Cap out here teaching the kids that you can just be a girl

Some kids talking to Captain America. One says "It could happen! We could become a team of superheroes!" Another says, "We can be anything, Captain America!" A third says "Girls, too!"

Who's up transing the yoga

Panel from Captain America's Bicentennial Battles, in which a man is hanging in a contraption by his ankles and saying "Of course, you know little of Trans-Yoga--and the mental benefits one derives from the proper application of physical positioning..."

Got back from the con and started scripting immediately because I cracked a story beat in my head today. Broke the outline for the story's second issue too.

People who think the idea of "give me ideas" is something genuinely creative people want have literally never experienced the absolute EUPHORIA of a brainstorming breakthrough, either solo or with a human collaborator. They don't understand what is happening when artists create, on a basic level.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

My situation with ECCC is similar and the one year I sprang for a hotel I definitely had a LOT of fun
