Wondering if there’s something to be said about declining powers and the primacy of perception over facts, I dunno.

For some reason all I see is Chris Parnell in a platinum wig.

I would only ever see this at family parties, and every time it was a religious experience.

An image of a generic "Cream Soda" can from Jewel (a Chicago area grocery store) as they were designed in the 1980s. It is light blue, with darker blue accents. It is beautiful.

I’ve been trying to think what this was reminding me of, and while I don’t think it was actually T Bird getting popped in the Crow, obviously I gotta go with the Crow.

T-Bird (played by David Patrick Kelly, best known as the guy clanging the bottles together in “The Warriors”) getting taped into the driver’s seat of his car before Eric drives it off a pier and blows it up in “The Crow”. One of the coolest shots in 90s cinema follows, but I don’t have the gif of that.

I realize I've turned Brooks Lee into this guy from the Good Place:

Benjamin Koldyke as Brent Norwalk in "The Good Place" wearing a blue, puffy sleeveless zip-up with his own name on the breast, over a long sleeved t-shirt. He looks kind of douchey (because the character is), but I like to imagine the actor is a nice enough guy, but I haven't heard anything.

I was so busy dwelling on “you’ll receive the Order of Lenin for this” that I completely forgot about “HAS ANYBODY SEEN MY TAM-BOUR-IINNNE?” Which also skips over him having a psychotic break and laughing maniacally as he emptied a Tommy gun in “The Shadow” Guy was never ONCE too big for a role

“You’ll receive the Order of Lenin for this.”

“You got that picture of the Lord of Darkness for the cover art for the movie’s soundtrack?” “Sure thing. Real fucking sexy, just like you asked.” (The synth stylings of Tangerine Dream start playing in the background)

Promo art for the 1985 movie “Legend” with Tim Curry dressed up as the lord of darkness (all red, fake hooves for feet, fucking giant-ass horns) with no shirt and with one hand on what I can only describe as a saucily cocked hip and the other holding up some evil looking fantasy spear while his dark cape billows away to his right.

Counter: it is cool to listen to Asia.

A scene from the episode of The Venture Brothers where the father is introducing Dean to progressive rock. Doctor Venture is blowing dust of a vinyl record, and holding an album jacket that may or may not be an actual album by an actual band, but certainly *looks* like the sort of album cover a prog rock band would have in the 70s.

Well, he was always a fave when I played Tekken, but I don’t know what he expected this guy to do.

The only nixonmaxxing any of us should accept. I fucking dare them to follow through.

Richard Nixon smirking and looking positively coy sipping a drink through a straw out of some sort … I want to say it’s a goblet of some kind?

Richard Nixon looking downright stolid as he humorously sips from a coconut.

It’s shit like this that makes me think maybe Jeff bezoar is right and we should put all our industry in space. Or the forest tires, at least.

And another one (regrettably with no attribution because I got it off Twitter years ago but it might be an @bransonreese.bsky.social original, though maybe not)

What looks like the cover to a rap album featuring a cartoon bear or mouse wearing a hoodie, some gold chains and a pair of sunglasses in front of a roiling storm cloud with lightning bolts coming out of it, under the label, “Dr. Poop: It’s Getting Bad.”

I feel like this is the underlying position of a lot of people from the UK regarding ac use, but it’s also pretty clearly the position of a lot of Midwesterners I know.

Jason Lee as a devil in the movie “Dogma” adjusting the thermostat to turn on the air conditioning, with his lines from this scene in text on the left side of the image:

“No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater than central air.”

Rona, looking at Mr. Household’s head mounted on a foot like something out of House of 1,000 Corpses:

Rona from the Swan Boy comic, against a black background, with two speech bubbles saying, “Do you think that matters? You think reality is a circle of salt around my brain keeping witches out?”

Took me a minute to realize this guy was doing my favorite part of singing along to that song when I was in grade school.
