I've had issues with her for a while. Chief among them being her bowing out of a local ComicCon and blaming reshoots on Arrow... despite Stephen Amell, John Barrowman and David Ramsey being at the same con.

She also later posted pictures of herself on the beach in California that weekend.

Didn't know about Katie Cassidy but that doesn't surprise me. Her first action after Arrow ended was to sell NFTs of her nudes.

Is there anything sadder than trolling the Sesame Street post for Indigenous Peoples Day and telling Big Bird it is Columbus Day?

Don't make me tap the Robert Pattinson quote, Leto.

“I always say about people who do method acting, you only ever see people do the method when they’re playing an assholes,” Pattinson said in an interiew with Variety in November. “You never see someone being lovely to everyone while they’re really deep in character.”

He's only remembered today because of the Will Eisner connection and because it shows how litigious DC/National was even then.

It may seem like that, but there was a Wonder Man before Wonder Woman. He was co-created by Will Eisner and quickly dropped one month later because of it being a clearly actionable Superman ripoff.

I know Trump and his minions all have sneering contempt for kids with special needs, but trust me when I say that their parents will absolutely fucking destroy anyone who messes with the special education supports to which they are entitled by law.

Sara Partridge, PhD @sarapartridge.bsky.social · 3d

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

I dunno. Any interest I had in DC KO evaporated when I saw Black Canary wasn't in the line-up.
