today's MONA in MEMO (the comic strip) #comics, #monalisa, #thelouvre open.substack.com/pub/andrewal...

Good morning! andrewaltenburg.substack.com/p/memo-645-m...

Mona is starting to spiral #comics, #monalisa, #thelouvre, #MEMO open.substack.com/pub/andrewal...

In this madness, I continue to make comics as a form of resistance open.substack.com/pub/andrewal...

The mood was a mix of anger and joy at yesterday's No Kings in NYC - but I was feeling sullen, sad, and exhausted by everything we've gone through these past 9 years... and yet, by the end of the march, I was at least slightly re-energized by the strength and dedication of the other marchers. Onward

We are not fighting what we hate, we are fighting to save what we love

The only acceptable kings in the US: King Vitamin Burger King King Kong Elvis

we must be the 'one too many'. "And know this: the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this. Try."

Good morning! Here's today's MEMO (the comic strip) - #batman, @dcuniverseonline.bsky.social @dcunited.bsky.social @dailybatman.bsky.social #comics andrewaltenburg.substack.com/p/memo-642-b...

Ok, when I first saw this, I thought "omg how did I piss off Mamdani?"... but whew, it's just directed at Cuomo - We don't live in NYC any more so can't vote but if I could, I would vote for Mamdani - partially bc I sick of Cuomo's bs but I think Mamdani has ideas and an energy that the city needs.

Second both those recommendations, and would add film critic, and Hallmark Christmas movie aficionado, @aduralde.bsky.social, as both podcaster—Don't miss his "Christmas Movie Minute" segments on Maximum Film. Plus, he has a new, updated edition of his book, HAVE YOURSELF A MOVIE LITTLE CHRISTMAS.

These are scary times, and it’s okay to feel afraid. The challenge is learning how to respond instead of retreating. This piece offers insight into managing that fear and transforming it into courage, understanding, and tangible steps forward.

seeing lots of administrator complaints on both blue sky and substack depresses me. ugh.

Over the weekend we were in Fredericksburg, VA and I stumbled across the beauties. :)

do. not. cave.

I am so unhappy that it appears that there will be Mac software updates weekly. I must be the last to know this. I suppose it gives someone a job but geezus #apple

Ask me anything andrewaltenburg.substack.com/p/todays-tru...

what did Tylenol ever do to deserve this much ire?

The Rapture? In this economy?

Favorite 10 TV comedies, in no particular order Big Bang Parks and Recs (the Johnny Karate episode alone puts it on this list) The Good Place Frasier Mary Tyler Moore SOAP Friends Designing Women 30 Rock Community (this one surprised me but was surprisingly consistently great despite cast changes)

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

Conan O’Brien speaks out about the Jimmy Kimmel suspension:

Good morning! I was cleaning up my desktop this morning after doing the Tahoe upgrade and found this from June. @kashana.blacksky.app - this still makes me laugh (and cry, of course). :)

open.substack.com/pub/andrewal... Tonight's True Story - about traveling to Philly and what it means to be a Friend of Andrew :)

I wrote this some years back and return to it now as a reminder to myself of what's really important in life. If it resonates with you, too, all the better.

Just out of a screening for A BIG BOLD BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY - it’s exquisite and sad; I loved it :)

I know its unlikely that Andor will win outstanding drama series but it is one of the very best series Ive ever had the pleasure of watching - truly one of the greats! #emmys

Im not wild about the gimmick of the donations based on a timeclock, but admittedly it does give the evening a sort of urgency usually only seen in a middle aged man racing for the bathroom - I dont entirely hate it :) #emmys

congratulations to Jeff Hilllet on his Emmy win!!

This. This. This.

Me: Can I have one of those blue milkshakes that symbolizes Grimace’s blood? McDonalds Cashier: (offended) We believe every beverage symbolizes Grimace’s blood

I will now claim that I was an FBI agent anytime anyone brings up anything mmm questionable from my past. Like the years I had a perm. It was to take down the highly dangerous ammonium thioglycolate syndicate. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
