The left is missing out on AI
As a movement, it has largely refused to engage seriously with AI, ceding debate about a threat and opportunity to the right

Ahem, you don't need Substack.
There are other options out there. I built my site for $33/month and own everything in an era when platforms come and go or say, accept Nazis.

Indie comics folks—distribution question:
I have a couple of new books coming out this summer and fall. It’s been some time since I last solicited through a distributor—who’s the “new Diamond” in comics or book distribution these days? 📚

Notes from a Hired Pen: No, reporters don't need your "consent" to publish a story - Jen A. Miller
Readers! On Friday, the Phillies released outfield Nick Castellanos. It was not an unexpected move. He just didn’t seem to give a shit anymore after he was benched for some unknown reason in June....

I've posted about alot of Black comic creators this month. Ted Shearer, who created Quincy. Morrie Turner, who created Wee Pals. Brumsic Brandon Jr., who created Luther. Jackie Ormes, Chester Commodore, & more. One thing they have in common is that none of their work is in print. #BlackHistoryMonth

Sad to hear that Shelly Desai has passed. He was always great as Hwang in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia and dozens of other roles. I saw him once on a Sunday at Buffalo Wild Wings, rooting for the Jets, I think.

Modernizing The Rockford Files: Still uses a desk phone, but it’s connected to a magicjack that’s also linked to an app on his cell phone, so he can give out number without giving out his cell number. Also, second product placement opportunity.
Modernizing The Rockford Files: instead of printing business cards in his car, he quickly codes a fake website on a laptop. Possible Wix product placement?
