Holy shit, Billy Bat vol. 1 is on hoopla?!?

Ten years ago, If I’d read this thread on Twitter , I would’ve praised it as a horrifyingly absurd piece of flash fiction in the spirit of Stanislaw Lem. Now, I just wish I was drunk.

If you like DC Finest books, and can cope with massively long lists of optional circles to tick, this is the survey for you - it took me two attempts to manage just one in every numbered section. I’ve a headache, but if it gets me a volume of DC humour… docs.google.com/forms/u/0/d/...

Watching “antisemitism” become the Capcom code for monsters has been one of the shittiest developments of this era, hands down

Now that the phone can recognize my face, it’s time to get it to recognize the fat part of my hand and stop opening shit on the bottom right corner all the time

This will probably make me sound *really* high but I would love Ghostface Killah to do a cover of Van Morrison’s Madame George?

Just waking up to this tragic news and it took my breath away tbh. Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis was monumental for me as a young man. Taught me so much and really opened my mind in ways I hadn't imagined. Her legacy will never die. Rest in peace. 💔

Ah, this is heartbreaking—a terrific artist and inspiring person.

Happy Billy Bat is Finally Published State-Side Day, everyone!

My god, the first volume of Billy Bat is great. So glad I got to read it, finally!

This current stretch of American fascism is reviving an old half-sketch of a theory about Nazi Germany—the kink of a generation’s zeitgeist gets misunderstood and mashed into the DNA of the fascist agenda…which is part of why fascism pops up in a culture’s “decadent” phase.

Ah yes, Samuel Beckett's brief career in advertising.

Don't skip this series if you are at all interested in manga, Disney, crime, conspiracy, post-war Japan, the lives of artists, or metafiction!

I don't think we should outlaw heterosexuality I really don't I know it's got some issues, and there's all the toxic sludge that spatters on the rest of us, but people should be allowed to be straight if that's what's in their hearts maybe there should be a waiting period or counseling tho IDK

Billy Bat volume 1 is out in English now! It's my favorite comic ever, and I'm so grateful that I get to letter this edition alongside @lettererbrendo.bsky.social. We literally fantasized for years about stylistic choices we would make if we ever got to letter it, and I want to share about those!

Caught a preview screening of this last night and it is For Real. Definitely check it out when it goes wide next Friday.

What a terrific fucking cover. Sometimes I get impatient with artists who aren’t into the assignment, but Yeates takes a standard “POV of hero from a gun scope” assignment and practically turns it into a manifesto?

We’re both proud Jewish New Yorkers. But there are sharp & clear differences between us on Israel/Palestine. For example, Dan Goldman marched alongside war criminal Bezalel Smotrich yesterday, who called it “just & moral” to starve Gaza. I did not.

This is Bodie. His presence indicates the beginning of Pride Month. May his whimsy and steadfastness bring joy and confidence to all. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)

Went to the site, read www.darkertimes.com/why-horror-w..., subscribed for a year. Mentioning it in case it inspires you to do the same

Could not be more perfectly timed, wow and congrats!

Happy Pride! Folks on the asexual and aromantic spectrum are queer too. The A in LGBTQIA+ belongs to us, not allies. Being queer isn't only about who you fuck.

its OPEN!! We're so excited to offer this to a cartoonist who wants to chase their wild hypercomic dreams :3

Delaney Hall is a freaking concentration camp and @mikiesherrill.bsky.social is using the state police to protect it from protesters.

This is an ecological disaster, and the tipping point for it was passed 17 years ago

I saw a guy doing moral outrage that women sometimes read smutty romance in public It's letters. It's 26 letters arranged on a screen that makes your imagination think of things. When people act like it's indecent I'm always like "oh no the witch letters have formed the horny configuration!"

Nothing says I love this city and will put it first like threatening to fuck off if you don’t get your way If Pratt could or wanted to help Los Angeles no election defeat could stop him from keeping up that fight You think Zohran would have LEFT NYC if he had lost www.foxnews.com/entertainmen...

RIP Marcia Lucas, whose skill as a film editor and storyteller made a clunky independent film called STAR WARS greater than the sum of its parts. Rightly referred to as "Lucas's secret weapon," Marcia had an uncanny talent to see a film from the perspective of an audience--and won an Oscar for it.

The book is here its here more information on my instagram!!

Love The Masters of Evil throwing signs here. They look like, I dunno, a Deee-Lite cover band called “Supper Club” trying to promote themselves instead of an actual threat

Remember the good old days where people would intro a clip with a descriptor that was funny because it was it stretched the truth or distorted it for humorous? Jesus God do I miss those days.

it's friday and you deserve a big sandwich

God I miss the world before AI

I hate seeing AI infecting pioneers of their field who *know* how to do the work, and are just too exhausted to keep doing it and not taking that exhaustion as a sign to retire and enjoy their dumbass life and be loved until the end of time

I mean: ☑️ Obsequious; ☑️ Stole credit; ☑️ raised a lot of investment money and gave nobody anything to show for it; ☑️ Stripperella Good case to be made that Stan *should be* an AI mascot because he’s everything AI aspires to be

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

Oh man. This, this, this. It feels like my 401(k) is being fattened for the slaughter. Genuinely.

Finally it makes sense

I’m sorry

top 3 things you can rage against: 3: machine 2: dying of the light 1: that high and mighty king Agamennon, who, in his overweening pride, stripped the swift runner Achilles—greatest among the sons of Achaea —of his rightful prize of honor

This goes hard, you should read it

Moore would probably hate it; Gibbons would probably like it; Groening would probably wear it

I think it’s funny they made a machine that literally is a million monkeys on a million type writers and definitively proved that it can’t produce Shakespeare
