A comic book writer with a lot to say that hopefully means something in these trying times.

"Pay no mind to the REAL hero of the evening. Nobody cares about the socialist." These centrist establishment hacks don't know when to quit.
Asked about Republican attacks on Mamdani, Dem congresswoman Debbie Dingell replies: "I'm going to focus on the election of Abigail Spanberger, who is clearly a moderate, as is Mikie Sherrill. Both women that had strong military and national intelligence background..."

Do liberal tears have enough nourishment to feed a whole family? Asking for the Republicans who will starve without SNAP benefits.

At last, Stills of the Night is now available on GlobalComix (Link in bio). A nice little gothic one-shot just in time for Halloween? Unthinkable, I know. The comic will be available for free on my Substack on November 19th. But in the meantime...

Just watched the fourth episode of #InterviewwiththeVampire, and, I must say, it is very good. But it did remind of me of the Sofia Falcone episode of #ThePenguin.

If you see this, QTP with a Pokémon that shares the same first letter as your name.

Sidenote: Not a lot of Pokémon that start with the letter J

I just can't believe it's Slotkin of all people calling attention to this. I'll take it, but I'm surprised.

I love how two days ago I was told Tylenol is bad and now I'm seeing an influx of ads for Advil on social media.

I'm convinced there is a Doctor Who to DC pipeline for actors.

Peter Capaldi:
12 Doctor -> The Thinker

Jenna Coleman:
Clara Oswald -> Joanna Constantine

Michelle Gomez:
Missy -> Madam Rouge

Joivan Wade:
Rigsy (Flatline and Face the Raven) -> Cyborg

Also if you haven't seen his series Legion which is unlike anything on television before and after. Plus, Fargo is obviously a must watch.
This alien series is brilliant. Noah Hawley so that goes without saying, but damn.

I'm so confused why everyone is mad at people like David Pakman and Brian Tyler Cohen. What a mystery.
David Pakman tells Rep. Ritchie Torres: " When people ask me, who do you see right now as the sort of progressive that you like to be at the head of this movement going forward, I think of you."

When did movie theaters decide knowing where to sit was a problem? Even in a near empty theater I'd like to know where to sit.

This was tough. There are three songs that I constantly refer to as my favorite song. Specifically, Heroes by David Bowie, Wicked Game by Chris Isaak, and The Chain by Fleetwood Mac. After much consideration and listening to all three just today, I can definitely say The Chain is my favorite song.
Got a fave stones song? Beast of Burden is my top song on Spotify - every year. I listen daily on repeat while belting out “You keep on tellin me I ain’t your kinda man! Ain’t I rough enough?! Ain’t I tough enough? Ain’t I rich enough, in love enough?”

Watching these influencers outed by the Wired article go on the defense and attempting to smear Taylor Lorenz' journalism. It's giving, "Pay attention to that man behind the curtain."

They would rather pay an ungodly sum of money to have people, metaphorically speaking, jerk them off than actually appeal to the wants and needs of their constituents. These people are utterly pathetic.

One of the most infuriating things about listening politicians who refuse to do anything about gun violence is they continue to call the shootings “incomprehensible,” or “unthinkable.”

Mother fuckers it’s not some abstract concept it’s happening every other fucking WEEK! Just comprehend REALITY!
