Post canon Electra who goes on to freight service with Conrail 2: Electric Boogaloo (in a better timeline where they hadn't de-electrified in the early 80s). In my mind you can turn some knobs and change Electra from passenger to freight gearing (like most real electric locos) and they get thicker and stronger (if somewhat slower) in that form.

It's a common direction with express electric engines after they get pushed out speed-wise. Usually they're powerful enough to be decent in faster freight services. See the PRR GG1s, Rc classes in Sweden, and a number of Nez Cassé classes (even the CC 40100s were intended to be usable for it)

it wouldn’t work well on a actual stage, but in my mind a child’s hand the size of the Bridge is a major character that descends from the heavens and places/removes/messes around with trains as usually cruel, fickle, omnipotent god. It’s just so much funnier than Control being a physical kid and emphasizes how tiny everyone actually is.

I will never lose the mental image of the failed Thomas TV spot from 1953 where an Henry fell off the tracks and had to be manually stuck back on

“Go to hell” = basic, overused. No one bats an eye. “I hope they replace all the epic swords and blades in the new adaptation of your favorite story with guns” is terrifying. It’s unique. It could happen.

This is making the rounds on BlueSky, but I haven't seen it here yet.

Twitter is rolling out a "Recreat this with Grok" button directly on images now when you open them. Also, some people have experience their artwork getting labeled as 'made with Grok'

I understand why some people have tried to stay but, please at the very least start transitioning your work to other places so at the very least you have a exit without hurting your finances too much.

Twitter is only going to become more hostile towards artists. It's full of poison and it's only a matter of time before it fully erodes.

I dunno maybe I’m way way off base and I’m gonna pay for it later in life but I just don’t think that letting my kid dip a few pretzel sticks in Nutella an hour before dinner should be considered morally unconscionable.

A lot of leftist accounts are suspiciously quiet on the section 504 lawsuit, proposed medicaid cuts, and the "make America healthy again" executive order.

I know other leftists are not the enemy but if we don't have able bodied allies and general population support, there's no hope of pushing back against these ableist policies. These big accounts ignoring a massive minority at risk is scary. The current admin is the problem but there's no hope of a solution without allyship.

We need visibility. We need allies.
