Fun fact: If you’re working on a drawing of Brad Boimler or Misato Katsuragi, you’ll use the exact same marker color palette for both characters.

WAIT MOOPSY TOO??

This guy never served. He faked an injury to avoid the draft. None of his children have served. He called those who did serve their country "suckers and losers." He skipped the centenary memorial for servicemen who died in WWI because it was drizzling. This is more than usually repellent.

holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!

By the time I’m done writing the series finale, I’ll have written EIGHTY-FIVE episodes & a whole bunch of extras for EVA-Trek purely on my own, without having to ever touch AI to cheat a single goddamn word. It’s so much more satisfying to do this all myself. Algorithms can kiss my ass.

Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

Nothing but respect for my first high school seinen anime:

Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

"No amount of spin can sugarcoat the utter disaster of layoffs, creative consolidation, and sheer mediocrity that awaits if Richie Rich runs roughshod over the industry he claims to love so much." Get 'im, @mcastimovies.bsky.social!

Not only is David Ellison lying about his film plan, it's not even a good lie

Paramount Skydance CEO and heir apparent David Ellison is very upset that the media landscape can see right through him.

First-degree burn from the crowd that looks like melted action figures drawn from memory

I'm going to draw all Voy senior crew in TOS uniform. Here's NURSE Tom, lol #StarTrek #StarTrekVoyager

Aww, damn - I can’t believe I just learned that Ned Comstock passed away a couple years ago. Ned was a legendary librarian with USC’s Cinematic Arts Library who knew more about the vast collections there than anyone. I got to meet him a few times during research trips & he was always a joy.

I swear to all that is holy, I know far too fucking much about RFK Jr’s hygiene practices than my closest friends and family members. Everything about this timeline sucks, man. Ev. Er. Y. Thing.

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

getting tired of people on the left still launching substack newsletters after all the reporting on that company in recent years

I'm going to be at STLV this weekend! Specifically at the 60 Years of Star Trek Showrunners panel on the main stage. SAT 8/8 @ 12:45. A roundtable about how Star Trek has evolved w/ Brannon Braga, Ron Moore, Terry Matalas, Michelle Paradise, Mike McMahan, Andre Bormanis and Kevin & Dan Hageman.

Look, you can’t label the ground floor of a building as BL without my manga-coded brain going to a predictable place…

"Bluesky is a political echo chamber" okay but I'm mostly here to chat with fun internet people and post art and make jokes, I cannot stress how much I don't care

Y’know, I’ve been writing EVA-Trek for so long I tend to think about my versions of the Evangelion characters now by default instead of their canon counterparts. There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t think about some aspect of the series. I’m so damn deep into the world of the USS Nerv.

That said, let us take a moment to thank our Bluesky Trans and Furry Elders for freaking out Jack Dorsey so much he bolted and left us this nice social media playground, taking most of his crypto chuds with him. We thank you for your service.
