i think often about this discussion between Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hideaki Anno. it's one of the funniest ways anyone has ever talked about restraint vs self indulgence in art.

I'm still proud of this piece, "[the narrative toilet]," which I made for a collaborative poetry collection written with Nathan Moore. McSweeney's even featured it on their site.

Taroman: Expo Explosion revives Showa-era tokusatsu with grainy film, retro sets, and rubber suits in a playful ode to handmade craft.

Shocked and saddened to hear that Matt Haasch, founder of indie manga publishing company @starfruitbooks.bsky.social has passed away. His gofundme campaign for his medical and other expenses is still up - contribute if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-...

Heidi MacDonald reacts to @mattalt.bsky.social's story for The New Yorker about Shonen Jump and his time with "Kagurabachi" creator Takeru Hokazono, but from a US comics industry perspective, calling it "The Story That Should Terrify the American Comics Industry" www.comicsbeat.com/the-story-th...

I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field. There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.

No offense to this director, but the difference between Japanese and US animation has nothing to do with Disney and everything to do with manga, which he seems to forget is where ONE PIECE came from in the first place. The thing that makes anime special is manga. collider.com/one-piece-ta...

Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

CDJapan put out a statement regarding temporary suspension of Japan Post shipments to the U.S. Temporarily suspended shipment methods to U.S.: - EMS - Registered Airmail - Airmail Available shipment methods to U.S.: - DHL - FedEx - FedEx FICP

One correction - the Shonen Jump/Kagurabachi article by @mattalt.bsky.social is not included in this week’s print edition of The New Yorker, but it’s well worth a read, paywall or not!

This is the big one, folks. Good odds that September is going to look like late March 2020 except way worse because at least then you could still conceivably ship things across borders. apnews.com/article/us-t...

The exhibit is up through November 14, 2025 and admission is free! Big thanks to Manga Plus by Shueisha and @japansociety.org for hosting the art of Kagurabachi show!

Wondering how can enough people be fooled to make this worth doing? That's not the main way they fraudsters profit. These fakes are put on Kindle Unlimited, then bots buy, download the ebooks, and 'read' the required page count to trigger a payout from Amazon. Hitting every legit KU and KDP user.

My drawn statement on Ai as standalone from my now finished minicomic as syllabus for new liberal studies class! As promised this is shareable, printable - all from my site, feel free to make use of it, cite me & let me know how it’s received. Share away all here! spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-sy...

I taught art and when students would say "I just can't draw" I'd ask how much time they spent practicing. They would stare back at me blankly. Then I'd turn to the kids that COULD draw and ask them how much they practice and they were like "I draw all day every day" +
