An average idiot trying to be a little better every day. I'm still trying to figure out why @temnurus.bsky.social has put up with me for so many years, but I'm happy he has.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Just 6 days left to secure a copy (or 2 or more) of the Veronica Mars book! Also there's some dope stickers and hand-made bookmarks in the add-ons that you should get when you make your pledge.

For most of 2026, I've been working to secure a contract to write a comprehensive book about TV's Veronica Mars. I've come close, but publishers fear there just aren't enough Marshmallows left who would be interested. Let's prove 'em wrong! Join me & please share: www.kickstarter.com/projects/wat...

Every year the Horde patch blows me away and I don't think it can get better...and every year I am wrong. Even though I snagged the Doom print 2 wks ago and the Ghost Rider print last week I had to cop this today. Khan, respectfully, you are a menace to my wallet...and it's money well spent.

Stopped by yesterday to check out day 1 at @possumpunks.bsky.social's new shop and was blown away. If you're near Ferndale, MI check them out for any games, comics, or books you're looking for. They even found the perfect spot for these 2 stickers (from @yungkhan.bsky.social) that I gave them.

On the right is Terry from Fatal Fury but if he was a meathead. His hat reads "Faygo Fury"

Born and raised in Charleston, SC. Going to the beach sucks. The traffic makes it take forever to get there. The humidity makes the heat unbearable. Salt water makes you sticky and sand gets everywhere. I have never understood the attraction.

This made me curious, so I did a little research. First, I was wrong & this picture is from 1985 not the 70s. Second, the Kroft's didn't design them, but they won an infringement lawsuit against McDonald's because of the blatant similarities. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_%26....

There's something about the 70s era Grimace that is horrifying in a way that other versions are not.

"All you had to do was pay us enough to live..."
A screenshot of a post by Mark Provost about the Kimberly-Clark distribution warehouse fire.

Text reads - A California distribution warehouse for the consumer products giant Kimberly-Clark burned to the ground on Tuesday and an employee has been taken into custody under suspicion of arson. The 6 alarm fire required 175 firefighters to contain.

A video circulating online, purportedly taken by the aggrieved worker, shows them setting fire to several pallets of toilet paper while calmly repeating, "All you had to do was pay us enough to live."

"All you had to do was pay us enough to live..."

"All you had to do was pay us enough to live..."

Below that is a picture of the building on fire, with smoke billowing into the sky.

Can we also add a GI JOE style PSA to give common sense tips to the general public? "Hi kids, it's not a good idea to throw water onto a grease fire. If it's small, use baking soda or a fire blanket to smother it. If not, leave the house and call 911." "Thanks Duke!" "Knowing is half the battle!"

Trump’s post continued, focused less on the policy details and more on a direct rebuke of the judiciary: “This completely inept and embarrassing Court was not what the Supreme Court of the United States was set up by our wonderful Founders to be… They are hurting our Country, and will continue to do so.”
