I feel like they need to make movies featuring a heroic rock band and an evil rock band again.

This week you can find The Scale of a Man, my illustrated reflection on craft, grief, and inheritance, on @therumpus.net. Thank you @marinaomi.bsky.social for believing in this piece and getting it further into the world. Read the whole thing here: therumpus.net/2026/10/13/t...
The Scale of a Man, by Lucy Bellwood. In clean, black and blue artwork, a small man in plaid stands between two incoming waves, looking up at a model tall ship in a glass case.Two hands, drawn in clean, black and blue artwork, hold a pen above a penciled page in progress showing a boat and colonists in pencil. The narration says "Okay, Lucy. You can do this."The previous pencilled page is now fully rendered in black and blue. A square rigged sailing ship plunges through the sea in the top panel. It's December, 1732. The merchantman Anne is somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic, bound for Yamacraw Bluff. A colonial family look toward the horizon. She carries 114 souls under the leadership of General James Oglethorpe. These English colonists will populate the future state of Georgia. Most survive the crossing, but some do not. The last image of the page shows two small, shrouded bodies plunging below the waves.General Oglethorpe, in wig and greatcoat, writes at a desk on January 13th, 1733. "We have lost none of our people except the youngest son of Richard Cannon, aged eight months, and the youngest son of Robert Clarke, aged one year and an half. Those were so far gone that all our efforts to save them were in vain." In a similar posture, Lucy sits at her drawing table, a hole cut clean through her chest with the light from her anglepoise lamp shooting through it to illuminate a small box of ashes on the table behind her. Narration reads: My dad died while I was working on this comic. I should probably mention that up front. It's impossible to make anything right now that's not full of his absence. In the panel below, the colonists are now in a small rowboat, headed for the distant coast. The colonists' story rolls on, full of the stuff of textbooks. But I can't stop thinking about those two boys.

it literally could not be easier to run against an opponent who is fixated on a microscopic minority that isn’t actually harming anyone! focusing on imaginary threats posed by trans people instead of the world burning down around us is bad politics! point that out! loudly!

Checking in on this post 6 months later. Now do we understand why Iran launched the same cheap drones at the same oil targets, knowing that they'd all get shot down? Now do we understand the strategy that all of the US people that were fired from the Pentagon, tried to warn Trump's people about?

It's interesting to me that the Canadian meaning of "live with this" is to come up with new strategies to mitigate changing conditions, while the US meaning of "live with this" is to do absolutely fucking nothing.

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.
Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

i can't let this go: Obama navigating gay marriage wasn't about taking rights away from people. Like, maybe that's a hair not worth splitting, but LGBTQ folks were trying to gain the right to marry. they weren't having the right to health care and the right to use the fucking bathroom taken away.

There are two figures facing away from each other, wearing suits, in an exaggerated "dance" pose. Small versions of the same figures form a border around the sticker. Speech bubbles from three of them say "Well... how did I get here?," "How do I work this?," "Where is that large automobile?"Black bumper sticker with white text reading

"The hill I will die on is that there is a fascinating and beautiful world out there, filled with conversation and laughter and the possibility of making new friends and acquaintances"🤡 "The wearer... would rather be elsewhere, plunged into music or a novel"🤡 Hear that ladies? Music of humanity!
A painting: a man annoys a woman on a train with the "music of his humanity." You can tell by the expression on her face that she wishes that she lived in a time when earphones were invented.
