Brian Olsen Was Dead the Whole Time

I just got a new credit card with an expiration date in 2030, which is not a date I think should be in common usage yet as it is so obviously the far far future

The Rescue (The Daleks 7) (1964) | Who, Me Get more from Who, Me on Patreon

I'm back to my Doctor Who watch-through, with a look at the last episode of the second-ever story, "The Daleks," and a discussion about how there's more to a story than plot. On Patreon, but free to read!

If you're a leftist talking shit about the massive No Kings protests that happened yesterday, you clearly have no interest in building a mass movement and just want an online debating society

Me, in a mask, in Times Square

Not gonna post more pics cuz I’m paranoid about that whole face recognition thing, but the No Kings rally in Times Square is something to behold. Gives my cynical heart hope

I wrote about my time at New York Comic Con this past weekend. Lots of pics! #NYCC

I saw Zohran Mamdani today getting out of a cab, being photographed, and for a split second before I recognized him I honestly thought he was a model doing a photo shoot

I guess what I'm saying is New York has suffered enough, we deserve a hot mayor

Help I’m drunk and buying art

My friend John, who is dressed like Storm from the X-Men, and me. We are in the Javitz Center food court seating area drinking colorful alcoholic drinks from plastic cups.

Pretty much did everything I wanted to do at New York Comic Con so now I’m in the food court getting drunk

just in general bending my life towards spending as much of my time as possible around freaks and queers and weirdos has been the best thing ever

Watch this, please.

Anyway, cant wait to start my umpteenth Elfquest reread.

It was very similar to when I met Phil Foglio at #NYCC a few years ago and I couldn’t understand why there wasn’t a line around the corner. Don’t you kids today recognize legends when you see them? (shakes fist at cloud)

I told Wendy how when I was a kid I would make my mom take every issue to work and xerox the pages so I could cut them up and hand pictures of the characters on my walls. She was… politely bemused. #NYCC

I met Wendy and Richard Pini at New York Comic Con today and I’m still buzzing. Elfquest was so hugely fundamental for me. My brother bought me the first trade when it first came out and I still have it. It’s falling apart now so I bought the nice new edition from them today

Look at how close I was to Simu Liu. Look. I behaved so well I stayed in my seat I’m so proud of myself

Was gonna go to a Wayne Brady nerd improv panel later but he went to that Saudi Arabian comedy festival so fuck that

At New York Comic Con for day two. Seated fourth row center for Simu Liu’s panel. My eyes are not ready

Cosplay of The Fourteenth Doctor

Cosplay of the Sixth Doctor

Cosplay of the Thirteenth Doctor

A triptych of Doctor Who cosplay from my first day at New York Comic Con yesterday (including @getoutgurl81.bsky.social as 14)

A screen with "Starfleet Academy" at the top above the logo of same. Beneath that it reads "Brian Olsen has successfully completed orientation and is hereby recognized as a cadet of Starfleet Academy. Your recommended discipline is undeclared."

At New York Comic Con today I did the "Starfleet Academy" experience where you play games as if it's your entrance exam, and it was really fun, and at the end they tell you what your major will be based on your test results, and I got "undeclared".

Hi

Done with work until Tuesday and ready for New York Comic Con. My mental health has never depended so much on spending four days with a convention center full of nerds

I'm looking forward to starting both of those!

But for real so far I've watched Gastronauts and Crowd Control and they are both very good

I just subscribed to @dropout.tv and am really enjoying it. Glad someone is giving work to every improv coach I've ever had
