It was super fun! Some good banter and lovely art, too!

I was supposed to be seeing @kneecapceol.bsky.social in Toronto tonight but some fuck holes in the Canadian government stopped that from happening for completely bullshit reasons. Póg mo thóin! And hold those responsible for genocide responsible!

“When it comes to the almost 2,000 Palestinians who were released by Israel as part of the deal… there has been silence from much of our mainstream media.”

Read five stories about Palestinian hostages released from Israeli detention following the Gaza ceasefire agreement: zeteo.com/p/five-pales...

I laughed at that post. I'm 55 and I STILL remember both my high school locker combination and my 9 number university ID.

Comics in the Spooky Age 🧛🧟‍♀️👻 @comicsinthega.bsky.social · 1d

Today is the birthday of Grace Drayton (Oct. 14, 1878-Jan. 31, 1936), who was among the first popular female cartoonists. She created the Campbell Soup Kids campaign in the early 20th century, & the newspaper strips Dottie Dimple, Dimples, Dolly Dimple & Bobby Bounce, & The Pussycat Princess.

Samples of her work, including two from her Campbell’s soup campaign, as well as a Dimples newspaper comic strip, and paper dolls.

Had an American guest at our Canadian bar last night annoyed that we didn't carry American bourbon. I offered him some fine Canadian alternatives but he was belligerent. I gave him a cheeky wink and asked him who he voted for. He did not enjoy that.

Have just read that Drew Struzen has passed away. An absolute LEGEND who drew so many of my life's favourite paintings and posters. You know and loved him well. Love to his family, friends and fans.

Some artwork by Drew Sturzan - a collage from his movie posters from Hook, Star Wars, Back To The Future, Rambo and more.

He's all of those things.

David Evans @dalekdave.bsky.social · 1d

Agreed.

David Evans @dalekdave.bsky.social · 1d

Holy shit!Yes! Grown adults acting like they own fictional characters is beyond me. Lots of characters that I love have been written or have been in stories I'm not fond of. I'm not going to rail against it. I just keep reading until I enjoy the ones that eventually come along again. Or take a break

Happy Birthday from Canada! Thank you for all the joy you've brought into my (and so many others') lives. Here's to many more. Much love and admiration.

My fave character in all of Star Trek's history. Doug Jones is a gift to us all.

I'm up in Canada but I'm watching with curiosity and this man has not failed to impress me at every turn. He'd have my vote if I was there and I honestly feel like he could do great things.
