Round and Round (2023) This is one of the best Christmas (though it's actually Hanukkah) movies I've ever watched. It's charming, emotional, funny, and fun. Watch it! I loved it.

I was so lucky to have really fantastic sex ed from a great teacher in grade 4. But talking to my niece and friends with kids, they don't get any sex ed these days. So Scarleteen is important!
Sex ed is a notoriously underpaid field. Many sex educators work multiple jobs and don’t have access to employee health benefits. We're raising $40,000 to provide healthcare for our staff and volunteers so we can focus on what we do best: Supporting young people. www.classy.org/campaign/scarl...

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us.
I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.
May we live up to her example.
(so you don't have to go to Instagram)

This is one of the most recent things Alice did. It was, as ever, a clear, trenchant, messy, and powerful exploration of not just her own experiences but also society's expectations around disability.

Robyn's new song is good. If I was at Thought Bubble this weekend, I'd want to hear this at the midcon party. youtu.be/vitil9qMN6A?...

Christmas Above the Clouds (2025) A retelling of A Christmas Carol, predictable and over the top. But because of the story there's plenty of Christmas magic, even if it's kinda dumb. However. Tyler Hynes. King of the Horny Kiss. So horny. A national treasure.

Merry Christmas, Ted Cooper! (2025) This was incredibly charming. It gets better as it goes along and the characters have real, meaningful conversations about their feelings and miscommunications. It's also funny and sweet. And holy hell the kiss is horny. 🎄🎄🎄🎄/5

Every year I watch a lot of Christmas movies. I'm watching fewer this year, because I've been busy. But I'll make a thread of all the good ones if you want some recommendations. Christmas! 🎄☃️🎅

Had a dream Bang Chan from Stray Kids was flirting with me and then we kissed and he invited me back to his room but when we got there I spent the whole time asking him if he got breaks and if he was getting enough rest. Even in my dreams I am stressed about the well-being of artists. Lol

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

Our accountant double checked that my purchases at Lezhin were indeed business expenses. Excuse me! I work in comics! It is very important that I read lots of comics! Even ones where a wolf hybrid is knotting his adopted gangster father!

Found two lion's mane mushrooms today. Mushrooms have felt very hard to find in Ontario this season. Too dry? Maybe. But it always feels cool to find one of these fun guys.

Order this series. It's going to be very good...I almost said it's going to be a very good time, and like, it's not, it's gonna be heart wrenching and traumatic but also really beautiful? And there are also laughs? It's a very rewarding series to get into.
Let us tease DIE from @imagecomics.com, and talk about the dangers of an Amoral God Who Exists Outside Time And Space and/or me being given access to video editing tools.
DIE: Loaded. Out November 12th. Orders by Monday, October 20th.

I think one of my biggest regrets as I get older is that I wasn't sluttier in my youth. And I was REALLY slutty. But like, I could've done more.

This is hard, because I listen to music as moods and vibes, rather than artists. But, I'll give it a try.
