problem with the internet is that you think "olivia nuzlocke" and you search and see other people have beaten you to it and then you hang your head in shame. you got to "olivia nuzlocke" on your own and people are gonna think you stole it from a guy who wrote a webcomic you used to read 20 years ago

if I had to characterize the literary style used by Jeff and his pals over email, I'd say it's giving "Letter to London Central News Agency from Jack The Ripper (authenticity disputed)"

Finally set aside some time to catch up on the first two episodes of The Comics Code podcast by @graemeburk.bsky.social, diving deep into the story behind Siegel and Shuster's creation of Superman. Thorough in its research and gorgeous in its production. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Got a reply that was like "you must be desperate for attention if you're posting this," and it's like, no. My problem is I can't shut up. That's a slightly different thing
