Thank you Peter Thiel! You tagged team with #HulkHogan and bankrupted Gawker, a notable pop culture contribution. Buzzfeed, Gawker etc. these sites are trash with wet garbage "writing." I'm so thankful to both for your service. Hogan's Rocky III cameo remains a delight. #RIP

Yes! I agree with @OKComics: pick up #JeffLemire's memoir 10,000 Ink Stains. Towards the end of the book there's an inspiring PSA for the kids: pick up your pencils and make comics. I hope that message sparks so much creativity. cc: @DarkHorseComics #SDCC2025

A #PantsWorthy #SDCC2025 Recommendation: The Special Guests list is impressive: Chip Kidd to Jim Lee! Recently we lost Jim Shooter & Peter David. This ain't guilt. I's a recognition you have a window of time to truly communicate to these creators you value their dynamic work.

Last year #JamesGunn rightly promised the #DCU will not focus on the origin stories: “I’m not telling Batman and Superman’s origin stories again because everyone knows them.” Gunn is right. So applying that logic what does Guillermo del Toro's #Frankenstein offer at #TIFF50?!

More #TIFF50 CanCon: #Degrassi: Whatever It Takes joins the John Candy doc. The #Degrassi doc is directed by #LisaRideout, who killed it with her @sexwithsuefilm. (She's 1 more doc away from a Canadian trilogy.) So? How much Drake and how Kevin Smith should viewers expect??
