Any friends out there have access to this New York Times article that could send me a PDF? You’d be helping contribute to the conclusion of my upcoming Batman book!

So this new “Privacy Display” feature on Samsung’s Galaxy S26 is funny to me because not too many years ago, all the conversation about displays on phones and tablets was about viewing angles and brightness. Now the market is shifting to the opposite.

RIP Scott Adams. It’s wild to think about how, not long ago, newspaper comic strips were genuine cultural forces. Dilbert was funny but by no means a revolution in the art form a la Calvin and Hobbes, but it was *everywhere.* There was a Dilbert TV show!

@JonahDispatch @SonnyBunch Jonah, I really think you’d enjoy my history of Schulz’s Peanuts and the evolution of the newspaper and television industry in postwar America. Helps to make sense of how the function of media has shifted in the 21st c. shorturl.at/xeWdp

@SonnyBunch Fun fact: My Dad gave him his start. I still remember him telling me the day he hired him as a cartoonist.

Charlie Hicks ate his lunch and dinner at the Shrimp Basket in Pensacola, Florida, every day for 10 years. When he suddenly stopped showing up, the chef went looking for him – ultimately saving his life. @SteveHartmanCBS is On the Road.

@Md1819 You are so right! There actually is a Japanese translation of Charlie Brown’s America, too!

@bsb1945 I have a great book idea for you; as a companion to your Charlie Browns America, you could write ‘Snoopy’s Japan’…he is simply HUGE there!
