We wouldn’t have the Star Wars books we have without Carol Titelman and Lucy Wilson getting it started and keeping it running when it mattered the most in the early years.

Random fun fact of the day - women are the reason #StarWars #publishing exists. And the reason it has been so successful that it could endure as it has for so many decades.

(I'm an expert on this stuff)

so, this weekend the great Dr. Demento did his final show. I could write a lot about the importance of his show to me & my friends when we were 12 and 13. there's more to it than "he played funny stuff" and "his show is where @alyankovic.bsky.social got his start." 1/3

One of my life’s great accomplishments was getting one of my parodies played on Dr. D. His show introduced me to a lot of obscure and forgotten artists from the early 20th century, too; he’s a true musical historian and preservationist.

Things have gotten so bad in Portland Trump is threatening to send in a Ribbit Response Team.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The father stuff was not planned, changing one leg of a love triangle to a sibling relationship is a major change, and stop liking your own posts.

Vader being Anakin was nowhere until the second draft of Empire, which is why Obi-Wan had that awkward “certain point of view” retcon. Luke’s sister was one possibility for the other but she was not Leia at the time, which is why they made out. And the number of Death Stars changed while writing VI.

Here’s the whole little triptych.

Day 9 of #Inktober: HEAVY. Not sure what Hondo did to annoy this Kowakian Monkey-Lizard, but I’m sure he’ll get out of it somehow.

Cantina Sounds: Star Wars source music @cantinasounds.bsky.social · 4d

Cody Matthew Johnson talks about his process for "translating" lyrics into an alien language (Myrran?) for the city of Myrra in Star Wars: Outlaws. Very cool stuff—we've come a long way from pulling random tiles from Scrabble and Perquackey for "Lapti Nek"!

1/3 yea! So Ive talked about this a little bit on podcasts, interviews, and the like, but effectively the hope was to not necessarily use an identifiable existing in-universe language - I didn't want to take players out of the intentional immersionof the cantinas by hiding too many easter ...

This forms a little comic with yesterday’s STARFISH.

Zooming out, we see Hondo is pointing his blaster at the Ishi Tib in the previous panel for yesterday’s prompt, STARFISH

Day 8 of #Inktober: RECKLESS. Obviously I had to draw Hondo Ohnaka.

Day 7 of #Inktober: STARFISH. When I hear "starfish" I think "Ishi Tib", and here's one who doesn't want to get blasted by whoever's just out of frame.
