When I reorganized my spice cabinet I put the cumin where the cinnamon had been and someday I’m going to not look closely and make the worst cup of coffee of all time.

So I’m getting into Green Arrow. Is one of his villains really called Onomatopoeia? As a new-ish DC reader I kinda love how unabashedly wacky naming conventions are there. Also the Joshua Williamson Green Arrow is so readable and fun.

Awwww, thank you. I loved these kids with all my heart.
Man, the @christinastrain.bsky.social Generation X is so good. It also has one of my very favorite comics ever with issue 5’s highlight on Eyeboy.

Btw! If you’re reading along with us next week after Gen X 85 make sure to read The Mighty Thor 18-19. The Mighty Thor by Jason Aaron is one of the best marvel books of the last two decades. Big one for Quire fans. What a treat.

Our Generation X Marathon continues to the END of volume 1! The Revolution 6 month gap sure does wreck this book, but not worse than Warren Ellis' edgy 00's nihilism. There is fun to be had though! A great big hug from Monet and Jubilee and we see Jono with his shirt off! Check it out! #xspoilers

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth:

“ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king.

This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

The rest of the world should absolutely boycott the World Cup and boycott the Olympics. At minimum.

I hope Democratic senators and congressmen understand, out of pure lizard-brain self-interest if moral decency happens to be unavailable, what is at stake for them if they don't handle this the right way. This is a true "If not now, when?" moment.

See, they really should've followed through on Husk/Chamber not least because then we'd have avoided the monstrosity of Husk/Angel.
Our Generation X Marathon continues as we get the REAL Monet. She's meaner, smarter and has WAY more sexual tension with Jubilee than before! Also Paige and Jono's will-they/won't-they might drive one of our hosts insane! Check it out! #xspoilers #xmen

Warren Ellis’ Emma Frost after Lobdell, Hama, and Faerber gave me such nasty whiplash I threw out my back. Yuckaroonie

I don’t usually mess with variant covers, but the @pyroowdaily.bsky.social Cyclops, the Joëlle Jones Moonstar and this DOPE incentive for Feral (which feels like it’ll be pricey, but GOD I want it.)
