Super rare sign for the McDonald's Monster Mac! This four-patty behemoth was test-marketed back in 1993, when burgers this big were still pretty unheard of. It was specifically pitched as a Halloween promotion, too! 🎃

Things got lit at Jo-Ann Fabrics during the 1992 Halloween season. You could sew costumes from Batman Returns, Toxic Crusaders, *and* The Addams Family!

Hit #tbcc #TampaBayComicCon on Sunday – had a really good time. I was #RylandGrace, and Rocky was Rocky. Met a lot of #projecthailmary #phm fans, and chatted with a few special guests. Attached is the only pic I have of me (on the left) with another Grace and _their_ homemade Rocky

So you've got a fishpond, & you love eels. Should you put eels in your fishpond? The Fleta, a 13th C. book on English common law, says NO. They'll eat the other fish, then eat each other. Then the remaining ones will just leave overland for a better home. Don't do it, friends. 🗃️🧪
Meme. Medieval drawing of a fish, looking rather worried. You are looking at in in profile, so you can only see one eye. But it is open wide with concern. The fish's mouth is turned down in a fearful frown, and it radiates an "Oh shit!" vibe. The fish has something a cute little nose, and some lovely scales, but it doesn't care at about that right now. Vanity takes second place to existential threats. The fish feels like he should be named Clem. And Clem is full of shock and despair just now.

To get a sense for his expression, imagine a mid-teenager accidentally walking in on their parents having sex. And not, like, plain ol' vanilla sex. Something wildly, inappropriately, off-the-charts kinky. Devices and lotions and spare batteries are strewn about. The sheets are rubber, and the neighbors are in the corner filming. There are tins of Spam. Now...pan the camera back to the teenager. That look...that expression? That's Clem right now.

Meme text reads:
"TFW
They put eels in your pond"
