begging DC to bring this one-issue silver age villain back, he is great, he's the best, he's my favorite character in the entirety of Metamorpho (1965) and that's actually a compliment because I really like the Staggs.

Reading Metamorpho (1965) and it's really amazing how Simon Stagg is just...the bad guy we all allow to just be around and part of good guy team. Like, he's evil. He's a bad guy. But narratively he is never the bad guy, he's Metamorpho's asshole nerd father in law.

This weekend I played several games of Covenantum, a computer game developing for Ars Magica under the CC license. I enjoyed it and find it really exciting that the open license is making things like this possible and easier to do. store.steampowered.com/app/4769280/...

15 years ago when Apocalypse World was new and people were beginning to understand and work with it, it was seductive to look at "acting under fire" and see, not one basic move of several, but the template underlying all the game's moves. Like @kierongillen.bsky.social 's classic gag:

i cannot even begin to describe the experience of reading silver age comics. it is transcendent. it is insane. i can't post pages of Metamorpho because I have no idea how to actually describe them in alt text here. they're beautiful. they're enraging.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time. I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

I have been reminded of the OSN FUCK DIMENSION and so must share it.

A pair of panels from the comic Millennium (1988) showing the Guardians and Zamorans going to the OAN FUCK DIMENSION

The text boxes read “The Crisis reduced the Guardians to a total of twenty-two! Herupa and I chose to discover if the state between male and female could be renewed! It could, and do twenty-two pairs of us left the universe — to DO it!”

I built an Iron Kong! He’s a big fucker and took two afternoons to finish, but he’s my favorite zoid build so far. I think he looks cooler without the giant gun, I think.

An Iron Kong modrl stands on top of a shelf on a small board. He is aiming a shoulder mounted missile launcher.

Now he has let go of the missile launcher to point at something off camera.

He’s put turn the gun do he can do finger guns and give a speech!

Now he has been jailed in a large bookshelf, trapped behind its door, but he will not give up!

just saw this paragraph in an entirely serious post about the death of satire and i am now dead as well

I hate it when this happens, especially with the genre "Satire". back in the day satire was genuinely laughable and hilarious to watch, things like Space balls or The Bee movie.

Scooter and Beaker need to swap positions here but it's otherwise accurate. (Scooter's actual character, which people forget because Muppet Babies just made him a huge nerd, is that Scooter is a useless idiot who Kermit can't get rid of because he's the nephew of the theatre's financial backer.)

It's always weird to me, like...nothing I write is, to my mind, horny. Because I don't really...do horny much? But the idea of that meaning that therefore any sign of sex existing not being "wholesome" is so foreign to me. It's...a thing that exists. Denying that being "cozy" is...weird.
