I am honored to announce that in cooperation with the Toth family, I will be working on the official Alex Toth typeface in the coming months. The plan is for this to be a commercially available font via the official Toth estate. Stay tuned for updates.
McMorrow right behind him at the podium. He's saying all the generous, necessary, conciliatory things about Stevens.

Can't read it because I don't subscribe, but my gosh, this headline alone makes my whole morning! Thanks, @wsj.com, lol!
The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com · 14h agoNew York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
Every elected Republican is now a Max Miller Republican. Hang that around their necks every damn day.

This is maybe the perfect example of @gregpak.net bit that replacing every instance of “AI” with “cocaine” gets to the deeper truth of the attitude.

1. the whole "disappointing night" thing is pure cope. El-Sayed beat the establishment candidate despite being outspent 10:1, that's an earthquake 2. primary polls are just not great and everyone needs to spend the next week going really, really hard for Peggy Flanagan
I had to code and pronounce a time of death on a respiratory therapist colleague. There's a memorial plaque for her outside the emergency department to this day. I wrote and re-wrote my will. I will never forgive these ghouls trying to rewrite history and deny our experience.
Gabriel Bosslet@gbosslet.bsky.social · 3d agoRFK Jr said these words today on national television "There were ICUs that were empty all over the country including in New York at the height (of the pandemic)" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You are a fucking idiot hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <sobs silently>
As a little kid I developed a serious dislike for Stan Lee based solely on the idea that he was responsible for making Spider-Man’s life so hard.
Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.
Reminder that Politico is bad. (We fucken won. I dunno; that's what I wanted!)

Hey, 9/10 review for PREDATOR VS. PLANET OF THE APES #1! I accept this very fair critique: "Still no smart aleck giant brains in jars aka The Inheritors. Very disappointing."

No matter the margin the story is that Haley Stevens got $70M of support, more than $30M of it from a single organization, and still lost.

This is genuinely great. I like McMorrow a lot more than I liked her campaign team. Time to come together and win the general. Stevens also made some good gestures in the last 24 hours; here’s hoping she carries through.

Trump's guy is losing to someone who isn't even running anymore because his name is Amir Hassan and though he's an evangelical Christian, MAGAts assume he's Muslim. Who could've seen that coming?
The Downballot@the-downballot.com · 12h agoSeems like an upset might be brewing in the GOP primary in #MI08 to take on Dem Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet. Trump endorsed Amir Hassan, but he currently trails an absolute nobody who suspended his campaign a month ago by a wide margin.

The path to a Democratic House majority runs through Michigan’s 7th. Let’s send Trump’s rubber stamp, Tom Barrett, packing and elect @wewill2026.bsky.social to fight for us!
I couldn’t be prouder of the movement we’ve built in mid-Michigan. Thank you, Ambassador Bridget Brink and Matt Maasdam, for your years of public service and all your hard work on the campaign trail. While tonight we celebrate, there’s still much more work ahead.
Yup. I only found out about this by terrible, terrible accident and every time I see the words OneDrive I wanna yeet my laptop into geosynchronous orbit.
