The cover to Barb's comic GUN STREET GIRL, featuring (left to right) Liz's girlfriend Prana, Liz herself, and Liz's partner in looking for trouble, Eddie Caution. It's just here to try to get your attention. Please, please, give me attention!

I own these wrenches: GEARDRIVE Mini Combination Wrench Set, Midget Wrench Set, Metric & SAE, 20-Piece, 4-11mm & 5/32'' to 7/16''
But now I need something JUST A LITTLE BIGGER than the biggest of these because pliers are NOT doing it for me. Anyone got a new wrench-set recommendation? #wrenches

You mean, a two-way street? You bet.

Unless you ARE my pen-pal's ex-boyfriend in which case that's my Vertigo tarot please send it to me
So I never got it. So dang, I am jelly as the youth used to say before they grew up
I paid my money for that back in the day to a friend (well specifically a pen-pal whom I met because of a certain Vertigo comic letter column (which is also how I met my future wife)) whose comic shop ordered it for me and she got it and then I think she broke up with her boyfriend and he stole it?
oh DUDE the Vertigo Tarot
Just kind of wiped out today. Maybe it's the cloudy-but-didn't-want-to-rain weather? Been watching Cheers reruns with Barb lately. It really was a well-written show, the first few seasons... and can still make one laugh sometimes, even after Rebecca arrives.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
itβs come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so Iβm posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Misread: RED INTERNS. About interns who are powered by their rage. Would read. Hell, would write, if allowed
I had never read either before, my girlfriend (now wife) mailed them to me in the postal mail (we started off as a long-distance relationship)
One time when I was sick with a fever I binge-read all of Grant Morrison's run on Doom Patrol (and Animal Man) and it nearly melted my brain
