GM: it’s like a tricorder.

Me: no, it’s a do-or-do-not-corder. There is no try.
I wonder what the breakdown of the proportion of Patreon, Substack, and Medium messages that are "that was interesting", "maybe the next one", and "why did I subscribe to this jackass?"

Thankfully, unsub options tend to be very convenient.

The Haslab stuff is just wild. This just seems a bit greedy. Five action figures and two light cycles for $240? How much was Jabba’s party barge?
"After a little over six weeks of availability, the “Tron: Heroes of the Grid” set failed to reach the minimum number of backers to go into production. It’s dead."
"The Tron set was released as a “Haslab” project, a special section of Hasbro for more ambitious, expensive projects."

Sorry, Syd Mead.

I hate how perfect bound books and adventures can't be scanned on a standard bookshelf. Makes it harder to find the one you want and makes the bookself look messy.

So I make these boxed sets for my loose RPG stuff. Each holds 3 inches of 8.5x11 books (I make the labels myself).

Sex cardigan? I thought they shut that place down.
Yeah, well I'll have the last laugh when you see me in my matching bubblegum pink poncho and headband!

I... I was lied to!
* You know how Van Halen had a contract rider demanding bowls of M&Ms with the brown ones removed?

They later claimed that was all a test to make sure venues were reading their contracts. Clever!

BUT WAIT, that claim itself is actually false. I fact-checked it.

Fierce nipple pierce, you got me sprung with your tongue ring

The Star Wars talk reminds me that the Epic collection of the Marvel books is OOP and people are asking three digits for a reasonably well done reprint, which just fills me with rage. This should be an evergreen product!

With all the talk and fighting over “recommended reading/watch orders” and pressure to consume media in very prescribed ways, I feel we’ve lost a chaotic shared fandom experience and nerd conversation topic.

So, what series did you encounter out of order? Or in the weirdest possible order?

BLASTER is the sequel to ROBOTRON 2084 which is the sequel to DEFENDER and they all have completely different gameplay design (other than "shoot enemies for score")

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

I am so glad I never named my band Sex Cardigan. This weekend would have been terrible for SEO.
