This is one of my favorite comics stores in the entire country, and due to the pandemic and some other issues, it is asking for a bit of help. I hope you go look and spread the word, donate a little bit (or a lot) if you can.
I'm going to donate some in the morning, hope you will consider it, too.

This was an epic moment in television. They decided to make Snuffleupagus real at the advice of child psychologists who said children needed to know their parents would believe them if they told them about someone they knew doing things with them the parents didn’t know
[November 18th, 1985] In the Season 17 premiere of Sesame Street, Episode 2096, the adults on Sesame Street finally meet Mr. Snuffleupagus and realize he is real, not imaginary.
Elmo is also introduced as a new character.

Jim Jordan begged someone to not rat out the sexual assault that was happening at Ohio State. He was crying on the phone. Groveling. This man threw out all his dignity to try and cover for horrifying crimes of sexual abuse. Think about that for a moment.

I know it is the nature of my brain to find new special interests and lose my mind over them, but goddamn am I fucking loving getting into miniature making and painting.
And then I get to play games with them!? Holy shit.
Getting better at taking pics of them is on my to-do list.

Although many people are saying it, I do not believe our current president sucked off former president Bill Clinton on camera. I have not seen sufficient evidence that our current president gave the former president a blowie in a way that was memorialized in a photo. That's not something I believe.

My most woke opinion is that cities should completely ignore suburban commuters and design the city we aspire to be. They’ll either begrudgingly commute in by car, mode shift, or be replaced by others in foot traffic
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

You can not pay me to know about or respect Nuzzi.
High 6 figures for me to briefly pretend to. I will not be signing an NDA because I will not be able to keep up the facade, even for ridiculous sums of money.

Don't shop at Home Depot. Got it.
Just learned that my pastor, the sweetest human I ever met, led a vigil protesting Home Depot's open-doors-to-ICE policy on Dia de Muertos, and the Home Depot they were protesting shut their heavy steel security doors to the harmless clergy, something they do not do to actual ICE.

To make this point even clearer, not that it should matter, but it's never just transphobia. There isn't a single transphobe alive who otherwise shares your nice views. I dare you to name a single case where that's true.
An antifascist popular front and transphobia are incompatible. A big tent that includes transphobes isn't a big tent, it's a tent with a hole in the roof.
