Howdy, All! I just wanted to do my own ART SHARE so I can share the beautiful work of the artist who's working on the covers for my project! I am presenting only the completed cover at this time... but the artist is _amazing_ and I'd like them to get more commissions!

OUR 44th president. Let's finish what he started and guarantee healthcare for every American. 🇺🇸

In Seattle? Sad you missed the launch event for Dear Blind Lady? Good news for you, I’m BACK at Seattle Public Library on Nov 4! Registration required: www.spl.org/event-calend...

JD Vance: "Gas prices are too high ... they skyrocket every time some tinpot dictator decides to throw a tantrum"

*BOLSONARO: FEDERAL POLICE REQUESTED I GIVE THEM MY PASSPORT

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Omg no, he was so young. Damn. He was such a talented voice actor. It’s on the mind because I literally just watched it yesterday, but he got asked to do the taken monologue as porky pig and its a masterpiece

These two friends' anglerfish Halloween costumes are AMAZING!

Another evil layer to this ad from Josh Turek: When he turns to say "stop the nonsense from both extremes," he opens with a clip of Rep. Becca Balint, the first openly gay woman to represent Vermont in congress and one of the few openly gay members of congress.

Turek's positions are not "less than perfect." They are a direct threat to the lives of my trans friends and family. He IS the danger we must fight.

One interesting thing about #iHunt is that the numbers for bounties were mostly written before 150% inflation. In the first novel, $3,000 is a few months' rent for our hero. Now, it's barely one month.

I can't believe he's still at it, it's been days

It always comes back to this for me; if AI was so good, such a disclosure would be a selling point. If AI was everything these slop jockeys said it was, they should be proud to let people know their game was AI made. But the proof is in the pudding, and they can't stand that people don't want it.

The whole world no longer smells like cigarettes.

This collection contains all the PDFs for First and Second Edition Mutants & Masterminds. I highly recommend picking this up, even if you don't play the game. The source material itself it seriously worth the price! #Superhero #RPG #Tabletop #RolePlayingGame www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/mu...

I used to think consultants were telling the Democrats to abandon poor people and queer people and immigrants. But now I know consultants are in fact getting incredibly rich telling the Democrats to do these things

Sen. Susan Collins said there was "no way" for her to anticipate that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh would vote to overturn Roe v. Wade when she voted to confirm him in 2018. As one abortion rights advocate explained, that's "just a flat-out lie."

Appearing on Fox News over the weekend, border czar Tom Homan gave the starkest indication yet that the administration is moving forward with plans to “denaturalize” Rep. Ilhan Omar, stripping her of U.S. citizenship status that she’s had since she was 17 years old.

What's extremely telling is that there is never once an article like this written from the perspective of the person who cut off their parent.

Remember kids, a rich bigot torturing her economic inferiors to death is fine because there's no rule against it, but if a poor mouths off at her that's worse than ten holocausts

So I spent most of the last 24 hours fighting with nondisableds on threads about disabled people’s access to emergency egress and emergency notification systems that actually work for us. It was a reminder that nondisabled naievete about actual disabled experiences is very very real.

I am rewatching An American Werewolf in London for the first time in forty years. The practical FX by Rick Baker, a master of the art, not only hold up, they are FAR better than a lot of rushed/low-budget/interfered-with digital FX of today. The transformation scene is amazing.

For you youngs who weren't alive for this: Understand that the Chicks were an early rollout of the far right intimidation that we see targeting judges, members of Congress, and ICE protestors now.

Here he is! Accelerator - the fastest man alive in the Henchverse - written up as a playable character in DISRUPTORS! This is like the first sheet for the Auditor - though in this case, he's presented as a Teen Alter, and perhaps the only speedster in that setting. As before, image & pdf!

I gotcha

If Gavin Newsom runs for president in 2028, remember whose side he was on in the fight to rein in the wealth and power of billionaires in California. With @wkamaubell.bsky.social

On Thursday October 22nd I’ll be at Booked in Evanston (Chicagoland) to talk with the delightful Lulu Miller about Dear Blind Lady as well! www.bookedevanston.com/book-launch-...

"The damage Trump has done to US power, to the US image, to the int'l order in just 2 years is stunning. If Trump is backed into a corner & gets even more erratic & extremist, which seems quite possible, who knows what will happen on the int'l stage. It’s not clear who or what could constrain him."

These people are such unbelievable losers.

California’s billionaires have a combined net worth of $2.4 trillion. Under Prop 40, their net worth would fall to…just under $2.3 trillion. What amounts to a rounding error for them would allow millions of their fellow Californians to afford healthcare. Vote yes on Prop 40.

The hell of a thing is that this could easily come from Miller’s people, Vance’s, or career Foggy Bottom. They all hate him.

Here’s the Model 118 ConvAirCar from 1947. “World’s first flying car” is bullshit.

My heart breaks for mathematicians whose lives and careers are being destroyed by AI — and especially this PhD student, who doesn’t even know he is a poet

here's Bruce Blakeman tonight claiming "I never said that I would cut Medicaid in half" -- immediately followed by a clip of him saying on Fox Business in June that "we make sure we cut Medicaid in half"

I am entirely serious when I say that this should be seen as a moderate position. It specifically and surgically dismantles institutions that did not exist pre-9/11 and assigns their functions much as they were assigned pre-9/11.

I'm of the opinion that redeeming him was the biggest mistake of the entire sequel trilogy The ENTIRE MESSAGE of his role in the first two entries was that he rejected every attempt at redemption and doubled down on being a massive piece of shit Embrace that! He doesn't get a good ending!

Kyle's girlfriend Alex says he can't wear another hero's uniform; he needs a new identity, a costume of his own. Kyle agrees and uses his ability as a graphic designer and artist to come up with something new. - Green Lantern #51, May 1994 by @ronmarz.bsky.social, Darryl Banks & Romeo Tanghal
