About to go to bed, but for those who missed it: my latest comic, Requiem #3, is officially launched on Kickstarter!

Christof Bogacs @christofbogacs.bsky.social · 11h

GAHHHHHHH Requiem 3 is offically live!!!

Created by @davidhazan.bsky.social @philthepage.bsky.social and myself, Requiem is sci-fi horror for fans of Dead Space, Event Horizon and The Expanse.

Check the campaign out, and if you can, sling us some coin. It would seriously mean the world to us.

Requiem #3 - Sodom and Gommorrah

For fans of Alien, Dead Space and The Expanse. A crew with no memories try to solve a grisly murder before the killer can strike again.

The fact that @adlaim.bsky.social didn't DM or even '@' me on this hurts my heart more than I can bear.

"Cultivate in them, while there is yet time, the utmost graces of the fancies and affections, to adorn their lives, so much in need of ornament; or in the day of your triumph, when romance is utterly driven out of their souls, Reality will take a wolfish turn, and make an end of you” Charles Dickens

My unwitting strategy for getting through NYCC FOMO was apparently to have so much work on that I wouldn't have been able to leave my hotel room anyway. Past me is a genius.

I’m so damn proud of this series. I really think it occupies a unique space on the shelf. I hope now that it’s all collected more folks give it a shot.

I don't know what I did to deserve it, but my Insta and FB feeds are really wholesome now. It's just dudes wiping out (with minor injuries) on really dumb parkour jumps and really therapeutic Japanese omelet tutorials.

"The politics of envy" is their rhetorical power move. My mum always shuts it down beautifully with a curt, "Yes, you've got loads of stuff and we want it."

Bari Weiss introduced herself to CBS News staff today on the network's 9AM call, saying she wants to "win," which requires restoring trust to CBS. She also said she was excited for staff to get to know the Free Press, and ended her remarks by saying: "Let's do the fucking news."

20 nuclear reactors' worth...
But I'm sure all those shitty fake Man of Steel 2 trailers are worth cooking the planet for.

FT Edit @ftedit.ft.com · 1d

OpenAI is spending at a scale that even Silicon Valley can't quite believe, buying up 20 nuclear reactors' worth of computing power this year. But there are big questions around whether it can turn that power into profit.
