New designs for new comics. Working on a little racing comic, about a lazy autonomous car. Racing in an endurance race that crosses the whole world.

Super excited for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off! I saw the Toronto premiere, we walked out of there a little stunned.

Scott Pilgrim feels like the kind of hit that can't happen anymore. It’s wild to me that the book was so popular. When I read it when I was 17 I felt like it was written just for me. But also the movie is the kind of cult classic that can't happen anymore. Where the movie studio puts in way to much money, and give the creators just enough creative freedom to make the movie for a specific audience. The result was a movie that is so much better than it has any right to be.

And now we’ve got this weird anime. It’s all unbelievable.

You make a thousand copies before breakfast. That doesn't make you part of the entertainment industry.

This is the LAST WEEKEND to back the Kickstarter campaign for the audiobook of my next novel, The Lost Cause. These kickstarters are how I pay my bills, which lets me publish my free essays nearly every day. If you enjoy my work, please consider backing!

Back when every book had a printing press in its history, every record a record-pressing plant, every film a film-lab, “making or handling copies of creative works” was a pretty good test to determine whether someone was part of the entertainment industry. Even if it turned out they weren’t, the kind of person who has a record-pressing plant can afford to consult an expert to make sure they’re on the right side of the law.

But a funny thing happened on the way to the 21st Century. We started using computers for everything. And computers work by making copies.

The mere act of reading this article created dozens — if not hundreds — of copies of it. These copies flashed in and out of existence in network buffers, switches and routers, graphics buffers and RAM, in multiple content distribution network caches and in your browser’s cache.

It’s a near-dead-certainty that much of what you do violates the black letter of copyright law. We could simplify copyright until everyone who uses the internet for anything could easily grasp its contours and stay within them. But any copyright that is made simple enough for kids doing their homework and people using a dating site to follow would be way too crude for me and the various parties in my supply chain to follow.

My next novel is The Lost Cause, a hopeful novel of the climate emergency. Amazon won't sell the audiobook, so I made my own and I'm pre-selling it on Kickstarter!
