I like comics, and I'm a charter member of the Kieron Dwyer fan club. In other comic news: FINISH BLACK MONDAY MURDERS OR WE RIOT. My two favourite baseball teams are the Red Sox and whoever is playing the Yankees.

I backed the Good Omens graphic novel kickstarter back before the Gaiman news broke. There was a window to get my money back, but ultimately decided that I didn't want to take money away from Doran. After it was too late for a refund, they told me the shipping cost, which was in British pounds (!)
got hit with a $17 shipping fee for a crowdfunded book that cost $30 these high, post-campaign shipping fees are also in part responsible for reduced backer numbers on smaller campaigns imo ... i know they're transparent, but it's still a change to the model and very consumer unfriendly

"According to Trump"....okay, sure, well then you can certainly bank on its accuracy. Jesus Christ, what are we doing
“.. According to Trump, Pichai responded: ‘No, no, no — this time I’m not doing it… Oceans are different, sir. They cover really a lot of countries. Please don’t ask us to do that.’” @variety.com $GOOGL variety.com/2026/digital...

If you're assets less your liabilities is $1MM, then you're a millionaire. If you sell your house for a mil and use it to pay off the 975K you owe on your mortgage.....sorry.
Speaking of money, help settle something: I always thought a millionaire was somebody who earned a million dollars a year. But apparently there is another camp that thinks a millionaire is someone whose *total assets* are a million dollars or more. Which is correct?
Lord Jesus Christ Almighty. I don't have the words. Well, except this one: YES. www.techspot.com/news/114234-...

Got some Green Lantern, some Iron Man some Spidey, another opportunity to listen to a @goshgollywow.bsky.social pod. Bishop purchase was definitely beer-influenced. What If looks fun. Chipping away at Secret Wars.
