We lost Michael Zulli today. Beautiful, lyrical, mystical storyteller, he was part of the BW Boom of the 80s with his PUMA BLUES, he drew some gorgeous stuff for SANDMAN, and a startlingly fun book about Alice Cooper. All that’s just for starters. Some people, you think will always be out there.

It is not that anyone here would be interested at all, he lied, but the #CocteauTwins have just hours ago revamped and updated their YouTube page to finally include all their official videos over the years, in hi-def at that. So. You know. Not that anyone here would be interested as I said.

if you were going to spend decades in a lab concocting the six-word phrase that would instantly drive me irrevocably insane, you still wouldn't be able to come up with something more devastating than "Lin-Manuel Miranda street-gang musical" www.vulture.com/article/lin-...

Wow so not only is your sleep a time of quiet contemplation when you are not savaged by a sleep-paralysis demon like all the rest of us, but you’re also flippant about the devastating toll of bat-borne disease. Couldn’t be me but go off buddy

Just had one of those moments when we were sitting on the couch and thought “Man frozen yogurt would be GREAT right now” so we just got up and went out and got frozen yogurt. Sometimes one forgets that one can just… do that

Still marveling at Gorsuch's Ohio v. EPA opinion, in which he confused nitrogen oxide (a pollutant) with nitrous oxide (laughing gas). He did this five times, never once getting it right—in an opinion overruling the EPA's own expert scientific analysis! s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...

i’ll tell you what, man, if biden manages to survive and win another term, i hope he and his aides remember that it was mostly the ancient centrists — not the progressives and not the younger dems — who came behind up him with the knives, and that he responds in kind.

I'm pretty sure Robert Costa on CBS just referred to this photo of LBJ in agony while trying to talk about Biden and the weight of the office. But I debunked the popular misconceptions about this photo back in 2020.

Inspired by recent plane-based TikTok drama, a PSA: Videoing strangers in public is typically a foolish idea, not everything that happens in your vicinity is a true-crime saga, and minding your own business instead of maintaining 24/7 surveillance is good for you.

Classically, an establishing shot is needed to indicate every new scene, unless context makes it obvious. It’s possible to start scenes with a close-up for impact, but readers will subconsciously be tense/disoriented until you establish where we are in space & time. Don’t make them wait too long!
