My roommate just said she misses the era of fashion where all pants were low-rise, and I’ve never related to another human being less.

Every time I go to the Boston airport, it just seems so unsafe. Like… where’s the giant blue Kaiju that protects your airport? How am I supposed to feel safe traveling without a giant blue demon that killed his creator watching over me?

Happy howlidays from Pawficer Eva, Sher-ruff of Denver and her deputies!

Meticulously photoshopped image from A Christmas Story of Ralphie shooting his BB gun out a window. My dog's head - complete with one cloudy, blind eye, is superimposed over Ralphie's. My orange cat Tanji is making a face in the next window over and saying, "You'll shoot your eye out, kid!" My fiancee's calico cat Ruby is below him, looking concerned over one shoulder. I'm in a Santa hat with my fiancee over my shoulder. We're looking out the window and cheesing big. Over the gun it says "A (merry) Christmas Story".

If I were a billionaire forced by circumstance to live in New York, I would also go insane and attempt to raise some monsters from the dead in hopes that one of them would fuck me. I think it would be the only reasonable thing to do. Xanatos was right, actually.

For a little while, I was so excited about getting to see my news dad, Steven Colbert, that I forgot how much NYC absolutely sucks. (Sorry New York friends… sorry you have to live here.) (I’m actually not even there yet, I just remembered.)

I love that, if you try to use this oven feature outside of the Jewish holidays, it will just kill you.

Oven instruction manual text: “You can use the Sabbath feature with baking only. The oven temperature may be set higher or lower after you set the Sabbath feature. (The oven temperature adjustment feature should be used only during Jewish holidays.)”

Hey bsky peeps, how's it going? I keep forgetting to post around here... Anyway I've been watching Kuuga, and I think it was a really bold choice to have Godai and Ichijou have sex on screen before we even hit the midway point of the season, but good for them.

And that's the way the cookie crumbled. #kamenrider #kamenridergavv #fanart

Hanto Karakida from Kamen Rider Gavv standing triumphantly atop a defeated Kamen Rider Bake, energetically waving a giant pride flag while screaming and crying, sparkles shining all around. Souma stands in the background with his hands clasped, looking pleased.

A comic featuring Shoma and Hanto from Kamen Rider Gavv. They sit shoulder to shoulder, each holding a chocolate frappe. Hanto looks at his, face bruised and hair hanging limply across his eyes. He says "I hate to seem ungrateful but... i'm not really a sweets guy." Shouma says in a quiet voice: "Hanto... we're both made out of candy..."
Hanto leans forward, head between his knees in the second panel. He lets out one comically loud sob as Shouma pats his back, frowning.

A comic of Kamen Rider Valen labled "Meanwhile... At Suga's boy tank..." He is drawn standing in front of Suga's tank of clones, his back turned to camera. In the second panel he grimaces, and holds up a lit lighter and a can of hairspray, preparing to burn it down.

When I start writing for the next star trek series, I'm going to re-retcon the Breen with the take that their entire species are kamen riders. This is my one and only campaign promise.

So, life updates for anyone I haven't talked to for a while: I've been unemployed since new years and for some reason the job market is really bad right now for unforeseen reasons. But also there was a canon love confession between the boys on Kamen Rider Gavv, so I guess it's not all bad.

Given the very specific circumstances, I'd either check to see if I'm on drugs or if the baby is on drugs and if the latter find out where I could get some because clearly those are some gooooood drugs.

A supposed Quora question: "Atheists, imagine you're going skydiving with a Christian baby. Suddenly the baby tells you he won't open his parachute until you renounced atheism and accept Jesus as your lord and savior. What would you do?"

I rewatched X-men First Class last night to refresh myself on Magneto because I’ll be playing him in a ttrpg this weekend. And it made me so psyched for it, remembering that I’m playing the Most Objectively Right character in comic history.

My take on Kabuto currently is that it was a brave choice to make the main character less a rider so much as a ridersexual.
