Your criticism is fair, I've been enjoying that Gunn is weaving politics into his DC work even if now as CEO he's trying to hold back to not have it blow up in his face. The monkeys in Superman, the MRA soldiers in Creature Commandos, even GI Robot show he knows what he's doing even if he denies it.

It's kind of weird to not include Suicide Squad, in which a character lectures characters on America's interference in foreign countries. That's his most superhero political movie, and it's is telling that it's the one where he's not CEO and clearly tying his hands back a bit more.

Me, having bought a 3rd party lens as a starter for my M: damn, not beating the "lived in Portland for 5 years allegations"

Scan of a typed letter from 1970, from Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, addressed to "Joel Lipton, 622 N. Foothill Road, Beverly Hills, Calif. 90210" It reads: "Dear Joel: I think it is more difficult these days to define what makes a good citizen than it has ever been before. Certainly all any of us can do is follow our own conscience and retain faith in our democracy. Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call "American Virtues" who lack this faith in our country. I believe that our greatest strength lies always in the protection of our smallest minorities. Sincerely yours, Charles M. Schulz" At bottom is an illustration of Charlie Brown and Snoopy, a kite wrapped around the dog house.

Written 55 years ago, Schulz's heartfelt clarity cuts through the noise, even today.

I know these sites are somehow important to politicians, reporters, and pundits, but i'm really glad that saying this is happening will not register with most people

Weird how this keeps happening.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

cancelling Disney+ and Hulu is well and good but it’s not a huge hit on an individual level

but Disney adults? people who spend real money at the parks? you guys can make a dent, call ‘em up and tell them your vacation is postponed until they pull their heads out of their asses

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Not exactly the same thing, but this is why Dropout rocks.

They are going to happen, what's you should be more worried about is Schumer staying in charge of Senate Dems.

Are you annoyed at all by the relatively open Dem/Independent field? Obviously there's still a lot of time for people to actually announce, but what's the point of an open primary/RCV if we don't get more options and visions? Other than "fighting," ofc

Identical Buzz Lightyear toys sit in the toystore, much like the identical republican candidates for Alaskan governor

Noooo that can't be right, it makes Todd Tregor really stand out

Ah but you see Pat, he says he's different because he can fight

The video on his website is so generic it's ...comical? No idea what this guy believes in other than "Kamala Harris scary, oil good"

update: male loneliness epidemic solved

It sounds like a disease you get from being too online tbh

Words like this are a sure sign that you are too online, please talk to a doctor before using "Blueskyism"

KCAW in Sitka has one similar.

Here - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 A much younger and smaller August is outside and staring up at the night sky. He is overwhelmed with a strong feeling existence. He might just be a small part of the world but he exists. He has a thought. "I'm here." Panel 2 August is now a teenager and is once again looking up to the night sky. He's at a point in his life where he feels stuck. He's overwhelmed with a lot of negative feelings. He continues to exist. He thinks "I'm still here." Panel 3 August is an adult now. He's now stands under the stars while holding his infant son, Gustopher. He looks up and contemplates all that's been happening in his life. He wonders how he's going to keep going. He wonders how he's going to make things work. Within all of his chaotic thoughts, one sticks out. "We're here." Panel 4 August is now older. Gustopher is older too. They're enjoying the night sky together and talking about the stars. Gustopher is happy. August is happy. Life can be difficult but there's times like this that make it all worth while. "We're still here."
