the first piece of published culture crit I ever wrote was about dave chappelle punching down on trans folks, gay folks and women. that was in 2017. first trump era. he made a conscious choice to court conservatives and now he’s thought of as one. I don’t feel bad for him!

Apparently I lost my voice. A fact that I did not know until now when I tried to talk for the first time today 😑

My goal to not get sick all year has hit a speed bump 😔

It’s been a real banner year for “that guy who gives off those vibes? Yes it turns out it was completely correct”

I guess I got a little to optimistic that they would deny it. Forgot that we live in the bad place

Very famously that is not the case

For the first time in months this is the ONLY COMIC I have that is currently up for pre-order! The great news is you've got until May 4th to pre-order it and it has TEN stories from some of the biggest and best queer names in comics. MONSTERS IN LOVE! BUY IT!

To this day, since the original show, I have been disappointed that they nerfed her powers. But I love Kristen Ritter and god damn it’s good to see them fighting together

Back when I wanted to be a screenwriter (and now honestly) I desperately wanted to develop the fourth season of The Lost World

Not really one that I believe but one of my favorites has always been that the Titanic didn’t sink, it was the Olympic made to look like the Titanic to get the insurance money

Can’t remember the last time I rooted against Godzilla in a monster fight #Monarch

This is beyond wrong

Another artist Marvel let go today was Visual Development Director @andyparkart.bsky.social ! Which is wild as Andy is a staple! Andy was responsible for the visual direction of the Guardian of the Galaxy movies, the designs of Black Widow, Scarlet Witch, Shang-Chi, latest Thor, and so much more!

well... THAT's pretty eye opening, actually, Mike, to just say it out loud like that. Did that sound different in your head?

*Cullen Bunn

It’s like forcing two puzzle pieces to fit together

I get so overwhelmed I was going to say “by” and then something but nah. I’ll just leave it there lol

Made it to 50! How exciting! Although I think the whole TNG Mirror Saga could have been Mirror Broken and Mirror War and that would have been totally fine. The middle two volumes are kind of useless

Anyone know anything about the Minky Woodcock or Gun Honey series’ from Titan Comics? I’m down for some spicy noir but something about them feels exploitative and bait-like.

This genuinely might be the most pathetic thing I've ever seen A pocket square?? You're protesting the active demolition of free speech at an event held by the people with the sledgehammer and dynamite by happily attending but wearing a pocket square that WON'T EVEN BE READABLE WHEN WORN???

62 million views a month. Huh. Publish the names. Hack the site, do an AshleyMadison, and publish the names. Anyone reading this who doesn't think those men deserve to be skewered is a piece of shit. share.google/vpOigCoN5R4u...

I honestly thought it was going to be worse 🤷‍♂️

Finished all of Shrinking 😭

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

I was at work when this went up so I’m gonna watch it today!

We just have to make cancer our friend?

You ever just have one of those days where you’re like “lol god I’m so annoying 🥰📿”

Man, I was hoping to get another hit of that good theme!

I hate the enshittification of every platform. They wiped out competitors, then hiked prices, cut jobs, and use terrible AI vibe coding. The same playbook as the U.S. gov: dismantle local programs, promise better systems, then gut those too claiming bc it helps undeserved BlPOC & poor ppl.

“When” Fuck this guy

You that Mandalorian theme from Ludwig Göransson is an all-timer. Every time I see that trailer I get hyped

I really thought better of him 😔

Caught up on the Absolute universe 🥰 Even made a super totally not controversial ranking of the series 😅

Call me old-fashioned, but when I can't decide what I want to order I just ask the barista what their favorite drink is and try that one out. You can just *talk* to people. People who work at the store are humans just like you. We shouldn't be using chatbots to empower extreme social anxiety.

My BIG birthday is on the weekend, but help me celebrate by stopping by The Blathering LIVE birthday celebration. Live calls, surprise guests, rants, and more! Live at 5 PM PT this Thursday! --> youtube.com/live/OYqiTOT...

Took a quick glance at the producer’s Wikipedia page and he sure seems like an interesting guy! Can’t believe someone like this would be a founder of Acme AI

One of those headlines that just gets hilariously worse as you read it

Remember when Illumination did a whole commercial about stupid GenAI is, comparing people who use to the minions? Really earned a ton of respect for that one from me.

A little concerned that the reviews for The Mummy aren’t out yet

And now, the FULL TRAILER for THE TERROR: DEVIL IN SILVER. I’m going to say this trailer “rips.” It might even be “a banger.” This show has taken four years of my life. You finally get to see it May 7th. From @victorlavalle.bsky.social, Karyn Kusama, Ridley Scott & me. LOOK AT THIS CAST!

Everything goes up except our wages 🙄

I like the idea that Godzilla keeps evolving

1000 workers. Last year they posted net income of $94.4 billion which was 150% over their 2024 earnings. 1000 workers... This shit should be illegal.

This was a really rough day for the industry. My heart goes out to the talented and creative people who lost their jobs and are being abused 😔 I wish the world was better

Holy shit, this Avatar situation is fucking bleak. Not only is it depressing that the film is just online now, but the things people have been saying… What the fuck man

Disney made 94 billion dollars in revenue last year.

Devastated to hear the entire Marvel Studios’s Visual Development team has been let go. This was my old home but more importantly, the home of so many incredible artists and peers. Absolutely heartbreaking 😔 Sending all my impacted peers my love and support. Please reach out if you need anything!
