(Sorry to annoy with another shout-out.) If any publishers need short comics written for your horror or romance anthology, I'd be happy to pitch you something creepy or sweet! Camera Man #2 production is wrapping shortly, and my calendar is wide open for new work. linktr.ee/aleams

This is a good time to revisit a story we pubbed more than a year ago. The claims of safety/advantage have become accepted as fact. But they’re vastly inflated … or flatly untrue. assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

"amplify your people" is 100% the best strategy
I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Even cooler is: Spielberg watched the godawful dreck, filtered out everything but the visuals, and concluded "this cinematographer is brilliant, I wanna work with him" I remember seeing this in a theater as a young critic and thinking "that's one of the best looking terrible movies I've ever seen"

please please vote before election day, and tell your circles to. Republican mayors and governors are watching this unfold and getting ideas.
Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Don’t let the major companies control every bit of tech you touch. Tweak a few settings, or opt out of their options entirely. Either way, you win. www.eff.org/pages/welco...
