Gimme a short stack of comics, a platter of jazz, a cup of soccer, and a smoky side of noir.

Will anyone—anyone at all—ask Trump about the rape allegations published in an official report by the House Judiciary Democrats? Or will he continue to escape accountability for his violence?

ChatGPT is adding the signatures of real New Yorker cartoonists to its AI-generated images. So far, I've found the signatures of more than 15 contributors. "It’s slop, and unlike the other slop that I’ve encountered, this is slop that’s pretending to be me." www.niemanlab.org/2026/10/chat...

Why is EVERY experience ruined now? Somebody’s got A FUCKING DRONE hovering over the #MontereyJazzFestival arena. During a BALLAD.

At the #MontereyJazzFestival for the first time in a few years. Time from gate entrance to randomly running into someone I know: 18 minutes.

The older I get, the more clear it is that all our safety and well-being is intertwined. The same forces pushing racism are targeting trans people and immiserating the disabled and extracting everything they can from all of us. We gotta stand up for everyone because everyone is all of us.

THE PREMISE IS THE MUPPET SHOW!!!!!

DiscussingFilm@discussingfilm.net

There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival. Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on. (Source: Deadline)

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

the lessons we need to take are clear. Dolly said "find out who you are and do it on purpose", and Tim Curry's line is "don't dream it, be it" they would both be disappointed if we wrote that off as corny. so what? it's necessary. we have everything to lose if we are dishonest to ourselves.

Okay. Here's the deal. We have lost... pretty much the unanimous moral foundation of our nation. The imperative now. The only way forward. Is to be the kind of person Dolly would have been proud of.

The president is refusing to spend taxpayer money assisting Americans suffering from natural disasters solely because their states didn't vote for him. I know there are a thousand scandals at the moment, but this one deserves some more oxygen at every level.

Don Moynihan@donmoyn.bsky.social

Is this just business as usual in politics? No. Approval rates of federal disaster aid requests were about the same regardless of the state and did not vary much with the party of the President. This graph powerfully conveys the scale of the partisan discrimination now.

I feel like an issue that would connect well with voters would be doing anything at all to slow the current progression toward "absolutely everything now is a scam"

Onward! I've always loved this album cover. For the photo shoot, ya think they told Kirk, "Yeah man, we're all bringing our instruments, so bring em. Yeah, like all of em." Then he got out there and was like, "Goddamnit." 1962. #jazzsky, #nowplaying

Seconded! This series is great fun.

I've really been enjoying Destination Kill by Joe Palmer for Oni Press - superb art and writing in a crazy near-future sci-fi series. I feel like if books that read as well as this aren't being talked about, there's no point making indie comics for the direct market any more.

I think the thing I resent most about gen AI- and this is a selfish thing to say but it’s true- is that it’s put an asterix on my sense of wonder. What I mean is that now when I see an amazing or beautiful image I can’t have that initial “wow!” reaction. I doubt. I have to verify. I hate it.
