The Kid La Croix

Next he's off to Austria, which ilhe mixed up with Australia

Jesus H Cristo there sure are a flood of islamophobes tonight from those that might consider themselves "Liberal."
America's politic might emerge from our crisis with a semblance of compassion & kindness but England feels like nothing but hate and righteous vengeance, as it has been for centuries.

Ever have a 180 BPM song run through your head for hours on end? Not even my nighttime meds are fixing this.

As an aside, it's going to weather so nicely over the coming decades.

What season was it? That may be a clue.

This project I started yesterday will absolutely consume me if I don't finish it in the next couple of days.
I'm locked in, which explains why I'm posting at 1:20 in the morning

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

Curious byline from an organization whose funding was taken away.

Two sentence horror story

Sneezing is just your soul trying to leave your body! Saying "bless you" shoves it back in!

Nowadays, their event Whoppers are just the same burgers except with a different bun, and sometimes the only thing they add is food coloring.

Some tweets are too perfect to be lost to the other site. @davidjroth.bsky.social

Also also, none of you are beating the “everyone on Bluesky is 38” allegations.

Whenever I'm doing something that I know is futile but I'm hoping it works anyway, I mimic Flanders' "Godspeed, little doodle."

There is no bipartisanship. Get it through your dense skulls.

Nobody asked for it. We did it anyway.

If you ever used Winamp during the later years, it had an awesome, awesome visualizer called Milkdrop. The Webamp people implemented a workalike called Butterchurn.

Internet Archive now supports Webamp and Butterchurn. Just click on the llama!

I put the full 600 DPI images here archive.org/details/mc-d...

Aaaand BSky compression ate this up like a filet o' fish. Gonna put this on IA

Front cover of the $20,000,000 Quality in the bag collecting game, with over 50,000,000 cash and foot prizes. Art features cartoon ingredients.

Inside cover with places to collect all the stamps needed to win each prize. Some are filled in. Also has fun facts about each of the ingredients.

One panel has a place to put your instant win prizes, including one actual game piece that would have been good for a french fry prize in 1982

Back panel of the tri-fold are the rules with odds.

As an (autistic) kid in the 90s, I loved the McDonald's Monopoly game so I had to pick up this flyer for the 1982 version before they partnered with Parker Brothers.
I don't have a large-format scanner, so I had to stitch the tri-fold scene together.
And look, I won a free order of french fries!

If we only had an elected group of people that could enforce those laws, you wouldn't happen to know anyone, would you?

I also have advice. Everybody loves reading advice on the computer, so I'll share it: the best thing you can do right now is log off as hard as you can. Go outside, talk to people in real life where it's actually kind of rude to talk about the news, try to actually see the friends you usually just text message. Go for a long drive and turn the phone off while you do it. Get back into your hobbies or pick one and learn it for a while. Watch one of those studio movies that reviews called "wildly miscalculated" and you haven't seen since high school. Play an album you like but find embarrassing. Go to free community events even if they sound stupid. If you take the freeway, try the surface streets. Go to a bad diner and just order some bad coffee because even bad coffee is good coffee. You can't help anybody when you're exhausted and keep posting one million college-educated rewordings of "I would love to be dead right now" on the computer. Walk away from the thing and try out some of those normal things you hear about and if you get bored that's wonderful because we're not supposed to get bored anymore. It turns out boredom is the Cadillac of feelings.

Planet Blip is post-capitalism! 🪐😉

OK, that was my biggest hang-up too. Where were the infomercials?? Everything else is lovely. They get us.

There are so many things I love about it but saying anything would be a spoiler. It needs to be experienced, preferably late at night.

Blippo+ understands how to do nostalgia: it's about what made the past memorable, not the bare elements themselves.

Blippo+ is delightful. It gets me, and I'm not that into New Wave. I got through maybe half of it and love how it progresses as a story while also doing fluffy little pieces on the side. It gets the concept of syndicated television that not every thing has to advance the plot.

We are now hearing rumors that the Trump Administration may be increasing federal forces in Portland. The power of this city is in our ability to care for our neighbors. Please take care of each other, stay safe, and stay peaceful. Don't take Trump's bait.

Anyway, evergreen
