Congress does not function, it's the root cause of much that is wrong with our politics, and that is partly because of poor design but also because members have been shirking responsibility for decades now

My friend's sister used to drive us to high school. She'd play the same burnt CD of P.O.D. every morning. Every. Morning. And you know what? ...I friggin' LOVED it. STILL do. The definition of a guilty pleasure. 20+ years later, I'm still super hyped every time I hear ALIVE.

COMIC BOOK REVIEW: Radiant Black #33 When one of Rogue Sun’s villains comes to town, the hero can’t be far behind, but there’s still a multidimensional threat to be faced. @imagecomics.com majorspoilers.com/2025/04/30/r...

"I have never felt more for Marshall." — @ngfriar.bsky.social How could Friar say that following the Catalyst War? Find out in @imagecomics.com' Radiant Black #33 from @kyledhiggins.bsky.social, Joe Clark and @eduardoferigato.bsky.social

One of my pet peeves is the absolute dominance of Scott Joplin’s rags in media to represent anytime from 1870 to 1930. Hobos during the great depression? Scott Joplin. YouTube documentary about young Edison? Scott Joplin. Soundtrack added to an old silent short? You already know.

My mental health is at “I just watched a Austin Powers Fat Bastard compilation”

That’s right: Fifty-ONE Shades of Grey

Considering it’s such a sacred holiday, I think it’s beautiful that Pope Francis died on 4/20

What is it with fascists and tattoos?

After a very busy last few weeks, I took a half edible last night to finish up my taxes and get my refund... and it hit me right as I caught an error that showed I owed a lot more than I expected. Not recommended.

One of my secrets for happiness is to be a total snob with exacting taste about some things (donuts, confidantes) and have absolutely no snobbery for others (beer, movies).

Spotted in the background in About Last Night (1986): a flyer for The Jazz Showcase. Joe Henderson, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Charles McPherson, and Joe Farrell.

My brain: nice project there, would be a shame if I... came up with the most complicated way to do it.

lmao what are we even doing

On the bright side, we're about to find out if Lee Harvey Oswald truly in fact did work alone

Smash Mouth or Pass Mouth?

All these new medicines have long, weird names. They should give one new medicine a short name, like Jimp.

What a great surprise to start the week: The Very Fine Comic Book Podcast did an episode on Deep Cuts! I’ve been a big fan of this pod (and all of Justin Decloux’s other shows/books/endeavors) for a while so this is a real treat for me. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

highly recommended episode of system crash with @parismarx.com @bcmerchant.bsky.social and @edzitron.com casually explaining so many thing so much better than my own clumsy efforts

Nearly took the family to Woodstock for Groundhog Day but decided it was too early--and now I'm KICKING myself because STEPHEN TOBOLOWSKY was there
