The new Whitney Museum is out! And boy, does the the big apple instances have neat video animation renderings of it. I don’t understand what that architecture overview says however I sure did scroll through it and watch the movies while I was attempting (and failing) to think of an artwork-museum themed pun on “snowstorm.” Jerry Saltz wrote about the museum itself and that i someway managed to learn all of it, although it was once only made from words? I’m positive there are not any broader conclusions to be drawn from this.

We’re talking Slack once more! Stewart talked to Farhad ultimate week concerning the company’s eleventy-billion greenback valuation, and how most effective an fool would turn down what’s at this level free cash. Then nowadays Amanda Hess wrote about Slack for Slate and precipitated the inevitable boomlet of Slack anxiety that always follows publicity for the corporate. Slack is simply `net chat that’s at last better than IRC, which has, for decades, been the web’s lowest but-unhurdled bar.

Nick Denton is “intensely comfortable” a few that you can think of Gawker union, while by some means Buzzfeed was immediately operating the Pepsi twitter account all the way through the Superbowl? There’s quite a lot of different stuff in that submit however that was once the principle thing that had me going “????” i can’t be the one one who thinks that’s shady as heck proper?

conversing of shady as heck! Michael Eric Dyson goes in on his (now ex-) buddy and mentor Cornel West like

Dyson pointed out it a little bit extra to the foundation as well. I’m anticipating extra Takes TK on this, however do read it in the event you haven’t but, there’s loads there.

Ernest Baker wrote about how cool it is to be chums with Drake, and it’s a truly nice read when you think about that it’s now not about rapper and actor Aubrey Drake Graham but about an exact male duck. test it out:

I get a textual content from Drake at 12:34 AM.

“Quack quack quack? Quack quack quack quack quack.“

The Duck—as so much of his team refers to him—is having a birthday celebration tonight. The protect on the entrance to his gated Hidden Hills local tells me that Drake has reached his restrict on friends for the night. Even with an invitation, get right of entry to to Drake’s house requires effort.

Seconds later, a black, heavily-tinted Escalade arrives at the gate. the driver rolls down the window and calls out my title.

Finessssssse.

Medium delivered blockading. Twitter added open DMs and needs to trademark “Tweetstorm”. The day-to-day Mail exceeded even its own high requirements for garb behaviour. tell us your story. The A.V. club oral historical past of airplane is fantastic. right here’s the most annoying javascript ever.

In an industry full of artists who both don’t take note feminine anatomy, or else straight-up hint faces and poses from porn, Frank Cho has been identified for hanging out a extra respectable roughly cheesecake.

but that changed two weeks ago, when Cho posted a sketch of fairly-new (and canonically young) super-hero Spider-Gwen to his weblog. The sketch is a “parody” of a particularly controversial, Spider-woman cover by using Milo Manara.

Anger over Cho’s sketch steadily grew, with Spider-Gwen artist Robbi Rodriguez chipping in to call foul, and comics luminaries like Rob Liefeld leaping to Cho’s safety. (April 20, 2015), Cho introduced that he’d be donating his $1000 commission for the sketch to the charity house of Ruth, and that everyone who didn’t like the sketch was once an idiot, and that every one this outrage had actually simply been feeding the Chroll.

if you’ve seen any equivalent controversy on the internet recently, all these beats: the cries of “free speech”; the accusations of contrived outrage; and the exhortations that you just don’t get the comic story. however ComicsAlliance, offering a extra exact timeline than i have room for right here, ends the story with a word of hope. These controversies are happening since the target audience is altering, and the trade with it.

now not speedy enough, obviously. however however, comics do work on an elastic timeline.

It’s good to have friends who record again to me from the worlds of comics and gaming so i’ll recognize when they stop being awful (spoiler: never).
