War Machine Quasar Starfox Crystal Quicksilver Namor Moondragon An ad hoc Avengers reserves team thrown together for some crisis. Just absolutely rancid vibes, while War Machine tries to keep them on track and Quasar regrets being there.

There’s something really delightful about psychotic nerd rage Steve Ditko-era Peter Parker making a cameo in early Fantastic Four. Just the worst weird little guy.

In today’s hellscape news: Congress established the ATRC in 1996, to conduct rapid removal hearings for aliens with ties to terrorism. It had never been used; there’s serious concerns around due process and evidence. It existed only as a dead footnote. Until the Trump DOJ filed with it this week.
Alien Terrorist Removal Court holds its first-ever hearing after 30 years
Congress created the Alien Terrorist Removal Court in 1996 to make it easier for the Justice Department to use classified evidence to deport people from U.S. soil.

Rewatched the episode, and props to the X-Men 97 crew for referencing extremely specific designs from Fatal Attractions for a handful of background shots
Extremely minor X-Men ‘97 spoiler (a non-speaking background cameo): Rusty Collins (the boy with the codename “Firefist” and a girlfriend he literally cannot touch), my friend, that haircut is not helping you beat the gay allegations.
Why is Angel making that face? Wrong answers only. (Peeved-looking Angel/Warren Worthington III, from AwesomeCon ‘26.)
Nirvana is wildly overrated, and they’re only as lauded as they are because of the bullshit mystique around Cobain, a mediocre songwriter and guitarist. Most of their direct contemporaries - Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, STP, Melvins etc. - were better.
Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.

Dark Sun, as a setting, is so incredibly formative for me, as a D&D player, so screaming crying throwing up calling on the Sorcerer-Kings etc
D&D reveals long-awaited Dark Sun revamp, and it's an 18+ gore-fest
It's so graphic that D&D lawyers insist the book is shrink-wrapped

“See ya, Ben. See ya, Mr. Fantastic. See ya, Sue. Get bent, Johnny.” -Peter Parker, the Amazing Spider-Man/Bombastic Bagman Happy Spider-Man Day.
I can’t wait to see the all the erotic fanart that will be made if Tom Holland and Joseph Quinn are put together in a MCU movie.
BROKE: going to a Spider-Man movie dressed as Spider-Man, like some basic twink Spider-Man cosplayer WOKE: going to a Spider-Man movie dressed as Johnny Storm, and periodically yelling, “Take off your pants!” at the screen
Oi, happy Spider-Man Day or whatever (Spider-Punk at last year’s FlameCon)
