes Santa Claus In stores next week

Gonna listen to some John Prine and get some work done today.

5 movies off the top of my head you may not know that are darn good: Idaho Transfer One-Armed Executioner Don’t Let the Riverbeast Get You! Emperor of the North God Told Me To

Here’s a preview of BATMAN/GREEN ARROW/THE QUESTION: ARCADIA #1. Follow the link to see the first 6 interior pages. In stores this Wednesday!

Just played against a guy named Piss Pisstoferson in Destiny 2.

Josh Allen is cool but imagine Josh Alien. Just a cool dude from outer space who can throw the hell out of a football.
