I have watched pretty much every season of Survivor. It’s been pretty stale the last (at least) 5 seasons. The occasional great personality helps get me through it. But the last two seasons have been a slog, so I started thinking about why this bubblegum television lost its luster… A pointless 🧵

My brain hole hurts… been fighting this sick for a damn week.

Looks more like Andrew Tate than Andrew Tate 😆

Alien:Earth has been fantastic so far. I knew Noah Hawley would write an amazing story. But this is really fun for anyone into that Universe.

I love going to setlist.com and finding old shows I went to and making a playlist for work or whatever… I have been rocking Ozzy 1998 OzzFest setlist from Deercreek and holy hell that was an amazing show.

"(Maxwell) wasn’t a bystander. She was a predator in couture. She approached 14-year-old girls at gyms, malls, and schools. She promised them opportunity-shopping trips - life-changing connections. Then she delivered them into hell. She didn’t just witness the abuse. She trained them to endure it."

I’m finally getting around to watching Ironheart… it’s okay so far. The girl they got to play Riri is great, it’s cool seeing Eric Andre in the MCU too. I’m only 2 episodes in and I feel like the story is a bit of a mess. Like they wanted to pack everything into it, which makes none of it resonate.

Rip Ozzy… the best

New zine for Zinecinnati… some new and old Animal drawings.

We have been taking our kids and grandkids to the Hall of Justice for over 25 years. Union Terminal is a very special place in Cincinnati. The museum of natural history moved there in 1990 and as a kid it was like walking into a space ship. Thank you @jamesgunn.bsky.social

Thank you @jamesgunn.bsky.social This movie was amazing, the cast was perfect.

Sinners was a pretty cool Vampire movie. The Juke Joint scene is some peak Ryan Coogler filmmaking.

Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League is pretty garbage. DC animation used to be a no brainer, lately it’s been meh at best.

Hot take a few years late… The Hunt for Red October is a mediocre movie at best. Sean Connery may be the worst actor to have such praise.

Possibly my favorite summation of Pride

Incredible

THIS NIGHTMARE WILL BE IN FULL COLOR

I can tell some of you people have never watched the WWF/WWE. Elon is doing a classic “heel turn.” This builds tensions and keeps ratings high. By Electomania 2028, liberals will try to tag Elon in, but he’ll refuse. Then, when Trump is about to be pinned, he’ll bit Dems with a steel chair.

Whenever I see someone post a piece of art done in Procreate and they refer to it as a painting I cringe a little… I don’t mind digital art, but let’s call it what it is and not act like it’s what you want it to be.

People are often surprised that I keep my day job in tech despite doing so much work in comics and education. Quite frankly, things like what happened to Peter David are why. Comics are wonderful and I love working in them, but they do not provide for a stable future. I don't want a GoFundMe.

Yep

Accurate.

Okay, the Rehearsal season 2 is bonkers… Nathan Fielder is a goddamn madman and I love it.

Self portrait

Boy we’re getting real close to “so we should kill those useless eaters,” huh? But it’s not going to come first as a call for murdering disabled or neurodivergent people, it’s going to start exactly where it is - cutting them off from equal access to society, then cutting their services.

Twitter phasing out DMs the day after it comes out that Elon has been using them to arrange drive-through bastards with ladies who were fired from podcasts is so fucking funny

I spent some time with a Trump voter. He was raised full on Reagan Republican. What was interesting to me was how he has fell in love with Twitter now, and never used it before. Also, the RW talking points on Twitter revolve around Zombie Anne Heche and gay druggie Paul Pelosi conspiracies.

Today I realized the battles I would have fought in November/December are no longer battles I have the energy to fight… there are bigger, dumber battles that need my attention and energy.

13 days to support Butter Zine over on the old @kickstarter.bsky.social . This book looks amazing and @camdelrosario.bsky.social and @jas-hice.bsky.social are just 2 of the fantastic artists! www.kickstarter.com/projects/but...

I recently started rewatching Star Trek TNG, season 1 is pretty good, but season 2 has been very strong. I love the Data as Sherlock Holmes episode.

America voting for Trump… AGAINo mm

I watched a guy jump out of a moving car going about 30mph today.Dude flopped all over the road, hoped up, grabbed his shoe and started running the opposite direction. Then he laid down in a driveway like 10 houses down. I asked if he needed help, he said “nope, I’m good”. Smdh it’s wild out there.

I hate this timeline… www.slashfilm.com/1813355/loon...

Bumfuzzled pages. Slowly plugging away at this comic.

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

Finally watched Hellboy: The Crooked Man… I really liked it. I felt like it was the most comic book accurate movie we have had yet, and I really have enjoyed all the the Hellboy movies to date.

I backed this project on Kickstarter a long while back, totally worth the wait.The Complete Dick Briefer Frankenstein, remastered. I would never be able to afford these issues so it’s cool to get them.

My daughters and I went out to a few small shops around town today. We found a straight gem in Cincinnati today. Treasuretronics is a synth paradise, they had a lot of really cool music equipment and John the owner was amazing. They have a vintage Minimoog he encourages you to play on!
