It takes a lot to impress Gov. Teddy Roosevelt.

Seeing a bunch of people with powers fight Neo-Confederates in power armor is one of them :)

Too many people delight in casual cruelty these days, mainly so *they* feel smug and superior.

Slowly putting this project together!

This will be pitched around once issue 1 is 100% done (might be a long time before I pitch again after this) or bring it straight to crowdfunding.

I just realized something semi-amusing/depressing.

This will be the third year in a row I go to California for vacation BUT it is the first time in those three years where I do NOT go to Disneyland.

But it's okay, I'll be at SDCC! :D

While MCU Captain American is a fellow "boy from Brooklyn", comics canon Cap was born in Manhattan. However, he has called Brooklyn home in the comics for a VERY long time. In the 70s, he lived in now fancy Brooklyn Heights and currently has an apartment/base in more industrial Red Hook

This evening, on my commute home, I read "Daredevil: Black Armor" written by D.G. Chichester and pencils by my buddy @nethodiaz.bsky.social!
It's a really fun read, with great art, and at 4 issues long is a nice breezy read!
Plus Matt punches Nazis, so BONUS POINTS!
Check it out!

really one of the strangest media cycles in history, where mainstream media actively hid the fact that the columbine killers were popular upper class preppy kids with full on neo-nazi ideologies and instead pretended they were victims of bullying

In case anyone needs to hear this right now.

Escapism is OKAY. I know every day lately brings another insane headline, but you HAVE to rest your mind.

The human brain wasn't meant to process the overload of information we're used to now.

DO NOT feel guilty for protecting your peace. Ever.

There are 7 candidates in the Senate Democratic primary in Maine. 5 of those candidates are neither Nazis nor pushing 80. For some reason American leftists quickly coalesced on one - the one with Nazi friends and Nazi tattoos.

For the many Platner fans here, Peters is a white supremacist, Holocast denying / antisemetic, virulently anti-trans anti-gay right-wing influencer. There's no lack of people making similar points that Platner could be reading and promoting who are not nazis.

My pinned tweet through Presidents of both parties: Sen. Leahy reminds an appointee that federal employees swear an oath to the Constitution, not of personal loyalty to any one man or woman.

All true but it's frustrating that we might have been spared a lot of this but for the Lancet publishing Andrew Wakefield's fraudulent study in 1998

But sure, it's the fault of the Dems /s

The blame is SOLELY on Trump and the GOP.

Definitely.

I wonder what lies they tell themselves to rationalize their bigotry and hypocrisy.

So they're hypocrites who keep getting away with it :(

01.03.2026 00:11 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

yep.

What frustrates me is that so much of this bigotry comes from people who should know freaking better and who would be throwing a fit if someone said the things they say about Jews towards any other group

01.03.2026 00:08 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yep, they really eagerly slipped off the masks.

Yeah really what has happened is that in a lot of history there was immense anti-Jewish hatred. Then the Holocaust happened and people were shamed into STFUing for a couple generations. Now it’s back in style.

28.02.2026 23:44 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 1 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Yep, and too many "good people" are silent in the face of this

"There have been rumors," he says. Well, if there have been RUMORS, that's all I need. I'm totally convinced, yessir.

Goddammit, I AM NOT EVEN JEWISH, and I hate this shit. I absolutely would not have predicted this bizarre tide of Jew-hate. I am getting the most unpleasant education.
