Looks like American air travel is already fucked and getting more so, in the wake of Duffy’s 10% reduction announcement. Hold onto your butts.

So this piece of my past sold at auction yesterday for $3,500.

Scott Edelman @scottedelman.bsky.social · 4d

I have no idea who's owned it all these years, but the first page from the first issue of my Captain Marvel run is currently up at auction. If you'd care to be the new owner of this Al Milgrom/Terry Austin splash from the distant past of 1977, check it out! comics.ha.com/itm/original...

The splash page for a story titled "Asylum Earth" depicts Captain Marvel blasting Rick Jones into the Negative Zone.
CAPTION: Picture of a Kree gone mad!
CAPTAIN MARVEL BALLOONS: "By the Great Pama, Rick Jones! Your childish prattling and witless acts grate on my spaceborn soul! I have had enough!
RICK JONES BALLOON: "No, Captain Marvel! Not into the Negative Zone! Why are you doing this to meeeee!"

We just wanted to say thank you to everyone! ICE agents keep lying under oath, and you’re the reason the truth is coming out.

Your videos and documentation have been crucial in revealing the truth behind those claims.

It's fascinating. The deficit of one sector emerges as the surplus of another. Basically, 30% of wealth is held by the top 1%, 67% by the top 10%, and just 2.5% by the bottom 50% of households. One sector rises to the extent the others sink.

Not politics. Just accounting.

I'm very excited to sign a new contract for my next book with @uncpress.bsky.social. 🥂

My working title comes from Doug Rossinow's Politics of Authenticity. That title will almost certainly change. I'm deep in the clarifying stage, so maybe don't ask me for an elevator pitch at the moment....

Not only was Sandwich Guy acquitted.

He was acquitted on a misdemeanor after Jeanine Pirro failed to get an indictment for a felony assault charge out of a grand jury. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Jury finds D.C. ‘sandwich guy’ not guilty of assaulting officer

Sean C. Dunn admitted he flung the hoagie at a federal agent. His attorneys called it a “harmless gesture” of protest as Trump commandeered D.C. police.
