Just because I am feeling punchy this morning, the Raw Shark Texts and the Sugar Frosted Nutsack.
alright let’s get something more pleasant going. what two books would you leave out on your coffee table so a reporter can mention you have them. doesn’t matter if you’ve read them. for me it’s Pale Fire (which I did read) and Ulysses (got like 15% of the way in)

Just had a hankering for this classic. A fave to try to sing with @geekworlds.bsky.social at jams at the Jolly Alderman, a way back in the day.

My latest at @comicsjournal.bsky.social: I talked to @oglaf.bsky.social! Not the character, but rather, the people who create it.
They don't do many interviews, so this was a real treat. They're funny people! Turns out they're not super private, just...really bad at PR?

Other than some time off every year for Christmas, Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne have delivered a new Oglaf comic, skewering fantasy tropes with absolutely not safe for work humor, every week since 2008...

Oops I accidentally deleted my post of the Surfer vs Poor Things for the evening, when I find myself unexpectedly alone.
Poor Things was definitely the right choice. What a wild and beautiful, funny and weird movie!

Why am I still putting together this Halloween costume, two days after Halloween? And it would be kind of a pain to store, so will I bother to keep it for next year?

Last week I got on a roll of of listening to Woody Guthrie, and then old time-y folk and country. Which included several versions of In the Pines. Then watching Wayward this week, it included In the Pines a few times, so I thought I would include it on my monthly mix.

I would have to say it was Frank Miller’s RONIN that made me decide to make comics for real. I was into comics but never really thought about making them my career until I found RONIN.
