Did you enjoy the new Endurance documentary? Wonder what Shackleton's expedition would be like when combined in a graphic novel with Lovecraft's At The Mountains of Madness, Arthurian legend, and South Pacific mythology? Well I have great news ...

If only he had kept his family's tradition of being the Ghost Who Walks.

Trump commenting again that he can't get into heaven is because he thinks he needs earthly commendations to be deemed worthy. He has no concept of spirituality & subsequent empathy & divine grace. He wants to use trophies as the stairway to heaven. He thinks the Nobel would sanctify him.

As a convention tabler in the South, this kinda terrifies me.

Why would the liberal teachers use the books in the first place? Jesus, people, be smarter about your stupidity.

Mom's 4 Liberty finally realizes they are on the losing end of a 75-25 issue seeing @rweingarten.bsky.social celebrating banned books and just decide to go with, no, no, the liberals are the book banners.

moms 4 liberty tweet attacking "the left" for being the real book banners because Randi Weingarten is celebrating banned book week.

In the 1970s our neighborhood shut down so everyone could go home to watch The Muppet Show. Street games stopped. Parents ended front yard conversations. It was the beginning of the nighttime routines. It came on at 7:30, I think, on ABC. Anyway she was on the same level as The Fonz and JJ Evans.

By the time of this appearance in the late-80s on DOLLY, Miss Piggy had *such* a well-defined character from years of worldwide exposure on the immensely popular MUPPET SHOW that you could easily build a comedy sketch around that public knowledge of her personality…

I would love a video series of sports writers watching weekend football. I want to see their Ozymandias screen wall, how they set up the food table, how many remotes they have to use to pause for bathroom breaks and small chores, how they take notes.

The Gary Martin books are great for this too.

The continuing contradictions of people engaging in criminal activity on a "day of love" and being pardoned for causing a riot because they wanted to stop the certification of the person they supported makes my fully functioning mind ache.

That’s a nice trick, since Biden wasn’t the president on Jan 6.

Just waiting for the Kill Bill sound.

The inherent problem with the Deep State conspiracy is that the people in the highest offices and their loyal underlings are too simple/naive/dim to recognize the subterfuge. It's a constant admittance that they are getting outwitted by liberals and progressives and people in fucking frog costumes.

"Who was the president in 2020?" (and the first 20 days of 2021) remains one of the great unresolved mysteries in American political science. The media could never weigh in on such a complex question!

“The Biden FBI”

Who was President on January 6?

It is so clearly "comics." It is fun and energetic.

FOX Sports playing a Moody Blues song from 1968 to go to commercial feels like intentional anti-Bad Bunny programming.

There needs to be a documentary on the evolution of women's wrestling attire in the last 40 years. It feels like there are subgenres and houses of design at work, and everyone's gear looks amazing.

Low resolution images throughout.

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

A generic predisposition, in his view, means he is a weak individual who can only be a burden to others. He is unfit.

The far-right mouthpiece who told young men to clean up their place while in front of his very clearly messy home, now has contracted an illness from all the mold in his home.

If you wrote such a fascist character in a story it would be deemed a silly caricature.
