Picked up this cultural artifact at an estate sale. Released in year of Simpsons seasons 1 and 2!

Proud advisor moment. Check out my student, Emily Zohar's, new paper (her first first-authored paper) on how norms shape how effort. Yes, when we see hard workers around us, we work harder. But...when we see lazy people around us, we also work harder. Check it out! psycnet.apa.org/record/2027-...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer was the first show to use the word "Google" as a verb on TV.

We wrote a fun article in 2025 on power and influence in the Maltese Falcon. You can read it for free! journal.media-culture.org.au/index.php/mc...

So NXT needs a GM and Brie Brella is back in WWE. I vote for Daniel Bryan as NXT GM.

Opened a pack I had around today and found this. He was a favorite during his Mets time.

My local place for comics did a 25 cents sale, lots of treasures

Excited to announce that we are hosting the BDiGRA (British Digital Games Research Association) 2026 Conference at the University of South Wales. Conference Announcement and Call For Papers below bdigra.co.uk/bdigra-2026-...

Had to pick this up for 25 bucks. Such a great She-Hulk run. I remember getting remaindered graphic novels of this run cheap in the Half .com days...

Fun garage sale pickup

Had to pick this omnibus up for 25 bucks. Great run by Christopher Priest!

“...The answers were yujo (friendship), doryoku (effort, or perseverance), and shori (winning, or victory). These three words then became the criteria for selecting the stories.” 6/12

Demon Slayer’s success is attributable to a number of factors, but a big variable here has to be the site of publication: Weekly Shonen Jump, and the unique hold that this particular publication has on the world of manga in general. #demonslayer 1/12

In a random bag of cards these happened to be next to each other.

Just looking at the cover transports me back to the 90s...

The 90s are alive tonight in my reading!

Current read. Fantastic book and related to a secret future project...

Recent pick up. Actually one of first Batman comics I ever read (from a 3 pack). Also interestingly post Crisis but pre-Year One.

I had a good time talking about pop culture and learning leadership, with a focus on our @iosyislam.bsky.social book teaching leadership through Avatar: The Last Airbender. www.youtube.com/live/SrsZ8j_...

Picked this up recently. Fun read, perhaps my first time reading original comics Mobius.

Fun little pick up, 1992 DC Cosmic set. The history hero of hero cards are fun, but man starting set with Blue Beetle just doesn't seem a good marketing idea...

This omnibus has been sitting for 3 years in clearance for 80 bucks at Books-a-Million. They finally reduced the price, $15 seems like an auto buy.

With the new season out, here is a blog I wrote talking about the motivational aspects of working at Pokémon Concierge! www.talentmetrics.io/blog/2024/1/...

Couldn't pass up an early Dark Knight Returns trade for a buck. I thought I already had this version, but apparently I had the Warner Bros edition. Here are both.

Dollar bin pick up- Magic: The Gathering comics still sealed with tokens!

Very cool video on a classic story. youtu.be/kygjHSzAjMs?...

My favorite Pokémon series is back! Pokémon Concierge is about the people and Pokémon working at a Resort/rehabilitation center for Pokémon. Worth checking out on Netflix

Batman apparently thinks a Bat villian as an ambassador for a country strains credulity. I'm sure we won't see this again, eh? (Brave and Bold 131, 1976. Haney & Aparo) @big5army.bsky.social @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social @dailybatman.bsky.social @eescovar23.bsky.social @theronscomics.bsky.social

Picked up a nice stack of Brave and the Bold readers recently. @vinsonlovescomics.bsky.social @big5army.bsky.social @mikester.bsky.social @comicfoil.bsky.social @iosyislam.bsky.social @nicluvsmovies.bsky.social

Reading this tonight!

Can't remember if I shared this here yet. We did a fun paper looking at The Maltese Falcon in terms of influence and bases of power. Free to read. journal.media-culture.org.au/index.php/mc...

Fascinating unknown part of Marvel Comics history. flaminghydra.com/a-swingin-su...

Since search is dead, how soon do you think Google Scholar is headed for the Google Graveyard? I'm betting it's soon, and academia is NOT prepared

Reading tonight a 2012 Marvel series I never heard of before, Spellbinders by Carey & Perkins. I will say if your daughter is having prophetic dreams, moving to Salem to escape them seems a bit misguided...

‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Wins 2 Hugo Awards, First Franchise Wins Since TNG Finale##startrek #hugoawards https://bit.ly/stldshugowins

Fun little buck each pick up from a card show- 30s movie star Tobacco cards

Starting my read tomorrow!

Got a nice stack of 90s Marvel cards today at Flea market.

Trying to keep up to date on AI. (Science March 1985 issue)

Sealed, so hopefully works from 1978.

Read this last night, I had forgotten James Robinson started this run. Strong start, it is real what-if for me if he has done the long run on this, not Geoff Johns #comics #DC
