- When the tech bro feudalist fever dream of AI ushering in an era where all personal ownership is subsumed by digital subscription models for all media and services, inevitably crashes and burns 95% of all money on earth I’m gonna be sitting pretty with my five physical copies of Tenchu 3 on PS2.
- Society would be infinitely improved if we gave adults the same freedom as children to randomly arrive at work, school, and social functions dressed in a full on Halloween costume a few times a month and no one bats an eye.
- Running out the clock on 2025 with Children of Men.

- Spending most of my daily allotment of “communicates with tempered rage” points on not filling my Senate Rep’s voicemail with expletives so just heads up anyone who has a work call with me today.
- I have lost the key to cabinet I keep my Steamdeck in so I am 3 days into extreme Silksong withdrawal, meaning I’m much chiller, thumbs aren’t cramping in agony, and I’m using on average 85% less profanity.
- Put a gun to my head and I couldn’t give you a compelling Batman pitch I’d want to write BUT can I interest you in a miniseries about one of his lesser-known villain’s called “Bookworm” whose superpower is he’s a nerd, who finds the Necronomicon in a vault beneath Gotham City?
- My kid demanded a “Spooky Puppet Show” for bedtime so I’m sending Grover and Elmo into the House of Leaves. Your wish is my command, little man!
- Read the original pitch of this project a ways back and every single page made say “woah” out loud. Absolute banger.
- *moments after you’ve ask the hypnotist to help you stop thinking about making comics ever second of every day.
- Evening stroll in the park. Guy on an electric unicycle and a helmet done up in Christmas lights zooms past a group of people huddled around a digital campfire. Someone turned the William Gibson Dial up to 11 I see.
- My serious pitch for a big budget Warhammer 40K movie isn’t to try and do it “in universe” but as a high stakes political thriller set it in a near-future where ALL global conflict is resolved by nations fielding 20,000 point miniature armies and having it out.
- Apply for a chance to hear me go on and on about BERSERK (and also make comics with us and stuff!)
- Gonna pitch a Silksong licensed comics where you start reading and it’s great and then slowly the pages get progressively harder and harder to turn and you’re struggling and then a guy in a paper mache big costume just shows up and tries to keep you from reading it.
- I’ve already beaten all the Silksong bosses that are getting nerfed via patch. I’ll continue to sit at the big boy table at the Real Gamers Bar.
- Heading to the airport to fly to a comic con and I’m very excited for 10 uninterrupted hours in the sky to get some work done. 👌
- *watching Alien Earth, Xenomorph plunges second mouth into a dude’s head sending gore and brains splattering all over, screams, cacophony Me: “Man, I haven’t seen Ice Age in like 20 years…”
- Taking a personal day to spend with my kid. 10 min chatting with other dads on this playground and I’ve got one reconsidering Predator 2 and saying he’ll watch it tonight. Still got it!
- After 30 plus years of typing on a computer daily I only just noticed which fingers I use on a keyboard: Left hand: index, middle, ring Right hand: index, pinky This is liable to drive me insane…

- Heading to the beach to pull a reverse Charles Atlas ad & kick sand at buffed-out beach bros to embarrass them in front of their dates.
- I haven’t read any Marvel Aliens stuff but are they doing the Aliens 3 thing where a Xenomorph inherits certain genetic traits from the organism it chest burst from? Wolverine’s healing factor alone means he could survive multiple birthing cycles. Healing factor aliens? Game over man.
- Reposted by Sebastian GirnerSo, I was laid off by my job this week after 13 years. Not only that, but it happened as bills from my recent heart attack-related medical visits come due. Because of that, I'm doing a big sale for SKTCHD/Off Panel related things, so now's a good time to subscribe if you can...because I need it!
- I love extreme metal bands because it’s always darkest, saddest, grimmest, most beyond-all-light funeral apocalypse gloom audio assault on all of God’s creation but also “hey, our band logo is a little Christmas tree!”

- Imagine living so charmed a life that all it took to “ruin your childhood” was a movie about a man in red underpants flying around a green screen.
- Not gonna get anyone’s hopes up but I just had a creative call the end result of which has the potential to save comics, democracy, AND America. Will keep you posted ✌️
- No escape from the crushing finality of capitalism. Not even in the frozen food aisle...
- Replaying the Witcher 3 and a game like this set during the 30 Years War period where you’re a beleaguered monster hunter just trying to root out vampires and werewolves between the front lines of papists and reformists would be tops.
- Setting the radio to play at half speed tomorrow so the July 4th programming convey the appropriate downtempo horror movie trailer vibes for the occasion.

- The phrase “Chillin’ like a villain.” is massively misleading. Villains constantly scheme and plot and have to run budgets and a schedules for their master plan, hire and onboard henchmen, train them, make sure everyone’s wearing the brand. It’s exhausting. LITERALLY the opposite of “chillin’.”
- Every day DC Comics does not announce a comic called ‘Superman Smashes the Supreme Court’ they are leaving millions on the table.
- I’m sure my family won’t mind if I pre-spend some of my paycheck on the Steam Summer Sale…

- *Me on my deathbed with a smile on my face imagining people spending a sunny weekend day pondering what compelled me to have six copies of Tenchu 3: Wrath of Heaven on PS2 in five languages.
