Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.

Sharks may not be the best team in the league, although they are very good. But they are definitely the most entertaining. #nhl

Dear #DnD actual play streamers: session 0 is ONLY interesting if you actually provide meaningful info about your characters. We don’t need an hour of the table DMing each other and giggling. You might as well do that in private.

And I’m saying this as someone who loves a good session 0.

I loved Badlands, it was everything you wanted: a Predator killing alien monsters and robots. And while I get why people aren’t stoked about the PG-13 rating, they kind of cheated to get gore. They just made it non-human gore. There’s plenty of alien viscera. Loved it.
Predator Badlands was really fun!

Action was great, leads were great, everything was great.

Obviously it sucks a little that it’s not a visceral R rated blood fest, but that’s not the story they wanted to tell and I’m ok with that.

Recommend.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Waymo Ditched Drivers, But It’s Paying People To Close Robotaxi Doors
A Waymo robotaxi will not move if one of its doors is not closed all the way. So the company is paying at least $20 to fix the problem.
