next is naming the department of health and human services the department of pestilence #christiscoming

Disney investing in OpenAI is way worse than if they just took licensing money. They now have a financial stake in the success of AI art.

What movie do you consider “perfect?

Something I think about a lot is how in comics there’s a golden age and a silver age and a Bronze Age and just everything after 1990, over a period longer than the three prior combined we just call everything MODERN.

Hey Rob, have you done any recent podcasts on the subject?

Dude I can’t stop thinking about it. It is the definition of losing the plot just to win the argument.

I try not to be political on my social media but then find myself wondering why no one seems to be paying attention to Adriana Smith

I saw a comment saying how Norah Horwitz accomplished so much in editing at such a young age, but she was so prolific, dynamic, and confident, even just from the couple years I knew her as a still teenaged intern at Marvel, almost two decades ago. I am completely saddened by the news of her death.

My kids 5&7 dig Robots In Disguise…. It has a very formulaic (in a good way especially for kids) approach with a villain of the week, think Voltron from when we were their age

Would you be interested in a hypothetical Ultimate X-23 book?

I spit on your feelings of imposter syndrome, mine are real

I also love oversharing but hate having overshared and both are so bad

And I also hate about myself that I am aware of my follower count on this app being 1998.

I have a store signing in an hour and I hate the idea of no one showing up, and I hate the idea of a lot of people showing up. I hate that I hate that. I hate that my day is going to depend on what others think of the work that I do and I hate that in the end, to the world, I am only my work.

I feel like I spend most of my art-consuming life chasing comic books that make me forget that I make comic books

When I hear talk of pie I am always disappointed when it turns out it’s about pizza

I think I like devs more than severance because it’s like a quadruple shot of espresso to severance’s venti caramel macchiato that also has four shots of espresso

There’s a movie called source code that was an amazing existentialist story that ends perfectly with a freeze frame that encapsulates the preciousness of the present, and then unfortunately keeps going for another ten minutes absolutely ruining it. imo severance season 3 will be like that

watched severance and my theory is there will never be a season 3 and there was never going to be and in my mind that’s perfect

Some gates should be kept

Once right
a music producer gave another producer
the rights to use his voice as featured on a track
As a sample on a new song
For free and uncredited
Without knowing how it would be used
It was him saying
right about now

The funk soul brother

Never provide free labor
On anything sold for profit

Posting my thoughts on the culture that created that AI Studio Ghibli filter would only add to that culture

We’re not in indiocracy
we’re in Brazil

what are we even doing

I mean come on that doesn’t even sound like a real person’s name

I’m watching severance for the first time now! It makes me wish I had someone to watch it with whom I could incessantly annoy by asking them plot questions while calling Adam Scott’s character Ben Wyatt

Watching severance for the first time while reminding myself that it’s perfectly okay that there are people who couldn’t get past the first episode of The Wire because they were annoyed by Dominic West’s Baltimore accent

Meanwhile comic artists are starting their fifty-seventh view of season 3 of the wire

Do you know what was a waste? Boom! shouldn’t have just marketed that Keanu Reeves writes comic books, but that Keanu Reeves READS comic books
