Image: The torso, arms and head of a nude dark-haired woman covered in witchy, glowing tattoos lays in green grass on a bed of autumn leaves as sunlight shines upon her visage through the dying trees. Her right arm covers her breasts as she eats a juicy pomegranate that spills juice on her hand, her chin and chest. Editor names in the bottom left corner are stacked as follows: Falco, Calamia, Abounader.

Many good signs on #NoKingsDay, but I liked this one a lot. 💛
The back of a crowd at No Kings Day protest in Olympia, WA. Many people hold signs that say, “Freedom Not Fascism” and “Gonna Rise Up.” The front of the Capitol building sits at the back left—only the columns can be seen. In the foreground, a woman holds a sign that says, “Love your neighbor.”

~Spoiler-free review~
I loved Tron: Ares so much!

As a Tron fan, I went in with high expectations and couldn’t be happier. It had a fantastic cast, enthralling visuals and cinematography, and the soundtrack by Nine Inch Nails immersed me in the grid.
10/10 will see it again.
Poster for Tron: Ares movie. A red and black light cycle (motorcycle from the grid, a digital world) sits at the head of a black and white city street. A biker, Ares, has his back to the audience and his head turned. Ares is dressed in a black armored suit with red lights running up and down it. A semi-transparent red cloud comes off the bike as if it has just entered the city from another world, smearing the building nearby. The tagline at the top says “No Going Back” and underneath, “Tron Ares”. The border around the poster is black and the border around that is thicker and lit up red and says Regal Now Showing.

I got my copy of Unseen/Unheard: Disability & Neurodivergence by @ckcarpenter.bsky.social @rebelmusecomics.bsky.social @anasabdulhak.bsky.social and more!It’s beautiful and I’m excited to dive into it! 🤩 Cover by @skyepatridge.bsky.social 😍
A persons head but just the nose, eyes and hair peeks up from the bottom of the cover. Above and in her head is a semi-jumbled medley of her thoughts, which contain trumpets by her ears, pill bottles, overflowing laundry basket, final notice bills, a calendar, stacked dirty dishes, and speakers blaring music. It’s quite colorful, featuring red, pink, purple, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple moving from one side to the other in a coordinated way.
