This has always been something that infuriates me. I have never checked the chromosomes of anyone. The percentage of people I know whose genitalia I have inspected doesn't even rise to 0.1%. We all, *all the time*, accept people's gender based on self-ID. That's the only way the concept can function

"Just one more thing - does the name 'Akira Yoshida' mean anything to you?"

Once again:

Me whenever I like a new thing:

Seems reasonable, think about everything that the attendees needed to deliberately ignore in order to show up in the first place

I am annoyed that the vague news tonight has made us pause our @jonbois.bsky.social "rushing the pitcher" series watch to figure out what's gone on.

As is often the case, I am going to reserve commentary on, or even reskeets of, this breaking news until We Know What the Fuck is Going On.

As DC’s publisher, Jim now has the opportunity to do the funniest thing: adjust the expectations of freelancers so no one ever has to worry about kicking into “5th gear” and damaging their health for unrealistic publishing schedules.

I just discovered that AmC is playing 4k imax Speed Racer tomorrow. I got tickets so fast. That is going to be an amazing night. In 24 hours I will experience Speed Racer IMAX.

Going out to enjoy the holiday by watching Speed Racer in Imax.

This is structurally identical to a Da Share Z0ne post

Among other things, listening to Dan analyze the bad editing/plotting of Beast Games makes me appreciate Jet Lag that much more.

Just finished the new folding ideas video. I think Dan's ability to absolutely eviscerate some Internet shithead is completely unparalleled. No one is doing it like Dan Olson is

BUSINESS AS USUAL, the social satire comic about a crew attempting to take down a generator-powered ICE detention center, has a little less than a week to go on kickstarter secure your copy here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar...

The publisher of Spider-Man can't figure out how to make comics for children. They leave that to Disney or license it out to other publishers. Even DC's been doing good YA stuff for 10+ years but Marvel can't figure out how to copy them. Ooh it makes me so furious

First class and fancy spa/massage treatments.

Every other day it's like "male singer exposed for running sex trafficking ring with his celebrity friends" and we're supposed to be mad at Chappell Roan for not being nice enough in an imaginary encounter she never had?

Comics Publisher Hopes To Find New Audience By Hiring Semi-Famous Media Personality To Pen World-Famous Character “We’re hoping he can bring his much smaller profile to our much larger IP”. They continued: “He's never written a comic, so we’re excited for the artist to have to fix everything”

Most big concerts are overrated.

Oh thank GOD. I have so many brain worms that no one has ever memed for me to share.

Set Up For Success: Creator Of Color Given Chance To Prove Self With Obscure Comic Character Nobody Cares About The new series will debut the same day as a relaunch of the publisher's most popular character as written by a white guy you've never heard of, per source.

we're live!

Get em!

Someone put a coaster on the earth.

Thatcher started burning in hell 13 years ago today. 🎉

I know it's late, but I need you all to realize that as soon as we started paying attention to these races, Moms for Liberty & their ilk, started losing. They exploited a window of apathy & did a lot of damage, but they just cannot win when actually opposed. No unopposed elections anywhere.

It's not over in Minneapolis! It's not over in Minnesota! ICE is still here, even if they're quieter and using somewhat different tactics.

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail. Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

In other Katie news, I tried this delightful Korean soda from my local bibimbap place today.

Got into a rabbit hole today and found out Amber Tamblyn's dad is Russ Tamblyn aka Dr. Jacoby in Twin Peaks and Riff in West Side Story.

Anyway, here's my dog from our walk to the lake this morning. Lucy is very good at the touch command now.

this looks really cool, and I 100% trust Books With Pictures’ taste/curation—the kids subscription especially would be a great gift

👏We👏fucking👏told you

after a quick review of my timeline i feel the need to point to the sign

Watched this last night and it hit hard

I goddamn adore this piece of multimedia science fiction. If you haven't experienced it, take a few hours and click the link down in the thread.

Not exaggerating when I say one of the best pieces of fiction of the 21st century
