That is such a tasty cover, imagine it in a hardback edition with a low bossed title and high bossed spot gloss graphic element

Not that the Imperium from 40k is a model civilization but calling AI “abominable intelligence” kind of nailed it

JULES VERNE'S TOMB (1907) The monument, created by sculptor Albert Roze, shows the writer as a #revenant or returner from beyond the grave, reaching towards the sky. Its face was modelled on his death mask. Image: Amiens, France. #WyrdWednesday

Coloring and lettering aren't just mechanical aspects of the comic that can be changed, altered or even fully discarded on a whim. They're part of the finished piece. You can have new colorings sure, but they should be marketed as side projects, never as a replacement of the original. 3/

To take an example, all these "modern" recolorings of older comics show zero respect for the work of the original colorist and just casually erase their work in favor of something else. As if coloring isn't an art in itself. It's changing a core aspect of the original story. 2/

I think it's baffling that while most people would quickly agree that writing and art are integral components to a comic many people in charge seemingly think that coloration and lettering are not important and can just be changed at the drop of a hat. It's baffling to me, honestly. 1/

People want to do Hellraiser shit to the Liberty Mutual homunculus just for being annoying but I’m sure a store brand emoji will make them change their minds about the chatbot that wants to make deepfake porn of your child before talking them into killing themselves

Very grateful to have only had some fatigue and a 2010s Tumblr house style red nose as topical chemo side effects so far, and a good boy who can tell when I’m tired and howls like a dog until I lie down

Last dose of topical chemo, went looking for a reference book in our hoard and didn’t find it but found these two very seasonal TBR pile escapees to read instead, cheers y’all
Left: Something in the Blood: the Untold Story of Bram Stoker, the Man Who Wrote Dracula by the late lamented David J. Skal
Right: Botanical Curses and Poisons: the Shadow Lives of Plants by Fen Inkwright (disregard outdated name on cover)

So there is a fake Comic Fury app in the google play store (see pictured). Don't download this, it's not real. The real Comic Fury site is not owned by the developer and there are no microtransactions. Please help Kyo, the real creator and owner of Comic Fury, by reporting its ass.

A bay leaf, you ask with italics, but it gives a really subtle herbal note that pairs with the spices. Very Christmassy in a Mediæval Bæbes carols album kind of way

It is Cocoa Time once again, here is how I do it: full fat oat milk, tiny pinch of salt, cinnamon, ginger, cayenne, drop vanilla extract, small bay leaf, dark chocolate cocoa mix. Nice to haves: splash Cointreau, chopped up peanut butter cup or 100mg THC dark chocolate square, whipped cream

The cover of A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear: the Utopian Plot to Liberate an American Town (and Some Bears) by Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling, featuring a graphic outline of a bear over which is imposed a New England town skyline in red. A very funny and depressing book that has probably become much, much more depressing since I read it

Ollie’s cardio screening was vastly more expensive than the entirety of my skin cancer screening/labs/treatment combined, and that practice isn’t even private equity owned (so far)

Ok so situations keep adjusting and that's why I haven't made a solid post about this yet. Instead here's this thread, at least for now. HUGE thanks to everyone who's extended kindness either through sharing or donating some funds, you have no idea how much it means. Thread:

Finally starting topical chemo today and am profoundly grateful to everyone on here and elsewhere who reposted/donated/sent kind thoughts. Due to various boring Ailments I am a somewhat isolated person and having much more support than I imagined has meant more to me than you know
