If you haven't heard anything about the unfathomably couragous anti-Hamas protests in Gaza right now, you should probably update your information diet to include outlets and influencers who do a better job telling you what's going on.

Back when I was in Marvel Direct Sales, I had a couple of bits of involvement with Peter's HULK run.
The first was when he was looking for ways to increase sales, and I said that doing a mini-series-within-a-series was looking like a popular idea, so why not do like a four-part story that we can...

@kurtbusiek.bsky.social I did a re-read tonight of Incredible Hulk 378, originally pub. circa Xmas 1990, where the Hulk tussles with the Rhino, who's just trying to get through a rough holiday. You're listed in the credits as "Santa's Helper." May I ask what the nature of your contribution was?

Gonna gush about my fave #Superman story today.
Superman Smashes the Klan, by @geneluenyang.bsky.social!
A period piece story about the Man of Steel that pays direct attention to the racial prejudices in 1940s America.
Genuine, heartfelt, charming, and altogether perfect. This is Superman.

הזדמנות נהדרת להסביר לך ולקהל הקוראים מהי האמת מאחורי "מעשה בחמישה בלונים", אחת ולתמיד. למי שעדיין לא קרא - זהירות ספוילרים.
כל הסיפור הוא למעשה מטאפורה לתאוריות פיננסיות-פוליטיות של סוף המאה העשרים ותחילת המאה ה-21.

בואו נדבר על זה שיש plot hole ענק ב"מעשה בחמישה בלונים" - הבלונים הם קלירלי בלונים רגילים, הבלון של אורי נופל על שיח, חתולתה של סיגלית תופסת את הבלון שלה, אבא של רון מנפח את הבלון בעצמו.
אז איך לעזאזל הבלון של אלון עף לשמיים??? הוא קיבל בלון הליום? אמא של רותי דפקה קטע? מה דה פאק??

This is a very good visual for how talking about artists helps us. If you’ve commissioned, bought from or worked with an artist, please talk about it. It helps us a lot.
Last year, an author mentioned my shop on her substack. It changed my income so drastically that this is the spike of orders from that *one* mention last year. Word of mouth for an artist can change everything.

Reading TTRPGs (or reading about them) is a good and worthy thing, but your relationship to the hobby and industry dramatically improves when you actually play them.
It’s just good for your life in general. Spending 3-4 hours playing a game means you’re not spending that time feeding an algorithm.

This is probably the major legacy of Gamergate at this point: the creation of a parallel economy of rage-baiting grifters continually trying to spin up “controversy,” generally aided by media outlets who are equally interested in farming attention. It really fucking sucks
There's no "controversy" over The Witcher 4, it's just gotten picked up in what is now a cottage industry of YouTube-based outrage content farming by people who have zero actual investment in or understanding of the things they cover multiple times a day, every day

To prevent online brain poisoning you should have to have some human interaction before you're allowed to post. If you quote a twitter screenshot you have to borrow a cup of sugar from a neighbor. For every 10K followers you have to explain yourself to a classroom of middle schoolers.
