My favorite thing about capitalism is that when one sector funded by billionaires crashes, the government bails them out, and the regular, average taxpayer has to pay for it.

Really excited to have my taxes go to the bailout of the AI crash.

We need italics on here for something for sarcasm.

So @nathanielpiha.bsky.social suggested we frame some of the @eccomics.bsky.social @oni-press.bsky.social BLOOD TYPE covers. Great idea! They are all beautiful but we did a set of the gorgeous @patriciamartinn.bsky.social alternates and just look how nice they look together 🩸

There have been a lot of big budget movies filmed in my city, but is this the only one that takes place in it.

A movie that took local lore and legend about a haunted road and its connection to the Underground Railroad and completely botched the story, which was written by someone who lives here.

By the way, it's National Editor Appreciation Day.

Nobody ever reads a great article and thinks, "Dang, that was some tight editing." But editing is a big part of how it got to be great.

So writers, if you've ever worked with a good editor, shout 'em out.

This may be a bit more common knowledge, but regardless, useless.

These games all take place or feature Capcom's Metro City:

Final Fight
Street Fighter
Captain Commando

The two men in the opening of Street Fighter 2 are Scott and Max.

Thread-ish...
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Welcome to 2025. The Chicago Bears are 8-3 and I threw out my back playing catch with my son.

We are all truly heroes.

Don’t forget why a lot of these Right Wing extremist accounts exist in the first place. It is very lucrative. If you are in a poor country it is EXTREMELY easy to setup a couple of right wing propaganda accounts and make a very healthy living.

Someone please call Mrs. Chicago Bears to see if she can find D'Andre Swift. I fear he has gone missing.

Have you seen this boy?

I'd like to start a petition to rename Bad Ass Billy Gunn to Tush Push Billy Gunn.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

You know what I hate about the term "bi-weekly?" It can mean twice a week OR every two weeks. It's confusing. Same goes for bi-monthly.

Regardless, I Don't Know What To Do With Mat Elfring comes out every two weeks on Tuesdays. I don't have energy for a weekly show right now that's THIS popular.
New episode on Tuesday! (We're bi-weekly. I'm so busy!)

Here's a taste of what's going to happen. @haynerland.com gets pranked by a fake politician who might not be fake at all!

Also, I answer fan mail!

If younger people ask you about burning CDs, please tell them you were literally burning CDs to keep evil beings trapped in the woods.

To add to this new lore,
CD-R=Compact Disc Ritual
CD-RW=Compact Disc Ritual Witches/Warlocks.
My favorite piece of content today.

We already know how I feel about LinkedIn.
However, how do I ban messages like this from my life.

Also, I wasn't looking to make a Shopify account for my award-winning podcast @i-dontknowwhattodo.bsky.social, but now I am! Thanks Arthur!
