Today’s travel buddy: Super7 Reaction Merman, released in blind boxes in 2019. Picked up at the Stormville Airport Flea Market earlier this month. No sword, sadly.

one thing that will stick in my mind forever is I was hanging out in @theadultnerd.com's dorm suite and he went to take a dump and when he came out of the bathroom he announced to the several of us sitting in the common room "homeland security has just issued an orange alert for the bathroom"

Picked up a DC Super Powers collection along with a custom Cheetah and some Toy Biz and Mattel for a lil flavor. Am I slightly obsessed with mail away exclusives? Yes I am and I love that Clark Kent.

I don’t have a fully formed opinion about Hank Green’s usage of AI, but I will say that his framing of somehow being both dopamine addicted to interacting with it and also how he feels a need to create content is very “men will do anything except go to therapy” coded.

Pickups from Collector’s Universe. My first peach-cheeked, half boot Skeletor! The Los Amos Trap Jaw, my first MOTU Staction, a complete green belt Merman, I think my first 200X figure, and CHECK OUT THAT TURTLE LOT! #tmnt #actionfigures #motu

Once again, I love the Decoder podcast with @reckless.bsky.social, which kicks off with an ad for AI automation for the episode titled “THE PEOPLE DO NOT YEARN FOR AUTOMATION.” Editorial and business boundaries? Never change! overcast.fm/+AAQLdsvhpws

When I go to NYCC, I like to see if I can hold a copy of Amazing Fantasy 15 in my hands (in a case, I’m not insane). Seeing a Laser Power He-Man at a toy show evoked the same thing from me.

I get kinda excited when I find a nice Masters of the Universe figure that needs a leg band replacement. I’ve been saving up a bunch of em, and this Mosquitor that I found over the weekend at a flea market gets added to the list. He can kinda stand on his own, but would benefit from being fixed up.

You know how we’ve been tricked into focusing on individual responsibility to save the environment instead of forcing institutional change to curb the worst offenders? We’re repeating that blame spiral when it comes to AI use. Hooray.

Review: JoyToy Continues Slash and Tokka’s Eternal Connection
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Slash and Tokka never directly interacted in any piece of TMNT media as far as I can recall, and yet they've always had a deep connection. JoyToy continues the tradition that was started by Playmates and continued by NECA.
