I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I know it's a little counter to the tension we rightfully feel, but my friend #KimJoy 's new book was released last week... youtu.be/6mKYcmRd7pE?...

This is pretty cool.

The Government is now shut down, but apparently nobody called the school in the Bronx that had come to the Capitol for their tour today, so they're getting the treat of a lifetime since AOC agreed to give them the tour herself!
I’m loving this for all of them!

My friends, a merry band of horror comics creators. We had a blast at L.A. Comic Con.

Maybe. Regardless, there is no possibility that a Mark Rylance action figure would be the one kids were clamoring for.

Derek McCaw @fanboyplanet.bsky.social · 9d

That was the only one I could think of that might have… but I’m also pretty sure the dream was following another in which I’d seen a talking Rylance action figure. And why the heck am I dreaming about Mark Rylance?

I dreamt last night that I was shopping at a Sears and they had signs up for a special 50% off all Mark Rylance toys. And I was mad because there weren’t any. I woke up and thought, has Mark Rylance ever been in a movie that had action figures?

Add "hypocrisy" to the list of words they don't know, right alongside "shame."

So if the Rapture happens, will I still be able to use the Find My app to locate my wife’s phone? I have no belief that I’m gonna get scooped up, but she’s pretty good, so maybe…

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

Pretty worried. I hope I'm overreacting.

I really enjoying running reviews from #MarkGelineau in his guise as #PulpArcanaStudios toy photography. His photos are great; his evaluation of action figures top-notch. fanboyplanet.com/pulp-arcana-...
