It’s a great era to lose respect for people.

Geno Smith to the Jets to Geno Smith:

losing a primary by FIFTY points because you backed ICE should tell everyone where the zeitgeist is right now

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

I’m not often exposed to mainstream news media but I am this morning and the fact that they’re treating this as normal makes me want to scream

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program. Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program. A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.

If you’re a Democrat in Congress who is considering supporting Trump’s illegal war in Iran, please consider self-immolation instead.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

"Instead of the State of the Union, we're watching The Muppet Show...!" "...But in this day and age there's not much difference!" "OH-HOH-HOH!"

thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol

Creatures from the deepest sea

Every news story is now “State Senator Randy Pervert (R-Springfield) was indicted on 8 counts of lewd behavior with a child under 12 and has been put on paid leave from his two jobs as Border Patrol liaison and youth pastor at First Presbyterian (PCA) where parishioners say they were ‘blindsided.’”

some of you are looksmaxxing when you need to be booksmaxxing

if you hate or love "maxxing" please be advised that guys my age think it's funny as hell and will shortly be using it approx. 500 times a day. you will be cringemaxxing and despairmaxxing but no amount of cringe & no depth of despair will stop the guys my age from usemaxxing "maxxing." just fyi

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

So many great graphic novels for kids coming out this year and I'm over the moon that AMELIA SHADOWS AND THE NEW HEAD GHOST is included on Comicsbeat's list! Coming out in April from me and @papercutzgn.bsky.social!!!

I think people just look at anything women and girls like as frivolous.

"Haunted" #IceOut #IceOutComics

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

It's been really difficult to end my Monday emails with the usual "Hope you had a good weekend!" when lately each weekend brings a new set of horrors If you get an email like this from me, please know it's with the caveat of: "in spite of everything"

me? oh yeah, fine. I'm doing great. just sort of left my body for a second to observe the current moment and my place in it from a high angle, sort of like what I imagine you'd see from a spy satellite? but one that can look through time? but yeah, I'll have that report done by the end of the day

Fun fact: Your local bookstore is doing more to protect you and your neighbors than Amazon is.

If you're in New York, please take two minutes right now to call Governor Hochul and tell her to support and sign New York 4 All, which would prevent state and local agencies from collaborating with ICE. 518-474-8390. This is important.

Literally everyone who even vaguely knew what a tariff was said this when they were introduced! You don’t need a team of economists to analyze the situation — no one who lives in reality was confused by this!

2026 continues to be shitty! An AI policy that says anything other than “AI sucks and we do not use it” is a failure, but it’s a special failure when a library-adjacent product promotes AI-generated slip. Boo! Boooooo!!!

By now, asteroid 2026 Dreadstone has impacted the Indian Ocean, sparking a firestorm not seen on this planet since the K–Pg Extinction Event. Most people just want to be with their families. Here are three ways effective business leaders can leverage targeted KPIs to turn tragedy 😔 into triumph 💪

Microdosing heart attack symptoms by being a comic book editor and checking email on a holiday

This year I’m going to be kinder, more positive, work harder, and put more faith in myself until the very first minor obstacle throws me off for the next 350+ days

December reading stats! Another fun month for reading!

Happy new year! Hope you got to sleep in a little.

I think every comics creator should internalize the fact that using a.i. for any part of your job not only comprises your work but it also fucks over every other person working with you. It's not worth it. Ever.

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Sorry if this is a bit personal but does this shit make anyone else feel completely fucking insane

On 12/18, the storage unit my girlfriend and I packed our whole lives into last year will be auctioned off. I’m trying to prevent that from happening. I’ve made a Spotfund and outlined the situation there. If you have a moment, please read and share the link below. spot.fund/8r5jg8wsc

Finally (!!!), we can announce our @madcavestudios.com/Maverick OGN, BEAT EVERY 1-UP! I can't wait for y'all to meet Princess Helia and her bodyguard, Sidra, as they try to take down Boss Gogo and his slew of hench wizards and baddies and do what the book says...beat EVERY ONE up!

Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact: TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.

Have you heard about the snazziest newspaper-format journal of comics criticism around? The Comics Courier Issue 3 Kickstarter is chugging towards it's end date on Oct 31 - make sure to get your pledge in today!

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors. ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart. ISILDUR: true

A lot of speculation about how things got so Stupid and Evil and I think one reason is we've collectively been too tolerant of Stupid and Evil for too long
