Stop LARPing the resistance. This is not your favorite D&D campaign. This is about appointments, about the Democratic party being run from the middle of the country and not the coasts, about calls to Senators and Congresspeople’s offices. It should be boring.

A reader sent this to me in response to this op-ed and I thought I’d put up the reply I sent him here since I’ve had this conversation with a few people: Dear Sam Thank you for writing your article about why US white evangelicals would vote for Donald Trump and the incredibly serious issues

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE Here’s an odd little rant: I’m a pretty severe Type 1 nerd. I don’t just collect comic books, I obsess about all kinds of weird stuff, from cartoons to detective movies to video games to toys. It’s a strange relationship with late capitalism, I’ll freely admit; I think normal people

Hey, I haven’t updated this in a while, largely because things haven’t changed much in my personal comics-buying habits, but I thought I’d just put up my pull list in case people are interested. I recommend all these. – Sex Criminals – Just broke down and started getting this as soon as it comes out.
