Wait, no. I work with a "Joesph." I thought it was a typo at first, but it's real. Now I gotta tell him the internet said he doesn't exist.

Loved this issue. I feel like "It took all of human history to make a world like that: A world where people got better. Less than a year to lose it." is gonna keep hitting stronger and stronger over the next, oh, year or so.

What's it called when an MLB insider climbs a mountain? That's Passan Hiker.

Used to hear this on a daily basis driving MJ to daycare. It was the first thing I thought of when I heard the news, and it seems appropriate. "To make a rainbow, you must have rain/Must have sunshine, joy and pain"

The shoes line was good, but the line that made me crack up was over in X-Men United, "We have to fight a giant foot?" Delightful Deathdream Double Dose this week.

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

when you breakdown that venezuela players were sitting with buckets on their heads and team usa players were watching videos of us bombing another country to find inspiration for playing a game they all get paid millions of dollars to play, it was kind of obvious who was going to win.

I can remember a time when the World Series, a Springsteen album and a Springsteen biopic all happening on the same day would have been celebrated like the Fourth of July, Pt. II. #dadsky

If a government only serves the interests of 10% of the population, it's not so much a "government" as it is an "occupying force."

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny": Listen for dangerous words.

Text card: Listen for dangerous words.
Be alert to the use of the words extremism and terrorism. Be alive to the fatal notions of emergency and exception. Be angry about the treacherous use of patriotic vocabulary.

If you grab a 3-month Xbox Game Pass card now at the old price, then cancel the recurring billing, your subscription will end in January - right after the holidays - which is when you were gonna be making resolutions anyway. Set yourself up for success. #cancel #xbox #gamepass

I was literally just talking to my therapist a couple of hours ago about how important X-Men were to my moral development, and why I've made a point to introduce my kid to the same principles.

I like how @davidmarquez.bsky.social put the speaker out-of-panel here to let you know that's @gailsimone.bsky.social 's voice, not the mayor's.

Comic panel depicting Wolverine, Gambit and Rogue reacting to a segmented dialogue balloon that points to the right edge of the panel, indicating that the speaker is off-screen. Dialogue as follows:

1. "We didn't forget you two! Gambit, Ms. Rogue--Through the roof with heterosexual women. Off the charts!"

2. "All groups, really!"

3. "And Ms. Rogue--I mean, I'm sure you know."

4. ROGUE: "Horny dudes?"

5. "Women too. Horny women!"

Hey, Matt. New fan here. Been loving We're Taking Everyone Down With Us. (Am also an old Against Me! fan.) Can you fill me in on what's up with the Farthest Place From Here 7"s? Do I need to hunt them down individually, or will there be a compilation released with the trade?

Taking solace in baseball, beer, hot dogs and Hamilton today. It's important to keep in mind that we're more than just our shitty government.

Counterpoint as someone who wrote a book about Twitter’s influence & studied the minutia of how that influence worked—it is no longer influential! The myth that it is could be easily released if folks still attached to an *idea of what it once was* make a serious calculation about what it is now.

This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.
