Working on something that took me to a page on the official White House website, and look at this travesty of a URL. This orange cockfucker can't be gone soon enough, I swear to fucking flying spaghetti monster.
Domino's UK trolling Sony after they announced they will cease production of physical game discs right after deleting 500 digital movies from consumers' collections.

Just doing a little clerical with my online collections and decided to play around with their reporting features. And then I saw something...odd. Why in the hell are the kiddie Marvel Adventures titles gaining so much value?!
My Supergirl collection, as listed in CLZ. For some reason Supergirl & The Legion is included under Legion vol. 5, so it's not present here. But I do have all of those issues, and the recent facsimiles.
It came up in conversation: I think the only ones still around from Batman '66 are 2 Catwomen, 1 Riddler and Robin. Am I missing anyone?
Finished Future Boy by Michael J. Fox. It's a quick easy read that gives an entertaining look into the whirlwind that was his winter of 1985...filming Family Ties and Back to the Future at the same time. Worth a read, especially if you're a fan.
Last night I discovered a new authorized cover of The Raccoons theme song for their 40th anniversary. And now I'm discovering multiple cover versions in between. Pretty wild.
Here was the cover of the NY Post today. Note how they list their greivences with the new crop.

Watching a My Two Dads marathon. Don't think I watched this when it was originally on, but I gotta say--it's pretty good. I've had at least one laugh-out-loud moment per episode. Also, I love the apartment set. Totally my aesthetic--especially that truck chair.
The other day was the 38th anniversary of Ghostbusters II. I didn't get to celebrate because the Knicks and FIFA have been kicking my ass this past month. So celebrate with me now as I present my favorite tracks from the GB2 soundtrack:
Just saw an article titled "10 Near-Perfect 80s Cartoons No One Remembers", and if you think that title is click-bait--you're right. One of their picks? Popples. POPPLES. The cartoon based on the doll you rolled up into a ball like socks.

Always the Jim Lee for me as well, but I also kinda dug her X-Treme variant.
