@GailSimone To Cyclops, it's just Clifford the big dog.

@GailSimone Hi Gail. Yours is 1 of 3 accounts I've stayed on X for, but after those disgusting posts from Grok, I'm finally deleting my account. I follow you on Bluesky, and for any of your followers not there yet, reminder that you no longer need an invite. It's lovely there!

@Ryan_Daigler This is 1 of 3 accounts I've stayed on X for, but after the disgusting antisemitic posts from Grok yesterday I'm finally deleting my account. Any chance you will be posting more on Bluesky? I follow you there.

[Dave @dkane204]

@Ryan_Daigler Just wanted to thank you for this account. It's helped me greatly as I've recently found the courage to go no contact with my family.

[Prison Policy Initiative @PrisonPolicy]

A grim reminder this 4th of July: The US has the highest incarceration rate of any independent democracy on Earth, making it a leader in mass incarceration.

Far too many people are locked up in the “land of the free.”

@Racetrack1982 @GailSimone Good literature is always up for interpretation of the reader, often finding personal meaning and themes never explicitly intended by the author. If someone can read a comic book and feel a tiny bit better about current affairs, isn't that a beautiful thing?

[Dave @dkane204]

@GailSimone X-MEN at its core has always been about the struggle and oppression of marginalized groups. The fact people can make real world connections to your fictional stories means you have absolutely nailed the writing on this book. UNCANNY is so much MORE than just superhero stories.

@FirstTake @Keefmorris It's remarkable how consistently wrong @Keefmorris is on just about every topic. You have to admire how he never let's things like facts or stats get in the way of his own personal biases. The man has never met a hill he wasn't afraid to die on.

@GailSimone Hell Cow?

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

[Tyrese Haliburton @Hali]

Man. Don’t know how to explain it other than shock. Words cannot express the pain of this letdown. The frustration is unfathomable. I’ve worked my whole life to get to this moment and this is how it ends? Makes no sense.

Now that I’ve gotten surgery, I wish I could count the number of times people will tell me I’m going to “come back stronger”. What a cliche lol, this shit sucks. My foot feels like dead weight fam. But what’s hurting most I think is my mind. Feel like I’m rambling, but I know this is something I’ll look back on when I’m through this, as something I’m proud I fought through. It feels good to let this shit out without y’all seeing the kid ugly cry.

At 25, I’ve already learned that God never gives us more than we can handle. I know I’ll come out on the other side of this a better man and a better player. And honestly, right now, torn Achilles and all, I don’t regret it. I’d do it again, and again after that, to fight for this city and my brothers. For the chance to do something special.

Indy, I’m sorry. If any fan base doesn’t deserve this, it’s y’all. But together we are going to fight like hell to get back to this very spot, and get over this hurdle. I don’t doubt for a second that y’all have my back, and I hope you guys know that I have yours. I think Kobe said it best when in this same situation. “There are far greater issues/challenges in the world then a torn achilles. Stop feeling sorry for yourself, find the silver lining and get to work with the same belief, same drive and same conviction as ever.” And that’s exactly right. I will do everything in my power to get back right.

My journey to get to where I am today wasn’t by happenstance, I’ve pushed myself every day to be great. And I will continue to do just that. The most important part of this all, is that I’m grateful. I’m grateful for every single experience that’s led me here. I’m grateful for all the love from the hoop world. I don’t “have to” go through this, I get to go through this. I’m grateful for the road that lies ahead. Watch how I come back from this. So, give me some time, I’ll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton.

RETWEET if you want Sen. Mike Lee to resign from The Senate.

Not all heroes wear capes and whatnot.

@GailSimone I mean, obviously...

@StrangePages @EddieMcstriplin Anything by Lemire. He's done some work for the big 2, but his original work makes him my fave. Black Hammer is a must for any comics fan. Sweet tooth, Descender, the list goes on.
