Lois and Clark are supportive allies and loving parents. Superboy Prime throws anti-trans bigots into the sun when no one is looking. Just before he throws the haters out of earth's atmosphere, he likes to whisper, "You won't be missed."

I enjoy villains who are magnificent bastards. Lex is the most magnificent of all the bastards. And, during the times when he has been an anti-hero, that's worked effortlessly. Lex is an incredibly versatile villain. I didn't like the New 52, but I enjoyed New 52 Lex.

This article is on point.

Well that's brazenly corrupt and dangerous.

Although Blanche is likely the center of the illegal blocking of the Epstein files, it's a group effort, Pam.

Drey Dossier shames the majority of journalists. Be like Drey. Be deeply skeptical. Conduct thorough research. Speak the truth.

There is a direct line from the Powell memo to our current moment.

When I was a desperate teen bibliophile living in a small village in Ontario, reading fiction from earlier decades was one of the key ways that I learned contextual history. It didn't "take me out of the story"-it ground the story in a different time and place and taught me about both.

I was just reading NBA discussion and damn, OKC is HATED because of their flopping and dirty defense. I've seen unpopular dominant teams before, but the Thunder are seriously loathed. I saw a good comment. Cheering against Jordan and Steph was at least entertaining. SGA is just annoying.

There is endless evidence that the US is irredeemably cooked, but this is just such a blatant sign that now it's beyond broken and it's not going to be fixed. Ever.

Ben-Gvir Says Israel ‘Will Not Allow’ Trump to Make a Peace Deal With Iran as IDF Kills Dozens in Lebanon ​An ex-Israeli diplomat said Israel was "moving to bury... talks on Iran" because its policy "is an endless and wide regional war."

I impulsively decided to play Heartstop in stead of Lila. Heartstop is a very strange, lovely, menacing and moving narrative adventure. You are Cora and everyone in your town has become frozen in time, except for you. You will find that you are not alone and try to unravel your frozen world.

Canada's biggest labour body has voted to cut ties with its Israeli counterpart. How Palestine activists eked out a win at the Canadian Labour Congress: pressprogress.ca/clc-histadru...

I'm going to play Who's Lila? It's a psychological horror and mystery where your only interaction is to change your characters facial expressions. THAT is a really cool concept.

Once or twice a year, Israel does something so egregious to Canadians that the federal government has to say tut tut. Then they immediately announce a GREAT!corporate merger with an Israeli company. Anita Anand, "Too bad Israel murdered our citizen. Allow me to stress that anti-Semitism is bad."

For some reason, Trump saying, "I love you all!" on Memorial Day *feels* like one of his most egregious lies. If your child is in the military and they die because of Trump's actions, he won't give a shit. If your kid can't make him wealthier, he will never learn their name. He feels contempt.

I'm finally getting around to watching The Boys from beginning to end. I know from the general discussion that it doesn't end well, but the early seasons are really enjoyable. Plus, the purely crass violence is pretty funny. It's definitely better than the comics.

Smooth Dunk is always funny. Damn, he's talented.

Replies are off so QT even though I find it less generative of discourse: I wrote a book abt Twitter, I promise not wanting to legitimize Nazis/Musk are good enough reasons. And there are others: e.g. threats outlined in this study jumped exponentially after musk takeover & dismantling of t&s team.

Just arrived. Remender's The End League is supposed to be very good and I will start it tonight. The Superman analog in this one is Astonishman. In 1962, Astonishman was tricked into detonating a nuclear weapon in an alien ship on the bottom of the sea. Disaster and death followed.

Apparently "Come to America. We will treat you like shit" isn't a great selling point.

No matter how tough life gets, remember that the world's richest man is also the world's most pathetic, humorless loser. I don't know how how he can sustain this level of humiliation. Does he have six paid lackies who just follow him around chortling, "Good one Elon!... Killshot... Splooge"?

I see that Zero Parades is out from ZA/UM. The game is apparently good, but not Disco Elysium good. Didn't ZA/UM fuck over the Disco Elysium team, however?

I don't just collect Superman, I also have a compulsion to collect analogues of Superman. Irredeemable, The Mighty, Supreme- if it seems like a decent comic, I'll probably pick it up. This week I heard about Rick Veitch's Maximortal. So I have ordered four collections.

Like all far-right grifters, Musk denounces media constantly, but I'm not aware of him admitting to liking anything except for Diablo. I guarantee that he loves a lot of stuff, but won't admit it because it's woke. His lackies would attack him.

