Ran down to Eglington to get some lunch meat, and found a couple of things.

From FOX/DISNEY, PREDATOR BADLANDS (2025) on 4K. From PARAMOUNT Pictures, THE RUNNING MAN (2025) on 4K.

In a weird sort of symmetry I gt my FAVORITE film of 2025, and my LEAST favorite of 2025. ^_^;

Thoughts follow below.

This is the biggest failure yet.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who preordered the first two issues of Demon Run so far! Your support means the world to me. Thank you for supporting this passion project of mine.

If you haven't preordered yet, shop is still open until 4/3 (Link in Bio) and books will be in hand by May =)

“My family in Iran doesn’t like the regime.

But what Iranians distrust more than their own government is America.

Most Americans forget that we (the US) ended the Iranian experiment with democracy in 1953. It's well document that the US coup'd Iran's democratically elected government".

Felt like drawing older Disney characters, maybe as penance for all the dirty drawings.
I just pretty much never draw them or draw in that style. Anyways, something crossed my mind as I was looking at 101 Dalmatian images...

How is even the most cooked MAGA-Head not utterly EMBARRASSED every time this clown shoe opens his mouth on TV?

That is like the lightning fucking up your lightning detector.

Nothing pisses bigots off like a black woman who is competent and funny at the same time. Even more infuriating if she's good looking.

“At the end of the day, she didn’t sound any better than some of these ultra-conservative people who were demeaning Black and Brown folk on a regular basis,” said Rev. Rodney Sadler, a Bible scholar and longtime community activist in Charlotte. “It felt like a betrayal of the utmost.” Cunningham’s comments proved so problematic for Sadler that he said he realized that she was “no longer worthy of being our representative” and he had to run against her. “It drove me to a point of saying, ‘She needs to go, and she needs to go now,’” the 58-year-old pastor, who works at Charlotte’s Union Presbyterian Seminary, told Bolts.

this guy challenged a sitting Democratic lawmaker in yesterday's primary, angered by her pro-ICE vote, and he ousted her 70% to 22%.

I interviewed the directors of that incredible animated Gorillaz music video:

I'll always be obsessed with this edit made by @tommchenry.bsky.social

Swing, pendulum, swing

Eight Popeye-related statues displayed throughout the city of Chester, Illinois, where Thimble Theater/Popeye creator Elzie Segar was born and raised. Statues shown are Popeye, Olive Oyl with Swee'Pea and Eugene the Jeep, Alice the Goon, Poopdeck Pappy, Brutus/Bluto, King Blozo, The Sea Hag and Roughhouse.

TIL: Chester, Illinois has a "Popeye Trail" of 19 statues (28 characters) situated throughout the city in honor of hometown hero Elzie Segar. Beyond the main cast they have Castor/The Whiffle Hen, The Sea Hag/Bernard, Alice the Goon & Child, King Blozo, Toar & more. I have a nerdly urge to visit.

I'm begging the small local community groups in Ireland to please consider reframing their use of AI design work this way. The amount of drama and theatre groups in my sphere that I see using AI posters now just makes me sad.

That this guy is saying this means the tide is turning yet again. He’d never say anything that wasn’t meant to appeal to what he thinks is the broadest swath of voters.

I put so much love into this 🥲❤️ I have it up as a big poster & apparel on the store

Trans Rights Wins Elections

I think the Republicans being pro-gets-no-bitches is why they have a bunch of losers who get no bitches.

Young men love scamming people almost as much as they love losing their money to scams! >: |

Of course. -___-

Look at their smug fucking faces...laughing at all the poors left to die behind them.

Fuck I hate this world.

ARROW Video's 4K Limited Edition of WESTWORLD.

I wasn't sure I was going to like the movie, but it was pretty great, and the background stuff is pretty interesting.

I am a hugger.

Nothing noteworthy.

Hopefully liking movies/comics, being hard working, or loyalty?

I cannot answer this. I am a virgin, so I have no context for this.
