Another day without a Woolen trade.

So many brutal injuries around the #NFL this year. Could it be that they've figured out a way to exceed on-field human potential with their off-field training regimen?

Giant swaths of teams are going on multi-week, near IR, injured status. It's hitting young and "old."

A good way to find people I might be interested in following is to search specific hash tags.

@neonichiban.bsky.social, what are your plans for subscriptions, either to individual comics or TPB?
I'd love to be able to set and forget on series I know I want to read in perpetuity.

It was good to listen to you guys chat and catch up on California legislation. Thank you both.

If you RSVP, I suggest you never use your real name or email address. There are plenty of email alias generators -- ProtonPass is one -- that limit exposure and ensure use is limited to just that site.
For organizers, of course, different protocols need to be followed, but external anonymity is key.

Is a game where Sirhan Sirhan hunts down RFK Jr. a bad idea? Chased and devoured by a baby zombie bear?
What about trying to induce a heart attack in *rump with the ghost of Ivana?

Thoughts in my head...

How to celebrate the birthday of a close friend who killed herself a few years ago? Drink heavily? Cry? Feel guilt? Be angry? Sigh deeply and move on?

I'm thinking none of the above. I think of her every day and wish I could tell her about my day and talk horror films. I'll stick with that.

So what are we watching on #CriterionChannel this weekend?
I have Bergman's PERSONA queued up, along with something from their deep #horror collection. Still undecided there.

I could spend the entirety of any con just talking to artists in the alley. Most of them are under appreciated and all of them deserve the respect for their contributions to the industry (unless they're hateful people, then skip 'em).
Enjoy buying, supporting, and chatting! I wish I could be there.

Sad to see. It's not as if he's incapable of creating original artwork. Don't promise to meet a deadline if you can't do it without tracing.

This is what laziness and dubious ethics gets ya, kids.

People think not dropping bombs constitutes a ceasefire. When your weapons also consist of forced starvation, blockades of food and medical supplies, 24/7 drone surveillance, etc., we're not at a ceasefire until all weapons cease.

Ooo...Bellinger, #Mariners. A good, reasonably priced outfield acquisition, maybe? You need more offense from your OF.
Get on the horn.

Go ahead, dude. Make your AI movie and see whether or not all of us content gobblers dig it or not.

Blum has exposed himself to be, once again, devoid of compassion for the industry that makes him his money. He's incredibly insulting to artists and film goers alike.

New 3D snake model's first test print. It's an Eastern Foxsnake. I finished sculpting it yesterday and this is it after some cleanup and a coat of white primer. #SciArt #NatureArt 🐍

Pretty sure that was what they were going for. It was too close -- the walk, the way he looked in suits, the skin -- for it to have been accidental. That was my takeaway, and I loved it.

A guy who works in our mailroom 3D printed a full Lumon computer and accessories and it's on display. Genius. I want one.
