So yeah, we already did ”why don’t the Judges from Judge Dredd buy off crime“ and answered it “because they don’t want to” so that’s one up on Batman.

Jim Henson would have been 90 (yup, you read that right: NINETY) years old today. You can celebrate his life by celebrating creativity, diversity, peace, imagination, and silliness.

Alas, it's true; Popverse's editorial team has been laid off and departs at the end of the week. I'm really proud of a lot of what we managed to do across the last 4+ years, and grateful for all the opportunities it offered. Working with Chris, Ashley, Grant, Jules, Trent (and more!) was an honor.

"Noohu was hired to work on Criminal, based on the interlocking world of crime stories from comic book powerhouse Brubaker, in February 2023 by Big Indie (A Complete Unknown, Manchester by the Sea, Still Alice, Fallout, Mr. and Mrs. Smith). Soon after that, the lawsuit says, Brubaker started to subject Noohu to “repeated and pervasive” sexual harassment by making comments about running his hands through Noohu’s hair, joking about rape and rubbing Noohu’s back.

"Separately, Brubaker directed “demeaning stereotypes” about curry, comments invoking the “Tiger Mom” trope, references to Never Have I Ever and comments about Noohu’s presumed facility with math at the production assistant, a Sri Lankan American filmmaker, according to the complaint. Noohu was also frequently asked whether he supports Hamas, the lawsuit says."

I don't know how much I'm allowed to share about the origin of this extremely entertaining one-shot, but basically I went to @al-ewing.bsky.social and said "hey do you have any spare jobs you need doing for Queen in Black" and Al was like "You wanna tie up the second-most important plot point?"

Reminder that when some say Portland has "the highest taxes in the country," they often fail to mention it's only for individuals over $125k/year. And when they say it's higher than California and New York (oh my!), it's about a 3% difference and without those states' 8% sales tax.

It’s so intellectually dishonest for anybody to cast Dolly Parton as apolitical. It’s so cynical. It tells me that they think everybody’s values are aesthetic, just for show.

I'm sure she got advice on her image, on how it might be better to reject her LGBTQ audience. She didn't. She knew what it was to be powerless & poor & she didn't want *anyone* to live that way. A lesson for people w aspirations to public life: Hurting others doesn't have to be part of the equation.

I think this is true - but nobody should ever discount the quiet but ever present radicalism of an unapologetically sexual working class woman who wasn't going to tone down a damn thing in any sphere of her life but turn it all up to 11. It might have been a "joke" but it was deadly serious.

A roadie once told me about working on one of Dolly Parton’s tours years ago: On the first day of rehearsals, she arrived and gathered the whole crew around to introduce herself. She then lifted her shirt and said “there they are, now you’ve seen ‘em, let’s get to work.” RIP Queen.
