Tag yourself I have no choice but "Cleveland Z"

Literally buying one copy of a book at your local indie bookstore can mean the difference in whether they buy future books from that author.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Holiday reminders: - If someone has a new relationship, they’ll tell you. You don’t need to ask. - If someone is pregnant and they want to share that, they’ll tell you. You don’t need to ask. - If someone’s body has changed, they’re aware. You don’t need to point it out.

'Instead of “How are our attitudes being reflected in TV and film?” I think the better question is “How is pop culture attempting to shape and mold attitudes?”' -- @ninametz.bsky.social

AAAHHHH! Its incredibly heartening and thrilling anytime I see the series resonates enough with someone that they take the relationship to the next level 🤍👕✌️

Got my copies of the Stardust The Super Wizard anthology, my dear old buddy @jamesasmus.bsky.social & his 2 kids writes a short I drew & colored! Thank you to James, Van Jensen, & everyone else involved, the book looks great!

I think about this a lot.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Anyway, we’re roughly $2,150 and 36 backers away from this goal with just 5 days left…tough? Yes. Impossible? No way Help us get there now: www.kickstarter.com/projects/zac...

AAAAAHHH! AMAZING custom puppet of Spellya Spellington from vol 2 of #SurvivalStreet by one of the coolest supporters a book could ask for 💖 Blown away and so delighted #ComicConLA

Doing #ComicConLA ? Come say hi in #ArtistAlley table #K45 in the central walkway 12pm on I'll also be with #SurvivalStreet co-creator and frequent collaborator Jim Festante

This post about an old issue of Batman (#222) made me realize comics lost - in an era of constantly rebooted titles need to be "Important!" - random, silly, or just interestingly self-contained single-issue stories - which is so much of what used to be 'Comics!' www.instagram.com/p/DO2ASSUAYP...

Like, I get that taking a popular TV host off the air is hugely representative of the problems right now, but the censorious efforts of Republicans are literally trying to get trans people's existence labelled as pornography and punishable by 20+ years and $100K fines for literally existing online.

Side note: Alien Earth is damn good

If I were anywhere near this, I'd go. So if YOU live nearby, please go on both our be...halves? behalfs?

First they came for Bill Clinton, and I said, yes, that man is a sex pest, get him

Oh the irony of comics retailers telling a customer that they don't carry the series the customer was looking for because it "doesn't sell"

I dont know man, I can imagine some folks will want to do that when the revolution comes

Digital copies are out! And you can still order that! samidoonanthology.com Stickers have arrived and physical copies will be going out ASAP as I can get 'em packaged and shipped! The leftover stock'll go up online after I've started clearing some out!

There is, as of right now, no coverage of this protest on the WaPo website or in their @washingtonpost.com feed. So, if you (you reading this) want people to SEE this protest, you must share it.

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law. May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

This is why, if you're wanting to do comics, it's far more important to practice drawing comics than it is to practice drawing. The drawing comes with time and you get the time by getting opportunities to make comics, you get those opportunities by demonstrating storytelling.

How do Scottish people feel about Mike Myers basing half his career on performing tartan-face?

"Since 2023, the fast-food chain has introduced the technology at over 500 locations in the US, with the aim of reducing mistakes and speeding up orders. But the AI seems to have served up the complete opposite." I swear - toddlers learn their lessons faster than companies

Seeing the Disney logo pop up on a trailer before (unrated) Toxic Avenger is wild

"Liminal Fascist Space" is a great term for the teetering-on-the-edge-at-all-times vibe; it's hard to get any sort of footing from one day to the next on where exactly we stand; an anxious time but not a hopeless time.

"If we're forced to pay back all the stores we stole merch from it will kill our eBay business!!"

An excellent summary of one week on the path to dictatorship from Bill Kristol

When we reestablish rule of law in the US, one of the reforms we should make is a law capping CEO compensation (salary, options, etc) as a fixed multiple of that of the lowest paid worker (employee, IC, whatever.) If CEOs couldn’t make more than 20x the minimum pay, you’d see wages skyrocket.

“Some of the US’s lowest-paying large firms increased their CEOs’ compensation by an average of almost 35% over five years, according to new research. Their workers’ salaries did not keep up.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

H5N1 found in aerosols everywhere on dairy farms. Crazy timing to cancel $500Million in funding for mRNA vaccines. If we have another pandemic of a deadly virus so many more people would die needlessly than what we witnessed in COVID. Wild but true! www.scientificamerican.com/article/bird...

Actual day is tomorrow but family just brought home my cookie cake and I love it so much I had to share
