Panels that go hard: “Somehow, the Nazi ghost never seems to die within man. It marches with insane pride… respecting nothing… taking everything and ignoring the pain of others. Cap sighs in resignation. He will have to fight for his shield.” Jack Kirby, Captain America #196 (1976). Be like Cap.

Jack Kirby had the first 10 issues of Captain America Comics bound. He sketched on the endpapers and gifted the book to his wife, Roz, and I hereby declare this one of the coolest single items in the history of humankind.

Interesting thread, media rights and producing lines have been fascinating and getting a lot of attention lately.
“Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter he earned high seven figures for the role, plus a seven-figure producing fee.”

I should do a blog post on this, but I’ll do a brief thread here, as it’s something in the comics industry that riles me up.

“No One Asked for This Reboot”: ‘Tron’ May Mark End of Jared Leto’s Franchise-Leading Days
As 'Ares' disappoints, insiders question whether the self-styled boundary-pushing A-lister can still be counted on to carry a franchise vehicle to the bank.

Unhinged take:
If you enjoy a piece of writing, you should read a paragraph forwards, then backwards in sequence with the paragraph before it, then backwards by word, and forwards out loud. Specifically out loud.
Break up the flow and examine the words, then experience the flow through your ear.
Tell me your most unhinged literary opinion, as a little treat

Been growing out a summer mullet that might stick around through fall, but I'm bad at taking pictures of myself so this is the first evidence that it looks good!

“Enshittification” was a term coined by Cory Doctorow, in 2022, to describe how the technologies that dominated our daily lives seemed to be all getting worse at the same time. Now, in a new book, he expands on the word that has become bleakly relevant.

AcademFic picked up a short story of mine, in which an evolutionary biologist ventures a novel hypothesis as to why nobody sees ghosts anymore. Give it a look!

Sounds like you should read this story to find out 😏
It makes total sense. Go to the clinic. Get tested. Get treated if you’re positive.

After all, no one wants to be host to that parasite, do they?

Do they???

That moment when you figure out a way to use existing processes with just a teeny tiny bit of excel to make a process go from hours to minutes... Big wins today folks!
