The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel is titled “things that are spooky”. We see a book of hexes, a skull, candles, a pentagram in blood, and vampire teeth. Pointing off panel we see a speech bubble that says “I love it”.
The second panel is titled “things that are cute”. We see a strawberry cake, a boba drink, a bunny plushie, and a cute notebook and pen. Again, we see a speech bubble pointing off panel that says “I love it”.
The third panel is titled “things that are spooky AND cute”. We see a row of cute decorative ghosts.
The fourth panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, completely freaking out at this combination.

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

Started mocking up the design for this back in May, after SWCLA badge sales. Finally got the nerve (and time) to cut the vinyl this weekend. Happy 200 days to Star Wars Celebration LA! 🥳
Photo of a black tee shirt decorated with a mash up design of Wicket the Ewok posing like the iconic Big Boy mascot. He is wearing his orange hood and Big Boy’s red and white checked overalls. Instead of “Big Boy” the text on his shirt reads “Yub Nub.” Instead of a burger on his raised tray, he holds a stormtrooper helmet.Close up of my ewok Big Boy design.

Listening to this episode while I organize my craft supplies 🥰
Photo of white shelves with casters, part of a collapsible IKEA Billy bookcase desk combo. On the wood floor in front sits a random selection of thread spools. On the lowest shelf are six plastic containers labeled with their contents, such as “Glue,” “Hot Glue,” and “Sewing Machine Supplies.” On the shelf above rests the sewing machine, a modest Brother LS-30 that continues to punch outside its weight class despite my neglect and was a Christmas present almost 20 years ago. Scattered among the shelves are scraps of fabric, Big Four sewing patterns, grommet and fastener bits, sewing clips, and a copy of the Reader’s Digest New Complete Guide to Sewing that I have never actually opened.

Bingo. Very close to where I grew up, while reflecting how my language was shaped by my parents and grandparents.
Image of my results from the NYT 2024 published dialect quiz, built from 2013 data. Three heat maps of the continental United States. The first one centers on Detroit, due to my use of the phrase “Devil’s Night” (thanks Dad). The middle focuses on the Great Lakes and spreads across the upper Midwest/Great Plains, with Grand Rapids, Michigan pinpointed. The third shows that same area, with Toledo, Ohio as the pinpointed city; both of those maps are based on my usage of the word “pop” in reference to soda.

These maps are far and away more accurate for me than that vibe coded AI slop being passed around on socials right now. No clue why, it kept locating me in the Pacific Northwest, specifically Oregon. I’ve never even been there.
