They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.
These are the people who are willing to go on the record.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.
Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.
And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.
Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.
It's a power grab.

Missing Tom. I only met him once in person, but I checked the Comics Reporter every day. I was lucky to be one of his last interviews. He was such a devoted champion to all comics. What a singular voice. You can actually still read my interview with Tom here: www.comicsreporter.com/index.php/cr...

Convince me this book cover isn’t AI. This is from a big publisher and huge author. They could have paid a black artist. They could have paid anyone to actually make a decent cover. Instead they went with slop.

Eddington is a very weird movie. I like Ari Aster, but what an uncomfortable movie. There is a Dan Clowes cameo at the end for some reason. That was fun.

A tanker? We just doing straight up piracy now?
Trump: "It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. As you probably know, we've just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela. Largest one ever seized actually. And other things are happening."

I’m going to be at the new NW Museum of Comic Art @nwmoca.bsky.social giving a talk today from 1-3 PM. This is a good excuse to get out and check out the museum if you haven’t yet. I’ll have some giveaways and lots of artifacts to share.

Hilariously insulting panel experience at NCTE: I was invited to talk about place/setting (cool! I rarely get to talk about craft!) and then before the panel the moderator explained "I know you're a wild card for this panel but I thought you could talk about TRANS RIGHTS in different places."

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Ex-president to start serving term in 12 sq metre bedroom in police base in Brasília after time for appeals elapses
Brazil’s former president, Jair Bolsonaro, has been ordered to start serving his 27-year sentence in a 12 sq metre bedroom in a police base in the capital, Brasília, after his conviction for plotting a coup.
The far-right populist, who governed Latin America’s largest democracy from 2019 until 2022, was handed the punishment in September after the supreme court found him guilty of leading a criminal conspiracy to stop his leftwing rival, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, taking power. Continue reading...

I don’t get a page rate. I get an advance and a hope for future royalties. I’m making royalties on the last six books I made, so that and school visits keep me afloat. If I crunched the numbers to see how much I’m earning per hour based on advance alone, it would be very depressing for you to hear.
The one about comic book page rates – again. News flash: Comic book page rates are STILL stagnant, after all these years, and for indie cartoonists it's even harder