When the foundations of American governance was being debated and laid out, one thing the founders agreed upon was the Miriam Adelson should be the most important figure when deciding major elections.

Rape apologists are going hard at the NYT with smears and lies. The author asks if mainstream media will follow the story. No. No they will not. Even if a reporter wished to cover the dishonesty, they will be instructed to not do so.

There are no unspeakably horrible things that could happen to Musk which I would feel bad about. "And his skin just... ripped off? All of it? ...cool."

Alberta is Canada's most representative conservative party in that it is naked corruption in pursuit of rewarding themselves with power and money and rewarding the oil and gas industry AND THEY FEEL THAT THEIR PERSONAL CORRUPTION IS JUST FINE. The "separatists" will violate any norm or law.

The intentional demonization of Islam reaps the consequences that the right want.

Conservatives do not believe in a free market. They have core corporate interests who have purchased them. Then they extract as much taxpayer funds for those interests. They legislate to ensure the maximum amount of profit for those interests. Alberta could be rich. They could have diversified.

Great discussion from the great Substack run by Markham Hislop and others. American and other oil investors will make a killing from Canada's remaining petrochemicals. After which, they will leave behind a toxic timebomb that will cost us hundreds of millions. We could have diversified. We did not.

Guy with visible stink lines: the birth rate,

Here’s an excellent takedown of Gad Saad’s idiotic slop: www.filmsforaction.org/articles/deb...

I'm not a Batman fan (I have probably over 100,000 pages of Superman comics and not a single Batman issue), but it's obvious to me why Absolute Batman is the biggest thing in comics. This is the cover to Absolute Batman 21 and it's amazing. Hell, I'm thinking of picking it up.

I'm watching chapter one of the DC animated Watchmen movies. It's very good. The pacing and voice acting are extremely strong. In 2019 I watched the HBO Watchmen show. It seems almost forgotten now and I should rewatch it, because I loved it at the time. It and Chernobyl were Covid victims.

At some point, I will have to admit that I have enough Superman shirts. That day is not today. And it will also not be tomorrow.

My wonderful child just came out as trans and I'm so worried because the trans community is increasingly hated. Conservatives would rather ruin trans lives than be honest about how their policies are devastating the world. My child is brilliant, witty and so creative. They deserve no hate.

David Frum should not have a platform for so many reasons. This is just humiliating for him. Then again, the man didn't disclose that he was writing material for Ron Prosor as well, which would have cost him his positions with The Atlantic and the Bulwark, if either were responsible journalism.

I just bought WILL: Follow the Light. I read that it feels like a spiritual successor to Firewatch and that sold me. I'm very excited to start playing it. It has been TEN YEARS since Firewatch came out. I'm still bitter that Valve bought Campo Santo and then did nothing.

I not only collect Superman comics, I usually scoop up analogs of Superman as well. I had not heard of E.V.I.L. Heroes, but I love the cover and they are analogs, so.... The hardcover should arrive in a few weeks.

I remember when Israelis were rallying to defend the rapists. There are key moments that should alert you that you will never, NEVER, reach an understanding or accord with certain people. It must chill the bones of dissenting Israelis to see that so many of their fellow citizens are utterly lost.

I have bought a dozen games lately, so I probably shouldn't pick up Subnautica 2. But I just really want to play it...

Incidentally it's incredibly fucked up how few (openly) gay professional athletes there, today, in 2026

You know, with credible, repeated reporting that Israel has weaponized rape, including rape by canine, against Palestinians, you'd think there would be an outcry. But no. There is no line that Israel can trample over that will cause its defenders to realize that they're providing cover for evil.

I just spite-purchased Mixtape. I saw that the usual reactionaries and chuds were attacking the game, so I immediately went and purchased it. It looks like my type of thing. I love games with moving narratives and I love supporting games that are being targeted by illiterate bigots.

Trans people: we're about to be genocided by the US government GOP: Awesome, can't wait Centrists: Thoughts and prayers Liberals: It's your fault because you are a wedge issue and support Palestine Leftists: It's not a real genocide like Palestine is

Selling stolen land in places of worship is done because then you can lie and say that your place of worship is being protested because of bigotry. Not because you're committing screamingly immoral transactions within. This is utter contempt for decency. Selling Palestinian land is evil.

A general, a historian, and an economist are discussing Iran: General: Overwhelming military force is the only way to break the stalemate! Historian: Iran is extremely unlikely to relinquish the leverage which this threat gives them. Economist: Let us assume that the Strait of Hormuz is open...
