Jia’s to-do list: Find the wizard’s killer. Save an innocent barbarian (who’s still kind of a jerk). Get her aunt the crime boss off her back. Find the wizard’s missing roommate -- alive. Maybe make some time with the barbarian’s cute partner. And oh yeah, don’t die... #Bluepit #fa #sns #A

It's a new look.

At a local No Kings rally near Innsmouth, Massachusetts, *every* protester showed up in an inflatable frog costume.

They must be from a different supplier than the Portland frog's costume, though. Bystanders describe the costumes as more like fish-frogs, "batrachian," with an odd, loping gait.

I’m sure nothing will go awry with this delightful idea!

Now that I think about it, Rogue, Remy, and Kurt are all adopted, and Jubilee and Logan are both orphans.

What's an opinion about X-Men that'll get you sent to jail? Is Jean really interesting or really boring? Should Logan have stayed dead? Do you think a certain x-mens outfit is positively horrendous even though people seem to love it?

The Brood Saga is better than Dark Phoenix imo 🤷

i think it should be extremely easy to get a job. what do you really risk just throwing me in the mix and seeing what happens? a few dollars in wages, maybe a few more in the unemployment fund? we both know you have the money. I’M the one who doesn’t have the money! because i’m asking you for a job!

In recent years practically every minor character from the Marvel universe has been unearthed, and many from DC. Are there any unretrieved characters who you think about who might have more life in them?

The unexamined life may not be worth living, but it sure is lucrative.

Also, and maybe this is just me, but I don’t really see much value in going back into, say, The Martian Chronicles, and adding in that everybody has cell phones.

I have to admit, “This time the Predator has Elle Fanning for a backpack” is a novel direction for the franchise.

War. War never changes.

Alaska is again becoming a priority for U.S. military leadership, who see the state not just as a base from which to send out American forces, but also a place that could be the site of actual warfare. (via Northern Journal)

With twin threats from Russia and China, U.S. military puts new focus on Alaska

In the past, large-scale exercises “occurred in Alaska,” one general says. “Now, this is high-end training that is occurring — that is about Alaska, from Alaska.”

If that doesn’t count, horse-drawn carriages.

My days here lately consist of following weirdos and freaks (complimentary) and blocking weirdos and freaks (derogatory)

In honor of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand

If the US can ever vomit this stupid era out we're gonna need widespread all-ages education on basic facts like when you'd see old billboards or MST3k shorts advertising the concept of hand washing or being good.
