If I make comics and infographics for adults I think of porn but this isn’t porn, it’s to understand technical & take notes. Maybe if I say comics for grown ups it doesn’t sound so creepy? My project for off-season II at founders inc @comicexplain www.comicexplain.com

there are so many works of classic lit that i read as a kid and never returned to. but every time i do re-read them having, you know, lived in the world for a while, i'm so glad i did. i was a smart kid, but there's no substitute for context.

As of last night, there are now *7* pastors, former pastors and seminarians who've become Democratic nominees running for Congress. Some have already won safe Dem seats, and several are in hotly contested races. In multiple cases, the GOP has attacked their faith. religionnews.com/2026/08/04/p...

'They're not real pastors': As clergy run as Democrats, Republicans question their faith

(RNS) — 'It's a sign that they are really scared they're gonna lose this seat,' the Rev. Sarah Trone Garriott, a Lutheran pastor running for Congress in Iowa, said. She is part of a wave of religious ...

😵‍💫 I can’t believe smoking is in again. My grandfather died of a very painful lung cancer because of smoking. This is as bad as the anti vax movement … ugh 😩 I had Christian fundamentalist cousins die of Covid cuz they refused the vaccine. What next a rejection of medicine?

I'm Generation X, but I remember childhood in florida was so much more violent than what I see going on in SF or even oakland today. is it just my imagination? like fistfights & racial stuff (white power skinheads vs Puerto Ricans etc) was pretty normal. kids today seem less violent

Having a ton of fun at my startup pre accelerator at founders inc but the only negative thing is that as a middle aged woman it’s hard to keep my portions down 🤓🤣🤣🤣 I’m surrounded by a lot of 20 something young guys eating massive amounts of food with no consequences

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

what's confusing to people who grew up working class is that long-term stuff like surfing & bicycling is actually cheaper than most sports - it's just the up front costs. once you get the kit, you don't have to pay $$$. and the community is SOOOO good

Seeing foreigners on bikes exploring Marin and sf is the best! It’s like seeing tourists from abroad experiencing Central Park in the fall for the first time 🥰🥰🥰 so much better views and love than a bus imho

I’m still mystified at why grocery food is so superior in even poorer Oakland & Berkeley than around the marina. Isn’t the point of rich people to make fabulous erewohn exist? There isn’t even an arizmendi bakery near ft mason or incredible produce or a delightful cheese store

This is a tremendous opportunity to get on the ground floor of a media start-up that is an important and brilliant evolution in how fact-based news is shared. You hear a lot about the evil of Big Tech. These are the Good Guys.
