What's a panpsychist's special move?

We have a cover for next year's Children of Strife!

Good fishing in this trans-dimensional portal.

A comic about my crested gecko, Spurt.

I posted to Twitter for what looks like the fifth time this year yesterday. Checked back today and the post has 39,000 likes, 3.2k retweets — and 9 replies, and 4 quote tweets. I'm sorry folks those numbers ain't real. Bordering on a statistical impossibility. It's gotta be almost entirely fake.

GUYS I have an exciting think happening in about 10 days and it is KILLING me not to be able to announce.

Hey mathematicians:

Separate from whether you think it's possible or likely, how do you think you would be psychologically affected if there was a superhuman machine for both proposing and solving theorems? Meaning basically that, vis-a-vis mathematics, you were like a Go player after AlphaGo.

Huh. I'm apparently having a business lunch at SDCC.

Look at me, being all fancy and professional.

Hey all, I've started a petition over on Change. I'm asking that some profits from the next Avatar film go toward supporting Indigenous Futurist artists and projects. I hope you'll take a moment to sign and to share. chng.it/JdXwNNDTCF Wado/Thanks! #IndigenousFuturism #NativeSky

A tiny blep

On the way back from Chipotle, juggling two large iced teas— one for an afternoon of writing, one for the event tonight— I stumbled on a Barnes & Noble’s, signed up all what they had. Maybe fifty books? Some sold in the signing. Had a gimme pen, but it worked.

Hey! Do you live in New York? Do I make you laugh?

Great! I have a show in NY this Sunday at Second City in Brooklyn!

D&D that night? Bring the whole game!

Work? Call in sick!

Pull up!

@aptshadow.bsky.social I just finished Shroud, and it was incredible! Thank you for putting out such great work. I'm so grateful for your presence in the SF/fantasy genre.

I'm curious about how you envisioned the shrouded as you wrote, though. What was your inspiration for their physiology?

Thx!

Whilst a lot of it was worked out from first principles I suspect unconscious recollection of Jansen’s Strandbeest creations played a part.

cartoonist pep talk

@aptshadow.bsky.social absolutely love the days of shattered faith and the whole of Tyrant philosophers so far! It feels left open ended.

Are there any plans to continue the world or just wishful thinking on my part?

Thank you for all your wonderful creative expression! ☺️

Oh man. That’s a nice feeling.

Daughter’s first film she sat still through for the first time, JUST NOW was Lilo and Stitch.

Officially given the title of cinema buddy.

So proud.
