A catalogue listing from sears or Montgomery ward or something showing a grid pattern bedding set where the main color is navy blue with a white grid, and there are sporadic primary color blocks throughout the blue. The sheet is the same as the comforter except the main color is white and there’s a stripy pattern on the opening edge of the pillows

some 80’s bed sheets would fix me

I do not like this gen AI
I do not like what it implies
I do not want it in my art
I do not think it makes you smart
I do not want it in my games
I do not like its goals and aims
I do not want it in my books
I do not like the way it looks
I do not like it, I don't care
I do not want it anywhere

Did a big thread about this on Twitter a few years back, about how the Columbine shooters were steeped in nazi rhetoric, including eugenicist beliefs about killing disabled people, and just how much their neo-nazism wasn't just downplayed but omitted. Text from:

Talarico leads but Crockett goes to court in Democratic Texas Senate race shocker The race remains too close to call, but the upstart Democrat whose been praised by Stephen Colbert and Joe Rogan leads as results pour in

It's kind of surprising how despite living in a completely different state with different dynamics, James Talarico basically replicated Zohran Mamdani's coalition:
-Latinos
-Young people in the cities
-Asian-Americans
-Upper-class high-educated whites

BREAKING: James Talarico wins the Democratic Senate primary in Texas.

Talarico ran on fighting corruption in DC, and winning back power for working people.

In an era of vast inequality Talarico told voters that β€œbillionaires are waging class warfare against the rest of us.”

The Pentagon is rapidly burning through its stocks of precision weapons at a rate that puts the U.S. military potentially β€œdays away” from having to prioritize which targets to intercept, according to three people familiar with the matter.-WSJ

ADV Films' original logo

ADV Films' original logo

So, fun fact of the day: A.D. Vision started using the "ADV Films" moniker in October 1995

Initial registration was on 9/4/1995, and site opened about a month and two weeks later, on 10/19/95. Emails were up by 10/13 as they were attached to PRs for Gunsmith Cats and Blue Seed

Original logo below:

Holy shit. These people shouldn’t be near sharp cutlery, let alone seats of power.

Mullin: β€œThis is war.”

Raju: β€œYou concede this is war?”

Mullin: β€œWe haven’t declared war.”

Reporter: β€œYou just said it’s a war.”

The origin of the TMNT and Splinter, as printed on the back of classic Playmates Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figure packaging:

Panel 1 is the Turtles falling through the sewer onto Hamato Yoshi with the text, "The Evolution of the Turtles... A boy's bowl of pet turtles falls into the stench of an underground city sewer. They land on Splinter, a penniless but powerful Ninja master who lives in the muck."

Panel 2 features Shredder pouring mutagen ooze down the manhole onto the the normal turtles. The text reads, "Splinter's enemy, Shredder (leader of the evil Foot Clan), pours a disgusting green ooze over Splinter (and accidentally, the Turtles!), hoping to zap him dead."

The third panel shows the Turtles and Splinter mutating. The text reads, "Instead, the Turtle pets mutate into Turtle teens, and Splinter turns into the biggest rat ever to face a trap."

The fourth panel shows the TMNT with weapons drawn. The text reads,  "Splinter, the big cheese leader, teaches the Turtles the ways of the Ninja! Together they form a kick-stomping fighting team for the side of good against the deadly Foot Clan! Get ready for the TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES!"

Above the story are the Nickelodeon logo (left) and 1987 TMNT logo (right)

"a penniless but powerful Ninja master" is a good way to describe a lot of ninja masters, tbh
