I'm glad to hear that. I'm finishing up Luke Cage s2 now, and the Power Man and Iron Fist: Heroes for Hire aesthetic is awesome.

The Netflix version of Iron Fist is kind of weak on his own but somehow really shines as a sidekick for Luke Cage.

i met some piiis yesterday





they were about the size of my thumb, had melodic little voices, and after a feed they would stand on their head so their anus was pointing straight up in the air and poo vertically with impressive force so that it arced gracefully up and out of the nest. i had no idea cup-nesting birds do this but apparently most of them do and it is magnificent, it really brought home to me the glory and power of the lord

If you think about the type of person who likes Jack Ryan it's actually the worst time to make one about Russia.

it seems to be that either chicks turn upside down and catapult poop out of the nest or the parent birds eat it, both are touching and beautiful miracles of life

You're not my Ruthie!
You're not my Debbie!
You're not my Sherry!

quote:

A second myth, far more eagerly believed, told of the existence (Jacqueline Simpson and Jennifer Westwood record) “of a mysterious, luck-bringing Queen Rat”:

This was a supernatural creature whose true appearance was that of a rat; she would follow the toshers about, invisibly, as they worked, and when she saw one that she fancied she would turn into a sexy-looking woman and accost him. If he gave her a night to remember, she would give him luck in his work; he would be sure to find plenty of money and valuables. He would not necessarily guess who she was, for though the Queen Rat did have certain peculiarities in her human form (her eyes reflected light like an animal’s, and she had claws on her toes), he probably would not notice them while making love in some dark corner. But if he did suspect, and talked about her, his luck would change at once; he might well drown, or meet with some horrible accident.

Don't do what YouTube tells you. Don't buy expensive chemicals to halt it, don't buy a fedora/trilby an go all in for the 1920s "traditional gentleman" fashion.

Just shave everything off and grow a beard.

worst haircut i think i ever saw was a man selling suits at a dillards who was balding with a pony tail, but instead of just shaving the top of his head he had the like dozen or so strands of hair of where his hairline probably originally was at slicked back and collected into the pony tail

A local computer store had a guy who gelled the hair from the sides up and then 45 degrees back to cover his whole pate but then he'd sweat lugging the PCs from the basement and the gel would start melting and his hair would open up like unto the wings of a bird so people called him Asterix.

very bigly looking forward to the no doubt highly respectful tribute that our stable genius president will perform for the victims of nine-eleven, aka the worst atrocity to ever be committed on this planet. i am sure it will not turn into another farce like every other thing that he has done. maybe he will stare at the sun again.
