doing comics research is so annoying now that certain websites have vanished off the face of the earth. i can't even easily buy physical copies of the books i'm trying to read for research either cuz they aren't currently in print and thus i have to rely on the secondhand market, so it's either...

it's exceptionally frustrating that search engines have gotten so fucking bad. i kinda wanna get a bike but I haven't had a bike in like a million years so I have no idea what I need out of a bike but when you look things up, you get SEO articles with lists of Amazon affiliate links for products
i love being trans so fucking much and this country is getting ripped to pieces trying to take that away from me and they are failing to understand that it will never work. bye bye u cringe ass losers lmao.

Jesus is not watching, Jesus is listening to Slayer while jacking off to the hentai I recommended him.
i wonder what they thought of me yesterday pulling into the drive thru and ordering fried pickles and ice cream and nothing else
ok so i read Spider-Man: Brand New Day, or at least i read that trade they recently released supposedly collecting it and... i've mostly come away very confused. so i've never entirely read this arc as i don't read very much post-One More Day Spider-Man comics for... obvious reasons but i am (1/9)

TODAY I'M TRYING THE VIRAL WEBBERONI PIZZA (aka I was hungry and out and remembered there was a little caesars nearby) it's.... a slightly overpriced little caesars pepperoni pizza with slightly different texture pepperoni. Ours was slightly undercooked, I think pizza/10

so i stumbled upon this manga called X-Day at the secondhand bookstore and seeing that it was a 2-volume thing, found the second online so i could read the whole story. the manga itself is kinda whatever. vibey angsty messy people stuff about 4 people who meet in a school chatroom. however...
been quote posting this too many times so lightning round thread now: DC Next Level Batwoman (1-5) and The Deadman (1,2) are both pretty interesting so far. Batwoman finished its first arc so i'm interested to see where it goes next. Deadman is just weird supernatural stuff I'm prone to liking.
I have been neglecting my "Comics To Read" pile for a few months..... maybe I'll work on that today. I'll update if I find something to talk about within.
Isekai as a genre is exploding in popularity because it appeals to a universal desire to get hit by a truck rather than live in the 21st century.
so i don't remember why exactly I put Tigress Island on my pull list. maybe it was just that i could get nakey variant covers for it idk regardless, an ensemble cast of women surviving on an island some weird rich asshole kidnapped them onto should be like interesting? this was not somehow. like-

monthly mail comic shipment came today and so i'm back at this a bit i absolutely adore everything they have been doing with Moon Knight since 2021. The art is all yummy, the story is so satisfying, i love all the characters the characters who show up, it's just great. the supernatural parts of-

And to cap off my reading for the night, Justice League: Dream Girls is basically about two trans women fighting a weird chaser guy (or at least the villain gives off weird chaser vibes to me) and i'm kinda all here for that. it was a pretty fun read, even if its reference to ongoing DC narrative-

oh my god, Romeo & Juliet and Godzilla is so fucking charming i'm actually pretty familiar with the source material for this one and it's very much a comic adaptation of Romeo & Juliet, complete with dialog directly from the play (sometimes adapted to the context of what's going on) but

[About Universal Monsters: The Phantom of the Opera (#1-4)] while i've seen the musical a couple times (both staged and the movie), i'm not really that knowledgeable of the source material, so i have no idea how this fairs as an adaptation of whatever. it was a nice read regardless though, however,

[about Ultimate Endgame #5 + Ultimate Universe Finale] endings are hard to make completely satisfying but i think i'm mostly satisfied with how this all ended. Not sure if i'm completely satisfied but I think the stories I read got wrapped up pretty alright here (with hooks for future ones obvs)

first up [about Marvel Swimsuit Special (2026) + Marvel Zero (2026) + It's Symbie #1] it's so frustrating that writers definitely still understand who Peter Parker is as a character and can write him in a satisfying way but editorial seem to just refuse to let him have satisfying stories anymore.

y'know, going over it all over to talk about in my therapy appointment was exceptionally tiring lmao it was good to unpack and analyze there just exhausting
I love [harrowing conversations with my mom about her "disagreement" with my being transgender or whatever and her pure refusal to engage with it]. It really makes me feel [like a black hole has torn open inside of me and my entire self is spaghettifying into it].
we need to teach console players that the thing they hate has a name and it's "DRM"
I have a 20-year-old Gamecube that still works like a dream. So up yours, asshole.
