Sounds like I got the cover artist I was hoping for on my next book.

here's something cool: the son of the letter carrier on Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood (McFeely) is a real letter carrier for the USPS and he's our letter carrier and he's awesome

context on why Jackson made this order regarding SNAP. It's strategic, but also causes harm. There's no ethical course of action in an unethical government. we survive because of bandaids.

I love this book.

Seattle's mayoral race will end up quite close; that could make 'challenged' ballots that had some issue key to resolving the race. WA allows voters to "cure" their ballot, i.e. come in and explain or fix issues like forgetting a signature. (Not all states allow this.) Info from the county:

Seattle, if you want Wilson to win, here's a great chance to help her out!

People out there really think someone would call themself “Cloud Strife” and *NOT* have pronouns in their bio?

Seattlites, check to make sure your vote was counted! Katie Wilson needs every vote.

Straight up respect man for real! @tonygregori.bsky.social art was dope as knew it be which is a basic fundamental of just cool art simply haha

Hire Kelly!

My mum just said to me "You should be hung like a horse". When I challenged her over saying such a thing, it transpires she thought it was a punishment horses got. Turns out she's been incorrectly using the phrase since the 90s in various settings

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

So: Trump announces tariffs -> prices go up -> SCOTUS declares the tariffs unconstitutional -> prices come back down -> Trump takes credit for lowering prices. Seems like pretty straightforward long con.

It says here that Hillary and Biden will be giving a joint eulogy at Dick Cheney’s funeral to announce the 25th anniversary reinvasion of Iraq and that Zohran Mamdani has been arrested for skateboarding.

Twenty-nine sailors drowned when the Edmund Fitzgerald went down in the Great Lakes' icy waters on Nov. 10, 1975. The ship was immortalized in a surprise hit 1976 folk ballad by Gordon Lightfoot. n.pr/3JKj19D

It's FOC for our little sci-fi/spy/action/family dramedy. Mr. Millar thinks you should tell your local comic shop to order you a copy now.

I am really impressed with @ignitionpress.bsky.social output so far. Not just the quality of the books but also the volume of material. They’re not teasing the market. They are making a statement. “Here we are. Get used to it.” Good on them.

I read this - it's a real personal-drama-turned-witch-house-A24-y horror novella and great to see Robert write his own stuff.

I heard a familiar melody on the air while reading Batman #1 before a flight. I wrote about it, and hope you'll follow me on a short journey about Bat-aesthetics, writers and visual styles, and why Batman is in its Jorge Jimenez era.
