Very much love doing the Doughboys Book, our Animaniacs meets The Simpsons vibe but very much about real people. You can probably drive through Los Angeles using this map of Susser floating on a smell. Art by @fredcstresing.bsky.social and @megcasey.bsky.social.

Layoff news really sucks. I don't have anything sage to offer but solidarity. If any affected PRH/S&S folx want to chat, I'm totally open. Personally, I was laid off from my editorial role last October, and honestly, it completely shocked me. While everyone always thinks it might happen in

PRH having a slew of layoffs just months after S&S did theirs is just so disheartening. It’s hard not to feel jaded. I feel so bad for all my editorial colleagues and for the fact that Dial BYFR has been completely shuttered. We need books. Children need books. And those editors deserved better.

One of my early books, "The Official Handbook of the Bowieverse", with art by @kennykeil.bsky.social, is now FREE to download here. Go do it. You'll love it whether you're a Bowie fan or a degenerate (comics fan).

I apologize to the 3 Ninjas fan community for the harm I've caused. youtube.com/shorts/bS_sJ...

historical detail I can't help but bring up: by some accounts, the event that instigated the British soldiers to open fire on Crispus Attacks and the rest of the crowd in the Boston Massacre was a soldier being hit by a snowball

I played a delightful game of ALL-CARDS with @geoffreygolden.bsky.social using a deck pulled from the Strange Beast Tarot, @jameybash.bsky.social's Tarot of Sorts and Alexander Burden's Tarot Obscura!

When I tell you I had this idea like two year ago and just drew it in under an hour lol anyways long live BIG C!!!!!!!

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

ALL-CARDS is fully funded! Thanks everyone!

🎯Black folks been knowing.

why are all the YA readers on threads, i don't want to be on threads, we need more kid lit book buyers on bluesky :( :( :( :(

i shouldn’t give this piece any more attention than it has already garnered but i feel like it is worth pointing out some flaws in the argument/unquestioned assumptions thread 1/

Our second featured horror film by a black director this month was Zoe Kravitz's Blink Twice and thanks to the news, it is UNFORTUNATELY RELEVANT. Join the crew @definitelyvita.bsky.social @amandameadows.bsky.social & @octopushearts.bsky.social for a wild one! shows.acast.com/progressivel...

I hope New Yorkers will challenge Mamdani about this. Too often, people feel they need to be absolutely for or against a politician — ignoring their missteps or throwing them out with the bathwater. You can like and/or believe in someone and still challenge them to deliver on their promises.

Hey artists! Are you gonna be at ECCC? Whether you’re tabling or just attending and looking to meet up and find other artists, let me know and I’ll add you to this starter pack 🙂 The list caps at 150, so it’ll be first come first serve to join the list! go.bsky.app/3jfHCsi

If your video game has a main boss, and I beat that main boss, I want to see credits. I don’t care if that’s the true ending or not. I want to see a bunch of developer names scroll after I finally defeat the jerk who’s been taunting me all game and gave me wrist cramps!

Happy this landed in our radar from @geoffreygolden.bsky.social - we just backed ALL-CARDS: The Trading Card Storytelling Game on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/dev... Now to convince him to adopt "Golden" from KPop Demon Hunters as his official theme song - courts be damned!

To my shock and amazement, I have strong opinions on the new Sonic the Hedgehog audio drama!

Just published our episode on Blink Twice to the Patreon and set for release tomorrow. Remember: if you are assigned a doctor or therapist and they turn out to be Kyle MacLachlan, you may be entitled to monetary compensation...and you should leave immediately.

Almost all people in power are writing dangerously unhinged and ridiculous fictions.

This Zinequest project ought to be funded by now. Super cool idea that incorporates random trading cards you crack or have lying around the house (even ones not meant for gaming). Selfishly requesting you back it so I can play the game myself.

I don’t always hit the “Notify” button on a Kickstarter pre-launch page, but when I do, it’s a Kaiju postcard book game by Shing.

Check out our pal Geoffrey's new game on Kickstarter!!

hey, so @geoffreygolden.bsky.social is one of my fave designers in the field of Impeccable Vibes and Weird Funny Stuff and this game that uses...well, whatever trading cards you've got - is gonna be worth your time!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dev...

It's been a joy editing this because Geoffrey is the funniest game dev in the biz. You gotta back this unique storytelling game that lets you upcycle any cards you have lying around!

I just launched ALL-CARDS on Kickstarter for Zine Quest! - TTRPG style collaborative storytelling - Light TCG battle mechanics - Compatible with cards you already have lying around! - Pokemon, Magic, Garbage Pail, Tarot, even ALF cards! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dev...

Hello, looks like independent publishers should beef up our books coverage. If you're into the idea of joining the @flaminghydra.com collective and writing a book review each month (800-2000 word range), please send us your ideas and some clips to [email protected]

Hell yeah. My favorite GN of 2025!
