It's the Flash all over again. I was stoked about it and then they kept Miller and i just have never watched it. Fuck that guy

And the Supergirl casting looked awesome, Keaton back, but some hills just to high for me to climb

Uprising was so good

Leto is so bad

Wait Mr Beast is in it? Isn't he the guy that asked kids to volunteer to stand in grocery stores and restock and sales pitch his candy bars to customers?

They tell us not to go to college or get vaccines as they go to college and get vaccines.

Like watch what they do not the words they use

Honestly i will endorse it. If a parent had no ready to feed their child other than to steal the food, they should. And yes depending on the store the owner might be struggling. But children in any society should not be starving

Ya with GG out I'll likely just dump my manuscripts on self publish somehow and walk away. Like I'm debating the level of work I'm going to do when things go south so quickly

Is such a hard Rubicon to cross from doing it for the love of the game to being able to do it as like a real job, its tough when creating award winning art is a side hustle

Everyone is going through things they don't share with others, and our traumas are never as far from the surface as we may like.

Remember to support your indies to ensure the diversity they add to your industry cannot only be a labor of love but a labor of bill paying

Greasy Grass Press will no longer be publishing Idaho Jack, sadly the company will be dissolving due to the very common struggles indie publishers face

I am thankful for them signing me as an author and letting me learn as an advisory boardmember

@weyodi.bsky.social its time for our next adventure

Someone i thought was cool using this and my boundaries skeet to center their disgruntlement with me and talk shit is sad.

Like let me go from your head I'm just over here dealing with my own melancholy.

She always reminded me I spend too much time focused on failing to move pebbles and forget how quickly and how often I've successfully reshaped mountains

I think it's because we knew our hair would be with her.

And she still protects those wigs a decade later and remission going strong

It's funny i was raised that every piece of hair must be accounted for and destroyed to protect from bad Medicine, yet when my friend got cancer it was the first thing several of us did together was donate for her wigs.

Oh no!! Damage needs cared for. I'm so sorry that a choice like that was taken from you

I cut my hair once to donate it to a friend, it was such a rough world to not recognize myself and wait for it to grow back

Some nights my mind turns to Niece D and I'm glad I'll have the weekend to roll the memories around my head and out the other side.
