ha! thanks! "@MellonCatis: @IvanBrandon Your mentioning of bunnies the other day inspired this sketch of you: http://t.co/2te1qR2" #
not sure how south dakota defines felony, but looks like house bill 1171 could make it legal to kill abortion DRs there http://t.co/7ewHHxn #
happy birthday @CBCebulski . you may be 40 but in my heart you will always be 38ish. #
wow i'm between a rock & a hard place. i don't at all agree w/ @BarbieHead but on the other hand, that means i have to agree w/ @mckelvie #
guys trying to hit on girls in photo comments on facebook: you may think you're being smooth but i promise you're embarrassing yourself. #
"@neiltyson: IBM's "Watson" wipes the floor w/Jeopardy's best-ever human contestant Only Art remains safe from this overlord's dominance." #
if anyone wants to understand how WATSON works, nova did a really great piece on it last week. incredible tech. http://t.co/rgWEdXy #
surprised after all these years rich johnston would think a cover drawn 4 months in advance could somehow be swiped from an ad in the book. #
in the world of publishers trashtalking other publishers apparently it doesn't matter if you burn your own people. #
"@BRIANMBENDIS: my youngest went to bed clutching the wedding photo of @ivanbrandon i kid you not." #

i don't dislike you. i'm just not that interested in talking to you or spending any kind of time around you. #
go follow @chrisstaros, publisher of top shelf, easily 1 of the best houses in comics #
i propose a rebranding from "colorist" to "COLORIZER". which sounds like a way more futuristic job you might have in the world of lazer tag. #
this is pretty genius. http://t.co/GC0PR0C via @mattsloan: #
holy shit: "Michel Gondry Meets His Quirky Sensibility Match In Philip K. Dick http://t.co/UzlsoU0" via @BRIANMBENDIS #
UBIK. not some crazy short story… UBIK, the ultimate PKD book. or… fiction book. if like me you don't 100% count VALIS as fiction. #
i have randomly stumbled upon the art of zac gorman and it is pretty neat http://t.co/EeFq8WU #
in other news chicago code is still not very good. i'll give it 1 more shot. #
i'm not 100% sure but i think bobby flay is battling with one of my favorite cuban restaurants, LA ISLA in hoboken. #

my nephew's name is dax. ignoring any star trek mentions, have decided he's an homage to the greatest war movie ever made, paths of glory. #
RIP: san francisco's comic relief. long live… secret upcoming store http://t.co/DbetlMV #
i can't tell if the sunset limited is the first mccarthy work i dislike or if tommy lee jones' adaptation is just terrible. #
horrific. lara logan sexually assaulted and beaten by a crowd in egypt. http://t.co/bBsWPNf #
in better news: you can stop protesting the san diego hyatt: the owner sold it. #

i feel lucky that i missed all of the grammys except the awesome part where arcade fire won album of the year and played the show off. #
also i am pretty sure they weren't supposed to play that last song, which makes me love them all the more. #
RT @kanyewest: #Arcade fire!!!!!!!!!! There is hope!!! I feel like we all won when something like this happens! FUCKING AWESOME! #
ladies and gentlemen of the internet i present to you @themikenorton 's @battlepug http://t.co/OW16CuZ #
"NYT discovers Brooklyn (http://t.co/5QLSZLO) and with it, duck meatloaf at Buttermilk Channel (http://t.co/K4sHpav)" -@TastingTableNYC #
valentine's seems to inspire a more than usual amount of grandstanding: "i don't need a holiday to tell me to bla bla bla". #
i am not a math expert but if fox's audience is more than double the combined audience of cnn and msnbc… how is it "the liberal media"? #
my favorite part of the new assassin's creed game's multiplayer is @benfritz's quiet anger. verbal equivalent of a controlled detonation. #
all of my writing obsessions come from music. #
chicago code theme song is even worse than the one from the shield. #

red panda bears are like real life pom poko. #
…and i have a new nephew. very strange to've held a baby in your own arms and that baby is now an adult with its own baby. #old #mysister #
is terror the food network's desired reaction to the cruise with anne burrell? #
returning to the characters DC first hired me to work on. before you guess: for reasons unrelated to me, those issues were never published. #

hey @comicsalliance + @andykhouri: your lead story's video w/ @mrdonaldglover does not work. #pleasefixit #ihaveprocrastinationtodo #
i think that is the first time i've gone to @comicsalliance w/out clicking someone's link to it. it is well designed, sadly rare in comics. #
thing i have to do way too often: explain to new artists why their editors only bother to respond to a small fraction of their emails. #
.@jeffparker mostly, at least, at letting them know it's not personal & they haven't done anything to offend the editor. #
hey,@DavidHasselhoff has anyone asked to have their picture taken with you lately? i would like to know at least 4 times. #
there is a tiny hole in my schedule all of a sudden. what will i fill it with? #
i can take about 4 seconds of GLEE before wanting to kill myself and everyone i know. #
