Why should a gold medalist race a streamer for free?
Speed is talented. No knock to him. But yall really have to start respecting people’s craft and the time and effort they put into it. There are levels.

@james3neal @123POW @james3neal, look how small the world is. When my younger brother began as a professor, Peace was his collaborating librarian. They worked at UT Arlington on various projects together.

I somehow forgot to add Ultimate Black Panther to my comic book pull list. But when I got to my local shop, they had it for me. How? Why?

@proseb4bros, ok, we've never met, but that loud sound you heard this weekend was just me gasping and going, "heeeey!!!" when your book made a cameo in "American Fiction." Good look.
