Yeah, I've seen photos of old school copiers like this. They were the T-rex to the tiny copiers we have today.

Oh God, dude! I can't deal when I'm woken up that early just because of a hairball.

People go to amazing lengths to assume that your writing is autobiographical (or at least reflects your real life).

Really like the shadow on the left side of his face. Looks right out of opening scene of first movie.

WOW! I hope everything goes well for both of you.

I don’t use AI. I think it’s a both an ethical and environmental disaster, and as a writer, I have no use for it—I want the work to be MY work. My sci-fi romance book INTO THE GREAT comes out on Tuesday. It’s 100% human written and published, and you can get it here: lilfac.com/shop/ws-/pro...

😆 But I doubt they looked that iconic.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social made the excellent point that we should just rename Mar-a-Lago.

Yeah, what did that meeting where they decided this was a good idea even look like?

Really loved Harrow County, especially the combination between whimsy and darkness. Should return to that series again someday.

Just received my contributor copy for Lifeline Comics' WITCHING SEASON anthology, which includes my short comic "The Witch of Hallowed Creek." Super proud to be a part of this collection. (Will share link to purchase when it's available.) #indiecomics #horrorcomics #comicanthology #lifelinecomics

I should really pick up that skill.

Michael barron @barronauthor.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Really curious to see where this is going. Love the balance of the grounded with the fantastical. Don't necessarily want every super hero show to do this, but I wish they all left their mark like this.

"Decept out?" (But the ones they are Decepting the most is themselves.)

Happens to the best of us. (Or at least it happens to me.)

On one hand: how are people still supporting this guy? On the other: I'm not at all surprised that they're still supporting him.

I've had dreams like that and woken to similar reactions. Mental list of all the people in your life you could help. (Also once had a dream I was directing a new X-men movie but we ran out of money so we used sporks for Wolverine's claws.)

Can't wait to watch Camp Miasma. And she's apparently also directing an adaptation of Black Hole which I'm very excited about.

(And if you're looking at that costume and thinking that maybe you've seen it somewhere before, then you've probably seen the cover for AMELIA SHADOWS AND THE ANNOYING ARCHENEMY, coming in December! When that comes out, you'll see how this all ties together!)

The cover for ASatAAE with Awesome Man on it!

Don't worry, Buzz made the same mistake in Home Alone.

That's happened to me in the past and I was like "Does this come with extra pay...or training?"

Loved this movie when I was a kid. First action movie I ever saw.

(CW: Talk about cancer and suicide) If I can put my Comic Book Dad hat back on for a second -- I don't like that the first thing I think about when I hear about a comic book creator dying far too young is to wonder if it was cancer or suicide. I don't like what that says about the industry.

Just checked out your portfolio. You've got some really incredible work! (Love the "Some People Are Trans Get Over It" sign.)

I want to be like "I wish he were the mayor of a small town so he wouldn't be able to do harm." But no. He'd still be doing harm, just on a smaller, more focused scale.
