Each silent worshipper seemed purposely sitting apart from the other, as if each silent grief were insular and incommunicable.

To be in the club you have to have and demonstrate skill to be in the club.

If you cheat, no one with the skills, who put in the work will respect you or your output.

You cannot cheat your way in.

This is not unfair. This is you being a coward and getting caught.

Write/Draw/Act your own work.

Thinking this is wrong and untenable isn’t radical.

Thinking it isn’t, is.

"In a time of darkness, New York must be the light."

I think that this mayoral election is an important moment in American politics. If we see one of the greatest cities in all of human history, 8.3 Million Americans, thrive under Mamdani's leadership, and resist Trump, it can serve as a beacon.

Mark Harris @markharris.bsky.social · 3d

Mamdani talking lucidly and passionately about trans rights and history in a video that should frankly shame every politician who has hemmed and hawed and triangulated and said, "Well, but sports..." It's not that hard to tell the truth and stand for what's right. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEvV...

Trump: "The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called today, called me, and said 'I'm accepting this in honor of you, because you really deserved it.' A really nice thing to do. I didn't say 'Then give it to me, though.'"

Day 10: Zombie

I am a HUGE Frank Quitely fan, and I was, once upon a time, very into the Walking Dead comics

So I went with one of my favorite Quitely covers of all time, his issue 100 variant cover
