That ominous feeling when you press play on the video, and rather than the usual long leggings and top, the yoga instructor is wearing a vest and shorts, with the hair tied in a short bun.

I didn’t, good pedigree!

When hyping stuff, I've got a broad rule in that when someone complains about your amount of posts, you've probably started to do the right amount. Exposure is a bell curve. If someone is annoyed, folks on the other end may just be seeing it once.

You guys, one time I went from being a big-time head of surgery in London to the sole general practitioner in the small coastal town of Port Wenn and boy was I crabby.

I'm chewing over the irony that as I only really want to run low prep ttrpgs, I'm writing a low-prep ttrpg that is currently over 40k words long. That's some A Man Would Rather Write A 40k+ word TTRPG than Go To Prep energy.

I want to play these games I got sent today but everyone is asleep but me.

Who is your favorite Kamen Rider?

I only found out what that is today.

Tom Cruise is a teeny

Right. You’re on breath mints.

CAN you, you mean MUST you?

I wrote a ton of the dialogue and some story elements. It was fun!

Can you make sandwiches? Reacher loves a sandwich.

I can tell you’re lying.

Typically, Reacher doesn’t fight much, I think we’ll be okay. I can make Mad-style snappy comebacks!

You had me at “amazing hair.”

She is in other hands! Very capable ones!

You guys, I’ve decided to travel around the country as a mystery-solving brute like Jack Reacher. I’ll need some of you to do the fighting and intimidating and investigating and wearing old dirty clothes. I will handle the reading comics and drinking tea portion of our missions, Reacher-style.

Writing captions for a book and I am so good at identifying ILMers from the backs of their heads.

Oh I gotta track down this thing IMMEDIATELY

I like that SQUIRM is just a Tennessee Williams play with monster worms.

Where does Coily fit into God's plan for us?

Without a doubt, Speed.

God, Slaanesh would CLEAN UP recruitment with new age self-care speak huh

there's a Cathy Brennan joke to be made here but I can't quite pin it down

Pike's love of his sick new chair is the most relatable a Starfleet captain has been since Janeway was chugging black coffee.

Apparently a bunch of Hyun Sook's friends thought she was standing over a bunch of dead kangaroos in this picture? Bro, they just chill AF. Doin' big yawns and stretches. Bein' cozy and enjoying some skritches.

"Maybe you can use AI to help lessen your workload" NAH THOSE ARE THE DEVIL'S WORDS BRO

All I want to know is, if the University of Nottingham has a vending machine that dispenses fresh, hot chapatis, who do I need to bribe in Nottingham to get one of those machines over here?

I am a various creator!

"Why does he write so much Spider-Man?" Because I love Spidey. It's that simple. He's my favorite character in all of fiction. (Suck it, Hamlet.) If YOU could make a living writing your favorite character, why WOULDN'T you? My 1st time writing Spidey. New Warriors Annual #1, 1991. 35 years ago.

oh trad pub, never change -- even as the right attacks the freedom to read and goes all in on book banning, there's still a shitty dagger NYT bestseller buck to make

If you long for a story about a youth (10 to 13 year old) in a school setting that includes magic and sorcery, but don't want to support someone using their vast wealth to try and eradicate trans people, this (and the source novels) could be for you! Bonus sword fighting!

If Spencer is putting out a book, it should be on your list to check out 👀👀👀

I find mould line scraping on miniatures very boring but I've discovered it's actually a good way to wind down at the end of the day for that exact reason.

There's a billboard outside my day job, possibly for an airline, that says "STILL TOO HOT? VISIT SAN FRANCISCO." and they make a salient point.

I do think believing that using AI to pull together research for you for the purposes of writing fundamentally misunderstands why doing your own research is an important part of the writing process.

it's cool that i finally decided to get my shit together and eat more vegetables just in time for rfk jr to come in and be like

Greatest writing advice ever is in Hemingway's A Moveable Feast -- abt never leaving your writing at "a good stopping place." Always leave it in a terrible stopping place - mid-sentence even. Makes it way easier to start again. But why do I always forget this advice when I'm struggling? Sigh.

literally the only time i've ever wanted one of those foldy phones -- if they ever made an e-ink version of this, i would be gone, give me an e-ink version that i can hold like an open book! i don't even need the page flipping animation! (via: www.instagram.com/reel/DcQOzU-...)

You better believe I'm going to be getting the JUNK PUNCH TPB. It's Paul Tobin, it's got terrific-looking art and what a bizarre concept. It seems like chaos, but, y'know, in a fun way.

ICYMI this morning, this will be a must-read comic in November.

GET FOUR DOGS AND LIVE FOREVER

a few posts got some juice recently and the follows are coming in so just fyi this is what you are in for

I think adding Miracleman to the Marvel Universe could easily go very wrong, but could be interesting, and I'd only really have two thoughts, one obvious, the other...I dunno. First, if they're bringing him into the Marvel Universe, call him Marvelman. Second, if you're doing that...

These Bronze Age panels may not measure up to the craftsmanship of 21st-century comic art, but there's an ineffable something to them that I think has been lost over time.

CREATCH

now with spear! [napoleon costume unrelated]

Have you heard of this herd?

Me cradling my comic pitches.

They'll take Australopithecus and Paranthropus away from me when they pry them from my cold dead fleshless surprisingly brittle phalanges.

Just out of a beginning-of-the-school-year get-to-know-your-coworkers meeting, and I'm beginning to get a bad feeling about how meeting the administration's Key Performance Indicators is going to translate to the day-to-day reality of the job.

Oh @gwillow.me I am so mad no one went "oh lets team up Felicia with the LIVING DIAMOND WOMAN" till now and that I didn't think of it first Can't wait

I wouldn't tell them who was 'IN CHARGE OF THE CANON,' a role that doesn't exist.

'cause i'm leaving in the morning and i must see you again we'll have one more night together 'til the morning brings my train and i must go oh, no no no oh, no no no and i don't know if i'm ever coming home

Rare photo of the great space throw pillow.

Taking a minute to appreciate how much atmosphere Bernard Krigstein could create with bold, unlikely shapes.

There was an error in my post about James Bond earlier this week, spotted by Inner Hive member Michael Fallon. The 1958 comic strip WASN'T the first non-literary visual depiction of Bond. The first was in a 1954 CBS teleplay in which James Bond was AMERICAN. boingboing.net/2026/08/20/j...

I don’t hate Billy Joel! Just his SONGS and his PERSONALITY and FACE!

The first four minutes of The Last Fifteen Minutes, a marionette musical short film by @shing.bsky.social and @jayackley.bsky.social.

idk man i just don't think the question is "is ai (claude, chatgpt, etc) useful?" more than it's "can we use ai ethically / safely" and the answer to the latter is no
