Fuck the fascists, fuck the collaborators, fuck the racists and homophobes and transphobes, fuck the hatemongers, fuck the sniveling equivocators, fuck the apologists, fuck the enablers, and fuck the bootlickers.

Fuck ‘em all.

Back in the Flynt days, my mom once brought him chicken soup when he was laid out sick on my couch for days.

Every year I make a Halloween postcard, and this year @sandyjarrell.com and I collaborated! It features our take on the classic DC characters Cain & Abel from our recent Jimmy Olsen graphic novel, where they’re the co-hosts of The House of Mysteries & Secrets, a horror tv show on Gotham’s own WGBS.

Sandy Jarrell’s amazing illustration of a vintage newspaper ad for Cain & Abel’s creature feature tv show The House of Mysteries & Secrets, Saturday nights on Gotham’s own WGBS-TV, channel 8.

Aiming to! Did you know that Ethan Hawke’s character is based on Lee Roy Chapman, an old Austin head who used to work at Emo’s and print with Lindsey and Don Rock? He was a helluva dude and is sorely missed.

It’s crazy that we all recognize this as an insane thing to ask for or expect.

Publishers should be invested in promoting the books they publish.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Just found out the name for mocking the powers-that-be while doing whimsical protesting:

Tactical frivolity.

There, now you know too.

“It took years for me to appreciate his profound, plainspoken strength.” That sounds like a you problem, because NOBODY thinks Johnny Cash is fucking “uncool.”

This is what happens when smart people who don’t write about culture for a living write about culture.

Precisely zero people think Johnny Cash was uncool.

Today for @thebulwark.com I take a look at the short fiction of one of the great American genre writers, Charles Beaumont.

The Hopeless Horror of Charles Beaumont

The writer died before his fortieth birthday—but left behind an influential catalogue of stories and unforgettable Twilight Zone episodes.

One of the best television shows of all time as well as being one of the greatest testimonies to the beauty of making art in collaboration with people, the glory of theater, and the timeless appeal of Shakespeare.

Not for nothing, but Mark Bray’s book is sold out pretty much EVERYWHERE except for his publisher (but their shipping options are kinda bonkers).

Gabe Soria @bitchinville.bsky.social · 5d

It goes without saying, but anybody who CAMPAIGNS for a Nobel Peace Prize is a self-aggrandizing phony and an unworthy chump of the highest order.
