It's referring to the movie that our tattoos are based from. It's called I Saw the TV Glow.

Justin Richards @emocomicwriter.bsky.social · Aug 21

It might have taken us 6 years of working together before we got to hang out in person, but @valhal.bsky.social and I know how to make up for lost time! There's no one I'd rather dive head first into a TV with.

Seeing recent transphobic talking points poorly regurgitated into a comic is honestly the biggest ick factor for me with regards to that Bloodshot comic

This isn’t “classic” transphobia, it’s the product of modern, intentionally conditioned transphobia. This is the fetid fruit of the last 10 years
