I no longer think Zohran Mamdani is cool now that I have found out he is three years younger than me. All politicians should be 36 or older.

Probably the thing I’m most apprehensive about with F4 is that it seems they are destined to lose. Either Galactus leads to the death of their universe or they save the world from Galactus and the planet still dies. I don’t know how you ride that line of empty victory to a satisfying conclusion

At a certain point, I have to imagine these same talking points get boring or something for even people in the cult. Like, everything can’t be the end of the world. “Man they can’t all love Hamas right?”

A fun thing about American politics is that more people voted in New York City in a June primary than live in five states that get two senators.

Wanted to make sure Luke felt special on his birthday today after the baby was born and he’s been a good sport about the attention. Because I am somehow raising a boy who loves all sports we took him to Top Golf which has a fun Sonic the Hedgehog game on their screens. 4 years old already!

Wasn’t able to watch the Phillies tonight. Seems like it was a bummer of a game.

Don’t functionally care too much who is mayor of NYC but it’s nice that Cuomo, a rich man who was forced to resign in disgrace after his governmental neglect during COVID killed innocent people and sexual assault misconduct, is probably going to lose

Have had to watch a lot of bad kids shows in the last four years. The Lion Guard? Surprisingly pretty good. Gets dark! They bring the ghost of Scar back from the dead in an occult ritual and he’s voiced by David Oyelowo.

Just watched a Zohran speech for the first time, because I’ve been ignoring most of the posts about NYC for weeks on principle. That should be the future of the Dem party, imo. All about labor and against billionaires. Good stuff. Good orator, too.

I think the only productive lesson you can really take from Trump is that people like what they perceive as personality and authenticity so no, she should not apologize for it.

For @defector.com, I tried to figure out what's going on with John Fetterman's political memoir, ghostwritten by Buzz Bissinger It may not shock you to learn that Fetterman and Bissinger haven't gotten along (to put it politely), according to my sources defector.com/nobody-wants...

A U.S. citizen on their way to work abducted by ICE then locked in a basement, with federal government employees refusing to consider indisputable proof of citizenship. Congress endorses it. SCOTUS keeps thwarting judges from even slowing it. What more is there to say? We live under fascism now.

In the 20 years I've been working in comics, I've heard a lot of tips, tricks and advice-- but some of it I had to learnt he hard way! So, here are 20 things that I've learned that I wish I had been told when I was first starting out (but wasn't!).

It’s not so much that Bluesky is alive or dead but that the Twitter era is dead and some people are really stuck on Anger and Bargaining and Bluesky is acceptance.
