🥳Happy Birthday, Astro, for your 23rd #birthday! In the original manga, he was born on April 7, 2003. Your compassion toward humanity is what we need the most now. (pic. at the entrance of @TEZUKA_ENG) #OsamuTezuka #AstroBoy

Here's an amazingly thorough, carefully researched and produced podcast about the history of manga in America, by Mattt. Highly recommended. youtu.be/W51QlQVWqwQ

The following interview helped me understand many things about the Epstein/Trump mystery. Journalist Wolff's careful replies, reportedly backed up with 100 hours of tapes, should encourage voters to be cautious about who they elect. vickywardinvestigates.com/p/…

【Itaru Kinoshita “Comics in the City” Event at CCA】 The first part of the “Comics in the City” event was held at California College of the Arts (CCA). At the talk session, with MINT advisor Deb Aoki @debaoki moderating, Itaru Kinoshita @kurinosukeboy talked about dinosaurs, making manga, and more. Shinchosha editor Tomoka Matsumura provided insight as the editor for “Dinosaur Sanctuary” with Fred Schodt @fschodt providing interpretation. After the talk was a Q&A session where participants asked questions about his works and life as a manga artist. At the book signing after the talk session, many “Dinosaur Sanctuary” fans were happy to receive sketches and autographs! #MINT #Mangacreators2025 #manga #comics #illustration #ItaruKinoshita #DinosaurSanctuary #CaliforniaCollegeoftheArts

Thoughts on the 4th of July. 249 years after a War of Independence to free ourselves from a monarchy and form a radical new democratic republic, who do we have as president? A fat capitalist pig, a narcissist masquerading as a populist, who wants to be king.
