Yep, I’m grabbing that set.

If you want a nice gooey grilled cheese, American or some kind of emulsified cheddar. That way you get a proper melt on the cheese.

I talked about grilled cheese tonight with @toygalaxy and @kate_in_chat on the Secret Galaxy Unannoucned Livestream, so I decided that’s what was for dinner. We talked about butter vs mayo, and I wanted to try… both. On sourdough. Pretty good, but I prefer just butter.

I loved this figure from the moment I saw it. Then I got to handle it at SDCC and realized that it might be my figure of the year. Such a huge upgrade from the old Commando figure based on the Bad Batch Hunter body. I need every redeco of this they can make. #StarWarsBlackSeries #RepublicCommando

Are we in El Cajon or Missouri?? It looked good, it sounded good. The vibe inside was pumping with that classic musica norteña. The burrito was… well listen. It’s the one of the best I’ve had outside of SoCal. But still doesn’t hold up to even the worst I’ve had there. But it did scratch the itch.

We went to St Louis City… and then we got high. We found the largest NcDonalds… and then we got high.

No, not even close. I know how crazy WA is. But for the record, I do recycle, when I empty the bin I pull the cans out.

I didn’t recycle then either.

Well I wasn’t expecting this. This just became the most expensive Black Series stream of all time. #StarWarsBlackSeries #StarWarsANewHope

Already tossed this old garbage away. I can’t wait to get those new replacements. Great job to the Black Series team. #StarWarsBlackSeries

Apocalypse arrived today. Just like everyone else, I wasn’t expecting this until December. I didn’t know if I really wanted it. But thankfully, I love it. It’s so much fun to just mess around with. Definitely happy to have him on my shelf. Where ever that may be. #MarvelLegends #Xmen97 #Apocalypse

I miss Carl’s Jr so much. I need a Western Bacon Cheese back in my life.

The Dungeon Crawler Carl fandom has hit the point where it’s just cringey. And it makes me sad.

I got REALLY into doing Toy Hax on my bots, but now most of them look awful and I regret it.

I was actually super excited to find these Pop-Tarts ice cream sandwiches today. Wow, what a disappointment. On top of looking nothing like they did on the box, it tasted absolutely terrible. Do not buy these. Absolutely disgusting. I wish I didnt have taste buds. Yech.

Boring is the worst thing a movie/show can be. I’d rather watch bad than boring.

Is it possible for an episode of Star Trek to be so stupid it’s great?

The best part of my weekend was that my wife Lily got to come with me. She made the 9-10 hour car trip each way fun. She showed up to my panels and distracted me with flirty text messages. And we got to go to the Atlanta Aquarium together and see the Whale Shark! I love you!

Day 3 #Dragoncon photo dump! What an absolute whirlwind if a day. I did two panels and met some incredible people! AMA.

I say this as a long time San Diego native who has been to SDCC more than a few times. Dragon Con is better. It just is.

Photo dump from day 2 #dragoncon. Not pictured, my making a fool of myself with Matt Dinniman (posted yesterday) and me riding an elevator for Shawn and Aaron Ashmore (too busy trying to play it cool). But the Gonzaroo concert was a blast being on stage with some great people!

It could be either I guess. Maybe that’s now it’s been the entire time.

On my way to the Gonzaroo concert tonight at #Dragoncon I got into an elevator with Shawn and Aaron Ashmore. Then i got to go on stage with Jonathan Coulton and Paul and Storm. Now I don’t know what to do with the rest of my life.

Traditional #dragoncon photo dump. I did something. I saw some things. I paneled some things.

Me with @mattdinniman.bsky.social at #dragoncon who is being very gracious while I tell him there’s too many Carl cosplayers and immediately wishing I hadn’t because now I feel like a jerk. I do like DCC, Matt. I like it a lot. I’m sorry.

Also, if I were an inbox collector I’d be pissed. A nice box opener gouge on the top of the box, and a bent bowcaster in the box sort of ruins the premium packaging if that’s how I wanted to display it. Thankfully, it is not. But it’s still dumb.

Mike Kaess @mikekaess.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
The “new” Embo is here and I have some mixed feelings. It’s hard to ignore that it now comes with twice the price, premium packaging, soft goods, and Keibu. I just wanted the dumb dog, and I’m just the kind of dummy to buy it again. And that’s all the justification I needed.

It’s really cool to have Primes on the shelf. I’m not getting the Star Optimus because he’s too big for my shelf. I may just put one of my many Optimuses on the shelf as a stand in. I’m also still on the fence about getting the Sentinel Prime that’s coming out soon since he’s not one of the 13.
