I'm not being flippant or mean when I say this, but how does anyone believe that either of these two people are smart and worth listening to? This conversation makes my skin crawl. Elon Musk is a barely coherent doorknob and Rogan seems like the most gullible child on Earth.

The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

For graphic novels, especially adult genre fiction, it's incredibly helpful to review it online, talk about it, recommend it to a friend—adult fiction in the graphic novel space is difficult to place, and nothing convinces readers that they'll like a book more than the personal testimonial.
If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

Mark Kelly is a genuine American hero, as is his wife, and it should be completely clear to anyone who actually gives a shit about this country that Trump's attacks on him are fucking crazy. Anyone picking sides against him is wrong. Period.

She paints a picture of an industry that all too often ignores bad actors until those bad actors threaten them financially.

The only comic character RFK resembles is a Chester Gould DICK TRACY villain. He looks exactly how he sounds, which ain't great. This is a deranged description of him.

Udo took a chance on my rinky-dink festival in Vancouver back in 2000 - he went on TV interviews with me, carried 35mm film prints up stairs, went to get me coffee and even live-dubbed Giancarlo Giannini's voice when BLACK BELLY OF THE TARANTULA showed up without subs. RIP Udo, you were a star 🌟

Udo Kier was a delight to work with, and he loved telling shocking stories to see how you'd react. When he filmed "that moment" in CIGARETTE BURNS, there was a lot of laughter on set because he was enjoying himself too much. Dude was a straight-up icon. Those eyes. Those eyes. #RIP and much love.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.
It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.
