This is a duplicate image of the comic panel from the skeet above with the image description continuing in this one's alt text, picking up from the middle of the page. Not pictured are later parts of the story in this & later issues, where the rest of the cast have positive reactions to Tong.

Image description part 2 from FF Vol 2 Issue 6 by Matt Fraction, Joe Quinones, Laura Allred, Clayton Cowles, (Tom Brevoort editor)

Mid page, second full page width horizontal panel is panel 4.

Panel 4 Tong's (four-fingered) hands are outstretched to either side of her head as she asks: "Are you still my brothers? Are you still my family?"

Panel 5 (lower left corner): Korr, belly height on Tong, hugs her closely while Tong raises her arms awkwardly to let him in. Korr says, "Love my Tong."

Panel 6 Turg smiles and presses his head to his bottle against Tong's smiling head with a "Tunk" sound, Korr continues to hug Tong, Mik does as well and is seen from the back. Tong says, "I love you too."

Panel 7 large circle in the lower right corner, close up on Tong's face, smiling broadly with both eyes tearing, she says "Oh, I love you all so very much."

And after work a new pic in said ft for World Goth Day

Me, a tall white woman with over-the-breast length brown hair, wearing a very broad brimmed black sun hat, an ankle length short sleeved black velvet on black burn-out narrow vertically striped dress, turned facing camera left and holding in front of me three dried dead roses in reddish purple. I'm also wearing a black patterned fabric beltpouch, visible at my forward elbow.

Also: I should screen shot these as "What's wrong with this?" questions for my students.

Screenshot of a comics panel showing white text over an image, mostly of dark-blue space, but with pale grey space station parts on the far left and bottom, and an image of the Hulk, a large muscular man, on the right side, crouched and facing down-panel.

The text in the panel reads "S.H.I.E.L.D. Weapons Platform in geosynchronous orbit over The City".

Below the panel are credits which read

More Marvel re-reads from decades past feeling relevant at the moment. Kitty Pryde making some observations while Lockheed lies across her lap recovering from an injury sustained the previous issue. - From Excalibur 11, 4/4/1989

Comic panel with text bubbles occupying the left side and on the right is Kitty Pryde, a teen girl with short wavy brown hair looking to right of panel with an upset expression. She is kneeling on the floor and wearing a pink bathrobe, and Lockheed, her purple dragon companion lies injured on his back across her lap. Her left side is angled towards the viewer and drops down across Lockheed's middle and holds a spoon, while her right arm, raised up to her neck level positions her hand in a claw-like partial grasp.

Kitty says: "I just LOVE the way everybody rolls over and trusts those creeps. I mean, they're NAZIS!
If they've got the means to transport themselves here...
...what's to stop them beaming over a conquering army...
...and picking up where our Hitler left off.""

Lockheed: "GROANNN!"

Look, the Shi'ar were shooting at Chris Summers' plane, it was going down, Katherine had just pushed the boys out, Scott and Alex were falling - A lot was happening! Sometimes you need to simplify things to figure out what's going on.

Dry erase marker on whiteboard drawing and words. All of the text, and most of the picture is in blue.

There's a picture slightly left of center of a circle with two rounded simple figures, almost gingerbread cookie shaped. The one on the left (representing Alex Summers) has his mouth in an "O" shape. The one on the right (representing Scott Summers) has a wide red beam extending from his eyes aimed downward and slightly to the right.

Text surrounding the drawing reads:

A = crosssectional area
* assume spherical Summers brothers
radius 0.5 m
=> A = pi r^2
A ~ 3.14 (0.5)^2
A ~ 0.78 m^2

Re-reading old X-books and 𝘗𝘭𝘶𝘴 ç𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦, 𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘴 𝘤'𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘢 𝘮ê𝘮𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦.⁣ How it feels when you're in a scapegoated minoritzed group as per Chris Claremont, Jackson Guice, et al. in New Mutants 48 from late 1986, cover date Feb 1987

Three panels from a comic, credited in white text on black in the lower third of the image detailed after panel descriptions:

Panel 1: Older Sam Guthrie of Earth 8270, a blond-haired white man with short hair and full beard stubble wearing goggles pushed to his forehead looks outside while Roberto DaCosta, a black haired teen with brown skin speaks from behind:
Roberto: How - why did everything go wrong?!
Sam: Beats me. Anything bad in the world... ...all of a sudden got blamed on mutants.

Panel 2: Sam continues speaking over art depicting a burning building in the back ground while protesters in the foreground carry signs reading "Muties go Home", "Muties are a Disease. Find a cure"
Sam: America's enemies had mutant spies an' saboteurs, so people said, wreckin' our economy an' our defenses. The drought of '86 was our fault, an' the winter of '90, and the Great Earthquake.

Panel 3: Sam continues to talk in the background, while older Dani Moonstar of Earth-8270 grimly stares out the fourth wall. She's colored all in red and black in shadow, wearing a Viking helmet with wings on either side, long hair in braids, and a broad cape, somehow supported horizontally to extend beyond her shoulders.

