Wow. What a waste of a great character so far. This card is straight trash and has more ways to make it useless than useful. Hoping for a patch that makes him cool. #MarvelSnap

gAI art is bad because it's stealing labor.

stealing labor from art is easy because no one sees art as labor, they see it as talent.

they see it as talent because it's easier to believe they have a right to hate you because they can't stand they gave up and you didn't.

fuck them, pay labor.

Haven't had a birthday party in at least... 15 years? And haven't dressed up for Halloween since the Marvel vs DC party at work in 2019.

This year will be different. This year, Disco is making a comeback.

THEM: "What was your favorite part of Superman?"

ME: "There's so many great parts."

Even before his current vocalizations, he was absolutely the worst Superman. Behind Broadway Superman.

Me watching all the backpedaling and rationalizing happening on a different part of the internet. Of course they were all paid shills, sweetie. They just chose not to pay them for those other movies. It totally makes sense.

Worldview remains intact!

Nothing like watching the #MarvelSnap Bot "thinking" on turn 6, trying every possible card combination, before throwing the single card that can immediately turn the tide by playing the Arnim Zola that had no business in the deck.

Then loading into Monster Island to screw your Cerebro. *sigh*

@kellyarekayyeo.com OMG I SAW YOU OUTSIDE THE MATRIX.

That was cool. =) Sorry everything was so rushed.

This is so vile I don’t want to alt text it. Just know Dark Owl Publishing is run by someone who is extremely racist and talks about hitting protesters with cars.
The great @hillarymonahan.bsky.social just brought to my attention that this person is still around and running a press. Don’t support racists.

MARVELSNAP: "We pre-craft all of these decks and do not adjust them based on the game or cards we are facing.

ALSO MARVEL SNAP: "What... this is a totally normal set of cards to be together."

Best writing advice I've seen in a while. Gonna share this with my team on Monday.
If you're stuck in your story and don't know what to do next, just write a ninja attack. It doesn't matter if your project is a nonfiction look at the history of yarn, by writing in the ninja attack your brain will say "no, that looks really wrong, this is what should go here instead..."

Finished the first pass of blocking out BattleMex #3. Which is great!

Now I have to cut 3-5 pages. (Which is fooey for me, great for Stefano) But here is one of our new stickers too.

"I wasn't representing anybody except for me... and doing good."

Saying Superman is hard to write because he's so powerful frames every conflict around power levels and metrics. But the magic of this character was outlined quite clearly in 1978.

I'm glad people are catching on... but honestly, a lot of us knew this already. They are just admitting it now.
Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners?

TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

I have a 786 day streak on #Duolingo and I didn't hesitate to delete my account over this shit. I can't do a lot to fight this, but I won't throw my money at them.

Excited for my first appearance at Jetpack Comics in New Hampshire for #FCBD! I hear there is a Diablo IV comic available too. 😈
