All these so-called strong men bending the knee to Trump…while pretending they are not really terrified “soy boys.” We see you.
the $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades
always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

One of the add'l problems with the strangulation of paid journalism in the US is that there are literal areas of coverage that are dying off. I look for knowledgable people are specialized areas of publishing all the time but there is no one to link to, no one to question, no one left to write.

WIP- Inks and flats, not final colors

Hey, old pal. It’s been a while.

A trip down memory lane the next few months. Revisiting Detective Comics for a short run as well as briefly reuniting with my old partner in crime Joe Kelly on… something Amazing.

I relate to this so much it's painful. But I think we've honestly reached that point in journalism where we need to start hiring our own lawyers (I have) and, more importantly, unionise. We're very much on our own now. Let's find a way to be independent together. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw5_...

But billionaires are killing everything good in journalism. They are not our saviors and never were. Read and support independent and local news outlets. Local news these days IS national news - look at Minnesota and Texas. We have to support these outlets.

Individual reporters and writers are still doing incredible, essential work at some billionaire-owned outlets. And some of those outlets still are some of the only orgs with the legal teams to best protect investigative reporting. So you'll see some of those journalists on some of these lists...

Huh. I think this is the first winter I’ve experienced where my internet router crapped out in addition to the power outages, lol. The problem is my mobile’s hotspot doesn’t produce a strong enough signal to access WP and WBD Screeners. Time to get a new router, I guess.

The most interesting pattern I’m observing in the fan reviews for Matt Fraction’s Batman is that fans invest more in characters than individual runs, hence the complaints about inconsistent characterisation. I believe it.

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact

I'm Diane Darcy. I'm currently writing my horror anthology, The Nightmare Theatre, on Substack. Each new story covers a different sub-genre of horror, including gothic, maritime, and slasher horror. My favourite horror movie set inside a home is Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse. #HorrorWritersChat
Welcome to #HorrorWritersChat

I hope you've grabbed a snack and a drink in a cosy spot.

Let's begin.

Q1: Introduce yourself and the horror subgenres you write.
Then, share your favourite horror story/movie set inside a home.

I think lawyers who have represented Epstein victims should consider developing a safe whistleblower programme for survivors to anonymously submit the names of the abusers and any evidence they have. From there, lawyers should reveal the identities of co-conspirators. www.youtube.com/watch?v=07MC...
