Yesterday was the @dumb-industries.com 2026 Dumb Drive, so I wanted to show the art piece that @joelawler.bsky.social and I collaborated on for Jackey’s art class!

Joe had the amazing idea of combining Dr. Z from The Blood Waters of Dr. Z with the Dr. Z of @danagould.bsky.social and I doodled it!

King Kong vs. Godzilla, Dukakis vs. Bush, Joe's family vs. the VCR, Jonas vs. Christmas Eve. All this and a terrible Hollywood tragedy in my final blog post of 2025.

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a dinosaur on the back of a truck this week, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

A bag of Big Tits potato chips — for 10¢ you got 1 & 3/4 ounces of chips.

There's a picture of a large man in a suit with a walking stick on it that is of course "Big Tits" aka Titus Tart

In the 1930s, Titus Tart started a potato chip company, and of course he named it for himself.
