Sure wish that would've rendered the whole comic, but c'est la Internet.

Pre-Gen Con anticipation, reflections on geeky reveries past, and allowing myself a bit of Gen X nerd nostalgia have led me to one incontrovertible truth: There may be no two things dreamt by the human mind more intrinsically cool than Metallica's "Creeping Death" and the Glitter Boy from 'Rifts'.

It’s a rare treat when the news alerts on my phone deliver good news rather than bad.

Yes, this is absolutely what a serious law enforcement professional visiting a foreign country for the purposes of being briefed about an infamous "cyber criminal" looks like 🙄

It’s glorious. I love these Cold War workhorses. Sadly it’s a little too heavy to permanently sit atop my monitor alongside Mr. Rædwald there 😆

You know, it's been a minute since I played 'Starfield'. I genuinely did like it. I hope they keep making DLC. 'Cause where else am I going to use a sword to knock fruit out of a container so I can steal it? Also: The plastic bag textures in this game continue to be stunning.

This is what the Iranian embassy in India posted to Twitter after the announcement of the "ceasefire" between Iran and the U.S. (1/8)

Oh, and if you think the British would be too stodgy to paint a badass dragon on the side of that ship, you’d be sorely mistaken. (2/2)

I'm not quoting this post because I'm not interested in engaging with this individual. Not because I have any particular animosity toward them, it's just a larger conversation than I have time for right now. But I do want to speak to this topic briefly (1/7)

I find it unacceptably creepy that U.S. cabinet agencies are plastering their official social media with stylized photos of President Trump, exaggerated claims of his accomplishments, and performative nationalist slogans. (1/3)

"a small group of misguided State Senators" = a majority of the Republicans in the Indiana Senate Braun's so desperate to be the next GOP governor to be Trump's pet that he's not letting this go even now, when his own party kicked his ass in the Senate today by a huge margin.

My boss just asked me to be the "arbiter of process" for something. Now I just need an excuse to say "You may test that assumption at your convenience".

Reading comments on local media's posts usually makes me sad. My fellow Hoosiers tend to be underinformed and incapable of nuance. But sometimes they express a singular truth with such eloquence that it stuns me. Behold.

Nailbomb are touring again, although sadly not in the U.S. (yet). Think I'll pick one of these up for my vest anyway, just in case.

Like. Read up on what's happening on NATO's eastern flank, and the whole time try to keep in your mind that this is the dude running the Pentagon right now.

I can't tell if this is what you're listening to tonight, or if you're just doing a very good impression of my WinAmp readout c. 2000.

By far the boldest production decision in 'Alien: Earth' that I've seen so far was taking one of the most objectively-handsome actors working today and giving him a Billy Idol hairdo. To be clear, I think it's awesome. But it's also hilarious 😆

Received a padded envelope today with a UK post mark, from a friend I haven’t seen in person in probably a decade. Inside was a piece of cardboard backing, and five small, black-and-purple pieces of paper confetti. Yep, it’s what you think it is. I’m not crying, you’re crying 😭
