The fake Michael Bertrand
@fruvous73.bsky.social
A very strange man who writes things. VFS alum (Writing for TV and Film program), thinker, philosopher, comedy writer, academically gifted, socially retarded, lover of long lists of adjectives, and the only rationalist materialist mystic poet in the world.
And caution isn't a choice.

I had every issue of this when I was a kid in the 80's. I read it over and over because by the time I finished the final volume, the first one seemed new to me again.

As a result, I know a lot of Marvel trivia.... as long as there's no questions about stuff after around 1990. :P

I haven't but only due to poverty. :P

Can someone translate this into Canadian for me? :)

0. Forgive yourself for not playing everything you buy. Do not feel guilty about it. Recognize that buying more than you can handle is a consumerist trap that happens when the pleasure of acquiring things outpaces their utility. Repeat : I am never going to read/play/watch this. Let it go.

Because.... you're really not supposed to kill people.

His light sentence is inexcusable tho.

I ponder just how complicated an issue species prejudice or "speciesism" would be.

I mean, we go crazy about members of our own species who just have different melanin levels.

And they weren't before they went to the White House.

Trump is not just insane, he's also a carrier.

Dunno what a Bk is but I love sorting things too.

Then VOLTRON appears! And he brought two ANGELS from Neon Genesis Evangelion! And who's that? It's the LUCK DRAGON from Neverending Story! And he brought FIN FANG FOOM and SMAUG! And then...

It ain't gonna work. The military hates him, and you can't have fascism if you don't control the military.

And try to hear what people are really saying.

Sometimes the worst things are said by people who are in a lot of pain and lashing out.

Maybe they need help.

I learned what bastards they were when I was living in Portland, OR in the 90's.

But now I have a $25 Starbucks gift card.

So I feel conflicted.

I'm very sound sensitive myself and I HATE ANY SUDDEN LOUDNESS. Why can't they make a TV that evens that shit out? Call it volume compression. A computer chip could do that in realtime without any lag.

DO NOT STARTLE ME WITH LOUDNESS.

It makes me a very snarly fox. :P
