There are complicated, structural reasons for the recent surge in electric prices (maybe a future thread on that) and beware of simple narratives. But prioritizing the most expensive generation is, quite literally, the dumbest possible solution.

I don’t know if I’ve ever read anything quite like Attaboy, but I sure dug it lots. Comics came do so much in so many ways and it’s always so exciting to see someone find a new approach or application to the medium.

This is a funny idea but I will say that people who dislike Maxwell’s Silver Hammer (but like other similarly whimsical Paul jams) have been too easily swayed by George’s casual homophobia. “That’s a fruity song” and…just like that, you’re convinced? Come on.
i love the beatles. but they have some bad songs.
if you were making a malicious beatles playlist designed to turn someone away from the band, what would be on it?
mine opens with Rev 9 because we aren't fucking around.

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.
Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

I always loved making comics but got a bigger scholarship in music, so I eventually took that education as far as it could go and then immediately made a 232-page graphic novel in a fever. It became my first published work which led to more and more comics work and interdisciplinary teaching.

Creators - you should never be embarrassed to promote your own work. Excitement is contagious and the very nature of social media crushes discoverability.
