So proud of my junior Senator for the award he received today. Part of the MAGA team making Missouri great again.

Surprised our 2 dogs did not disown us: around 4pm as my wife and I were prepping dinner I noticed the bowls we put the dog's food in for the day were empty. They get morning food and nighttime food put in the same prep bowls and then into their individual eating bowls...

The process I chose turned comic making upside down for me, and, honestly, creating stories in a new way is always invigorating for me. thehollowbane.com

Hollowbane' artwork is a unique blend of 3D sculptures, drawings and paintings, and collage. Hopefully the end result isn't recognizable as those things mashed together, but as something NEW. 🖌️ Live now on Kickstarter for 2 weeks only: thehollowbane.com

Just tuned in to Trump speaking live before the UN and he sounds tired. And after only a couple of minutes he is unbelievably embarrassing to our country.

Getting the 7-day free trial of Apple TV through Amazon and binging Widow's Bay is best money I've never spent. Five episodes in: the show is superb but is a "comedy" in the barest sense of the word.

Sometimes my wife and I feel that our dogs complaining about how their lives would be better if humans had never helped evolve them from wolves is just a little bit exageratted.

My latest read: The Tainted Cup--Robert Jackson Bennett. Promo blurbs include: twisty detective story, biopunk, noir, Holmes & Watson, mystery fantasy. What to a pair it with? Greene Ghost IPA for the biopunk alt-fantasy and Macguire's Draught Stout for the Holmes & Watson inspired detective noir.

Stephen Colbert was on Kimmel last night for a great segment. Comic fans should go to about 18.40 for a fun story about how Colbert got a Captain America shield from Marvel Comics and him passing it on to Kimmel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcUe...

I didn't manage to get advance signups on the campaign, which is a bad sign. But going to give it my all anyway. Are you you guys ready to help me shout from the rooftops about the Hollowbane campaign tomorrow? www.thehollowbane.com

The second segment of the "new" 60 Minutes did feel like a real investigative piece. And the last segment is a puff piece on sports that doesn't matter.

My wife and I face a conundrum Monday: do we watch the Primetime Emmy's--which we always do, or watch the KC Chiefs first game of the season--which we always do. It's like a Sophie's Choice decision but we only have to deal with one baby.

I finished Dave the Diver In the Jungle game--incredibly well-done DLC with a superb amount of new content and stuff to do. If you play it make sure you wait for the credits to end for a fun final scene and then you end up back in the village and can visit all the characters for final chats.

I promised everyone on Bluesky you'd get to see things first. 🫶 Here is my personal project I've been pouring myself into for quite a long time. I wanted to throw the conventional medium aside, go full blown mixed media, including 3-dimensional objects and sculptures, and to let all my weird out.

My wife (reluctantly) and I watched John Carpenter's The Thing after I first and last saw it when it came out in 1982 after seeing so many posts in recent years about how good it is. And Damn! It is a masterclass of claustrophobic, existentialist, slow-burn, survival horror...
