Can the New York Times explain why they kicked me off the bestseller list supposedly because Heavenly Tyrant is "published outside the United States" even though Iron Widow, from the same publisher, hit the same list 40+ times in 2021-2022 with no problems?

Is Superman Bleeding a Deconstruction of the Whole "Invulnerable Man of Steel" Mythos? | Black Girl Nerds Superman in the comics has not often shown fear, but he has experienced moments of doubt and apprehension when faced with truly formidable challenges

Superman in the comics has not often shown fear, but he has experienced moments of doubt and apprehension when faced with truly formidable challenges, showcasing a nuance to his character that is rarely explored in cinematic adaptations.

Oh that's great to hear!

Review: Netflix's ‘Squid Game’ Returns with a Bold and Bloody Season 2 | Black Girl Nerds 'Squid Game' Season 2 premieres December 26, 2024, on Netflix.

In its sophomore season, Squid Game continues to strike the right balance of humor and heartbreak, delivering emotionally rich backstories and relationships along with dark satire and ultraviolet action.

A woman with a mask and dressed up in a golden armour is standing in front of a yellow dragon. She has one arm raised while the other is obstructed by a golden thread.

A still from Squid Game season 2, actor Park Sunghoon is wearing a green jumpsuit and has long hair

Article from TheWrap : ‘Squid Game’ Creator Says It Was an Impossible Challenge to Find a Trans Actress to Cast in Season 2 Hwang Dong-hyuk tells TheWrap how the character played by Park Sung-hoon is a “person who got hurt a lot by social discrimination and prejudice”

Article from Yahoo! Entertainment: Squid Game's trans casting controversy is more complicated than people think Park Sung-hoon plays a former special forces soldier who joins the competition to fund her gender-affirming surgery.

We got more information regarding the casting choice of Park Sunghoon, a cis actor, to play Hyunju, a trans woman in SG season 2

CEOs get hunted for sport in this book

You've met the Iron Triangle. Now get ready for...THE TOXIC TRIANGLE

As terrible as the Iron Triangle is wholesome! The nightmare of Huaxia CEOs (if they don't kill each other first)!

This art by so萌小怪兽 is part of a set of overlays you can get to put into Iron Widow and Heavenly Tyrant ⬇️

The most important artistic advice I can impart on people is to stop saying self-depreciating things about your work when you show it to people. Break the habit, it’s not funny, it’s not cute, it’s impulsive self-harm we do to try to take away the power other people could have to bruise our egos.

LRT: "Ghibli vibes" always means "there's rolling hills and a little creature who squeaks" and never "the cruel machine of fascism poisons even our most beautiful dreams"

Festive advice from Brenda the Civil Disobedience Penguin:

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green is jumping into the air, agitated and prickly, screaming into the void. Green: If hope is not joy, then rage it shall be! I did not ask to be born, I will not ask for permission to live! I will cling to hope by rage alone, for the void below has killed before, and it can kill again! Blue appears on the scene, looking confused. He is sitting down, behind Green's back. It is unclear how long he has been sitting there listening. Green turns around to look over his shoulder to look at Blue as he talks. Blue: ...Can I ask what you are doing? Green: My daily affirmations.
