TIL that “Nixon maxxing” is a thing so now you have to know too. (Also this is really good and informative on Watergate and I’m gonna have to read @vermontgmg.bsky.social ’s book on the subject.) www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/jd-vance-a...

You’ve infected your last mushroom.

Emergency episode on Persepolis by the late Marjane Satrapi: sewermutant.com/podcast-marj...

"The goal was not to eliminate the government but to vassalize it, such that it can only exercise its authority by purchasing services from a monopoly provider." - Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed, re: SpaceX.

A few things that caught my eye: Tiny Dungeon Try Not to Wrestle Glowburn & Radscars

After the turn up around Knicks win folks were talking about how “this riot is proof that we could win if we cared this much about revolution.” Tell me why I forgot I made a whole ass comic on this theme? daygloayhole.gumroad.com/l/Sports

in case you missed it (because they hid it late Friday news dump) the DOJ approved the Paramount/Warner Brothers merger. Their deep, robust analysis discovered that letting a Trump-allied Oligarch dominate media results in MORE competition. so a huge relief in case you were worried

Our second episode on Grendel is up, this one covering issues 1-20 of the Comico series. I go a little Billy Joel talking about 1986 and why it's the most 80s year of the 80s. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bj8... sewermutant.com/grendel-part...

Todd McFarlane has done some uncool stuff, but one cool thing he did was donate a full page, inside back cover ad to Gay Comics in 1993. I think it was the first time I ever saw “gay“ used non-pejoratively. sewermutant.com/gay-comics-a...

@rosspayton.bsky.social I made a whole expanded version of Reflections in Tears I’d love to share with you. My email is [email protected] if you’re interested.

I misread the deadline for the FIST: No Funny Business jam, but here's what would have been my entry: A mission to infiltrate a weekend seminar at a New Age retreat center. Your cover story: You're a prog rock band just back from a tour in Europe. klintron.itch.io/morning-star

Want to lift this up a bit because it highlights how the conversation around masculinity is centered around a lot of racialized assumptions as well.

This is an iconic point.

I like to put the table results on little slips of paper and have players draw them out of a cup. Only taken time to do this a couple times, but it adds a little something to the experience. (The “accordion table” is a great solution too.)

I'm excited to share that my ENnie-award-winning street-level supers RPG is now available on RPG Trader. Also, it's on sale! rpg-trader.com/products/380... (wow, was that easy to set up!)

I'm cautiously optimistic about RPG Trader. If you don't know, it's a new platform for buying and selling rpgs just like DriveThruRPG, Itch, and Lulu. What's making me optimistic? It's rpg-focused. It does away with the 5-star rating system. It has coherent product categories. rpg-trader.com

RPG TRADER IS NOW LIVE. FOR REAL. 🔥 Tell your friends, fellow creatives, imaginary dragons and your followers! We’ve already got: ⚔️ 250+ creators 📚 1,500+ RPG products live (and more on the way) 🌍 A marketplace built for indie RPG chaos in the best way 👉 RPG Trader is officially open.

The lack of historical understanding among journalists is a huge problem for their reporting on politics, society, and the economy, and the consequence of ignorant journalists is an ignorant public. Everyone is easier to fool, & rightwingers exploit that.

Portland!! Tomorrow is the Archaeology Roadshow from 11-3 at Gateway Discovery Park. Its free! And family friendly. I'll be there with a table along with a bunch of other archaeologists from CRM companies and State and Federal agencies. Come learn about what we do and the arch of the area!!!

IMPORTANT: Dark Horse Workers United is *NOT* calling for a boycott of @darkhorse.com at this time. You may absolutely continue to buy your single issues, collected editions, manga, etc at this time!

ANNOUNCEMENT: The workers of Dark Horse Comics @darkhorse.com are forming a union. Please read our mission statement below. 👇 #DHWU

Random thing I forgot I wrote in 2014:

Do I know anyone tabling at Portland Zine Symposium this year?

Need something to listen to this weekend?

We started reading Grendel and just couldn‘t stop. Here’s the first part of our conversation about Matt Wagner’s sprawling masterpiece. We discuss Grendel’s early black and white appearances, and the classic Devil by the Deed. Plus a little on the legacy of Comico. sewermutant.com/podcast-gren...

“Carr is easily the most extreme, bigoted, captured, and censorial zealots to ever helm America's top media and telecom regulator. And that's saying something.“ Another banger from @karlbode.com karlbode.com/brunchlord-p...

So say we all!

I’m at Open Source Summit in Minneapolis this week. Say hi if you’re around?

Reminder to hit me up if you want to put something in the Sewer Mutant Cyberpunk Spectacular. Coming this fall, only in print.

I haven’t been posting enough cat pics lately.

OK, it's out now. I bought this and it also felt like stealing. Excited for The Mall. If you don't have it already, this is easily worth it for my all time favorite adventure: Stirring the Hornets Nest at Het Thamsya.

I bought this and it felt like stealing.

Cool thread on ways to contribute to open source besides money and expertise: www.reddit.com/r/linux/comm... Examples: Seed torrents of ISOs, merge duplicate bug reports, and turn on telemetry.

Check the relief bundle. Hoping it will help some people.

This looks incredible. Angelo Badalamenti score too. It’s on Kanopy.

Need something fun to listen to this weekend?

I’ll post more about this soon, but we also announced in the show notes we’re doing the first Sewer Mutant print zine, the Sewer Mutant Cyberpunk Special. Let me know if you want to contribute an article, art, or a short comic.

I can’t believe what a good deal this Delta Green bundle is … like every DG book for $15 www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/de...

So sounds like I can skip that Jacobin poptimism post?

I have been informed that ten years ago today - May 7 2016 -, Arnold Kemp of @goblinpunch.bsky.social posted the GLOG Happy birthday, GLOG

Anyway the obv takeaway comparing (Republican HHS head openly doesn't believe in germ theory) vs (Democratic SG fired for believing in sex education) is that Republicans are detestable. Which they are! But maybe another lesson: Democrats would lose less often if they weren't ashamed to be liberals.

About half way through, The Last Contract of Isako By @fondalee.bsky.social is every bit as good as I’d hoped it would be.

It's that time again! On the lastest Sewer Mutant podcast, John and I dive into Archie Goodwin and Walt Simonson's classic Manhunter. Ninjas before Frank Miller and Larry Hama. A healing factor before Wolverine. A grim 'n gritty reboot before Marvelman. sewermutant.com/podcast-manh...
