this trailer ran ahead of friday's G-quacks screening. @relenawarcraft.bsky.social can confirm that I said "looks like shit lmao" afterwards, and got a good laugh from the crowd. because it does

What's not mentioned in this excerpt is that this was sponsored by Third Way, a think tank that is singlemindedly devoted to convincing Democrats to cut the left out of the party. God knows the DNC has its problems, but it's misleading to frame this as a mainstream Democratic conference.

GQuuuuuux is a lot of fun. My pal who knows very little about Gundam was a bit flummoxed, but he dug Machu. I'm very, very curious how Tsurumaki will interweave his messy-by-design coming-of-age stories with Gundam's fraught-by-design coming-of-age stories.

This is, in fact, a nuclear level insult, and I say this as someone who used to ski in jeans during the years I'd ripped my ski pants and could either afford the lift tickets or the replacement ski pants.

The "Vance skis in jeans" sign is incredible

Done.

Shedding light on folks who make this craziness possible is everything to me. I'm honored to announce Eunice Huthart as this year's Vulture Stunts Lifetime Achievement Award winner. In her own words with help from Angelina Jolie & Nida Manzoor: www.vulture.com/article/who-...

@spacecolonystudios.bsky.social's STORIES FROM SOL: THE GUN-DOG pays homage to PC-98 adventure games and visual novels by being superb. It's my favorite game of 2025 so far. I want to shout about it from the rooftops. I reviewed for the good folks at @aiptcomics.com aiptcomics.com/2025/02/24/s...

Google Gemini is enrolling everyone 18+ where gemini is available. If you do not want this. 1) go to gemini.google.com/extensions. turn off *everything* 2) go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini. Do them in this order. Gemini scrapes account activity for AI model learning. #nogenAI #privacy

Done.

I dug AFTERLOVE EP, Pikselnesia's hybrid of visual novel, adventure game, rhythm game, and dating simulator. While I've got my frustrations with some of its mechanics and a major late-game bug, its story and characters are excellent, and it's an audio-visual treat. aiptcomics.com/2025/02/14/a...

none of us at NYMag want to walk out (or ask our readers to skip the cinematrix!), and we're hoping a contract is within reach. that's largely because of how unified our union has been, and the support our readers have shown. if you haven't signed - it helps nymagunion.org/reader-pledge

"...the Premier Collection is a good idea that's mostly executed well. I hope the coming volumes follow "Born Again"'s lead and include interesting back matter..." #daredevil #MarvelComics #NCBD #comicbooks #comics Read @jseanharrison.bsky.social's review:

Also, over @aiptcomics.com, I got to write about the new edition of Mazzucchelli and Miller's "Born Again." Making beloved comics more accessible in the name of money (because comics) makes beloved comics more accessible, so I'm all for it. aiptcomics.com/2025/02/05/d...

My latest!

Let's keep this energy going. Hundreds of visits are scheduled at Senate offices across the nation. See if there’s an event happening near you to fight back against the illegal Trump-Musk power grab: www.mobilize.us/indi... Or organize and register a new visit: www.mobilize.us/indi...

Americans were unused to the news happening to them. They hated the news happening to them during the pandemic, and thus voted to make it 2019 again by science or magic. And now the news is going to happen to them again very badly.

This will take you 30 seconds. Do it.

If I were to name some great independent journalists who actually break news on their newsletters? Pretty easy off the top of my head: - @marisakabas.bsky.social - @jamiedupree.bsky.social - @capitol.press - @oliverdarcy.bsky.social

For Black History Month, I want to shout out a huge influence on my TTRPG writing and one of the best to ever do it, Maximum Mike Pondsmith. A towering talent and all around cool dude, Mike is the brains behind Cyberpunk2020/Cyberpunk RED/Cyberpunk2077.

Hi! I’m actually the original artist 🙋It kinda escaped containment and the internet ain’t great at crediting, so I understand not everyone knows, but I’m at least glad it gives folks a laugh.

One thing I want to do for myself, amidst figuring out how to move and how to do right by folks right now, is write more. Thus, I reviewed Wolf Man for the good folks at the Hyperreal Journal. I did not like Wolf Man. hyperrealfilm.club/reviews/wolf...

It's an enjoyable read, but most interesting as an artifact, I think.

Black Dynamite remains one of the funniest movies ever made.

not Lynch's movie, I know, but god, what a sendoff

My latest!

For those sickos watching 1970s anime.

Tsukihime: -A piece of blue glass moon- is a masterpiece of horror, romance, and action. From Shiki's haunting powers to Arcueid’s enigmatic charm, it’s a game that sinks its fangs into you & doesn’t let go. Check out why it’s @jseanharrison.bsky.social's Best of 2024:
