"What If ... The United States Kept the Original Copyright Law From 1790 That Protected Works For 14 Years With An Additional 14 Years If The Author Was Still Living Such That Inferno and Every X-Men Story Prior to the End of Operation Zero Tolerance Was Public Domain?"

What if...? Marvel stopped hiring Gerry Duggan for everything and instead found a writer who has interesting ideas and knows how to pace a story?

Tomorrow or the next day or the day after that, someone cool and kind that we all admire who contributed positively to the world will die before their time. And HE will still be here. Then it’ll happen again, and again, and again…and he’ll still be alive and kicking. This is our hell we all share.

Tonight's guy was so damn hot that even though it's 34 F outside, I still had to pick up ice cream on my way home to cool off

The global feature is a little weird, though. I of course love the attention but what am I supposed to do with guys woofing at me from Australia, Italy, and Egypt?

I should have listened to everyone who told me so and signed up for Scruff ages ago. Been talking with lots of guys and I have three dates this week. And interest from a few others. All that after a hookup yesterday.

I'm going to be cumming sand by the end of March, guaranteed.

Esad Ribic is also responsible for the iconic Wolverine cover where he's reclining in a chair leering at a silhouetted nude Nightcrawler standing in the foreground. This guy knows what he's doing and he's a legend for it.

Just stuck in a mythical golden age even though things were so much better and interesting just 2 years ago

Crazy how Brevoort's handling of X-Men echoes the real world. After years of progressive storytelling (both politically and literally in that it's new stories), we've thrown that all away and are stuck redoing the exact same things from decades ago bc the folks in charge pine for the olden days.

I hope your landlord fixes this quickly! Friends had to threaten legal action to their condo management to get them to take roof repairs seriously. It shouldn't have to come to that for you.
