A Posthumous Mumm-Ra 🎃⚡😼 @aposthumousmemoir.bsky.social · 14d

New profile for the season. Perennially pinned post quoted below.

"A Posthumous Memoir" rebranded for the Halloween season as "A Posthumous Mumm-Ra 🎃⚡😼" with an avi of Mumm-Ra snarling in sorcerer form, and a ThunderCats banner centering Lion-O, with Tygra to his left, and Mumm-Ra in mummy form and Cheetara to his right. Snarf is mercifully out of frame on the bottom left, and there is no sign of the twins.

Excellent anecdote from Tim Curry's New Yorker interview.

Full text: www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-interview/tim-curry-does-the-time-warp

What was your relationship with Meat Loaf, whom you murder with an axe in the movie?

We were great friends, actually. I remember a moment when he was in New York with his girlfriend, later his wife, Leslie Loaf, which is what we all called her, and he said, “Timmy, I’m more famous than you are”—because he had a huge hit record, his very first album. I don’t remember which hotel we were in, but it was probably on one of the major avenues of Manhattan, and he said, “You and I should just walk down the street and see who recognizes who.” I said all right, and we did it. In fact, nobody recognized either of us. I thought that was funny. And he didn’t. He had an enormous ego.

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

not to be a wet blanket but no, protein powder lead content is not responsible for the way right wing men are. everything they are doing is 100% the logical conclusion of their material and social interests and investment in power. patriarchy is 5000 years older than protein powder.