Sam: We were responsible for the decline of morality. We were a sign of God's displeasure - You name it, we took the rap. Be funny if it weren't so tragic.

A painting comprising a portion of the Erol Otus cover of the Basic Set of the 1981 edition of Dungeons and Dragons by Tom Moldvay.

In a cave in pink/fuschia tones, a stair case descends from an arch right of center near the top of frame. At its base stands a tall blonde woman wearing a floor-length, sleeveless red dress and cloak, holding a lit torch in her right hand with her left arm raised holding a glowing green smokey orb. She prepares to throw it at a large green dragon occupying the entire left half of the frame, toothy mouth open, rising out of a large pool of water. Around the mage's waist is strapped a dagger and near her feet, an open chest full of jewels. In the center front of frame, a bearded, behelmed warrior crouches, a wooden shield on his right forearm interposed between himself and the dragon's maw. In his left arm, he readies a spear or javelin to strike the dragon's torso or lower neck.

The veil between the worlds grows thin... [Pic of proto-Krista from <cough> 27 years ago...]

A pic of me, a white woman with chin length brown hair wearing all black and with most of my face in shadow. The lighting is dim, dark yellow & features are difficult to make out. From my face, only the bridge of my nose and center of my forehead are visible. I wear a longsleeved black crop top with black fringe, and am leaning slightly forward so very little abdomen is visible. I wear a long black skirt and my hands are partly visible holding it out on either side at hip level.

Generally creepy vibes

"Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose" - a panel from Peter David et. al's X-Factor: Layla Miller from 17 years ago.

Comic book panel from X-Factor: Layla Miller
Panel depicts people standing in Washington Square Park in NYC, 80 years in a dystopic future.
The arch is partially crumbled.
The speaker at the podium says: "In the future we will look back in shame upon these days of mutant encampments. Just as previous generations felt of the Japanese over a century ago. While we quaked in fear over Tojo and Hitler, innocent Americans suffered. We see that same sort of paranoia and bias now!"

I'm back from @bostondykemarch.com which I love It felt like the March was particularly large this year, from how we filled the streets as we exited the Common Happy to see a wide age range attending. We'll be in good hands w/ the next gen. Pic from before I left home in what I wore to the March.

Me, a pale woman with long brown hair (secured in a pony tail and not visible in image). The outfit is in trans pride flag colors. I'm wearing a light blue leotard with a pink pleated miniskirt, a white satin sash tied around my waist and secured with a large bow on my right hip (camera-left).

Hormone therapy is amazing. It'll be six years this summer and so often now, I'll catch sight of myself in the mirror and think "oh my gosh, I actually look good! I look like me!" And I didn't start until I was nearly 47. Gender euphoria. It's awesome.

"there is
still time"

Image from the film "I Saw the TV Glow"

A wide suburban street, lined with houses trees, front lawns, and sidewalks. A figure stands in the distance in the center of the road in the top third of the frame. Between the figure and the viewer the street is full of chalk drawings. Taking up most of the bottom half of the image in pink chalk on the street are the words "there is still time"

That canceled tv show you'll never stop thinking about

Amanita Caplan and Nomi Marks as portrayed by Freema Agyeman and Jamie Clayton in Sense8

Two women, side by side, lean slightly leftward in frame. Both look to the right of frame and have their mouths slightly open.

The woman on left, Aminita is of darker complexion with long tight braids, a few of which are dyed purple. She wears a plaid miniskirt and a green tanktop with vertical ribs.

The woman on the right is Nomi, and has long center parted light brown slightly wavey hair and pale skin. She wears glasses and a plaid button-down shirt with sleeves rolled up to just above the elbow. Only her right arm is visible, extending left and downward, hand on Aminita's right hip, lightly holding Amanita back from whatever is off camera right.

Amanita slightly behind and camera left of Nomi, holds her right (camera left) arm bent to place her right hand on Nomi's left shoulder and right forearm parallel and lying along Nomi's left upper arm.

They are in Nancy Drew investigating mode.

Case in point: ASM 535 by JMS, Ron Garney, Bill Reinhold, Matt Milla Iron Man: This place is not on American soil. American Laws don't touch here. American lawyers don't come here. Iron Man: Once non-registrants come here, they're legal nonentities. Iron Man: Occupants. Iron Man: Prisoners.

Two tall narrow comic panels on the left and a block of white text on black on the right.

Panel 1: Seen from above, Tony Stark puts on his Iron Man helmet while walking down a corridor, leading a muscular Peter Parker wearing a black t-shirt and chest harness.

Peter: But She-Hulk... Jennifer Walters... She's in Court, every day, defending these guys, making motions...

Tony: She can make all the Motions she wants. This is outside the jurisdiction of local and federal courts. This is an act of Congress, signed by the President. Only the Supreme Court can intervene, and I happen to know they won't.

Second Panel: Close up on Iron Man's face, still slightly from above, helmet now on.

Iron Man: This place is not on American soil. American laws don't touch here. American lawyers don't come here. Once non-registrants come here, they're legal nonentities. Occupants. Prisoners.

Iron Man: Them... and those who give them aid and support.

