Scott Free

we’re entering St Patrick’s Day season, the magical time of the year where guys from Chicago or Boston with Polish surnames and a great-grandmother who maybe knew a guy from Limerick in the 20s lecture you on what it means to be Irish, then puke so much green beer that it turns an entire river green

Fun fact: dumb DST makes markets more volatile, because

1) traders are irritable like everyone else

2) trading hours have changed vis-a-vis European and Asian markets (ex: U.S. opening at 8:30 AM hits European screens at more liquid 12:30 instead of 13:30)

3) other dumb reasons

Just about done with Fantomex for AwesomeCon this coming weekend, and I believe I have surpassed Cowboy Spider-Man for my sweatiest cosplay

Early Jean Grey: “Oh, I hope Scott holds my hand on this date!”

Early Sue Storm: “Will Reed notice my new hairdo?”

Early Mary Jane Watson: yo what’s that hammer do, Thor

There’s a whole bit where he’s trying to calm a guy down and he’s got the Azrael-voice text bubbles, and it’s like one of my favorite things

It’s the only place that remembers him…

She’s going to give you a thoughtful but fun book about the Talking Heads that she heard about on NPR.

He’s going to give you a knife that he picked up in Spain (and a muttered apology about throwing you through a plate glass that one time.)

You are Tim Drake.

Wayne Family Adventures is extremely fan fic-y and comfort food-y - which isn’t a bad thing! It’s just not always my jam.

However, I am ALWAYS here for the random guest appearances by Batwoman and Azrael, who show up with “cool lesbian aunt” and “fun but unstable gay uncle” vibes

Charles Bukowski renewal I used to deliberately get into barroom fights with anybody around now as the world nears its end hear reports of the dinosaur being sighted again time for me to go back to the bars.

anyways back to the bars

It’s the heroin chic dark circles

No. This is where I go full Butlerian Jihad and Warhammer 40k. That’s an Abominable Intelligence and we shall not suffer it.

I was explaining to someone that I always read Ultron with Cotton Hill’s voice from King of the Hill and, anyways

Right!?! Like, they didn’t even like each other when they were both on X-Force. It felt so weird.

good news your most mentally ill friend has advice for you

EXPLAINING WHY I PLAY A PARTICULAR WARHAMMER 40K ARMY: *deep 30 minute lore dive*

Fortunately/unfortunately, yes, it is.

constantly

Got the full Ben Reilly experience today (got mistaken for someone else; made a joke about wanting to die, which nobody laughed at; spilled coffee all over myself)

Claremont fleshes out the O5 quitting in Classic X-Men #1 and #2, and Bobby insults (in order) Nightcrawler, Banshee, Colossus, Thunderbird, and Logan. And Warren brawls with Logan after Logan hits on Jean (right after Warren hits on Storm).

Kind of get the impression Chris didn’t uh like them.

Right! Like, Warren is the member of the O5 who historically likes Logan the LEAST

Like, I love when writers remember details like the fact that Warren and Logan historically do NOT get along.

The new X-Force is delightful, and I’m here for Warren telling Akihiro every single issue some version of, “Your father sucks shit, but you’re somehow worse.”

“I can remember” yeah I forget words now, too

Memory is a funny thing, because I couldn’t remember a password I use every day but I can the chords for a song on guitar that I haven’t played in probably like 15 years
