The only thing I'll say about the recent SCOTUS ruling is that y'all are never, EVER going to beat the Anti-Black racism allegations. And I mean ALL of y'all. Yes, even YOU. Because the way society treats us is a road map for how they'll eventually treat you, & y'all refuse to pay attention.

the romanticism of the starving artist is invoked not by artists but by people who aren't. it's misery/inspiration porn functioning as propaganda for people to feel like it's a worthwhile sacrifice for artists to die in misery instead of horrific, because they can take the art for themselves.

Did you know that in the basement of Waterstones Picadilly Circus there is currently an entire room dedicated to Kid's Comics? You should go and not just because Go-Man was on display so prominently! But seriously go check it out because it is running until May 31st!

It’s depressing to me that “reading“ is now framed as a hobby instead of, you know, a default activity for leisure and edification practiced generally by a literate populace.

It's sad seeing the most loser level dudes that you've ever met going to bat for Klay Thompson. This is exactly why yall are lonely and unloved lol.

This is a neat summary of the effects of gen-AI related Enshittification that I hadn’t seen before

NGL, I'm happy that this story has horrified y'all as much as it did me, because I thought I was losing my mind yesterday

I genuinely considered getting one since waiting for a Steam Deck feels like waiting for a new MCR album, but 99 bucks for a controller is entirely too rich for my blood right now 🫠

I know it sounds like I’m making a joke here, but Free Comic Book Day is this Saturday, May 2nd. Comics can be such a MASSIVELY useful tool for learning reading comprehension if you let them, and as much as the internet would have you believe otherwise, it’s not all male power fantasy.

I am very tired of people who create the cool stuff everyone loves dying prematurely and/or in poverty while every publisher under the sun is seemingly tripping over its own dick to figure out how to pay even *less* for the creations that pay for their yachts and country clubs

Keeping a cheater Death Note is the actual wildest shit I've heard in a minute. Launch that man into space IMMEDIATELY

When will we see those in power encouraging a change in the system so that we are not all burning our candles from both ends? It will benefit everyone in the long run.

Here's a goddamn win and thank you to many people for bringing it to my attention: 988 works. We have more people still with us because of it. I'm glad they're here and I'm glad you're here. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/s...

I literally had to e-yell at my last (non-autistic) partner that I liked him, and when he said "Nice" without any other indication of feelings one way or the other, I had to e-yell AGAIN for confirmation, saying "Sir you have to invite me in like a vampire before I have a stroke"

I think the thing that upsets me most in the "Klay Thompson Ain't Shit" situation is that it reminds you that some of you worst enemies can actually be the people that say they love you the loudest. He named a fucking BOAT after her & still cheated. Bum ass beige bastard 😒

It's rare these days that I have a a customer do something at work that shocks me, but apparently I was overdue for a truly heinous one. Cuz WHY would you ask for the bathroom key and think I'd let you take your UNPAID comics in there with you??

keeling over of natural causes on live TV immediately following your staged assassination attempt would actually be pretty good writing

Every time I forget about this shit & someone reminds me, I feel like I get flashbanged with rage

OOOOF

If your girl is a hottie just go ahead and get her some Flowers w a card that says “fuck Klay we are good!” 😭

naming a boat after a woman just to cheat on her, and that woman being megan THEE stallion. klay thompson you know you have 30 minutes?

"Lex Luthor stole FORTY CAKES?!"

Not to be parasocial, but Klay Thompson better be thankful Spirit Bombs aren't real, cuz maaaaannnn

If you ever feel like you're a bad person or like you suck at your job, take solace in the fact that you've never yelled at autistic tweens with learning disabilities for having difficulties with your lesson plans!

You acting humorless and miserable does not actually make the authoritarians go away

Also, if they have merch, buy that too! The indie bookstore shirt has overtaken the band shirt in "cool shirt"-praise-received-per-wear, you heard it here first.

Your worth as an artist is not tied to lack of sales. Your lack of sales is, however, tied to the fact absolutely none of us have any money. You're NOT a shit artist. We are ALL broke, my dude.

16% of the world's population, or roughly 1.6 billion people, are disabled. Virologists estimate that the number of newly-disabled people is actually around 1/3rd of the whole world, based off of new evidence in the rise of comorbidities as a result of Long Covid. Fuck that overcooked hotdog.

just saw someone call Kash Patel “J Edgar Boozer” and need to lie down

last week @maxwellfrost.bsky.social and @lilsimsie.bsky.social hosted a stardew valley livestream to educate viewers on how they can help oppose saudi arabia’s purchase of EA. the conclusion to this saga might feel inevitable, but they still believe there’s time to stop it

It's genuinely embarrassing to live in this timeline. Other timelines need to come and beat our asses for letting the world's most unfuckable dweebs destroy all known life on earth.

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

“I went ahead and made a browser extension. Kill Yr Substack intercepts every Substack link (even on custom domains) and redirects it to `archive.is`. Substack's numbers go down. You still get to read the thing tho.” what a great workaround 🤗

Idk what's sadder: The idea that there was ever a time that 8-25k/year was considered "BIG MONEY", or the fact that most people in comics never see anything close to that on any level for any amount of work

First Naomi, and now Bianca's pregnant! 💖 I'm so happy for them, but GODDAMMIT Y'ALL QUIT GETTING KNOCKED UP PLEASE THERE'S ONLY A HANDFUL OF BLACK LADY WRESTLERS IN YOUR COMPANY AS IS 😭 /j

Every time I see some dweeb talking about what they'd do if they had a time machine, I wanna call them a liar to their face. If EYE had a time machine, I would literally only use it to furniture shop. Fuck saving the world, I'm furnishing this house, & making a Designated White Person pick it up.

When they said "AI will increase productivity" I didn't realize they meant "AI code will crash the social media networks on which I procrastinate, forcing me to actually do my job"

I'll never understand (predominantly straight) couples that enjoy embarrassing each other in really cruel ways & the posting about it. I thought y'all were supposed to like each other??

"That pot you found in my pocket isn’t mine. I’m just holding it for a friend who has glaucoma."

This is disturbing. No one should have to forfeit their sensitive biometric info to enjoy a game or a show in New York City. That MSG is using their invasive surveillance tech to track and discriminate against a Knicks fan who is trans is absolutely appalling.

My annual reminder that if you need to buy a window A/C this year do not simply buy the largest model you can afford. Energy Star has a sizing guide. Why do you want an AC that is sized for your room? Because an undersized A/C won't cool well and an oversized A/C will leave a space humid

There is a truly violent amount of pollen in DC right now. It feels like the trees are trying to waterboard us with their splooge, & I'm so miserable 😭

i simply find it a little hard to believe that shortly after every website implemented ai code and fired a bunch of engineers they all started breaking constantly every single day but its not related to the ai code or the skeleton crew

Great article. It’s especially frustrating being in games (often a white space with a white audience) and having folks attribute linguistic disconnects to not being online enough or young enough when it’s really a lack of understanding of Black slang and/or AAVE.

Next week is 10 years since we lost Prince. Since then, the community of Prince scholars has come together regularly for academic symposia on his legacy and works; you can watch for free this weekend if you'd like to join us online or in person at NYU.

Leaves! #animalcrossing #art

Was Janelle supposed to pick up a bunch of John Wick-ass fighting skills on the way back in time or something??
