I'm sure there was a run on it after it got canceled, but it had already been recalled, so it couldn't have amounted to much.

My single Red Hood issue was the 15th best-selling comic of September, like out of all serialized comics in America. Incredibly funny.

This is your periodical reminder that if you're over 40, you should get yourself tested. You should check if you're actually a fan of folk metal. It's simple. You just watch this vid and if you feel anything in the realm of OH DAMN or HELL YEAH, the diagnosis is positive:

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

"Oh dears" is a way to call attention to the tiresome fact that in some quarters any criticism of Newsom is seen as saying mocking is not a valid political tool. That's absurd. Of course it is. It's that his method talks to nobody but those who already want to hear it.

Aster Vérité @aster-verite.bsky.social · 1d

OH dears, is your way of calling for his tribalist followers to start the dog pile, because his views were challenged and his was lightly mocked.

Gary Sherman’s Dead and Buried (1981) is an absolutely perfect little horror movie. Sort’ve a sleepy Re-Animator in Murder She Wrote’s Cabot Cove, a sweet spot between Messiah of Evil and The Fog just oozing with rural seaside evil and mood to fucking spare. Small town apocalypse at its best!

“This is a man who’s suffering dementia,” said @govpritzker.illinois.gov. “This is a man who has something stuck in his head … He doesn’t read. He doesn’t know anything that’s up to date. It’s just something in the recesses of his brain that is effectuating to have him call out these cities.”

Gov. JB Pritzker says President Trump deploying troops to Chicago due to ‘dementia’ and obsessive fixations

Democratic governor’s comments came as he continues to oppose President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago area for deportation efforts.

In power, the GOP is just Little Bill Daggett. They don't think deserve this and and they're building a house and they're the big man but, well, Eastwood already told that story and hit on the heart of America and its always been closer to NWA then Lee Greenwood.

privateideation.bsky.social @privateideation.bsky.social · 1d

Because Americans don't believe themselves to be followers. They SAY they're patriotic but they also don't like taking orders. A lot of them might hate all kinds of people but they hate their boss a little bit more. The GOP doesn't have a narrative that works when they're in power.

Maybe if they had a Leni Riefenstahl they'd have it sewn up, but they don't. The closest they have is Eastwood and even he doesn't seem to have a taste for their particular brand of conservatism. They've confused mass media (which you can bully and buy) with mass culture, and they're hitting a myth.

It's a sign of disrespect. They aren't the majority but they're trying to post their way into it and it...isn't working. The NFL, for all its faults, follows the money. Last year it was Kendrick, this year its Bad Bunny. They thought they'd rolled up media but the big money continues to be brown.
