Doc Navarro | in my clark kent era

went to my first SABR meeting in a long time. it's good to be back!!

reading the comments of a random facebook meme where comic book nerds with intricate F4 knowledge have come together to blast a guy saying Sue Storm is too powerful in the new movie. just chilling on a thursday night.

the switch from rock band to cards against humanity as a go-to party game is such a profoundly evil shift in our society

Yeah, #Superman is what I would describe as an action comedy. #FantasticFour does a great job of telling a story where everything goes wrong again and again. I appreciated it. They were STRESSED. And so I was I. But at the end, I was absolutely worn out. You leave a survivor, not a victor.

In Review: It’s Not Too Late for the Movies to Reject AI A dramatic week in the AI wars made it clear that the future is far from lost, and that we can't afford to fight for it on the tech community's terms.

Make something. Do it now. Doesn't matter if it's polished or not. Make something because nobody has ever seen the world the way you do, and nobody will again. Make something because art is simply that which is authentically expressed. Let beauty take care of itself

i hope he becomes besties with Randy

I will miss him as a diamondbacks enjoyer but I am happy for you!!

twins fans, you now have my favorite pitcher, and as flawed as he has been this year, he had such an amazing streak last year. pleeease take care of him. thank you!!!

ok so Fairbanks is still a Ray? Is that what I'm understanding?

1 minute, we're manifesting a hold here

obviously I added Yandy to make it different <3 Rays please don't trade him in the next 3 minutes thanks

I don't actually know what you meant by this post but I stole it for trade deadline purposes dlfa;dkf

Screenshot of Darth Vader from Revenge of the Sith saying "Where is Padme? Is she safe, is she all right?" but a picture of Yandy Diaz has been photoshopped over the word Padme. It also now says "Is he safe, is he all right?"

(shamelessly stolen straight from oriolebird.bsky.social)

and IF I stole this.......

my yearly schedule stress breakdown [the final 10 minutes leading up to the MLB trade deadline]

coping with *gestures to everything* by becoming invested in the "roe deer" tag on tumblr.

Painting for a good friend who's moving back to Australia 🥺

Trump's new executive order about AI states that companies' models must not incorporate the idea that trans people exist as a concept. Seems bad.

A repost for the evening crowd: I wrote about Superman (2025) and my very complicated feelings about it.

James Gunn's 'Superman' is Messy. I Hope You See It Anyway. James Gunn's Superman is not a great film. I have seen it three times in two weeks. I cannot stop thinking about it with affection.

The reports of my death as a film critic have been greatly exaggerated. Thank you to Screen Speck for bringing me back on.

I love Superman yet still gave it 3/5 stars. Sometimes I am fond of things that I don't feel are perfectly-crafted. This is one of these times.

this was ROUGH

my fantastic four (unfortunately)

Two cartoon meme people drawn in black ink against a white background. One looks tired, exhausted. The other is blurry from vibrating, with balled fists and a wide grin suggesting excitement.

the tension between the need to get things accomplished and the impulse to spend time simply thinking about what makes me happy

the links to the white t-shirts from that fab article about Carmy's wardrobe are all dead now. not very trans-affirming.

I love the idea of being happy "in a non-negotiable manner." I am borrowing this phrase. 💜

IT'S BETTER TO BE NAIVE THAN JADED

incoming Superman post but I love that the sun heals Clark and the first time Luthor arrives on screen he's hidden behind sunlight.

good morning, Cocoa

Fanart of Superman floating in sky, blown out by the sun with dust clouds settling.
