Missed all the Gen X discourse yesterday, but those of us who are actually in the generation have explained this ad nauseam. We had the ultimate worst bullies and mean kids in our generation growing up, and they were never, EVER checked because adults didn't GAF. Also, Black Gen X is Democratic.

Deliverance, but for kids! Also, why does Grandma Ding-A-Ling look so much like Aunt May? #HostessAdADay (ish) #Thor #HostessFruitPies

Yourself, but as a cartoon. (Either one works, depending on the day.)

Signal boosting. I've known Dr Gill forever online... an amazing human. Please get the word out and donate if you can. I'm from Bangor and this effort means the world to me.

Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

I only ever got to experience Uncle Floyd via clips on Nickelodeon's Turkey Television and later a "best of" DVD, but what I did see was always fantastic. A throwback to kiddie TV of old while also punk AF. RIP Uncle Floyd.

On the bright side, it's the perfect time or Green Day to release a fancy deluxe remastered version of American Idiot.

true story

MTV didn't shut down, just some of its international & remaining music-only offshoots. It still exists, and is probably showing a marathon of The Challenge right now (no matter when the "right now" that you're reading this happens to be). You're lamenting the *idea* of MTV, and that died ages ago.

All I want for Christmas is the ability to digest cheese properly.

I'm so sorry if your parents were horrid, you have a full right to cut them off.

PSA: Treat your kids with love and respect, openly discuss boundaries and consent, encourage them, never turn down when they want affection, treat them as separate individuals, be endlessly thoughtful and gentle to them, and laugh every day together. 100% chance of a lifelong bond.

Has anyone ever done a production of Glengarry Glen Ross where Ricky Roma is female? All that sad, toxic dude energy flying around and the person they all aspire to be, the office BSD, is a woman. I bet that'd make it super interesting above and beyond the fact that they say fuck 345873967497 times.

Jeez, even the human actors look AI these days. In 5-10 years Dove Cameron will have fully evolved into Pixar Mom form.

In a world of Quentin Tarantinos, be a Matthew Lillard.

I don't understand all the people who miss Blockbuster. I miss all the quirky local video stores that Blockbuster drove out of business!

What if Pluto is just as anthropomorphic as Goofy and chooses to live as a regular dog, whether "getting back to nature" or some fetish thing he has going on with Mickey that, for good or ill (you can decide which for yourself), no one openly acknowledges? Either way, we should respect his choice.

The more I've thought about the last two seasons of Doctor Who (this last finale especially), and the era before them also, the more frustrated & annoyed I've become (down to writing & showrunning, not the actors), left wondering why I even loved the show in the first place. #DoctorWho /1

This was an important moment on Collision, made all the better by what a big deal it wasn't. 🏳️‍🌈 #wrestlesky www.ringsidenews.com/aew-quietly-...

No state elections in RI, no elections in my town. I've got real voter envy over here. Go and do some democracy in your areas if you can, my invincible internet super pals.

After meaning to for years I finally read Lungbarrow. People always talk about it in terms of #DoctorWho canonicity & whether or not to delve into Doctor's origins, but I think they all miss the main point: going home to spend holidays with the family is horrible and awkward for EVERYONE.

Re: last re-whatever they're called here

my friends, I am in a 10-person capacity record bar in Tokyo requesting songs and drinking Japanese whisky. the owners are a married couple chain smoking behind the bar, slinging cocktails, and spinning records. this is heaven??? goodbye forever I have died ✌️

Wearing new sneakers today and not one person has asked me "Can you run real fast now?," "can you jump higher now?," or, because they're New Balance, "Sir, are you okay? Do you need assistance?"

ICE agents greeted by a hero on arrival in New York this evening. Make statues of this.

Important information. 🧵

Is it just me or does it seem like Rapture season starts earlier every year?

If we're judging age in McDonald's time now, I remember getting the first themed Happy Meals.

Mego Star Trek Action Playset, 1975

Rich people are RIDICULOUS WEIRDOS and if you really want a bipartisan working class issue THAT IS IT. THEY ARE SO FUCKIN WEIRD. STOP TRYING TO APPEAL TO BIGOTS AND LAUGH AT THEM

"Can you believ..." Just gonna stop you there because yes, I can. There's no crush depth in Cruelty Ocean, no summit to Mt. Insanity. None of it surprises me, and hasn't for a long time now.

Equal parts "oh hells YES" and "oh dear gawd NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

I've already seen people online saying "Well, actually, NBC considered this date to be Star Trek's special sneak preview airing and the real premiere was September the WhoTheHellCaresth" and Jesus Howard Tap Dancing Christ, no one ever needs to be *that* guy. (And it's always a guy.)

'Star Trek' made its NBC debut on this day in 1966.

Chicago is maybe my favorite city in these United(?) States. Hope the people there stay safe. And also that they give the bastards hell.

Share one of your favorite moments from a COMIC BOOK film or TV show.

Politician who actively helped it all happen, is nearing the end of his life, and starts feeling the flames of hell singeing his ass says what?

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

Given how much he luvs attention of any kind, even the hate feeds his ego. Stop talking about him, ignore the guy altogether, don't point a microphone or camera his way, pay no mind to those who do. It would be devastating, I'm sure. But, also, you know, release the Epstein Files.

I think, in light of all the rotten people out there spreading terf nonsense, today would be a good day to support trans creators. Trans folk, please add your links to this thread for books or crafts or whatever you do!

Actual thing I just said out loud to myself: "Gah, you're annoying the hell out of me and I'm *you*.

🧵 Been working on this a while now, the Fortress of Solitude, based on the comics & the 1978 movie. Had fun filling it up with stuff like various eras' Superman robots, various traditional Superman tchotchkes, a few jokes for myself (a bent metal rod, Lex Luthor's hair). #lego #legosky #superman

TIL that Barbra Streisand, Cher, Liza Minelli, and Bette Midler are not EGOT winners. Even as a cishet white dude I find that kind of appalling.

Looking forward to the deluge of "Chico and the Man" MOCs that'll come about as a result of *finally* having a proper Jack Albertson minifigure head! #lego #legosky
