Now that Jimmy Kimmel has been restored, we need to make sure that we always remember that these companies are cowards and are vulnerable to loud disapproval
He looks determined without being ruthless. Something heroic in his manner. There’s a courage about him, doesn’t look like a killer.

I told my friends about an indie video game and they loved it and I also loved the game and then the game terminally glitched out on me and I was never able to play it again, ever, no matter what

Bug Wars is a comic that should be immediately optioned for a series on a streamer and I hope that this is received as appreciation not castigation

Don’t get mad at me—remember our fun and pleasant times together—but I have an unpopular position The comics that seem most like test runs for Netflix series are actually also pretty good as comics as well. I’m talking about the Image stuff and those sorts of mainstream creator owned series

Yeah that’s the thing. It improved our calculus. Yes this movie is worth checking out—but it’s a “let’s just wait” movie, as opposed to a “clear my calendar” movie

Speaking of crime, I was just in the library and looking at all of the various graphic novels by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips Can i ask everyone in comics for a very minor favor? Will you change the comic book industry to be more like this kind of output

but seriously—they proposed a casino on manhattan’s east side? I know that they’re desperate but that’s just nonsense. The east side where the Real wealthy people live? Where the United Nations sits, they want to put a crime factory?!

personally, I think nyc can’t have both things simultaneously: it can’t have fears about street crime *and* start opening up casinos in the middle of town

26,000 YouTube views for Sinclair’s Charlie Kirk tribute special. Just for comparison, Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue on any average Wednesday will get between two and four MILLION YouTube views. Right wing culture is fringe stuff. It is not American culture by any stretch.

Democrats fucked that election up way, way more than Trump won it, and any illusion of a massive mandate, from the popular vote victory or otherwise, is made worthless by that. Pretending otherwise feels like an act of wishful thinking from a lot of these folk.

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

A fun fact about McCarthyism is that just two and a half years after he was condemned and censured, Sen. Joseph McCarthy drank himself to death at 48. Fevers break. Petty tyrants fall. Censorship and persecution drive good people to stand together and fight back.

Journalists, you have to stop using the word "crackdown" with the shit Trump's doing. It's not a value-neutral word, it implies "finally doing something about all that crime." It's a lie when it comes to what he's doing with the National Guard, and it absolutely doesn't apply to free speech.
