I guess add me to the long list of folks who got married ... sort of. My partners Adam, Christopher, and I had a handfasting in October 2025 after 20 years together. Today is our first anniversary! Still not legal, but since when has that ever stopped us...? Glad to have you back, Saladin!

In this month's #StarTrekAdventures #TTRPG episode, the USS Wayfarer came to the aid of the inhabitants of Fosstaria II by curing their "outlander virus" pandemic and making contact with their first new civilization in the Shackleton Expanse.

In Quasar 17, Gruenwald even got to do a direct comparison in a “cosmic marathon” where speedsters like Quicksilver and the Whizzer lost out to Makkari the Eternal, himself upstaged by a mysterious blond man in the remains of a crimson costume…

Epoch, the so-called "Lord of Time" in the DCU is also very Kang-adjacent and a JLA foe. I don't know if he's been seen since the JLA/Wildcards crossover, which was the last time I saw him in a comic.

@davidgallaher.bsky.social saw this Marvel house ad from an Iron Man letter column in 1985 online and immediately thought of #Project712. Speculation is it was drawn by Byrne when he was still attached to the project, before he left Marvel for DC.

This weekend's #StarTrekAdventures TTRPG episode for the USS Wayfarer is certain not to be any sort of diplomatic incident at all. No doubt, the crew will have it handled.

Actually, the notion that the inherent worth and liberty of each person is dependent upon a god or divine being is the problem, because theocrats can proclaim or reinterpret said god's commandments and suddenly liberty and worth aren't so inherent any more. THAT is "control of the herd."
US House Speaker Mike Johnson at the Family leadership summit:

"You see, Marxism, communism, and socialism begin with the premise that there is no God. And there's a whole different set of implications that follow that.

Because if there is no God, then the idea that every person has inherent dignity and value no longer applies. You don't have individual liberty or inherent worth. You're just another social animal, part of the herd.

And what happens to the herd? They have to be directed, controlled, and corralled.

They may provide them a little bit, give them some free stuff, but they're certainly going to take away their freedom.

Ultimately, it leads to death."

The 10th anniversary of this tweet, where DJT congratulates himself on "being right" about a massacre that killed 49 people at the Pulse Nightclub. Trump's later remarks focused on "radical Islamic terrorism," victim blaming, and lying about how he would be a "protector" of the LGBT community.
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump on Twitter:

Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don't want congrats, want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!
