The amazing artist who did the pixel art for Preserving Worlds and the Sarasota Half in Dream poster is going through a really harsh time right now. If you can spare anything, help him and his partner out! They're lovely people who need a hand.

This has got to be the hardest a double page spread in a manga has ever gone.

In September, a box of old film reels was donated to the Library's National Audio-Visual Conservation Center. One of them was a nearly 130-year-old, long-lost film by iconic French filmmaker George Méliès. It had not been seen by anyone in likely more than a century. 🧵 blogs.loc.gov/loc/2026/02/...

Frederick Wiseman - rare case where a 96-year-old filmmaker’s death feels tragic because they had so much more left to do. Uninterrupted streak of curiosity, empathy, wisdom, and quiet anger, ended only by the reality of living in a human body.
