Guys, you realize how fucking embarrassing it is for you to report this with a straight face as if he's not spewing absolute nonsense?

FYI: Today's issue of SAVAGE DRAGON ships with three different covers. The version with retro-style trade dress features an "uncensored" version of one page, whereas the other two versions are a bit tamer. The actual story content of the page remains unchanged in all three.

Pretty shitty that @mlb.com , @jomboymedia.bsky.social and a few others have already put out posts/stories framing Contreras as the aggressor rather than racist Nats pitcher Cade Cavalli.

...WAIT. You mean THIS GUY is a racist? Knock me over with a feather.

One of my favorite-ever bits that didn't make it into the final interview.

Found this old VHS tape around. Anybody know if it's rare?

It’s fucking INFURIATING that Bill Kristol is doing more to call out Trump than the Democrats in Congress.

"We can fight to stop the ballroom. If this means leaving the area as a
destruction site for the rest of Trump's presidency, so be it.
Let its ugliness exemplify the Trump era. Let its rubble symbolize what he's tried to do to the American republic."

What the fuck is up, Denny's?

A neon sign at Denny's that says "breakfast" is positioned in a strange way relative to the overhead lights, which causes its shadow to say "Breast."

Side note unrelated to Erin’s point: did you know that one of the redshirts who got killed at Terminus to prove the bad guys were a Very Serious Threat was Robin Lord Taylor, who would go on to do GREAT work on Gotham almost immediately after?

My Instagram feed today is randomly full of 9/11 jokes. I swear to God I didn’t search for any of these. The algorithm is JUST DOING THIS.

Finally getting my movies and music onto a plex server, and it’s really funny to watch my very random music collection load slowly into place. With an appearance by @alliegoertz.bsky.social of course.

Apple: We no longer support your old iMac, which still works just fine. Me: ok then.

Here, I found it. Felt bad leaving it unresolved.

Russ Burlingame@russburlingame· Mar 13

This was a very cool find. Managed to snag it for under $25 on eBay and it seems to exist NOWHERE online. Really great, driving early version of “The Drop.”

Well, at least they now seemingly recognize that their longstanding policy of misleading people as to what a “purchase” is, is bad.

Russ Burlingame@russburlingame· Mar 2

This one is for-sure happening now.

There’s always that point where things turn over from curiosity into research.

I love this quote from @marcguggenheim.bsky.social, explaining why there's so much more love for the first season of #LegendsOfTomorrow these days than there was during its run.

The truth is, if you go back and rewatch that two-hour pilot of Legends, I think you'll see that the seventies bar fight to “Love Will Keep Us Together” was a moment when you saw in the very first two hours, what the show would ultimately become. I think if we had a normal pause-and-reflect period between the pilot and the next episode, we would've said, “Oh, that's where the show lives! Let's tack towards that.”
In fact, I do remember sitting in the editing room with Greg, watching the rough cut of the two-hour pilot, and afterwards I turned to him. I was like, “We've been talking about the show all wrong. We've been talking about this show as our version of The Avengers, but the truth is it's our version of Guardians of the Galaxy.”
The problem is by that point, the ship had very much sailed. We were committed to a certain tone, and we were committed to a certain storyline, and we didn't have the time—or even the ability – to make a major course-correction until the end of the first season.
But now, because Legends, had a second life on Netflix, people came to the show without any preconceived notions. That's why they are able to just enjoy season one, purely on its own merits. I don't think it's a bad season of television. I've been involved with bad seasons of television, and I don't think it's a bad season of television by any means.
To me, it's just a show that didn't know what it wanted to be yet.

Got sucked into a little research rabbit hole, and apparently 737 4th Avenue in Brooklyn is where Hungry Hamed's used to be. It was bought up by Dunkin' and existed in that state for a while, but now appears to be a mixed-use residential building. Sadly I can't find a 1990ish photo of the place.
