The challenge is to choose 20 books that greatly influenced you. One book per day for 20 days. No explanation, no reviews. Just covers. Day 10

Worth its weight in gold! The late Steve Dillion was one of my favourite artists and is easily (along with #gosekikojima) on the two greatest comic book storytellers who ever lived. This is a gold mine of education material.

normally I would viciously player hate on a remake of an all-time great movie, but this one is the ruler remaking one of his hits with a black main cast. John Woo found the blueprint. I'm gonna rewatch The Killer (1989) while I work today too www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNL5...

This summer I will be supporting the Mongolian Olympic team because this is their uniform and it is a thousand times better than anything Nike has ever made.

Preach!

gotta love how contemporary publishing is 30000000 beautiful, deeply felt, finely crafted books with 7.5 readers each whose authors are just barely making a living, and like 4 books that financially support the whole apparatus, each of which has comprehensively and unforgivably destroyed society

If you could point your friends, roommates, chums, associates, pals, colleagues, comrades, buddies, neighbours, etc. in our general direction that would be great. paddysbooks.bigcartel.com RTs, or whatever they’re called, much appreciated

I've been looking forward to this for ages! Well done mate. @tonyparkerart.bsky.social

Showing a pitch is incredibly rare, and never before the book comes out. Check out something that's unheard of. :)

Institutions work until they don’t. It’s banal but true. Courts as institutions worked when Trump tried to steal the election, but FedSoc has been chipping away at them for decades, and I think it is very rational to doubt they will work any more to restrain an executive.

WSJ this morning. lol at the last bit. "Leaders on both sides need to stop describing the stakes of the election in apocalyptic terms. Democracy won't end if one or the other candidate is elected. Fascism is not aborning if Mr. Trump wins, unless you have little faith in American institutions."

BLADE RUNNER Ridley Scott’s sci-di classic was released OTD 42 years ago (same day as Carpenter THE THING- what a grand weekend it was for sci-if and great movies in general ❤️)

ALIENS One of the rare cases where the sequel of a movie is as great as the first one, James Cameron's ALIENS (produced by @galeannehurd.bsky.social ) starring Sigourney Weaver, Michael Biehn, Lance Henriksen, Paul Reiser, & Bill Paxton was released OTD in 1986.

Currently rereading this masterpiece of a crime comic for research and inspiration for my most ambitious project yet.

Seriously this is the takeaway from every art critique of my 4 year degree. #art

It’s early, so here’s a trade secret: “Getting better” at art isn’t about not making mistakes, it’s about learning to incorporate them into your final art so they don't look like mistakes.

Getting increasingly pissed off by various politicians "distraught" today. This is America, where every day we wonder if this when someone we love gets mowed down by a shooter. Pretending to be shocked just shows you don't get it. Trump has a Secret Service detail to protect him. My kids don't.

Any decent human being in Donald Trump's position yesterday, after getting medically cleared, would've gone immediately to the family of the people killed at his rally. They would've visited with the person in critical condition. Trump flew to New Jersey.

I agree

Spent the evening watching Once Upon A Time in the West... a perfect example of a "long" movie that doesn't feel any longer than a 90 minute movie because it's so engaging. It really wants you to pay attention and think because it spells out so little.

This is but one reason to go watch Basic Instinct.

I just learned that Dorothy Malone—the bookstore owner in The Big Sleep, that Dorothy Malone—was in Basic Instinct. So now I have to go watch Basic Instinct.
