Found a box of old photos. Here’s a 35mm portrait of Forrest J. Ackerman, founder of Famous Monsters. This is probably 1997 or 1998. He’s wearing Karloff’s ring from THE MUMMY.

Not only are they cutting SNAP and refusing to send food to food banks, “the administration has told grocery stores that they cannot offer discounts to customers affected by the lapse of SNAP.”

Exactly. Show him his post first. Put it up on a screen. Then ask him virtually any question about any word, phrase, or sentence in it.

I managed to totally miss this somehow - the Mac app for Ruffle, the Flash emulator, bundles a Safari extension. If you pop it in /Applications, suddenly Safari can natively play back any webpage with Flash in it. I'm going to the Radiskull website and watching cartoons like it's 2000. ruffle.rs

If you’re a working artist talking to other creatives I’m begging you to not hide this. I have a parter who makes more and I don’t hide that and try to be as open as I can especially one on one. It’s cruel to not be honest with your fellow artist and give them any kind of false hope or fear

Frank J. Barbiere @fjbarb.bsky.social · 2d

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.

When people hear that I'm returning to part time work they often ask "are things not going well with your art?"

The problem really is things are going well, but the world is so unstable that I long for some consistency and income that I don't have to pay quarterly taxes on

If the leader of your church is wealthy, you do not go to a Christian church. You go to a capitalist church that performs Christinan drag.

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

Living in Japan, you find that many things you THINK Japanese people find rude are not rude at all. And many things you THINK are normal are incredibly rude.

Eating sushi with knife and fork? - Not rude

Asking for a vegetarian or gluten free option - Incredibly rude

my first (of likely many) pieces of #frankenstein2025 fanart.

Thank you maestro, @realgdt.bsky.social I know there are many who love this film, but I felt so seen, and so held, despite the anguish of simply being alive.

a portait of the Creature from Guillermo del Toros Frankenstein. He is framed by a variety of symbols and scenes from the film in a vaguely art nouveau manner. He reaches up toward a yellow butterfly.

I have been lucky to be in London at the exact same time as the exhibit for @realgdt.bsky.social Frankenstein. I was also lucky enough to see it on the big screen a week ago and I’m STILL thinking about it. I’m obsessed with it. This is how you do it, with passion
