I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

Americans will no longer get free entry to federal parks on Martin Luther King Day.
They will, however, on Trump’s June 14 birthday.

Think of all those DC characters Netflix could give a two season show to, then suddenly drop.
The scope is infinite.

Netflix has won the bidding war to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, and is now moving forward with a deal potentially worth over $70 billion.
Should their bid succeed, Netflix would own DC Comics, Harry Potter, Hanna-Barbera, HBO, and more.

Everyone at 2000 AD is deeply saddened to hear that artist Adam Stone has passed away. Adam was the winner of 2024's @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social Talent Search and his first work in 2000 AD was only just published in July.
