If you’re wondering whether I still loudly boo whenever Coach K is on my TV, the answer is goddamn right.

Started The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins and I’ve already laughed out loud several times. This show has the juice.

I’m a sucker for 30 Rock/Kimmy Schmidt/Great News/Girls 5Eva style shows, but still.

Love that he’s getting to work on a big franchise! Hope it leads to folks discovering his other work.

Yeah, we’re lucky that the MAGA aesthetic is so tacky. Absolutely no juice.

Cartoon titled "know the work rules".

The first panel, labeled "appropriate" depicts Garfield the cat in a business suit leaning around the edge of a cubicle and pointing to a woman at her desk while saying, "coffee lasagna Mondays am I right?" to which the woman responds, hands clasped together, "awww you're so funny"

The second panel, labeled "inappropriate", depicts a far side cow leaning around the edge of the same cubicle and speaking with a word bubble which contains only the shapes of the 4 cow tools.  The woman fearfully picks up the 
Phone and says, "hello , complaint department??!"

Got Henri Veesaar on one screen and Henry Zebrowski on another. A real spectrum of Eastern European Henry’s.

Based on how many shitty tech bros love LotR, it’s feasible!

Okay, but we need POSITIVE representation.

How could I forget Ken?! That’s a great example, especially since he’s a good guy.

I’m just so tired of shitty men making my interests look bad. There’s so much diversity in genre now and the fans deserve better representation!

I’m kind of on the fence, but I’ll allow it. Abed gets points for being a positive portrayal of a neurodivergent person, too.

Not sure Abed qualifies when it comes to having other interests. But he definitely qualifies when it comes to being a guy who isn’t intolerable to be around. He’s sweet!

Pretty sure that’s just Over the Hedge, but it’s Bruce Willis and he’s a raccoon.

We’re kind of achieving this RL with the mainstreaming of anime. You’ve got cool celebs like Michael B. Jordan and Megan thee Stallion, plus basically all of Gen Z. It’s been normalized. I want this for other genres!

Been trying to think of fictional characters like this, and the best I can come up with is Ben Wyatt? He wears his love of GoT and Batman on his sleeve but he’s still a (relatively) normal guy.

We need more representation for people who love science fiction and fantasy and other traditionally β€œnerdy” shit but aren’t like Big Bang Theory or Ready Player One style maladjusted man babies about it. People who have other interests, too! People who can function in polite society! We exist!!!

We decided we loved C-Tates, and Chet became our new white boy villain.

I didn’t read it until I was in my 30s and I’m ashamed that it took me so long.

Opened the HBO app on my Apple TV to watch The Pitt, and it gave me an error message and started playing Bill Maher??? How very dare.
