To the bank with the billboard I see every time I come back from Minneapolis: I'm glad you're proud to serve "Southeast Minnesota", but are you sure that you want to abbreviate "Southeast Minnesota"?

Due to limited theater access and not enough horror people in my immediate life, I am just now catching Obsession now that it's streaming.

Was busy last week, so just catching up on the latest X-Men '97. "What is awaiting you there?" "It's more about what's not waiting for me." Don't make me relive Gambit's death this early in the season.

Sorry, I've got to get back to my knitting

I drove past a store sign that said "Rack Room", which I think is the next big Scooby-Doo project

Stuck in a vacation rental with just cable and The Ring 2 just started on Showtime. So I guess I'm just watching The Ring 2 on a Tuesday night.

Officially ending all my introductions from here on out with "and I'm real!"

It's weird to me that the original run of Teen Titans was only off the stands for two years before the big New Teen Titans relaunch in 1980 (not counting a three year hiatus from 1973-1976).

It's not truly the 4th until the shark pops out of the water.

So until last night, I hadn't seen more than the first couple episodes of My Adventures with Superman. Before bed last night, I sat down and finished the first season. I had some.... thoughts about the "coming out" episode.

Oh well. It certainly would not be the first box office bomb I loved. It's not even the first box office bomb featuring a female protagonist in a science fiction world fighting men who look like cenobites that I loved, either. 😂

I do ALSO like that Supergirl presents why she isn’t Superman without making Superman a dickhead. He loves her and is worried for her but respects her right to live the life she chooses.

Just got out of Supergirl. Such a fun time. Definitely a worthy adaptation of Woman of Tomorrow. It has the potential of being a new comfort movie for me. Solid 8/10.

Why "frogs and rye bread are the new automobiles"

nazi punks something something

Go get a cat! There's too many cats, go get yourself a cat. (spay and neuter your pets) It's cat-getting time!

All Terfs are trash.

A discussion of Resident Evil last night had someone bring up the concept art for Resident Evil 1 and someone else said it looked like a 90s Saturday morning cartoon, which led me to my newest project. I decided the SatAM version wouldn't actually be called Resident Evil, so it's S.T.A.R.S.

The amount of people that insist there was nothing sexual going on between the vampires in Anne Rice’s books… were we reading the same books, y’all?

The issue where Spider-Man finally learns what sex is?

Happy Pride Month!

Game of the goddamn year

It's neat seeing a Final Fantasy VII ad from back when it was just the new Final Fantasy game and not the cultural behemoth with its own spinoffs, sequels, prequels, movies, remakes, spinoffs from remakes, ect. (Final Fantasy VII, 1997)

there’s music for literally every activity

Every "new" "Tobacco is whacko (if you're a teen)" ad I find makes me more convinced it's supposed to be a reverse psychology thing. (anti-smoking ad paid for by a tobacco company, 2000)

Everyone's bonked out. (Chocolate flavored Bonkers candy, 1986)

It's funny to see Waverly called "the armpit of Iowa". I grew up near Waverly. It's, like, a fairly nice small college town.

My big dumb project for this weekend: attempting to organize these big dumb piles of comics

I've had too much time on my hands lately, so I made my best attempt at recreating my favorite new Marvel characters of the last few years, The Outliers from Uncanny X-Men by @gailsimone.bsky.social, in WWE 2K26. All four are on Community Creations on PS5.

The bisexual dilemma

I saw this post at 1:30 AM, saw the phrase "interview with the walrus", and immediately got inspired to spend the next hour making this. I didn't get to sleep until 3 AM because there was art to be done

I went thrifting yesterday and found a giant bag of McDonald's employee hats from 1995. This isn't all of them, just the unique ones. There are also hats that just say McDonald's, but I'm limited to four pictures and felt these were more interesting. Maybe the dumbest $5 I've ever spent.

Dropout Live tonight!

Rare behind the scenes tidbit from the admin: I don't quite remember why I needed to do it this way, I ended up with this half step image. Here you can more easily see my messy clone stamp work. I had been sitting on this edit since January 4th.

My package arrived with the tape already partially broken, which just makes me think someone tried to steal it thinking it was something cool or expensive because it was heavy, then saw that it was just a giant hardcover Batman book and were like "never mind, it's just some nerd shit"

I spent yesterday catching up on the better part of a year worth of the @gailsimone.bsky.social run of Uncanny X-Men. A brief thread of some highlights:

That (if you're a teen) bit at the end seems a little out of nowhere until you see who sponsored this. (double faced smoking PSA, 2000)

"You know what the kids in 2001 love and will definitely understand? The satirical writings of Jonathan Swift." (Reebok, 2001)

"Clark, who are you winking at? Pete, do you know what's going on?"

Long love apple and cherry! (Hostess Fruit Pies, circa 1977)

"Mommy, how did you and daddy meet?" "Well honey, I paid $3.00 for a dating guide I saw in a comic book." (dating guide, 1983)

Way back in the distant year of 2023, I started a side account on a certain other site dedicated to fun ads I find while reading old comics. I have officially moved it here. I hope to revive it both through new additions and reposts of the greatest hits from the old account.

doctor doctor gimme the news ive got an unworn pair of baby shoes

Posting this now before the RGG social media team makes an official version as a Kiwami 3 ad.

Listen all of y'all, it's a sabotage Listen most of y'all, it's a sabotage Listen half of y'all, it's a sabotage Listen some of y'all, it's a sabotage Listen one of y'all, it's a sabotage Listen anyone, it's a sabotage

"You're juicy AND mega now?"

Officially cutting off all communication not done through the Kermit the Frog landline.

I've seen it twice now and will probably watch it a third and maybe even fourth time over the weekend.
