We don't have to have a long memory to recall a certain television personality smearing President Obama with much more heinous claims than anything this dipshit is facing. But Obama never sicced the FCC on that guy's show because he had the strength of character to care about more important shit.

No political grievance can be taken seriously if "hurting the dear leader's precious feelings" sits equally among them. This isn't a righteous movement, it's a political vanity project. Weak. Ass. Shit.

Surely everyone recognizes that threatening to cancel entire networks for hurting his feelings is weak-ass shit. But the whole premise of his political movement is that he is always right, so we end up with an entire party too weak to call out weakness. Sycophancy as a political identity.

National Treasure except instead of the Declaration of Independence it's the Bill of Rights and instead of stealing it they're setting it on fire.

Hadn't seen how tariffs were impacting clothes prices until last night. If I save up, I might be able to afford a barrel with suspenders.

There's no explaining away Trump having posted a video featuring AI version of himself. Did he forget that he hadn't said that stuff? Did he know that he didn't say that stuff, but didn't see that known fraud as disqualifying the other assertions in the video? What's the best-case scenario here?

Literally threatening the country with a good time. Supporting trans rights and shutting down his regime seems like an easy win. (So of course the Democrats will screw it up...)

He can’t make groceries cheaper, but he can cancel a late night talk show. And another. And rename the Gulf of Mexico. You know: priorities.

That “First they came” poem made me think it would take longer for them to start coming for middle-aged white dudes…

Our president is so vain he probably thinks that song is about him.

Same! This was the dream team for this project, and I think the results speak for themselves. Excited to have it out in the world!

My favorite moment has got to be this one, but I'm a sucker for panels that distill the major themes of a story into a single panel. There was a bit of back and forth on the layout for this panel, but we all knew Javi had landed on something special when he handed this one in.

In stores today: BRING ON THE BAD GUYS: DORMAMMU #1. So excited for folks to read this one. @alexpaknadel.bsky.social found such a cool angle for examining the titular bad guy, and Javier Pina and Erick Arciniega dial in the mood perfectly. The result is a remarkably singular tone. Love this issue!

Went to my first Brookly Cyclones game last night, though one of the friends that I went with was under the impression that I was a big fan, in case anyone was wondering what kind of energy I'm giving off these days.

Two weeks until this fire drops. Can't wait for everyone to read it.

Imagine losing the Epstein files so badly you need to call in the National Guard to help you look for them.

I think I've seen the "we caught him in a lie -- there's no denying it this time!" thing fail enough with this guy that it's starting to feel like the definition of insanity. Cons simply do not care about his lies, hypocrisy, or evidence contrary to their beliefs, and I don't think they ever will.

I think there's a world where they're TRYING to get us to make the case that these files are a big deal. But in either case, they're definitely dishonest enough to throw together a list of their enemies and call it his client list. So I'm not sure there's a win to be had here.

Does anyone trust the administration not to just make up whatever and release it as "the Epstein files," though? This is just a big hurricane map and they're holding the sharpie.

How else are companies supposed to communicate how cheap and tasteless they are?

Good news! “Being a depressed brainwashed cult member” is largely how I’d describe the college experience! (only half kidding)

Oh shit. Have I turned into the kind of middle aged white dude who listens to Kind of Blue in his living room on a Friday night?

I honestly can't imagine ever being offended by an insult as softball as "world-class hater," but I will not accept that anyone finds it MORE offensive than "shithole countries" or "grab 'em by the pussy." Why would only one of those be disqualifying?
