A meme redraw with a woman at the middle of 6 other girls all hugging her. That collection of girls inclues three aliens and one vampire.
The image is captioned 'yurimaxxing' and then quoted by a friend with the statement 'the type of greed they talk about in the bible'.

It's 2026, and America has fallen into dystopia. The AI-God Cult is confused as to why there is backlash against their Brain-Eating-Plagiarism-Machine God, the Evangelical-God Cult is confused as to why THEIR sons are being sent on a holy war in the Middle East by the MAGA-God Cult's Melting King.

An unopened action figure package. Inside is Jean Luc Picard, but dressed in a gardeners outfit, tan hat and overalls with a blue undershirt, that he wore for a portion of one episode. 

It comes with a gardening tool, scanner, and carrying case the figurine can hold.

My sister got me this for Christmas because she couldn’t believe they made an action figure of β€œDirt Farmer Picard”

The other live performance of this that sticks in my head is when we played an Xmas show at a club in downtown Fort Worth and after we started our set a whole big party of drunken people in Santa costumes came in and danced around for our whole set and begged us to keep playing after we finished πŸ˜‚

Fun fact: one of the few times we played a show that lined up with Christmas and we performed this song live, we were at a second-floor bar in downtown Dallas. When we started, two girls came in, sat at a booth, and proceeded to make out for our entire set. After we finished, they got up and left.

Burn Us Down, by The Crystal Furs from the album Beautiful And True

And "Burn Us Down" is my angry trans rights song, and it will probably not surprise you to learn this will also be becoming a Magica Riot song in the future. 😁 crystalfurs.bandcamp.com/track/burn-u...
