Insane 🤩

I haven't read this manga in AGES!

Loved the stage play too 🥰

Love this! They were so sweet and kind. Moment of a lifetime 😊

Hi everyone! New review is up, and I hope you enjoy Kamudo as much as I did 💜

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani will be the next mayor of New York City after running on a platform centered on making the city affordable for working people.

He did it!!! 🥳🥳🥳

Friends, Tuesday is Election Day in NYC, and it's time to VOTE FOR @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! Here's a thread of why I'm voting for him, along with photos I've taken over the past few months.

FIRST, the dude cares. He loves this city and he loves us. And care > punishment, baby.

Something else I did today 😊

Just finished moderating TeenLIVE! with Raymond Santana of the Exonerated Five and Illustrator Keith Henry Brown to promote their book, Pushing Hope: An Illustrated Memoir of Survival.

Please pick up the book when you get a chance. These guys are the best! 😎

Why should young people care about books bans?

That's a question we posed to some of the special guests at our "Who's Afraid of Fiction?" event, hosted by PEN America Young Patrons during #BannedBooksWeek.

I attended a rally for Zohran Mamdani, and the energy was insane!

Please God, may we have a positive outcome.

An icon

I already heard about the VIZ issue.

Dick move, VIZ. I really wanted the manga too, but don't disrespect your fans like that. Everything's toxic enough as it is.

And with that, NYCC is done, and I get to rest from conventions for at least eight months.

This was another great year spent with friends and colleagues and meeting industry pros. If I didn't see you, I'm so sorry.

Looking forward to next year. I'm not looking forward to laundry tomorrow.
