It was supposed to be killer robots with plasma rifles… That being said, the idea of John Connor bringing down SkyNet by destroying data centres does kind of tickle me.

The only reason I know that’s not @robertmackenzie.bsky.social’s wife’s TikTok account is because that’s not their kid, but she was my prime suspect :P Anyway, account is @smcropley on TikTok for those that are interested.

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

This is so dumb. This is “invented a new kind of stupid” kind of stupid. It got four Emmys. It beat Taylor Swift. The audience was massive. Sabrina Caroenter is now halfway to EGOT status because of it. And they can’t get their shit together to make another 8-10 episodes for a year’s season??

So #Lanterns is exactly what it said on the tin; ‘Green Lantern’ by way of ‘True Detective’. So we’ve got a couple of antagonistic cops investigating a weird crime in the middle of nowhere with a sinister small town hierarchy and a plot taking place over multiple time periods.

Somewhere out in the multiverse, there’s a reality with a version of ‘Hudson Hawk’ that stars Audrey Hepburn as the villain. I gotta get to that reality.

I am very proud of our time travel audio comedy #NightTerrace. I think it’s very good and funny, and you can get it here: nightterrace.com I don’t plug it often because we’ve been struggling to finish a third season for many years. But I’d love more folks to enjoy the first two seasons.

Sitting in a cafe drinking too much coffee and reading a psych report for a sentence this afternoon as Alice Cooper’s ‘Poison’ plays in the background. A strange moment.

This on the day I find out that Jesse Eisenberg refuses to reprise his role as Mark Zuckerberg in a film as he finds the man, his politics and his actions reprehensible. I find that hilarious as Eisenberg has played Lex Luthor. Comic book villains are less monstrous than real world billionaires.

I feel like parts of my brain are waking up after a long slumber. Being on the other side of the bar table is flexing muscles I feel like I haven’t used in a long time. Feels kind of amazing.

And with this I bid you adieu.
Riley Gaines and Libs of TikTok are complaining about medical bills. David French says adopting a Black child opened his eyes to systemic racism. Laid-off TPUSA employees say workers need stronger protections.

Conservatism is the rejection of empathy for others. Once an issue affects them personally, they adopt the progressive position.

It’s cliched, but my drive home ritual includes about an hour phone conversation with my dad to catch up for the week. This week he mentioned a mining company ad that stated they had paid $79 billion in taxes in Australia.

Just heard about this. Ridiculous. If the government brought in proper tax reform, updated Medicare and went after the high end of town these issues would be eased significantly.

Stumbled across ‘Life on Mars’ on one of the streaming services. Love this, but haven’t seen it in years. Given it’s overt ties to ‘Doctor Who’, I’m amazed it wasn’t more of a big deal that Sam Tyler’s girlfriend Luke go on to be The Rani :P

For International Trans Day of Visibility, I'll say this: a trans person has improved your life. Wrote a song you love. Developed your medication. Made a ladder that didn't collapse under you. Stopped a fire at your neighbours. Made those cookies you like. Maybe you didn't know. And yet. See it.

A big screen adaptation of ‘Dune Messiah’. I never thought I’d see the day. I like the theory that Chalamet is having a public crashout so that people will realise Paul is actually the *villain* 😛
