So my daughter is the face of a nationwide Congressional PSA on teenage mental health that launched today. She was chosen based on her advocacy stemming from our @imagecomics.com comic, A HAUNTED GIRL (co-created by her, me, & @marcolorenzana.bsky.social)!

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice.

Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice.

Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice.

Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice.

Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.

Random fun fact of the day - women are the reason #StarWars #publishing exists. And the reason it has been so successful that it could endure as it has for so many decades.

(I'm an expert on this stuff)

That DoD list is heartening but I mourn all the news orgs that aren’t on the list because they used to cover the Pentagon and no longer do.

Also, a shoutout to editors @spencercushing.bsky.social & Joseph Cavanagh for working their magic to get this made.

Editors never get enough appreciation for all they do behind the scenes to get a book this good made. Wizards at what they do.

Want to have a spell cast over you? Pick up DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: THE FALLBACKS #1 from @darkhorse.com this Wednesday.

The creative team of @gregpak.net, Wilton Santos, and co. are fantastic bards when it comes to storytelling.

It's a treasure that's worth the quest to your local comic shop.

U.S. consumers are already shouldering as much as 55% of costs due to Trump’s unprecedented gambit to impose sizable tariffs on imports, according to a new report from Goldman Sachs analysts.

U.S. consumers bearing more than half the cost of tariffs so far, Goldman Sachs says

The findings suggest U.S. consumers will continue to struggle with high prices — something Trump had promised to address in the run-up to his re-election.

I'm glad the hostages have been returned and many Palestinians have been freed as well. Its a big deal.

But Palestinians are still occupied and this extremist Israeli government has said they're going to take Gaza and everything from the river to the sea.

Just a matter of time this explodes.

You might be asking yourself, "Are these people actually that stupid, or just that dishontest?"

And the answer is Yes.
