Hello, new followers! I'm a freelance comic book editor, currently working on MONSTRESS from Image. Previous projects include TWO GRAVES and MOTOR CRUSH, also from Image, and about a decade ago I was an assistant editor on a whole bunch of X-Men books. I'm always on the lookout for new projects!
Torrid sending me an email about their new "mint intimates." Call them mintimates, you cowards.

Some thoughts (and a HILARIOUS dogshit AI MTV tribute video) www.esquire.com/entertainmen...
MTV Is Still Alive. So Why Does Everyone Think It Shut Down Last Week?
Our ability to tell fact from fiction—even when the facts are right in front of you—is nearly gone. This is not going to end well.

Since the news is awful, I want to share a bit of brightness: the incredible trinket tray @allreb.bsky.social made for me with their own two hands. People creating art and sharing it with loved ones is so necessary.

Lovely day in Mamdani's New York!

@stevedangle20.bsky.social @adamwylde.bsky.social I love the pod and am having a lot of fun with today's episode, but bisexual women are still bisexual while dating men. It's not super cool to claim someone like Dove Cameron is queerbaiting.

The Gay Harlem Renaissance exhibit at the New York Historical is great!

I love the Hughes brothers, but otherwise Men's Hockey Team USA is just...so incredibly unlikeable. And it's not like I'm feeling especially patriotic these days. I'm not sure I'll be rooting for them.

I'm going into NYC for lunch and a museum with friends, and so far I've lost (but then found!) an earring and discovered the train I wanted to take is cancelled (but the next is in a half hour). Mixed results.

My mom got hopeful (yay!), my brother got wolfish (sure, that's fun), and I got...yeasty.
Take a screenshot of this GIF, and whichever new word you land on is YOUR word for 2026.

Let's. Go.

Love this era of the Internet where literally at least once a week I have to try to convince my mother that something else she read online is a scam and/or snake oil.

Starting up Wicked: For Good to show my mom.

If Elphaba is green and fighting against people who are using yellow to commit abuse, does that make her a Green Lantern? Or does her inherent anti-establishment vibe prevent that? Discuss.

I just watched Spirited for the first time and was shocked by how much I liked it, considering nothing the director, co-writer, or songwriters have done before has interested me in the least.

As long as I'm home for the holidays and hanging out at my brother's house, you all get pics of niece and nephew cat.

My mom is 69 today, so I got to explain "nice" to her.

I'm only in the parking lot of the Menlo Park mall on the Monday before Christmas already think I've made a critical error.

My niece cat under the tree, for those who need it.

Independence Day. At this point, I'm not sure aliens can do anything worse to the White House.
Friday the 13th. 😑

Why is the Strands puzzle of all places promoting pseudoscience?

I couldn't remember the word "theremin" and had to Google "electric wee woo instrument."

Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.
