There’s a laundry list of things republicans do that disgust me and I despise and theres always incredulous shock and anger from dems and liberals that I won’t accept those things from them either.

The Dems have decided to go full transphobic for the last push of the midterms despite all math showing that level of mask off actually hurts even republicans and now Bluesky has gone full Twitter with liberals spouting 1930’s Germany rhetoric defending it. So that’s fun.

Driving thoughts: Saw several new chain/strip mall places being built and thought of the 1-2 dozen minimum wage jobs that’ll create near the cheaply built half-mil dollar house subdivision they bulldozed the horse barns and corn fields for. Which those jobs won’t pay enough to live in the luxury

Apartments that are being built across town. It also won’t cover rent in any of the homes or apartments in the old subdivision that has signs popping up in yards against opening a homeless shelter because think of the children. There’s almost no jobs that aren’t retail or service work while

Homes are $400K+ and rent is $2k on average and there’s no public transportation to speak of. This seems incredibly unsustainable.

I really wish when new Star Wars stuff comes out they’d tell you what you need to have watched. There’s been a few times where things have been surprise live action sequels to a cartoon I did not watch, don’t know who anyone is or why it’s important and they are not explaining though text or subtext

Even though I knew EA was gonna do it, still really bummed about the BioWare news. I’ve spent so many hours of my life playing those games and this just sucks.

For most of America’s history the “legal” process for immigration was: 1. Get on boat. 2. Don’t shit yourself to death from dysentery. 3. Get off boat. “Securing the border” just means keeping POC out.

Finally watched The Mandalorian Grogu and had so much fun. Didn’t know they had done stop motion for it and the second I saw it I lit up. God I missed seeing sci-fi movies with stop motion in them.

The only Walking Dead spin off I wanted was them turning that abandoned Ren faire from that 1 episode into the New Kingdom centered around Ezekiel and Jerry.

When playing rpgs I get really annoyed sometimes at how they handle anything considered ‘adult content’. It feels like most of the time they’re embarrassed it’s included and do weird, self-censoring things that are just distracting and immersion breaking so why did you even bother?

When I was a child in the 90’s all the authority figures were real big on: You treat everyone with common courtesy and respect regardless of race, religion or orientation and you will be judged upon your treatment of them. So I have nothing for contempt for any politician who caves on trans rights.

I have such a visceral response to people being pretentious. It’s not that you didn’t like something, that’s fine, feel free to tell me why. It’s that you’re being an ass about it.

Something I really loved about Brand New Day was how it felt like a comic book world/story. Other characters popped up, we were told just enough information for the context of this story and if you were curious you can go watch their movies/shows later just like the comics.

How do Spider-Man and Frank know each other? Ran into each other on Staten Island. Why is Banner human and teaching? Shows off inhibitor. Why don’t people remember Peter? A spell was cast to keep his loved ones safe. What’s he been doing without everyone? Montage of Spider-Man covers. 👌

I think if I got to head up a marvel book I’d want to do a really B-movie monster focused version. The spider headed version of spider-man running around like a cryptid. Hidden skrulls walk amung us. Cults and slumbering ancient alien gods (Asgardians). SHIELD are the mysterious g-men.

Please be vocal about not using AI. We have to normalize it. No "I'm not going to say that because it should be assumed. I'm not going to give them this". We don't have time for that shit ideological shit right now. NOW is the time to capitalize on waning favorability. Ppl want human made

While I use Letterbox to keep track of all the movies I’ve seen for my own sake I swear the people who write reviews on there have to be the most pretentious, miserable, insufferable people on the planet. Imagine being upset that The Bluff didn’t have deeper character development or romance.

I don’t know why anyone is surprised that Jefferies stands for nothing. He already went on tv and gave his “There’s nothing we can do” speech and has gotten involved in every election to work against anyone promising to do more than say platitudes.

Some days I do wish people remembered they can keep their asshole/shitty takes to themselves. I’m not trying to change anyone I just find constantly hearing them exhausting.

I’d like a little comics miniseries about the Hell’s Kitchen, Heroes for Hire, Spider-man(s) relationships to each other. It feels like them in particular should be bumping into each other all the time. Not like a big threat, just a bunch of mini stories and interactions that make the world lived in

Recognition post for my boy Thane who was a very good boy getting his check up and updated vaccines this weekend. I was told he has very good teeth, which I already knew from all the bite marks on my arms.

I don’t know what it says about me that every time I get to play a ttrpg or just rpgs in general I always just make a street level superhero or shonen anime secondary character. Like yeah, I could play as the Demi-god reality warping wizard or Kuwabara and I pick Kuwabara 11/10 times.

Just saw a TikTok of a girl claiming millennials don’t understand how hard the economy is for Gen Z in where she describes all the things millennials have been struggling about and how her $40k she saved just from her social media isn’t enough for a down payment on a house. *eye twitches*

I get so annoyed when I see a review that is basically: “I hate burgers and think they’re low-brow, so I went to a burger place and am mad I got server a burger I ordered. It’s misogynistic to have cheese on a cheeseburger.” What a miserable existence.

Please blow up the public comment (included below): BREAKING NEWS (7/15) — The administration wants to destroy Chaco Canyon without consulting Tribal Nations. It’s an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development

Had one of those weekends where you knock out a ton of those annoying little tasks like: Take the lone bungee cord from the closet and put it in the car trunk. Pull out the entertainment center to swap out the HDMI cable the cat chewed on. Dig out a storage bin to put 1 thing in then put it back.

Supergirl was really good, got me right in the feels a few times. Unfortunately had to yell at some idiots who don’t know how to act in public but otherwise good times.

I think if you can lay off 1,600 employees and still be in business worth billions? You’re too big to be legally allowed to exist as you are.

I’m pretty sure if a member of Congress is missing that’s a matter of national security that should be resolved immediately but also we don’t have any real adults in positions of authority in this joke of a country.

Joining the library dnd game as a break from being the forever dm. *makes a human champion fighter* What? No I’m not up to anything. *puts on You Say Run*

Something so funny about the World Cup is that for both Americans and visitors that there’s soooo much they’ve been told to dislike or hate but now that they’re getting to see it up close, get hands on, experience stuff it’s just thousands of people going: Oooohhh hell yeah this is great!!
