And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 06/10/2026Mad House, that three issue blip where they renamed a humour comic & made it a horror comic? Sure. 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 06/10/2026Chilling Adventures in Sorcery, which it was renamed to for 3 issues? Of course. 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 06/10/2026Chilling Adventures in Sorcery As Told By Sabrina, which the series began as? (And were the only two issues Morrow wasn't involved with.) Yep. 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 06/10/2026For spooky season, posting my favourite cover from Archie's short-lived foray into horror comics in the '70s: Red Circle Sorcery #6, April 1974. Art by Gray Morrow, who both edited & provided all the cover art for the line 000
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 05/10/2026"No political overtones at all, I am not a political person. It is a Negro spiritual, you know, it is folklore. We just got together and did a jam session and it was just a song that Stranger Cale led. Sometimes you do a thing like that." 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 05/10/2026Love when I manage to find a vintage Stranger Cole recording I didn't previously own. 120
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 04/10/2026When I say that the Carbon Majors list has done more harm than good to the understanding of climate change, this is what I mean. Grist is a climate focused media outlet. And in a mere two sentences the author makes clear he has no understanding of what the list is measuring. 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 03/10/2026#RandomGameSaturday Super Tetris 2 + Bombliss Gentei Ban Did you know the Super Famicom got 5 Tetris games? Two of which were called Super Tetris 2. "Gentei Ban" means limited edition & it changes the puzzles compared to the other Super Tetris 2. It's also not really any rarer than the original. 2110
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 02/10/2026The posters kind of overplayed it a bit, admittedly 1121
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 01/10/2026Oh. The city silently updated the webpage for it over the summer. At the end of May it still said "late 2026." And now? Well, what's the only thing more Toronto than running past your promised completion date? Refusing to give one, of course. 130
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 01/10/2026But a fenced off public space with both a no trespassing sign AND the ubiquitous no winter maintenance sign on it? Now that's Toronto in a nutshell 120
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 29/09/2026This isn't subtext or hyperbole. Bruce Wayne will literally look at the reader & say it. 2294
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 29/09/2026Ben, I just want to say one word to you. Just one word. Gunpla. 041
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 28/09/2026Next you're going to tell me that the Wheel is mostly a four thousand dollar gimmick (Side note: I love the poorly photoshopped cat in this official product photo.) 000
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 28/09/2026Sony's PS-Q7 is one of those things where I get what the point was and I absolutely love that they had the hubris to go through with it But also every time I look at it I wince, because there are just so many ways it can go wrong 120
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 28/09/2026Put on Somethin' Else while cooking and man, I had forgotten how absolutely stacked the line-up Cannonball Adderley assembled for this record was 260
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 27/09/2026Not to rain on your parade, but it's 6th worst. (What the hell are you doing down there, Kansas City? You're not a West division team.) 220
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 27/09/2026Also: while I was looking up the exact exchange, I discovered DuckDuckGo watched a completely different movie from the rest of us. 171
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 27/09/2026"Honey, I don't mean to alarm you but the stuff you're buying for decor is getting a bit... nautical" 110
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 26/09/2026And speaking of portable experiences: the GBA release is notable as not merely the first Sega game on a Nintendo console since the days of the NES/Famicom, but the first one published by Sega themselves. It also contains a trick Sega used on some Game Gear games, though to slightly less effect 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 26/09/2026#RandomGameSaturday ChuChu Rocket! It's always weird to remember that no, this game was designed for the Dreamcast — a showcase for its processing & networking capabilities — and was exclusive to it until the console was discont inued. Because the single player experience is such a portable one. 1154
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 25/09/2026Tsk. How soon we forget her very first appearance. Which is probably the origin of this story: somebody realizing, just as Peter is going to be moving out, that he's never appeared in the more than a decade Peter's been living there 010
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 24/09/2026Sure. Why not. (Are these the actual games? I dunno. It's what came to mind when I tried to spread them out across an extended period instead of clustering in one era.) 240
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 23/09/2026One of the greatest duet albums or the greatest duet album? 120
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 21/09/2026Oof. But I suppose this makes sense given 33% of Conservatives currently think that Carney is currently unbeatable. 200
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 19/09/2026#RandomGameSaturday Gates of Zendocon The Lynx is not a system known for its shooters. I'm not sure what genre it *is* known for, but not shooters. There have been a few decent unlicensed ones produced since the system's demise, but if you're sticking to original releases? Zendocon's 50% of them 0111
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 18/09/2026It's even better with the "readers added context" box linking to previous tweets of his about beef prices 030
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 18/09/2026Brad²'s one weird trick is "more police." The problem is police corruption? Doesn't matter: more police. 000
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 17/09/2026Yes, server time costs money. This is really no different than Apple's current policy of requiring a subscription if you want to store more than a certain number of photos on the cloud. 0160
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 15/09/2026Show yourself, person who listed this. I know you have a BlueSky account. 000
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 12/09/2026This cartridge has the infamous Position A/B switch on the back. Contrary to what much of the web — including wikipedia until just a few minutes ago — will tell you, it has nothing to do with NTSC vs PAL compatibility. Codemasters did all their 50Hz vs 60Hz detection in code. 100
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 12/09/2026#RandomGameSaturday Micro Machines If you exclude Tengen from the ranking, and there's an argument either way, Codemasters were by far the best of the unlicensed NES publishers. Micro Machines launched a series. It got licensed remakes on the Genesis & SNES. And it's a pretty fun racing game too. 170
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 12/09/2026Finally got the replacement dampers for the turntable's suspension system and I think the originals may have been a little dry rotted 011
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 07/09/2026These ones? (An edited version with a pride rainbow overlaid on the spikes also sometimes gets passed around.) 3442
And, boo! 👻 @g026r.leftblank.org · 05/09/2026#RandomGameSaturday Super Paper Mario OK. A confession: I've never played this. I don't even own a Wii. I found it for $5 at a garage sale a few years ago & since I had enjoyed the first two, I picked it up. I've just never gotten around to getting a console since then. 2101
