I can’t stop thinking about him.

Credit for Spider-Man goes to Stan Lee and Steve Ditko—respectively, the child and grandchild of immigrants.

Community support recommendation from a local friend: check standwithminnesota.com for good places to donate.

*I included Kirby (child of immigrants) because I’m quoting AF15.

If you’re voting today, thank you!
Hate is on the ballot, from the top to the props, & if you vote, you get to officially, measurably, indelibly tell it what you think of it. (Like officially rebuking CA’s hateful 2008 Prop 8!)
If you can, I hope you will.

Qs? A’s!⬇️

The LAist guide to LA and OC's many voting guides

As the Nov. 5 election draws closer, many of us have yet to vote. Why? Cause the ballot is long! Voting guides can help. LAist has one. We also put together a guide to some of the other popular voting guides rocketing around L.A. this weekend.

LAist
Let’s go.
1. The feeling
2 & 3: the reasons. Thank you to the Enthusiarmy, who tuned in and wrote with me on our Twitch Anniversary/Letters to Voters stream this week! [… -IG for more] https://www.instagram.com/p/DB1vgX6Sv-4/?igsh=MWQ1ZGUxMzBkMA==
Amy Dallen on Instagram: "Let’s go. 1. The feeling 2 & 3: the reasons. Thank you to the Enthusiarmy, who tuned in and wrote with me on our Twitch Anniversary/Letters to Voters stream this week! The Big Send was Tuesday, and I am so impressed by how easy, fun and smooth Vote Forward makes it to contribute your time and love to the larger world by sending handwritten letters to potential voters encouraging them to participate in our process if they can. They tell you to focus your statement on WHY you vote, and that got me really thinking. It got me thinking about the people I love (like the ones in this post), thinking about what’s at stake, and thinking about how much I treasure the chances I get to do my piece of our collective work: shaping the world we want to see. If you can vote—I hope you will. If you’re potentially voting for the first time: wonderful! There will never be a better time to start! If this already was your first time: welcome! Thank you! See you again next time! Hat tip to @josephscrimshaw for putting the org on my radar (vote fwd dot org to sign up for future cycles!). And unending thanks and affection to the folks who celebrated, chipped in, ate pizza and wrote with me Sunday, esp. @rbudd913 for music, @pocketgina for ART, & @jaydallen for… somehow winning at Hamlet? There are a lot of emotions in me fighting for the top spot right now. Fear is in there; anger, sorrow, hope. But for this post, I’m choosing joy and love. They’re here, too. My essential voting resource this year was the @laistofficial’s incredibly helpful “LA guide to LA guides.” https://laist.com/news/politics/2024-election-california-general-los-angeles-laist-guide-to-la-voting-guides Tons more helpful links in there, as well! Love and joy, A no-longer-eligible-but-still-honorary Single Cat Lady"

PARTY TIME! This Sunday, write letters to voters with me & celebrate 7 years on twitch with the inimitable Enthusiarmy! https://www.instagram.com/p/DBhhJC1SYP_
Amy Dallen on Instagram: "This Sunday! Write letters, inspire voters, and PARTY! Celebrate 7 years on twitch with the Enthusiarmy (AND our love of a classic comic book letters page) by hanging out for a letter-writing party on Twitch! Sign up NOW through votefwd dot org to participate (see pinned comment, non-US folks!) because it takes some time to be approved! Or just spread the word, come hang out with some SPECIAL GUESTS and ring in another year of joy, silliness, and, er... occasionally fending off the darkness with the power of collective action for good. It's Party Time! [Note: as you might guess, I will not be at BigBagCon this fall; had hoped to make it my first BBC but had to change plans. Enjoy the show, all who are going! Not going? Write letters with me!] Note: all letters must be sent by TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29th! And a big old hat tip to the great @josephscrimshaw, whose Vote Forward posts inspired me this season."

Listen. Sometimes your pals at Good Time Society call and just *insist* that you have The Most Fun A Human Being Can Have. This is one of those times:

Every San Diego is a love story. It’s SDCC time! Keeping a light schedule this year but will have a chance to say hello—check ig for more!

I’m visiting pals at Good Time Society and they let me pick a game, so…

Guess who’s finally going to play her first Wingspan?

Starting in just a few minutes on GTS’ twitch!

Hey there’s a Humble Bundle going on for Discworld books! You should get that!
It’s up for two more weeks and it’s for dozens of ebooks on kobo and it benefits a reading charity!

Q&A:
Do I have anything to do with the bundle?
-no, I just need you to know about it

(added more silliness on ig: https://www.instagram.com/p/C2OZC68rI5z/?igsh=NzBmMjdhZWRiYQ== )

Not sure if it’s the old detective shows, my first Jeeves & Wooster deep dive or mere puzzle-game overload, but I just solved a tricky bit and then physically said “Oho!” out loud in satisfaction—so one or more of those is clearly out of control.
