A bit of shameless self-promotion here, but I have a comic coming out in this Jewish comics anthology… if we make the funding goal! Twelve days to go — donations are obviously hugely appreciated, but spreading the news is precious as well!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ame...

I really thought I’d come out of “The Death of Robin Hood” with more thoughts than I have.

Bluesky is for normal people because the controversy over RF Kuang putting an unnamed character who is described as an Israeli pianist in her latest book is limited to Threads. PS: stop making me defend RF Kuang!

My list of critiques of season 5 of Stranger Things is long (LONG) but you know what, here at the end of it, I’ll give the show props for this much: They never tried to ape prestige by pointlessly invoking religious imagery and symbolism. ST’s metaphors are firmly secular, and I appreciate that.

Really not related to anything, not I heard this banger of a quote last night and think it’s worth sharing. From Hans Eysenck: “People often consider themselves the Isaac Newton of physics, and find themselves the Isaac Newton of alchemy.“

Let’s get it straight, the Mets didn’t trade Jeff McNeil, they dropped him in the MLB Buy Nothing group.

With respect to both, “28 Years Later was shot on an iPhone” is the “Ariana Grande had to audition for Glinda like everyone else” of 2025.

Statistically, realistically, this isn’t the collapse of the #Mets entire season. But holy shit it feels that way.
