Either SWAMP THING by Alan Moore or IKON by Graham Masterton.

RFK Jr. doesn’t like that a study of every child born in Denmark from 1997-2018 showed no link between aluminum in vaccines and 50 adverse health outcomes. This study included more than a million kids.

RFK Jr. wants the study retracted.

The journal, which is a very prestigious one, refused.

Congratulations! 🎉

Under Threat from State, Florida Public Schools Are Banning These 55+ Books Without Review Florida doesn't maintain a state-sanctioned list of banned books, but the state is pressuring schools to remove these 55 books without review.

Here are the 55+ books that Florida school districts are removing from shelves without review, thanks to threats from the state.

This is a flagrant violation of their own state statutes, and what we know only represents districts *saying* they're doing this.

I am ENORMOUSLY jealous of those who got to participate -- I've had a Stand fanfic in my head since I was about thirteen.

(But yes, of course I'm excited and I will read the ever-loving hell out of it!)

Choo-choo'd, perhaps! 🚂

Introducing...SPACE TRAIN! As I post this, it's mid-August and I am very much ready for my lovely children to return to school. Don't get me wrong -- I love my kids, but it's hard to get

Hey, I've just sold my first #chapterbooks! Prepare yourself (and your kids) for the glory that is... #spacetrain!

I think he genuinely believes that his "Thank you for your attention in this matter" postscripts make him sound regal and presidential.

I don't know whether this is hilarious or lamentable.

If you see this, post a bad woman you love

But these days it feels like they won the peace, honestly.

Pads, too.

Out of the package, so they stick. It's like dude-bro napalm.

Oh, I know. I was being sarcastic AF.

Former Superman Dean Cain Says He’s Joining ICE ‘ASAP’: America Was ‘Built on Patriots Stepping Up’ Fomer 'Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman' Dean Cain says he's joining the ranks of ICE 'ASAP.'

DEI Superman signs up for ICE. Weird.

...one not typically made by most heroes. But it works because she’s young and exhausted and still growing and learning. Nicely done, and I look forward to a new season! 2/2

I binged all six episodes of #Ironheart on a lazy Saturday when I had the house to myself. It was uneven at first and had a few hiccups that annoyed me, but by the end, I was all-in. A pretty gutsy, but totally relatable conclusion, as RiRi makes a decision that you or I would probably make... 1/2

Enshittification is real and, like entropy, comes for all things.

But it was just the best, most delicious sort of coincidence! And a lot of fun! 5/5

So when Thanos chides Thor, “You should have gone for the head…” I was ecstatic. I had nailed him, right down to mimicking an element of his personality that I couldn’t have possibly known about. If you’ve read the book and seen the movie, for all you knew, this was carefully coordinated. 4/

A screenshot from the novel THANOS: TITAN CONSUMED. It reads: His brainwashing, it seemed, was complete. Nebula jumped in, sneering. "You always said that if we were concerned or worried, there's probably a reason. So..." "Yes. I also taught you always to aim for the head. When we get back to Sanctuary, you'll be on restricted rations for a week, Nebula."

...what little information I’d been given and then filling in the rest with my own imagination.

And this is a bit I wrote towards the end of the book (spoilers!): 3/

...(Thanos’s motivation, for example, as well as the location of the Soul Stone), but not everything.

I was writing the book without knowing all that much about the movie. Contrary to some speculation I’ve seen online, I never saw a script or spoke with the screenwriters. So I was using.... 2/

Remember this moment in #InfinityWar? I gotta tell you: I almost jumped out of seat and screamed with delight in theater when it happened. Let me explain...

When I wrote #Thanos: Titan Consumed, Infinity War was still several months in the future. I knew some things about the movie... 1/

Two comic book panels, both in close-up. In the first, a stern Batman says, "But if you EVER do this to my city again...then I'll kill you." And Swamp Thing, trying not to betray his amusement, replied, "Yes... Yes I do believe...that you MIGHT."

What I love most about this is the little indulgent, self-confident smile on Swampy’s mossy kisser.

Sure you will, little human, he’s thinking. Sure you will.

I will be including it in my official author bio from now on.

The headline on the radio news this morning was: "Well known actor joins ICE!"

My first thought was, "Did someone else besides Dean Cain sign up?"

Nice customer support lady just told me, "Barry, you are too cool dot com!" and I think I've peaked.

Holy shit -- the curse of Superman is real after all...!
