This was where Omnicorp Headquarters was in Robocop. I cannot emphasize how much we need to protect Dallas City Hall, it is art, it was designed by I.M. Pei and it must be protected!

NEW: I wrote about Dallas City Hall. Designed by I.M. Pei, it's an incredible feat of architecture that was meant to embody progressivism and a new start after the JFK assassination. At the end of the month, city leaders could vote to tear it down: www.chron.com/culture/arti...

One of Texas' architectural masterpieces could soon face demolition

The building was designed by foundational architect I.M. Pei.

Extra funny when you think about how Sinners, which features Michael B. Jordan gunning down Klansmen in broad daylight in slow-mo, is the 10th highest-grossing R-rated film of all time - higher than The Hangover, 300, Logan, John Wick 4, etc....

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Freida Parton says she did not mean to scare anyone when asking for prayers for her older sister, Dolly:

Freida Parton
“I want to clear something up. I didn't mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious when asking for prayers for Dolly. She's been a little under the weather, and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference.”

Kody is one of the best people in comics. Full stop.

You won't find anyone kinder, friendly or more supportive of the comics making community. He's been one of my most reliable friends in comics for years and someone who well and truly deserves all the support in the world. Lend a hand.

Kody Okamoto @kodyisover.com · 1d

So just once again reiterating, if you wanna be a patron of my art, every dollar of your support goes really, REALLY far in making a tangible difference in my life.

They’re just gonna do a little lite slavery.

In addition, the new rule allows farm employers to charge H-2A workers for their housing, which was not allowed before. "It's a way for employers to continue to house workers and also charge them, and bring down effective wages," said Marcos Lopez of the Labor and Community Center at the University of California, Davis.

The physical release for Kamudo vol 1 by Akira Himekawa is out now! Letters by me, translation by David Evelyn 💖
The cover is matte with spot gloss, and the book features color pages!!

Kamudo vol 1 laying on a wooden desk. The colorful cover features a demi-dragon boy holding a sword.

Kamudo 1 flipped open to a color page, laying on a wooden desk. The color page shows a young man standing in front of an erupting volcano, with the sound effects “GWOOO” and “DM DM DM DM” around him

Kamudo laying on a wooden desk, opened up to a black and white page. The page shows a group of dragons standing around a large shell that’s cracked open. In the next panel, the baby with a dragon hand who emerged from the shell is wailing “WAAAAAAHH”

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them.

Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!”

Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.”

Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face.

Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.
