Hey if you gotta take some pills do you take them in *increasing* size or *decreasing* size? 🤔 (I am "big pill" challenged... 🫣)

really wild seeing how social media platforms over the past several years have basically entirely captured and disempowered 'word of mouth'
Delilah S. Dawson@delilahsdawson.bsky.social · 3d agoAfter some time in publishing, you begin to see that there is pretty much nothing the author can do to move the needle. Social media no longer sells books, at least when instigated by the author; it has to get viral from an outside source, and even there, lightning does not strike twice.
I haven't rooted for a movie this hard since years. I hope it demolishes the box office and is a huge hit. Here's is my new tribute poster to one of my favorite Looney Toons character and one of most anticipated movies of the year, "Coyote Vs. ACME". #coyotevsacme #film #poster #keyart
new zine! HOW AND WHY TO ORGANIZE A BOOK & ZINE SWAP: Running a book and zine swap is easier than you might think! This 20-page quarter-letter-size zine will help you choose a location, decide what to bring, and how to promote your event.
the entire Chinese internet has embraced what's basically a work of outsider art; a terribly animated film about a cow's dream made by a mother-son team and distributed by a former interior decoration company. It's now made millions at the box office.
Accented Cinema@accentedcinema.bsky.social · 6d agoNiu Lai (lit. Cow Come) was released without a press kit. Movie theaters in China have begun making their own posters. Surprisingly, not an AI in sight, just ppl living in the mement.
It's a pleasure to have worked with @whitefoxdesigns.net to create a new logo for Jammyness :) I wanted something to use on my products and overall branding, and I'm excited to have this to use going forward. Thank you @whitefoxdesigns.net 👍🌱

People are so Capitalism-pilled that they see "user number big" as preferable + a reason Bluesky is "lesser" than other social media. But consider this: I don't want to be in a bigger, angrier, shittier crowd of people. I want to be in the smaller, curated, better behaved and more loyal crowd.
In case you missed it yesterday: The Goblin Throne is complete! For the first time, you can read this whole dang 140 page adult lesbian horror romance in one sitting. www.thegoblinthrone.com/comic/001/

One of the most unique comics I got at Perth Comic Arts Festival is this zine that is a paper airplane that tells a story about in-flight emotions as you unfold it. (By J. Harris, @harrinaut on instagram)
So, we need to talk about webtoons(the company) has done to webcomics Over the past 7 or so years, we've seen this absolute shift in expectation, migration, and stagnation in the webcomics sphere which applies to style, sustainability, and the platforms grip on readers and creators
Word of mouth is basically the only way small team projects can gain any traction. People hate ads with a passion, and ignore creators when they pitch their own work. But people will give something a chance when a person they know says they like something
Casey Explosion@caseyexplosion.bsky.social · 2w ago"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!
TOMORROW! I'm excited to debut two new zines! COMEBACK TOUR: a Vanlife travelogue about my adventures in New Zealand (with a few stops on my way home - Melbourne, Singapore and Seoul!) THIS IS ME IN PARADISE 1: A Riso collection of my autobio comics, limited run of 60. New stickers!
in which @annaleen.bsky.social asks us to dream big: “What if we gave public transportation the same amount of money that investors have given to AI? With billions of dollars, what could transit do? And how might it transform our cities and lives?” www.coyotemedia.org/funding-bay-...
A Modest Proposal for Funding Transit Instead of AI
In the ’60s, the Bay Area almost got a high-speed train from Marin to San Jose. What could happen if we dreamed big again?

I recently finished reading Reverse Centaur. It was interesting, I think it's very timely in the sense that I think the concepts are useful in this moment but aren't going to be "timeless". The framework of "Centaur" vs "Reverse Centaur" for assessing different AI applications is useful.
Hey Vancouver, next Sunday I'll be at the Summer Gander! It's in Mount Pleasant this time (316 W 5th Ave, near Olympic Village station) Free to attend, should be a chill time 🤗💜 I'll have some new zines... 👀
