Diversifying my portfolio, these are all real good!

Little ghost! 👻 Photo from my collection, 1964.

Nothing magnifies life — in the proper sense of the word, rooted in the Latin for “to make greater, to glorify” — more than the act of noticing its details, and nothing sanctifies it more: Kneeling to look at a lichen is a devotional act.

Jaime Hernandez’s splendid cover to 1985’s Amazing Heroes Preview Issue.

If you think he's mad now, wait until he finds out the resale price for Teslas.

#EmotionalSupportSpood A little jumping spider hanging out on the end of a dead branch. I've moved a few of these friends the last few days - from the recycling bin and my aunt's car. Such cool little dudes. (Eris sp.) Eastern PA

This video is chock full of fun bugs facts and I found myself saying wow a few times. Check it out! youtu.be/y66Hw3sevuc?...

At first I bristled at yet another English language version of Danish noir, but this looks deliciously dark and compelling. Great cast, maybe it even has some the madcap humor of the books. variety.com/2025/tv/revi...

#shakeyourclz One of the many comics that astound me by not being kept in print in the US. I would like the complete Blueberry in a large format, comics publishers!

Goodness, what @cleanlined.bsky.social is doing on these pages is an absolute wonder (page after page)!! Brilliant storytelling from @kellythompson.bsky.social Sherman and co! (I do units in class on circular and other geometric page structures - this single issue is a master class in that…)

This comic is different
