Going light this #BandcampFriday because the first quarter of 2026 has been *really* rough. Still, there's good music to celebrate and damn if that doesn't brighten my day! 1/5

Aw man! I was all set up to watch a Timm Verse Two-fer with “On Leather Wings”and “Destroyer”, only for my JLU disc to have like a billion scratches on it and be unwatchable. Which pisses me off to no end because I take care of my media.

Recently finished the “All Star Western” Omnibus collecting Palmiotti and Gray’s (and Moritat’s) run as part of the New 52.

It has its ups and downs, but I was taken with it as kinda the last Jonah Hex story,

It is 2020 and I’ve just bought a smart home hub to fix my problems.

It is 2020 and I’ve just bought four more smart home hubs to fix my problems.

Everything coming out of big tech in the last decade's been pure hype: virtual reality, blockchain, and now AI. All the stuff that was good, from social media to office suites, have suffered enshitification. Has any other industry got things wrong so much, for so long?
