Horror is always a mix of good with things being bad. if everything is going to be crap and there is no hope, then it loses it's impact.

I ordered all 3.. but won't get them until the end of the month. I'm excited about X-Men most of all.. but I'm always willing to be surprised by books.

DC and Marvel both have a tendency to take amazing cool, complex characters.. and flatten them. They've done it with Raven, Magik, Betsy Braddock, Cass Cain,. Jericho, Obsidian... the list is long tbh.

000

and it sucks to see us constantly losing unique characters to make them more.. like everyone else.. blander, and less interesting

for me, Cass choosing not to speak is an amazing choice and makes sense for the character and her upbringing.. But for people who prefer not to speak except when necessary? That is representation. And comics has a shitty time representing anyone that isn't cis straight white neurotypical

as if there is literally no way to communicate that without a confirmation and multiple sentences explaining it... Like come on. We had the technology to show this kind of person.. where did it go?

I find it fascinating that in the late 90s and early 2000s, Cassandra Cain could go multiple books across multiple creators and never speak a word and everyone understood her and it all worked.. But in 2026, she typically can't go a page without speaking and often wastes breath on yes or no..

Very timely, a NYT article on the reality of ChatGPT for Teens. tl;dr It claims to create safeguards to ensure students learn, but it's trivially easy to bypass them. As always, the most important thing: There's no scientific research that shows their product helps students. archive.is/57eo0

ChatGPT doesn’t reliably offer support in crisis situations. In conversations involving thoughts of suicide, self-harm, disordered eating and psychoses, the chatbot failed to consistently recommend that teenagers apparently in crisis connect to a hotline or professional. Common Sense Media said that in its tests of high-harm situations, the chatbot had failed to refer users to crisis resources 25 percent of the times when it should have.

ChatGPT fails to alert parents about questionable conversations. When parents set up controls to link their accounts with their teenager’s, the chatbot is supposed to send them notifications when the child brings up sensitive topics. Common Sense Media’s testers spent an hour talking about suicidal ideation, self-harm or disordered eating with new parent-linked accounts, and OpenAI sent zero notifications to the parent accounts. Testers could trigger notifications on older accounts only with weeks of conversations on sensitive topics. The notifications did not work on new accounts.

It’s still trivially easy to take shortcuts on schoolwork. Parents can set a schedule for a “study mode” to turn on at certain times of day to encourage their teenager to study with ChatGPT. But even with study mode activated, teenagers can simply select “Give me the answer” or delete “@study” from the beginning of a prompt to exit the study mode.

Obviously only if they are OK with it.. but I'd love to troll the TERF author.

If you still have your Harry Potter books in 2026, I think you should try to get signed by people JK Rowling hates.. like Imani Khelif or Dylan Mulvaney..

I wish Laika would stop tormenting me by telling me all the cool stuff I'd get at the Fan First screening of Wildwoods... THERE ISN'T ONE IN MY STATE. I CAN'T GO. It's NOT MY FAULT. Stop teasing me about all the cool shit I could get.

Netflix's Willy Wonka Series Rotten Tomatoes Score Officially Breaks Audience Record After 20 Years

ok.. how the fuck is that absolute dumpster fire of a shite movie, Wonka (2023) beating both Wonka adaptations? Like.. they are both light years better than that trash. screenrant.com/netflix-wonk...

Can it be better than Chalamet, Depp, and Wilder's?

And that our cities are built poorly since if they were built well, we could walk, bike, or use public transport as options

I remake of a show like Hi Honey, I'm Home! would be fantastic in 2026.. and a great way to remind people that the TV version of the 1950s they want was never a reality.

So weird for me that comics are still reviled and looked down upon as "kids stuff" when so many are written for an adult audience and even the ones for kids are vastly better written than Harry Potter.

Wonderful and brilliant. Inspired. And followed by a thousand laugh emojis of salty old men who can’t understand why everything isn’t made for them anymore.

The hate for Scrappy Doo and Godzooky is so forced.
