I heard someone on a podcast paraphrase Stephen King and say the difference between Sci-Fi and Horror is “explanation”.
When you don’t know what something is, that’s horror. The questioning ‘how can this happen, why is this happening?’ that’s fear. When it’s explained? It’s scary, but not horror

To be fair tho, Hank’s default setting is still ‘asshole’ 😎😄

Screen cap of Henry Rollins telling a story about a time in which he took acid. The hope was the he would loosen up, and stop being such an asshole. After the ordeal he was asked by a bandmate “how was it?” To which he replied “It was incredible, but I think I’m still an asshole”

Honestly just thought they did it as a fashion fad, no idea they served a purpose

I like the recent invention of those star shaped stickers that heal zits
every now and again I see a zoomer with like 5-6 of them on their face and they look like a toddler that got into a sticker sheet in a way that's really endearing

“What they were doing was lawfare, what we’re doing is law, fair. See the difference, cuck?”

He going clothes shopping?

Our pal Toxie contemplating going shopping at his local H&M store. Maybe for a disguise to sneak in to some nefarious fast fashion criminal organization?

They building it up since they plan to flee there later?
These guys can’t come up with an original idea; just because a bunch of nazis fled there in the 40’s doesn’t mean the current regime has to do that, too

So weird to “bring back” Vertigo, and Swamp Thing, but then put Swamp Thing on Black Label 🤪

I’ve heard from multiple people this year that their covid booster beat their ass. I laughed and said “yeah but I’m built different”.
Got my booster at work at 10am, finished the day, rode my bike home.
And then could not get out of bed this morning.

Sucks that if the arc of history does end up bending toward justice, “K-Gnome” can just pull off her Mission Impossible mask and we’ll have no idea who she is. Just disappears down to Sonoma to sell turquoise with the rest of the leathery ladies. What brand do you think she smokes?

Mike Johnson looks like his nose is attached to his glasses

That’s a great question
On the LA Weekly website is has it being published on August 21st. Robin Williams is listed as having died on August 11th. I’m assuming it took some time in those 10days to write the piece. From what little I can google it says Williams’ LBD wasn’t made public until Nov2015

Screen cap from Wikipedia that reads:
“In 2022, Variety (magazine) reported that Robert Downey, Jr. and Shane Black were working together on multiple movie and television projects for Amazon Studios based on the Parker series.”

The second paragraph says:
“An adaptation of Westlake's novel The Ax is currently in production by the South Korean director Park Chan-Wook under the title No Other Choice.” (which isn’t as relevant to my point but I just thought it was cool)

Heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he’s depressed. Says the rich are rabid with greed, and people are struggling. Doctor says, ‘Treatment is simple. The comedian Bill Burr is in town tonight. Go and see him.’ Man bursts into tears. Says, ‘But doctor… I am Bill Burr.’

Bands are always replacing members and continuing on so why hasn’t the guy from Mudhoney filled in for Tom Petty yet?

It was deserving of backlash, it almost felt like “do we need your opinion on this, Hank? Especially so soon? Are you making this about you?”
Which, yeah, probably. But I also enjoy hearing his opinion on things. It’s good to hear someone mess up and see how or where they go from there
