The White House shitter account posted a pro-iran war propaganda video that included clips of the yugioh anime, so I figure this is a good time to remind everyone that Kazuki Takahashi was staunchly anti-war and he died a hero, unlike any american in Iran right now.

Almost every person in the public spotlight who claims to be "working class" is the child of owners of some small business that they either inherited outright or worked for briefly until receiving family money some other way.

People with dim memories think the Trump war on Iran is somehow a huge break in US foreign policy. George W. Bush invaded Afghanistan on October 7, 2001, with hardly a plan or a justification.

Did you know that Graham Platner was Ryan Grim's bartender back at the Tune Inn on Capitol Hill, a fact that Ryan Grim acknowledged on X?

Trevor von Eeden was proud of his artwork in Batman Annual #8, an issue which has NEVER been reprinted.

He used experimental grid patterns and story structure that still makes it quite a unique comic.

The colors by his then partner Lynn Varley also added to the feel of the book.

Unfortunately I Am Wrestling With Genre Again - Reactor Can you ever really draw a line between genres? And does it matter?

It is unfortunate! The response to "Are you a lumper or a splitter?" is supposed to be a shock of self-realization, not, "Tell me which one is right, and I'll be that!"

Yep. Ford represented a very specific kind of Being Cool By Being A Dipshit that used to be right at the heart of American pop-culture depictions of masculinity.

Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart both excelled at it.

This is hardly an amazing breakthrough, but get some salmon, warm a skillet while you pat the salmon dry; season the salmon with salt, pepper, oregano, put it skin up on the skillet, then four minutes later flip it over and turn down the heat. Five minutes later add olive oil and lemon and DAMN.
