Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

Get to the store early, folks — new Vertigo is coming in hot.
Lots of end of day requests for Bleeding Hearts #1. Enough that I was compelled to order more before leaving for the day & every cover is back ordered. If you like @denizcamp.bsky.social, if you're curious about the new DC Vertigo, OR Vertigo was your trusted brand of choice, get on it if you can!

We always say these websites are machines designed to show you the worst things in the world, but let us never forget that real live ostensibly-capable-of-thought people hitting "quote tweet" are the critical part of the machine that makes it work that way.
i love it when a big account platforms some random asshole and starts a whole conversation about them when i, and everyone else, could have just never known who that asshole was.

Tomorrow's a big day at the comics shop for me. There are major releases from all three imprints I oversee at DC: Vertigo, Absolute, and Black Label. It's honestly amazing sometimes that I get to do this job at this level; thank you, sincerely, to everyone who makes it possible. Hope you love these!

The Wall Street Journal just illustrated the core argument of my book: a system rigged to reward capital over labor is one in which even full-time work no longer secures the most basic material needs.

This is the economic order that produces the "working homeless."

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

I've been to some countries where people live under military rule or autocracy. And without fail, one of the questions I get when they ask about life in the U.S. is whether it's true that Americans just let homeless people die on the street.
During freezing temperatures in Port Arthur, Texas, a 61-year-old homeless man was found dead in his wheelchair outside a convenience store.

He was wearing a hospital gown and no shoes. Authorities say he had been released from a hospital the previous day.

This is a diseased society.

Very annoyed at the people who decided to open the floodgates to online sports betting, it is absolutely a scourge. Great piece from Gabrielle Gurley on people spending hours a day on these predatory apps.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them
