I posted this last week without comment, but I'm going to comment now. The people who established the system of museums in the West had a very specific reason for doing so: they thought that having an appreciation for the wonders of the world was absolutely necessary for being a good citizen.

There's an unconfirmed story about my grandpa saving a kid who had his head stuck in the bars of the lion cage at the zoo, and he bent the bars with his bare hands to save the kid from hungry lions. I think I was told it when I was five, and half a century later I still believe it.

This Flock camera is running obsolete, end-of-life software. - It's on Android 8.1, released in 2017, support ended in 2021 - It's on Android patch level 2018-06-5 - It's running Linux 3.18, released in 2017 This shit is like 8 or 9 years old, and full of vulnerabilities.

HaJ3FgupAm8RrDJW3MHgT9X7Ft27eVaD What is that? That's a hard-coded API token that Flock cameras use to identify themselves and get OAuth credentials, which can then be used to talk to Flock's production servers. Like, anyone on the internet can probably do this right now.

This is an example of an artist standing up for what they believe in, at the cost of what is likely a big chunk of money. This is how it's done. I'm impressed.

May 1995. Grateful Dead and Chuck Berry. I got in trouble at work and had to work. My brother took my girlfriend to the show. Jerry Garcia died a few months later. I never got to see either performer.

About 4 years back, there was one single seat for ZZ Top and Cheap Trick in the front row that was left unsold and somehow affordable (about $200 I think). I bought it. I was going to be as close as possible to Billy Gibbons and Rick Nielsen. Frank Beard got Covid, show canceled, never rescheduled.

Metallica, Feb 5, 1993. Front row or the 2nd level - good seats for a college kid. My friend was jealous because I'd planned in advance. I told him he could have my ticket if I broke my leg. Played 2v2 basketball about 4 hours before the show with a friend and 2 girls. 1/2

There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

Friends, it isn't "guillotine logic" to suggest punishing people for crimes they definitely committed using a perfectly legal sentence for that crime.

My thoughts on Image publishing a new Warren Ellis book.

I have spent the day re-reading the entirety of SoManyOfUs.com, including every testimonial. I’ve also re-read dozens of documents and communications from the transformative justice action SMOU-TJ and Warren Ellis started. I wanted to remember the hope I held at that time. I also wanted to see if I could approach this moment with gratitude instead of anger.
To believe in transformative justice is to believe people capable of change. But, as our mediator said during the process, “transformation is heartbreak.” It is crushing and painful, but it is also our right as human beings. I haven’t spoken to Warren Ellis in over 6 years. I don’t know who he is now. I don’t know how he’s changed, but I’m sure he has. I know Warren read all of SoManyOfUs.com and I can’t imagine an outcome where doing so doesn’t change you. But, as Kai Cheng Thom says, “Change is inevitable, growth is optional.” I was often sad that Warren, when confronted with the consequences of his actions, didn’t react in the way I expected him to. But I am grateful it led to me untangling 15 years of complicated feelings and hurtful actions.
I’m grateful that I believe we can change and hold ourselves accountable in this world. But, quoting our mediator again, “being called to accountability feels like being reminded that your shit stinks. and coming clean is hard to do.” It can feel impossible to look in the mirror and confront the worst version of ourselves. Without having the necessary support systems in place to make it possible, I don’t blame or fault anyone for not being able to do it.
We all tried our best. When our attempt at a community accountability action failed, I was disappointed, but grateful that we tried. And grateful to know that Warren had tried, too.

I currently work as an editor in comics, with books I work on being published by Image. I love comics. I love the comics community and how we all keep making them despite it being so hard, with no financial security, and no safety nets. I see groups within the community doing so much good and fighting hard to make the industry more sustainable and safer for everyone involved.
But there is no set process for anyone in the comics community to account for our actions and change our behaviour after harm or abuse has happened. This has led many people to be forced out of the industry – victims, perpetrators, and witnesses. My heart hurts for all the people who were bullied, ostracized, shunned, or threatened out of this community, particularly those I spoke to back in June and July of 2020, impacted by Warren’s actions. I hope one day this changes.
I’m grateful to everyone who was wondered if Warren has “made amends to the satisfaction of all involved.” It shows me solidarity and care are widespread within comics. I wouldn’t say I’m satisfied, but I also would say I am no longer personally invested in Warren’s transformation.
I am personally invested in the books I work on that come out with Image, and I really hope you don’t take any disappointment you feel in Image’s actions out on the creators whose work they publish. Seeing people boycotting Image comics feels a cruel joke when that directly affects my livelihood and that of the people who respect and support me. But I get it – this seems like a financial decision from Image, so respond in a financial fashion. I hope we can all keep ourselves open to change in the future.
My resolve to expand my capacity to hope for change – after a night of anger and crying and shouting – is renewed. Thanks for hearing me out and for reading all of this.

I totally get this - I've never found Gambit even remotely interesting and reading his dialogue, even when written by MASTERS OF THE CRAFT makes me want to ... I dunno ... see Gambit die by opening the Ark of the Covenant.

Jean Grey was mildly interesting as Marvel Girl. She was interesting when she died 1000 years ago as Phoenix. Every iteration then has stunk, because the Phoenix Force is stupid.

I think he doesn't know the difference between 'vaccines' and 'IVs'. So he thinks that when a baby gets 5 vaccines, they hook up 5 IVs to the baby. I don't think anyone needs to feed him any bullshit, I think his brain is that soft. "Needle" "the letter V" "scary".

On the other hand... I am a Spider-Man fan. I'm a fan of the comics, the tv shows, the movies, all of it. There were three bad guys in this movie. Jean Grey (a monster), the Damage Control guy, and Spider-Man. I can't believe after all these years... Jameson was right. 1/

Punisher accidentally sent back in time, arrested, put in a chain gang and is chained up with Jonah Hex. They break out, get the bad guy (the corrupt sheriff), save the girl (the sheriff was going to marry her or the city would take her father's farm), and get Frank back to 21st Century NYC.

Saw them at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland at a sold out show last night. I get to about 50 shows a year (almost all club/bar/basement/garage) and I have to say - this show fucking rocked. Their new album is great, they're great, and... if you like rock and roll, listen to Die Spitz
