I write... or I wrote. I've done other things too. Also, a big fan of waffles, comic books and classic movies. A big kid in an oversized body for over 50 years, catcher in the wry. 100% NOT the weirdo conservative doomsday prepper!!!

They've used and abused the Punisher logo for years now. Absolutely no self-awareness that they're the kind of assholes the Punisher can't stand.

This isn’t about politics; it’s about ownership of the scoreboard. When the scoreboard changes owners, the game changes. The sale no one voted on...and why you should care.🔥👇

You just know he went to the beach, looked around and then made a speech about how he doesn't like sand anyway - because it's coarse, rough, irritating and gets everywhere.

@rickgamesnow.bsky.social @themodusfiles.bsky.social A key to Wasteland survival was upcycling: transforming everyday items in to the tools necessary for post-apocalyptic survival.

Here we see an old canning machine, upcycled to resole and repair shoes - although some believe it's Cobblers...

This is appalling, and has no place at a Con - or anywhere else, for that matter.
Seriously. What kind of world are we living in right now? I hope they got kicked out for this.

You know, Doctor Doom probably wouldn't be so feared if his real surname was Von Cuddles.

You're telling me!
Poor Johnny likes to have a Nukashine - two at the very most.
After three he's under the table. After four he's under the host.

I made a horrible decision last night and told chat that I’d do a 24-hr livestream if we raise $100k with these streams by the 19th.

So if that’s an incentive to tune in… there you go.

. @katmabu.bsky.social
promises to do a 24 hr livestream if her campaign reaches $100k in donations. If you want an unapologetically pro-democracy Congress, please consider donating. If you want to see her stream for 24 hours, please donate to the stream specific url.
