My solution to today’s Sunday Classic #KnotWords puzzle. New personal best of 3 minutes flat, but this seemed like a really easy puzzle, almost like cheating. I’ve been playing KnotWords for over 4 years, BTW. My average time for the Sunday Classic is over 12 minutes.

One of these things is not like the others.

My collection of DC Archives: Legion of Super-Heroes hardcovers, where volume 6 of the 13 volumes has wildly misaligned text on the spine compared to the others.

I LOLed when I saw this in the MLB app:

Without stating your age post your favorite film released the year you turned 18. This is a fine film but not a favorite of mine. Maybe Costner’s second-best performance behind Silverado. Somehow I’ve never seen Good Morning Vietnam.

Movie poster for The Untouchables. Kevin Costner as Eliot Ness holds up his badge, while his team stands behind him.

Okay, this is the best take for Patriots haters. Because it means you also get to dunk on the Jets, which is a national pastime.

Tony Vegas on Twitter: “If Sam Darnold prevents the Patriots from winning a Super Bowl, I’d argue he was worth the #3 pick in 2018 for the Jets.”

I think I bought - or at least read when they came out - both of these comics, cover dated September 1976. I’d been reading comics for about a year at this point.

The liberal dinosaur on the left should dump the conservative dinosaur on the right. (You can tell the one on the left is the liberal because they’re displaying empathy.) (today’s Mallard Fillmore)

Mallard Fillmore for May 15 2024

A single panel strip titled “Liberals The Early Years…”

Two sauropod dinosaurs walk side-by-side.

The one on the left says “Maybe we should go and visit Brenda. You know her daughter was eaten by a T-Rex.”

The one on the right replies, “Oh no… we should check on that T-Rex and make sure he doesn’t have a tummy-ache.”

Looks like it is just about time to leave Facebook and Instagram. Fb is hard since I have many friends there who just aren't online elsewhere, but...

Post by CNN with a link to an article with the description: Meta quietly updated its hateful conduct policy to allow users to refer to "women as household objects or property" among other offensive language.

My experience is that people do not refuse to engage in legitimate *conversation*, but they do refuse to engage with click-farming, trolls, and of course the many Nazis running around on social media these days. People have learned the rhetoric of these asshats and no longer tolerate them.

Post by barbie's cuter sister @but1stcoffee.bsky.social on Dec 23, 2024 at 12:58 pm: The way people simply refuse to engage in any kind of conversation on this app is interesting. Like sure, go ahead, block everybody who disagrees with you, whatever, but like... do you learn anything from that? What's the point?

Dave Ross illustrated my single favorite Star Trek comic ever (well, maybe Year Five at IDW has surpassed it - only took a generation). I did not know he worked on WCA.

Cover to Star Trek Annual #1 (DC, 1985), about Kirk’s first adventure as captain of the Enterprise.

Hahahahahahaha! I will stop listening to music altogether before I buy LPs again. Hated the medium then, hate it now. Cumbersome, awkward, fragile.

M Dv-us ‪@drdvus.bsky.social‬

If anybody wants to know why Gen X is always mad, it's because we had to replace our record collections with a tape collection that we had to replace with a CD collection that we had to replace with an MP3 collection, and now we need a subscription to
listen to music.

This, except the last thing is "that we had to replace with a record collection"

I’m always curious what people mean when they say “the left” in contexts like this. I usually assume they mean “the Democrats”, who are a center-right party with a small but vocal left wing. The American left isn’t really in a position to frame anything as anything effectively.

‪Walker Bragman‬ ‪@walkerbragman.bsky.social‬

Here’s where we stand:

Not only did we make NONE of the changes we needed to in response to COVID—clean indoor air, national healthcare, universal paid leave—but anti-vax is now the MAINSTREAM position of the political right.

And the left has totally FAILED to frame public health as a labor issue
