No faction of the Democratic Party can declare victory after the midterms. The Republican implosion is so great that all Democratic factions won, from democratic socialists to corporate centrists. 🧵:

Geeky, gay and Latino cosplayer giving this bluesky thing a chance. He/They Lvl. 38
Despite how exhausted I normally get during/after it, I am getting FOMO from seeing DragonCon shenanigans on my social media feeds. Hope all cosplayers attending have a great time!
Can't decide who to play in the next campaign in Theros. Human ranger on a quest to find his lost husband? Barbarian centaur with a heart of gold and trauma amnesia.
Just love getting older. Lifted the vaccum nozzle over head to get a bit of cobweb and pinched something in my shoulder. Still not as embarassing as tweaking my back whilst picking up a dinner plate.
Ooof. Definitely one of those mornings where time drags on. Thought it was almost lunch time and it was only 10am...
A season of D&D over. I'm gonna miss TomTom the Cartographer. My special, nerdy jaguar-man.
Just got home from watching Spider-man: Brand New Day and woah...I thoroughly enjoyed it. And glad I stayed far from speculation, reviews, BTS stuff because I was pleasantly surprised by some of the reveals and plot stuff. Still processing a lot of it though. But dang really good Spidey movie.
Ngl I kind of got an ick from listening to a fiction audiobook where the characters casually used the phrase "L-G-B-T-Q plus" in the middle of a sentence. Perhaps it's my age but I have never heard people use that term casually. In academic or public policy contexts? Sure. Not in casual convos.
Ah yes. Surprise visits. Notoriously well-beloved by people with anxiety.
For no reason whatsoever...have a dancing crab on this Sunday

Today's one of those trying days that reminds me why I hate driving. Some kind of collective braincell today is telling people to just run/cycle into the street while cars are speeding toward them. Ugh
What's up Otter-pop? Got my newest cosplay suit for @flamecon.bsky.social . X-Men 90s era Iceman. Just need to make the emblem and maybe an ice ball prop and I'm set. #gaycosplay #xmen #iceman
Me when I see someone complaining about a heat wave when less than two months ago they were celebrating more hours of sunlight.
Yeeeeah...today's one of those "I'm really not focusing on work today" kind of days.
Saw the new Masters of the Universe today. Ngl I kinda liked it. Would probably have been a better watch-from-the-sofa movie. It may have been because Alison Brie was Evilyn, but Joel McHale would have been a better Skeletor. It did help that I didn't have to see Jared Leto's face.
Alright. New cosplay suit ordered for @flamecon.bsky.social one I've been wanting to do for a while
Reply with ☠️ and I'll give you a letter to list your 4 favorite characters!!! I was given: “H" Harry Kim, Hippolyta, Dr. Hugh Culber, Holga Killgore
So...caught a large spider in my bedroom last night. Not sure but it looks kinda like a Brown recluse. This has resulted in me barely getting 3 hours of sleep.
Tickets purchased for @flamecon.bsky.social . Now to decide what cosplay to take/ debut. #gaycosplay
Before --> After It's summertime down south so bangs begone!
1) A marvel mutant: Iceman 2) A Tolkien Character: Beleg Cúthalion (Turin did him dirty; I could treat him right) 3) A Justice Leaguer: I'd say Nightwing but he is a Titan through and through...so Kyle Raynor, GL. 4) A Star Trek Character: Harry Kim
D’Manda Martini@dmandamartini.bsky.social · 9mo ago1) Colossus 2) Legolas 3) Superman 4) Bones (JJ Abram’s Trek) Taking big swings here; why not go big, right?
What even are comic timelines? Been reading Nightwing and Titans runs and the timeline is screwy. In Nightwing's solo series he's facing off against a clown-god whose minion just knocked down the Titans Tower in Blüdhaven... but then in Titans, the team just used Titans Tower as a rocket ship.
I've been playing D&D for a couple of years now and I think I took too many character creation tips from Tolkien. In that my characters have a tendency to be fairly quiet about themselves and every ounce of backstory / trauma is in the appendicies and involves history from two ages back.