Post your favorite Doctor Who. Wrong answers only. Take 2... er wait? was that the one before? This is The Doctor.. captain... something...

Captain Kangaroo stands with right arm down and left arm raised and bent, left hand facing camera, with a white ping pong ball held between middle and ring fingers.

He is a somewhat broad, middle aged man with greying blonde hair in a short, "bowl"/page boy cut. He wears a red sport jacket with white trim over a white shirt with a dark, probably black, tie.

Post your favourite Doctor Who. Wrong answers only. Er.. wait.. no. That's The Master. I'll try again in a sec.

Leo McKern as "Number 2" in the TV series The Prisoner.

A man sits in a blue, Eero Aarnio, egg chair. He has dark brown hair with a receeding hairline, and a Van Dyke style beard & moustasche. He wears a navy blue jacket with arms folded with a multi-colored scarf tucked behind them. He sits crosslegged in khaki trousers wearing shoes with dark area around the laces and white toes.

In the foreground, lower frame, is a panel with multicolored keys or buttons. In the rear to the left of the chair is a penny-farthing bicycle - a late 19th century bike with one very large wheel below the seat and one much smaller rear wheel.

A theremin you say? I _tried_ to align hand positions to notes, but haven't practiced enough for consistency. I had the kit for years, and only finished building it not quite 3 years ago.

A theremin - in a woodgrain rectangular prism of a box sits on a red topped kitchen counter with a various containers behind and to the left, along with a door with a diamond window up high, also left, and a tile wall behind center and right.

The theremin's pitch antenna extends vertically up on the right side, and the loop of the volume antenna extends from the left.

The center of the housing is black.
On its left under an audio jack is written "moog"

Rightward of that, in the housing are four dial controls, the labeling of which is illegible at this resolution.

A story which wraps up with this essential truth:

Two comic panels along with a caption.

The caption in black on white text in the middle & lower right reads:
Dr. Charlene McGowan with The Fast Five Crew and Elektra Natchios in DC Pride (sic) [actually it was Marvel Voices Pride] 2021 "Something New Every Day" By Lilah Sturges, Derek Charm, and Brittany Peer.

Top Panel:
Four figures in armor with helmets crouch with their wrists bound behind them. They are, left to right clad in violet, magenta, green, and red armor, while In red fabric with a hood with devil horns, a long black pony tail leans Elektra Natchios over the wrists of the green armored figure. The upper part of her face is all black with yellow eyes.

The brown hair, right eye and right half of Charlene McGowan, a white woman, occupies the right most part of the frame.

Redline, the crouching red figure says: Hey, my cousin is trans! Do you know her? She's @genderama!!!1989 on social?

Charlene: Trans people don't all know each other $@%hole.

Lower left panel, a close up of a smart phone in Charlene's right hand at a table with partially visible drinks and napkins.

The screen reads:

@Genderrama!!!1989
TODAY 5:14 PM

[Charlene's text bubble in white text on slate grey]: Hey, you never told me you had a cousin who was a SUPER VILLAIN.

Screenshot of a Tweet by me: Text reads:
Krista Brynn @KristaBrynn Dec 10, 2020
For cross-sectional area we shall assume spherical Summers Brothers with a radius of 0.5 meters, which results in a cross-sectional area of 0.78 square meters.

See Figure 3.

Image of blue dry erase marker on a white board with text that reads:
A = crosssectional area
* assume spherical Summers brothers
Then there's a circle with two cartoonish figures drawn inside, one of whom (Cyclops) is shooting a red beam from his eyes, downward.
To the right of the drawing, the text continues:
radius 0.5 m
=> A = pi r^2
A = 3.14(0.5)^2
A = 0.78 m^2

Or the light that took different paths can appear to have come from the same point such that when you look towards whatever is bending their path, it looks like the object - a virtual image. In the pictures here, it's lenses doing the bending of the light. 3/8

Two pictures of the principle rays from an object interacting with a converging lens. On the left, figure (a) "Converging lens Real image" the three rays travel in straight lines from the top of the arrow labeled "Object" until they encounter the lens. They then change directions and converge at a single point at the top of the upside down arrow labeled "image".

On the right on figure (b) Converging lens virtual image.
A smaller object, closer to the lens has three rays leaving it in straight lines, also changing direction once they encounter the lens. Dotted lines extend backwards from the paths on the side opposite the object, back on the same side as the object and beyond it until they converge at a single point, at the top of a larger arrrow, labeled "Image".

Wait, what? PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE ULTIMATE IN FANTASY GAMES

Picture of a CRT monitor displaying the opening screen from the early 80s computer RPG "Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord"
Screen shows at the top in orange the word "Wizardry" with a sword piercing the letters (point on the left, hilt to the right of the "y") To the lower right of the pommel are the letters "TM"
Below that is some manner of spirit arizing from a blue cauldron heated with white flames. The spirt has an orange chest and face, with white fanges, blue arms and fingers, some manner of white garment on their upper torso trailing into the vapor.
Below is a human, probably male, with wide, white baggy pants, a blue shirt, and a broad white hat. He faces the cauldron and plays a wind instrument.
