Rural noir Revival is heavy on drama and light on thorny questions Rural noir Revival is heavy on drama and light on thorny questions

I enjoyed it. This AV Club review nails my take too: www.avclub.com/revival-revi... It took me a while to 'catch' the show's tone (different from the comicbook), but once I did... looking forward future episodes πŸ‘

Jaron "Boots" Ennis Shows Just How Good Boxing Can Be | BoxingInsider.com Promotions By: Sean Crose I'm often asked why I prefer boxing to mixed martial arts. I always respond with the perhaps vague assertion that boxing is cleaner. And by

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.

I'm not saying we shouldn't worry about how China might be using TikTok to steal our data and manipulate us...

But why aren't we at least as worried about the U.S. billionaires who own the other apps stealing our data and trying to manipulate us?

I'm loving TRUE DETECTIVE: NIGHT COUNTRY, and if you are too, you might enjoy my Alaska-set police thriller, GLACIER CITY. It's about the lone cop in an isolated town.

You can read the first two chapters of this digital comic in a pay-what-you-want format at panelsyndicate.com.

Not currently. Service on hiatus the past few years; headpace & life issues. That said, due to recent career tumult (opportunity?) - I may have a 'pop up' event forthcoming. Will let you know if things fall into place : )

Title: The exceedingly tiny bookshop

It is no wider than its own narrow door but is easy to find as there is always a  queue of eager customers outside.

One at a time, they enter to find themselves uncomfortably close to the proprietor. His impeccable suggestions are mote than worth the indignity.

In the miniature stockroom a professional contortionist is employed to unpack deliveries and replenish the display.

The shelves can accommodate only eleven volumes, but each is chosen with such care that nobody leaves empty handed.

On Saturday mornings, a local author reads stories to as many small children as can be wedged into the shop.

Republicans are lying when they say slashing IRS funds will lower the deficit. For each extra $1 the IRS spends auditing rich tax cheats, it can collect $12. Defunding the IRS will INCREASE the deficit.Β 

They want to help their rich donors cheat, while the rest of us pay for it.

A couple are talking in a book-filled room. She has a speech bubble reading β€œI have an idea: let’s make a pact that neither of us will buy another book until we’ve read a few more of the ones that we already own. The books are taking over!”. 
He replies β€œI hear what you’re saying.” But we can see his thought bubble which overlaps her speech bubble in such a way that it highlights the words β€œLet’s buy more books”.

Sad News. Gerry Shamray passed away yesterday.

Comics fans know him best for his photo-realist stories for Harvey Pekar during the legendary self-published era of American Splendor from 1976 to 1990. Good guy. I haven't seen him in awhile.

Safe travels, Gerry.
