Like the mighty dinosaur, the word “bombdiggity” had its time on earth, then vanished.

Post a banger not in English. youtu.be/cBqq_3d_tO0?...

Online comic store sent me a comic I didn’t order. I asked if I could return it for store credit, about $3. They won’t give me a mailing label so it’ll cost me more than $3 to ship it back. I guess I’m keeping a book I didn’t order or want.

If this is correct, 7x more people WERE IN THE SUPER BOWL STADIUM than watched the racist alternative halftime show.

I’m going to lose so much money on this Super Bowl (I’m online buying used books).

If I had to sing the national anthem for the Super Bowl I’d make sure I started off real low, that way the high notes wouldn’t be so hard to hit. I’m not much of a singer.

Please don’t ruin the Super Bowl with your piss poor opinions on CC DeVille’s solo in “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.”

Girl, that’s JUST like Sister Ray said.

From @acyn.bsky.social (posted on X) "Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal? Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail… Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you. Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."

Maybe “Commonsense Reform” was Chuck Schumer’s dog when he was a kid, and if he says his name enough times he thinks it’ll come back to life.

Oh god the dad rock cover band is doing a call and response to “Billy Jean.”

Listening to an OK cover band play Eric Clapton’s “Wonderful Tonight” and some guy just screamed “WOOOOOOOOOI!!!!!” like he ascended to dad rock paradise.

It’s quite appropriate that we celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday fighting against armed soldiers led by a demented maniac. For the 200th we just got a new fun quarter and Disney World did a new fun parade.

The Clerks Animated Series, where they do a flashback episode, but since they’ve only done one episode so far all they can do it flashback to scenes from that first episode.

TWO vast and trunkless legs of stone? In THIS economy??!?!?

Hey! Check out this bullshit! In 1980 the Federal Reserve Bank of NY published a comic to teach people about what “credit” was. They did a version in Spanish too! The Spanish version was published without a color cover.

I named my fists Lennon and McCartney because they're gonna leave your face in a jar by the door

I listened to Link Wray’s “Rumble” a few times tonight and decided to learn how to play it. Reverb ALL the way up. It it such a brutal, nasty song (and remarkably easy). But damn, it’s awesome.

Reading Daredevil from the beginning and I’m glad that modern writers dropped the subplot of “everybody wants Matt Murdock to get surgery so he can see again” that Stan Lee was big on in the ‘60s.

Wish me luck, I just submitted a paper to my first international conference…

Grapes’r big this season.

Scott Adams and I may have disagreed a lot on politics, but I also didn’t like his comics.

“New York is the Madripoor of America.”

@mayor.nyc.gov Mayor Mamdani moving from an apartment to a large house today, and like all of us, will have the momentary thought of, “There’s so much space here, I should start building a model railroad in a spare bedroom.”

It’s rare to get under 3 minutes in a NYT crossword, but I did it on the Tuesday puzzle for tomorrow! I’ve only done it twice before.

Oh hell yeah autistic Barbie.

The first non-manga/comic book I finished this year is Umberto Eco’s “How To Travel With A Salmon”, a collection of short and not-so-short essays by a man who was brilliant and who talks so far over my head that I just have to kind of go with it and accept I don’t understand it all.

Believe it or not, this is the first appearance of Gizmoduck.

Tom Nook dating simulator.

Any post could be your last.

Getting handed $200 and being driven to a used bookstore would fix me.

A tale of two social media platforms: Bluesky today: The invasion of Venezuela clearly illustrates that the US is a rogue state and we lack an opposition party. Tumblr today: TELL ME EXACTLY WHY I SHOULDN’T EAT HAWK MEAT

Now I can’t even enjoy watching the collapse of the AI bubble without worrying about Venezuela.

Sitting in my office, listening to the Small Faces, as the US has invaded Venezuela, feeling absolutely useless, ally-less, without much hope or recourse. I haven’t stopped clenching my jaw since 7 am.

Koji Shiraishi’s “About A Place in the Kinki Region” is all over the place but it’s terrifying. Something new and horrible appears every couple minutes. Shares a lot of DNA with his other films, but that’s to be expected. Seeing this in a theater would drive me mad. Excellent film.

I’m halfway into Koji Shiraishi’s new film “About A Place in the Kinki Region” and I already know I NEED this on blu-ray, with commentary. This is WILD. @juliansingleton.bsky.social

Baby’s First Book of Cosmic Horrors.

2026 is the year I start saying “supper” instead of “dinner”.

I have zero idea how many non-comic books I read this year. At least twice this year I packed up all the read books into boxes and placed them in the “catacombs”, which is what I call the secret passage between our fuse box and water heater. We have a secret passage, yeah.

My orange cat, Fred, who, after hiding from the catsitter for six days and, presumably, avoiding meals, has now become the most clingy adorable furball in the world and sleeps curled up between us all night, under the covers. He has not left our sides.

My love for you will still be strong After the girls gone wild are gone

Surprising amount of blood on the floor of the Schnuck’s today.

America, there's something you should know. The top three kinds of books that young people (under 25) offer to sell me on Dec. 26 are: - "Chicken Soup for the _____" - "Oh, the Places You'll Go" - Books of New Yorker cartoons I'm just saying. Keep it in mind for graduations and birthdays, too.

Look what someone did to the new Avengers trailer dyyyyying www.tiktok.com/t/ZTr3hr2A6/

Ok, NOW it’s Christmas!
