When I was a kid, when we drove to Chicago, we'd visit the downtown Kroch's & Brentano's which (at the time) felt HUGE. I'd find Michael Moorcock, John Wyndham, and Fritz Leiber books I'd never heard of (no internet back then). A treasure trove every time.

I miss big bookstores. As a kid one of my favorite things was to go to Borders with my parents in the mall. I'd bum around the fantasy section checking out all the new titles while my dad looked for obscure German language lit with a brief duck in to the music section.

Please help my friend and immensely talented artist get a very needed MRI. Our country is broken so let's help each other as best we can 💕

Alright, it was suggested to me that I actually crowdfund the out of pocket cost for the lumbar MRI since my insurance keeps denying the day before the appt even w/ it as an important order. I will have more info in the replies as well. I was honestly hesitant but... ko-fi.com/portaltohades

To be honest I was more familiar with Manga and European comics, too, so it was news to ME the writer wasnt considered an extraneous extra hired arm. Consider how often manga is simply an artist beasting out and doing both the writing and the artwork (though they do have a team for that)

I grew up on French comics and manga, which has very different cultures. when I moved to North America I never could get into the mainstream comics here, and I was always confused why writers of comics were treated as the real author when they didn't do all the work

an artist is a storyteller by nature but writing is a specific skillet, one I don't have a lot of confidence in. @moonsheen.bsky.social is the entire reason you know my name. we're so 50/50 in what we do that I really only consider 'writer' an 'artist' descriptors of what our skill tasks are

I respect that of all things Wilson finds without fault, it was Robert Pattinson as Antinous because he was having the time of his fucking life in that role and who could deny him that?

EMILY WILSON@emilyrcwilson.bsky.social · last wk.

9. By far my favorite thing in the film is Robert Pattinson's hilarious and sexy Antinous. If anyone ever wants to make a spin off TV series with Antinous risen from the dead to mess with other mythical households, I would be so there for it.

I loved the movie but yeah this in retrospect was a disappointing cut. A lot of Penelope and Odysseus' wiliness were sacrificed for Theme, unfortunately.

I knew, I KNEW that guy would cut the climactic aristeia where the man who lied his way across the Aegean is tricked into telling the truth, and you understand why this is the person he never could have given up on getting back to. Because he doesn't get why it's important
