Did I have Ms. Rachel taking on Obama on my bingo card in 2026?

No, I did not.

Dear @barackobama,

I saw in your statement you said “Israeli families” & “the people of Gaza.”

Palestinians have families, too.

This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.

I’ve sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.

Love,
Ms Rachel

"We haven't even seen Roland yet. This is a 90 minute movie based on a SEVEN book saga, why is the kid back in his room looking at his drawings AGAIN??"

Hyper Mega Bummer Boy @neveronbrand.bsky.social · 1d

To be clear, being high doesn't make every movie better for me. When it first came out, I was a mild defender of The Dark Tower movie. Recently tried to watch that stoned, and boy what a glacial piece of shit.

Jeremy, how stoned were you last night?
Well, I watched Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and thought it was so cool it made me tear up.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Because of woke.

Sometimes I think about how frogs serve now as inextricable iconography for both sides in these Balkanized United States and I blame the Hadron Collider for shifting us into this fucking Babar/Berenstain Bears-ass timeline.

Also, you can tell Robert Englund is having the absolute time of his life and I love that for him.

It's not exactly good, but I find it really difficult to shake the experience of seeing it in a packed and raucous house on opening night. I respect that it refuses to take itself seriously and it has some strong surreal imagery in the nightmare sequences.

Was excited to realize Little Nightmares III came out today, which was immediately dashed when I learned that the co-op is online only. Absolute horseshit. Seems like the perfect kind of game for couch co-op.

This is the exact reason I'm semi-relieved it didn't go to 47. As meaningless as it ultimately is, it does at least mean not EVERYONE out there will cower to that motherfucker. That and and the fact that we know it hurt him personally are the only positives here.

I think the bruises from my last playthrough attempt are still healing. Modern games have made me soft.

Yeah, I appreciate the Wild Wild West ass aesthetic of the Hearts of Steel line, but that Starscream alt mode is wack as hell. They could've put a LITTLE more effort into making it look like a biplane or something.

Taking Paige to Baltimore ComicCon. She and I are working on cosplay costumes and this is easily the most effort I've put into something like this. I may or may not have written several paragraphs of backstory for my character.
