Regular reminder that Axios stories saying Dems are about to cave are likely sourced from GOP staffers trying to make it happen. Doesn't mean it definitely won't happen. But it's like those NYT stories that Harvard is considering caving (they haven't). The anonymous source was trying to manifest it.

Hellsing con commission

axios dunking aside, though, i wouldn't be surprised if something is nigh, I would just be surprised if it's as simplistic as people are making it sound

you have to read these publications with the same mindset you use to read Nextdoor posts

please watch movies and read books and play games and look at art, please view it with your own eyes through a lens you made yourself and not just through video essayists and ending explained videos please im begging you

Two Tintin drawings from 11 years ago(!).

I don’t trust axios but call your senators ASAP. The deal (supposedly) is the promise of a vote in December to maybe extend the ACA subsidies

You might enjoy these quotes from Falk talking in general about Columbo's "reaching into pockets" business. (In that same interview he told me about directing "Blueprint for Murder" and getting help from Cassavetes and Spielberg.)

Intellivision Archive opens 1982 wirh Star Strike, Mattel’s knock off of Star Wars’ trench run that wound up as a high selling, critically (and artistically) acclaimed game youtu.be/lO0pup2Wizs

I don't know if it just speaks to the crowd of people online I like to hang out with, but I don't know what to do with the fact that I keep running into people, who are significantly older than me, who seem to have never quite grown out of their teenage edgelord phase

𝔗𝔥𝔞𝔫𝔨 𝔜𝔬𝔲 𝔏𝔲𝔠𝔨𝔶 𝔗𝔬𝔟𝔦𝔫 Dedicated to "Lucky" Tobin, who in his seventeen years savaged 4 werewolves, rescued 8 children from 6 separate Faerie abductions, drove off uncounted ghouls from innumerable cemeteries and banished all manner of ghosts, revenants, and wraiths who threatened mankind.

I found a Billy Joel gacha

Mamdani is going to implement Sha-Na-Na Law. Based in the sensibilities of the 50s but incongruously showing up at Woodstock.

In conclusion, Beep looks and sounds like a fake product from a TV show in 1992. being used by Gen-X to cynically mock the products of atomic age Boomers, complete with stock string music and corny voiceover narration

i cant believe how fun he is to draw

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.

Between this scene and the bit in the Tomino novels where Char is shocked that Bright finds Haro annoying, I can only conclude that Char is not immune to Haro, which is very cute

Yeah this is pretty fun

But I have to say, I'm kinda fascinated by the emergence of what's indisputably a "gen AI style." It's almost identical to the second-most abstracted face in @scottmccloud.bsky.social's degrees-of-cartooning line-up in Understanding Comics. Blank. Vague. Bland. Just sauceless. Dot-eyed voids.

lmao i left a google review about this (3 stars even!) so no one else would waste time going there repeatedly only to be disappointed & got a long super rude reply from the owners telling me no one reads comics monthly anymore and "get bent"??? avoid vinyl fantasy in bushwick like the plague

Still hoping whoever decided this should be called "Bruce Lee's Greatest Hits" knows what a good job they did

Bruce Lee: His Greatest Hits (the Big Boss / Fist of Fury / the Way of the Dragon / Enter the Dragon / Game of Death) (the Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray] is $62.48 on Amazon buff.ly/0D5oIZO B&N buff.ly/3UB1kvn

Had a belated realization that the main reason my interest in Doctor Who eventually waned was that I saw the BBC miniseries version of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy first and that's basically got all the thing's I'd want out of Who without the stuff I don't and it's only 6 episodes long

Don't tell me I can't draw, brother Some prime hunks of ridiculous beef available next weekend at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social for £40 each!

"The Bechdel test" is to my mind very much like "Godwin's Law": these were general observations about pernicious habits in our society that people somehow interpreted as being moral laws that must be followed to the letter.

Three Unbelievable Fall Time Facts

i cannot find it now but i SWEAR there is video from when they demolished an obsolete hospital building in buffalo by imploding it and you can hear in the background that people are tailgating and start signing the buffalo bills fight song when it implodes

On a lark I decided to check out some of music Joe Hisaishi was doing before he became the Ghibli Music Guy and it delights me that his first real album is this minimalist-modern classic-jazz hybrid thing www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVnz...

As a Music Fan: Well I think the confines of genre are socially determined and one work can cover several genres. What *really* is the difference between some at the end of the day? Are we talking about genre signifiers or the core sound? As a Musician: yeah whatever I make folk punk

Tower Dungeon (Tsutomu Nihei)

I was reminded of Cynicalman by @mikester.bsky.social, which is always a greatt thing to be reminded by, but it has causes me to down a rabbit whole trying to find a nice clean scan of the "Cynicalman Seal of Gurdging Approval" that I once saw online and can no longer find
