whenever i read articles in the hollywood press about cutting costs in tv production i think “man, if only you had a vast workforce trained in making world class tv shows in eight days with two cameras, a reasonably nimble second unit, and a budget of under four million dollars an episode…”

Black and white photo of a shorthaired tuxedo tabby kitten on a floor next to a black, old fashioned candlestick type telephone. The kitten is sitting up on its haunches with its paws against the mouthpiece, peering into it curiously. Another kitten can be seen a couple feet away, blurry but you can see its sleeping in the upright loaf position.

To mark the occasion, we teamed up with @davis.social to create a comic illustrating what Bluesky is all about. See if you can spot the easter eggs! 👀 [1/3]
A multi-panel comic. Two characters stand amidst a pile of rubble. One says, 'I think it's time to leave old social. This keeps happening. I have to start over again. I'm tired.' The two characters board a boat. Jay says, 'Don't worry! Better things are ahead at Bluesky!' They arrive to a beautiful, festive area that has buildings labeled News, Discover, Art, Science, and more.
