i rewatched The Matrix trilogy recently and could not help but laugh when i saw each movie had a different production logo. they were all released within four years, with the second and third movie released in the same year!

Also enjoy the fact that, even though Mando has kind of become increasingly invincible as the show's gone on (and for a lot of the first 2/3 of this movie, which isn't super compelling), they did make a point to show him on the backfoot + flailing a bit in this fight

• having 10+ minutes of the movie's screentime just be mostly silent + centered around puppet Grogu? Plus the Anzellan puppets? A treat. They'll probably never do it again (since this movie didn't make money) but I'm really warmed by that. A proper dose of artfully-crafted-silliness in a silly movie

Justin 🦕 @artness.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Oh, I will say there are 3 highlights: • the Ludwig Goransson score is expectedly great (both the familiar stuff that he revisits and the new stuff) • the Phil Tippett stop-motion droids are exceptional. They wouldn't have done that (to that level) on the show so that was unexpected and terrific

Justin 🦕 @artness.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I think the Mando movie is just fine (it's clearly 4 episodes of the show stitched together, so calibrate expectations) but I like this exchange because while Grogu has softened him, it's nice to be reminded that the reason Mando popped as a character initially is because he is a cold glass of juice

ATTN: people smarter than me I designed these fake comic covers and I want to try and get them printed at the scale/on the type of paper+finish used for mass produced comic book covers. Does anyone have recommendations for a printer who'll print *just* the cover of a single-issue comic?

Everyone in Trump II deserves to be booed loudly and relentlessly every time they show their faces in public for the rest of their lives, but there is a whole other level of booing that should greet people who did less than nothing and then talk about how hard it was. apnews.com/article/thom...

Trump's 2018 "zero tolerance" policy was denounced on both sides of the political aisle as inhumane, and a federal court ruled it illegal. Now the Trump administration is separating families again, only this time more quietly, and away from the border.

This part is genuinely goofy. "The first three witches they caught were actually witches"?? Huh? So witches WERE real? And what's the "witch office" in this metaphor? Human resources offices which existed for decades prior? Also what "overhead" is required to call out shitty behavior

Was feeling my handwriting today while filling orders (the Sharpie had the perfect amount of wear and the surface I was working on was 😙🤌🏼 so I thought "now'd be a good time to do a lot of repetitive writing I can use to make a font" so I now have 3 pages of what looks like a serial killer's notebook

Anyway if you want, I'll pop it open in front of you because it's very satisfying to do. Also it's just nice to hold a non-powered metal rectangle in your hand that doesn't connect to any sort of network? Like an ingot. Or a 90s Nokia phone.

I got a vintage style metal cigarette case to hold business cards (so that I can safely carry some with me in my EDC bag) but I *had* to cover up the generic art nouveau designs on the case so I made two rectangular stickers (featuring digitally assembled collages using designs of my own + others)

So I painted this in 2014 because that was the first time* I had been repeatedly inundated with the concept of "not all men" from men who didn't seem to understand why that kneejerk defensiveness was missing the point and also was outwardly harmful. Anyway it's 2026 now and I'm posting it again
