"Meet Joe Author. A horror writer in a world without horror. Where the frights are familiar, the terror without passion, and the characters lack any traits that would discomfort the average Middle American. If that sounds like a story you want to read, then you're living in the Twilight Zone."

your daily reminder that hope is a floatation device- grab it with both hands 🖤

That's a helluva way to start one of the most beloved comic strips of all time, but Schultz knew what he wanted to do

In 1945, the Allies faced a tricky question: where to hold Nazi war criminals until the trials. A run-down hotel in Luxembourg was quickly converted to a prison ("Camp Ashcan"). The hope was to keep the nature of the prisoners secret. In May 1945, this failed, and almost turned into a disaster. /1

I have a theory that Spock's human mum was autistic as fuck, which is why she got on with Vulcans.

working with a few avian character commissions and was thinking to myself: surely we could throw in a gag that's more optimized for beaks,

regular reminder that the people who created your favorite characters were largely marginalized individuals with antifascist views

Sabrena Swept Away by Karuna Riazi Sabrena's life is full of struggles already. The last thing she needs is an other-worldly adventure. Life is, alas, not considerate of a teen's preferences. jamesdavisnicoll.com/review/far-a...

Mamdani will go down in history, but not only for the reason that he's likely to win in November. It's his refusal to engage with the fascist mirrorworld's warped reality as his colleagues & other media do. His insistence on *staying here*, in the lived reality of his people, is the real triumph.

In the '80s and '90s, CJ Cherryh questioned and critiqued our assumptions about how gender is expressed and understood, creating science fiction narratives that reflect trans identity and experience. It's time for a retrospective. reactormag.com/exploring-ge...

Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling. I’ll start: you can buy an enormous TV from Costco for like $100 bucks now.

TO TRUMP: “A strong nation, like a strong person, can afford to be gentle, firm, thoughtful, and restrained. It can afford to extend a helping hand to others. It’s a weak nation, like a weak person, that must behave with bluster and boasting and rashness and other signs of insecurity.” ~Jimmy Carter

Lots of folks have been waiting for this one for a while. New submission call: CLAW Volume 2: Women in Power Edited by @runafjord.bsky.social and @deergrace.bsky.social This is a trans-inclusive anthology. Details here: baddogbooks.com/submission-c... #FurryWriting #FurryBooks #saphic #FF

My latest completed commission which took me the better part of August... I'm happy with the end result. Context: Aliens turn human volunteers into great blue whales to help the species. One becomes a dragon guardian.

OMFG. The next Ghost Recon game is going to be a hoot. Hmm. Come to think of it, are there ANY playable women in GR, CoD, ect style franchise games? Because at least going by the trailers I'm occasionally subjected to it doesn't seem like it.

If you see this, post a knight!

It's Labor Day in the US, so remember to enjoy a nice BBQ and seize the means of production for the working class.

God if you can hear me, I will draw sexy watto if you make it happen. I will join the holy army. Please please please please please.

So, the Orange Felon hasn't been seen in public since Tuesday, has no public events scheduled through Labor Day, and the couch @#$%er released a statement Thursday that he's "Ready to step up" if tragedy strikes. I know it'll probably add up to a nothingburger, but I can't help but hope a LITTLE.

My wife Tracy is trying to raise a $1000 dollars to combat Alzheimer's. She's already run 3 races for it, and is signed up for the Marine Corps Marathon in Oct, but isn't likely to run it because a hurt Achilles tendon. But she still wants to make her funding goal. fundraisers.hakuapp.com/tracy-day

I'm reminded of the bit from Star Trek (2009) where Spock calmly said, "Live long, and prosper," and you could absolutely hear the unvoiced "...and the horse you rode in on."

I swear to God it's a wonder our ancestors survived.

Not often I get wet eyes at the end of a painting video. SV: Man asks to commission an Ork model for his dad, who stopped playing in the 90s. His whole army was stolen, while working two jobs to raise kids. They paint an ENTIRE ARMY to give to the dad at the end. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOVE...

I know exactly diddly squat about Pokémon, but as the father of a neurodivergent kid, this absolutely wholesome

I really enjoy the parts where she’s like “You got the whole ‘They served KFC at a racist party!’ from a false narrative!” then immediately said “We served KFC. It is delicious but APPARENTLY white people can’t enjoy KFC now!” Followed by “We do NOT have a 9,000 square foot mansion. It’s 12,000!”

Ugh, Alzheimer's can fuck right off. MiL is fading fast. Just the difference between this week and the last is terrifying, and she's only 76. Meanwhile my mother turned 95 today and just keeps rolling along.
