🎶 Thunder Boys Playlist 🎶

I'm going to start a thread of songs the kiddo loves to play over and over and over again. He definitely knows what he likes.

This is his current fave -

Right? Like I truly do not understand why they made basically any of these choices. I saw a post calling him iconic, and... No.

This post is an important public service.

I'm shocked it's even worse than I was expecting given the weird pro-serial killer promos about it. I do not understand how anyone thought this was how to approach this story.

My review of Monster: The Ed Gein Story

I am not being hyperbolic when I say this is one of the worst television shows I have ever seen in my whole 40 years on this planet. That this bears absolutely zero resemblance to the real Ed Gein is one thing in and of itself, but even if this was about a completely fictional murderer (which it essentially IS), it would be baffling and indefensible. By the time history's greatest lover and friend Ed Gein starts speaking in an Irish accent and solving crimes, the show is so far gone you have to just fucking accept it. This is what you've chosen to do with your precious time. You've committed eight hours to the absurdist rehabilitation of Ed Gein, misunderstood victim who lit up every room he entered. After all, aren't we the monsters or whatever? Who lives, who dies, who tells his stoooory?

I just know this cat walked a Roosevelt down, took no prisoners at the fall of an empire, and still owes money to a Pharaoh

I found a 19th century Cat Villain!

A huge chonk of a fluffy cat sitting on a table near an open fire. The cat is cream and grey and appears to be shaped like a barrel in a fur coat. They are scowling fiercely with their moustache and bewhiskered ears apparently flowing back into the cold wind. There's a definite vibe that this villainous cat twirls their moustache as they evict orphans into the aforementioned blizzard and think Scrooge was an easy-going lightweight. They are magnificent.

It's definitely too 90's for me. It did do a great job of reminding me how women were treated when I was growing up. And I really do not need to witness that again. The bad CGI was much more tolerable.

I'm not sure that some people know that thebpic on the right is exactly what the voice actor Erika Iishi looks like.

They are beautiful and wonderful. It feels incredibly disrespectful to talk about how the character looks without talking about the person the character model is based on.

Gamers’ brains are so cooked dude. The woman on the right is gorgeous and beautiful. Straight gamer men literally can’t find normal women attractive anymore.

In Australia they have a long persistent history of refusing to provide supplies to LGBTQ+ people on the street. Their work will always be tainted for me.

I always wonder how many kids have been injured from falling out of them or into the stuff in the wagon with them.

I see lots of parents of disabled kids using them to cart the kid plus all the crap they need, but they rarely seem to be secured in a safe supportive way. It makes me so anxious.

I'm doing another print run of these "Biology is Bigger than Binaries" shirts!

Back, quite literally, by popular demand. Bullying works, sure, but so does a bunch of nice cutie patooties politely asking!

Order 'em now, I'll mail 'em in early November.

THE MARS ROVER IS HERE?!

With adventure photos (alas, with awful alt text).

Alt text: A slight hill, with a rounded peak on the left and a downward slope that flattens out to the right.
The sky is a pale grey-yellow. The land is reddish brown with grey-yellow highlights and scattered rock shadows.
