Astonishing really how ADHD-denialism so closely matches early trans-denialism (say, a decade ago, before it went mask-off eliminationist), to the point that it includes the exact same personalities, again vomiting their know-nothing opinions all over the place.

What a surprise, the organizers of the covid cautious dyke bar hated the article, rejected its framing, and is defending their covid cautious patrons and performers. Anyone who joined in on the viral harassment campaign started by Jesse Singal wanna say oops or…? recorder.com/2026/09/24/g...
Current and former owners of Last Ditch could not be reached by phone, email or social media. However, Last Ditch did share on Instagram that the Globe story allegedly misconstrued statements from Noire, and urged community members to stop harassing Noire.
"It is neither productive, progressive, nor valiant to attack a Black patron. He has been a collaborator and performer of Last Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his mind about accountability and repair from the bar," the Last Ditch statement reads. "There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization of the Globe article. He did not call for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
"As a result of this abysmal journalism, he has been getting additional threats, slurs, harassment, and is being reported to the police over something he did not do," Last Ditch continued. "This is not supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is, at its core, anti-Blackness hysteria."

Trolling the libs for clicks has actual consequences and this isn’t ethical journalism. The Boston Globe is celebrating its new subscribers or whatever but they should be ashamed. This is punching down.

If you're wondering why so many comics people are po'd about the Publishers Weekly PR stunt for an "AI" "graphic novel publisher" is because the whole piece is an insult to the hard work people do to make comics. No element can just be outsourced to a machine and then traced and not look like crap.

It’s so cute to see everyone having fun with this,you might enjoy the other story about Covid this morning, about a young mom with long covid who killed herself, possibly partially because her husband describes it as her being “obsessed” with her health and “refusing” to get out of bed. Funny, yeah?

The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, next to a stick figure labeled “AI”. The stick figure says, “my outputs look just like yours now.”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. Above her we see text reading “I think”.
The third panel zooms in closer on Sarah’s face. Text above her reads “you missed”.
The fourth panel shows Sarah drawing happily in a sunlit room. The text above her reads “the point”.

I used to retell my stories from that day. I have them, of course. Everyone does. But as someone who didn’t lose anyone, or wade through the smoke, I’m particularly concerned, in this historical moment, about avoiding any sense of nostalgia about victimhood in the heart of empire.

Two things it’s hard to convey if you weren’t alive back then: the extremity of hysteria, nationalism and Islamophobia the attack prompted, and how efforts to capture this can inadvertently obscure how Islamophobic things already were.

There are a few things I'll never forget about this stupid experience. One was my partner calling to ask if I was okay, because their dad had just seen my name on CNN at his gym and gotten worried. The other was getting calls on my personal phone from men saying they were going to rape and kill me.

Not beating the nazi allegations.
A social media screenshot of a post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) featuring a graphic titled "UNITED STATES SPACE FORCE SERVICE DRESS UNIFORM — NEXT GENERATION —" alongside the official Space Force delta logo.
​The image showcases a full uniform concept worn by a male model against a dark gray background:
​Uniform Views: Full front and back views depict a dark slate gray tunic and matching trousers tucked into knee-high, polished black leather riding boots. The jacket features a high Mandarin-style collar, black epaulets, and a black belt with a rectangular silver buckle.
​Design Inspiration: A text block notes the design is "inspired by the discipline and functionality of the Starship Trooper uniform, modernized for the Guardians of the space domain."
​Color Palette: Swatches listed include Space Gray, Midnight Black, Silver Gray, and Satin Black.
​Detailed Insets: Close-up panels highlight the collar insignia, shoulder piping detail, sleeve patch with the Space Force delta, belt buckle, a peaked "Service Dress Cap," and rank insignia examples ranging from O-1 to O-7.

a letter so utterly unsurprising that it goes right back to being shocking
DEAR JOE MATT,
PEEPSHOW IS BRILLIANT. YOUR WORK HAS BEEN A BIG INFLUENCE ON MY SONGWRITING. I FEEL LIKE COMICS AND POP MUSIC ARE ANALAGOUS (QUASI) ART FORMS. COMICS HAS IT'S "CONANS"; MUSIC HAS IT'S IRON MAIDENS. COMICS HAS IT'S "CEREBUSES"; MUSIC HAS IT'S FUGAZIS. I FEEL LIKE THE NEW WEEZER ALBUM PINKERTON IS A LOT LIKE PEEPSHOW: YoU AND I BOTH ARE SHEDDING LIGHT ON OUR DESPICABLE IDS, WE BOTH FEEL GUILTY FOR WHAT WE UN-COVER, AND WE BOTH AIM TO CREATE WHAT YOU CALL A "COMPELLING WORK." WE BOTH ARE WORKING UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE HIGHER ARTS: YOU UNDER DA VINCI AND ME UNDER BEETHOVEN, AND YET WE BOTH ARE SOMEHOW ABOVE FLUFFY POP ENTERTAINMENT LIKE "ARCHIE" (FOR YOU AND THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK (FOR ME). WÉ'RE BOTH INCREDIBLY SLOW TO PRODUCE. AND WE BOTH LIKE ASIAN GIRLS.
KEEP JERKIN' OFF.

Consistently masking at conventions is unpleasant, uncomfortable, and sometimes chafes my ears. But as I have not added severe illness to this year's carousel of exhaustion, I am glad to continue doing it, and continue to recommend it to my peers.

When I was 18, I developed vasculitis. I was hospitalized for a week, and then was told by a doctor I had anxiety. A year + later I had a life threatening flare (when diagnosed), and as a result I'm on the day-to-day more sick as a result of my chronic illness being disregarded a decade later.
