Over on the bad place, I started a pinned thread inspired by hitting my 65K issue milestone in my comics collection. Now at 85K, I've decided to rescue that thread and bring it over here.

Here are some highlights of my collection:

It enrages me how fucking stupid he is. I can feel myself getting dumber every time I hear him or one of his sycophants speak. I worry that one day I'll pass the threshold and be as dumb as they are--unable to wipe my own ass with two hands and a flashlight.

I said what I said.

Sounds damn decent to me. Rude would've been him saying it WHILE ripping you off.

Yeah, we're great at creating our own enemies. They don't need to be radicalized against America--America already took care of that.

Eradicate those things, your name, and your legacy from the annuls of time. Everything this orange fuck has ever touched needs to be sterilized, scrubbed and disinfected to the highest order.

Trump: "I can create peace with tariffs. I'm using them for a lot of different reasons. If that power was taken away, it would be a terrible terrible day for our country. I would say many of the things I've done could be eradicated ... these are enemies of the country that are pursuing that lawsuit"

Fuck Bibi and fuck the Israeli government. They used Hamas to get the one thing they always wanted: the end of Palestine.

Trump: "I spoke to Bibi Netanyahu just a little while ago. He called, he said, 'I can't believe it. Everybody is liking me now,' meaning him. I said, 'more importantly they are loving Israel again.'"

Which is a damn shame because there are some kickass women creators out there flying under too many radars or being chased out.

Too bad the comic industry never learned the lessons they publish in their pages.

"We took the freedom of speech away."

Repuglicans just admitted to violating the constitution. Remember that. Repeat that. Shove it in their faces like they shat on the carpet. Because they're shitting all over all of us.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

When Slash wants to shred, you sit down and listen.

Jared Wade @jaredwade.bsky.social · 10h

This was one of like 10 times when the larger show just stopped for several minutes so Slash could tell the devil to sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done.

Both of whom, much like the organization they represent, are completely fictional. Another delulu creation from the Orange Canker Sore and bolstered by a cosplaying plastic bitch.

Girlfriend of one of the founders of Antifa? You go digging up graves, heifer? Jump in a time machine? Pull her out of a block of ice with Captain America?

Depends: is it artfully designed? In which case, no limit.

Chris Buchner @cbuchner.bsky.social · 10h

Shit, is Comicsgate still a thing? I haven't heard much from them and hope they died off (the movement, not the actual people).
