Not too bad. Had to break off to do a CNN panel, finishing an unrelated story. If you're a well-adjusted adult, online discourse can be annoying but you don't build your life around it.

hey man are you having a good time, is this fun for you

Watching A Few Good Men for the first time. The cinematography is gorgeous as hell. Most striking lighting I’ve seen since in recent memory. (And this cast! Good gosh…)

If you're at Comic Con San Diego, stop by!

Kingdom Come was such a groundbreaking piece of comic art and little else in comics has matched the way this work can capture the imagination. I'll be talking w/ Alex Ross, Mark Waid & others about a new documentary as I moderate a panel about it at Comic-Con in a few weeks — more in my exclusive:

DC Comics' 'Kingdom Come' Sets Fall Documentary Release and Crowdfunding Campaign | Exclusivewww.thewrap.com DC Comics' "Kingdom Come" sets a fall premiere for its Alex Ross documentary, along with a trailer and Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign.

Saw this pop up in my FB memories, and, still true: Loving Superman is probably what taught me to love God.

Jon Stewart saying Biden has “resting 25th Amendment face” has to be one of the toughest hits I’ve ever heard 😬 🤦🏻‍♂️

Don’t worry. I’m already dead inside.

Biden showed his age while Trump won with energy and lies: Here’s 5 things to know about last night’s debate.

Never thought I’d miss the Commission on Presidential Debates running debates so much

Did not have "Trump tries to reclaim January 6th" on my debate bingo card

Curious about Dexter: Original Sin. Wish they'd called it Young Dexter and had Dexter played by Iain Armitage. It would be the perfect next role w/ Young Sheldon wrapping up! Look at this kid. He already knows how to play neurodiverse. *chef's kiss* 🤌🏽

Any good journalism Discords I should check out? Or, just other Discords you want to recommend to me/that you think would fit me (but I am already in too many)!

Trying to get into Discord, but my social media-broken brain doesn't know what to do without a like/repost-style reward system

There are two kinds of people in the world: the people who think a mask ban at protests will only be used against people at a protest, and the people who know the LAPD will suddenly start calling two Black people hanging out outside “a protest.”

Alert could have just stopped there, at any point in the last many many many years

Incredible paragraph. Every hate-read profile of an obnoxious New York person should aspire to it.

A shoutout in strange times to the enduring prescience of Dusty Rhodes & the Hard Times promo — one to think on as companies go 😍 for AI. "They give him a watch, kick him in the butt & say 'Hey, a computer took your place, daddy.' THAT'S hard times." www.youtube.com/watch?v=9py4...

Dusty Rhodes talks about "hard times": Mid-Atlantic Wrestling, Oct. 29, 1985www.youtube.com Dusty Rhodes has a message for Ric Flair about "hard times."

I’ve still got a deeply soft spot for REM’s Nightswimming. This is probably because it was the rare slow song played at summer camp dances, when I could ask girls I liked to dance and get told NO NEVER. 😬

I'm switching podcast apps! please pray for me

Should’ve known Hank Pym would be problematic with this attitude
