80s -> 50s - Back to the Future, Happy Days, American Graffiti, Star Wars, Indiana Jones
90s -> 60s - Wonder Years, Lost in Space, Flintstones, The Adams Family, Mission Impossible
00s -> 70s - Starsky & Hutch, Shaft, Dazed & Confused

The most frustrating thing for me about our cyberpunk dystopia is that we didn’t even get the cyberpunk aesthetic. We out here breathing toxic air & losing our job to robots in some fucking wrangler jeans I’m SICK

Gift link to Kyle MacLachlan's essay on #DavidLynch in the NYT.
"It’s why he never wanted to explain his work. He wasn’t trying to be surly or obtuse....It’s just that explaining his art after the fact seemed antithetical to the very point of making it."

Time for my annual reminder to cartoonists that WHAT you choose to draw in a panel is often far more important than how well it’s drawn.

A problem with Affirmative Action discussions that leave us perpetually on our heels is that we accept a framing that disregards the fact that it is our current status quo that provides unearned opportunities to unqualified people.
Just look at all the mediocre mfs in charge. How they get there?
