EA just killed Bioware and the next Mass Effect, in development since at least six years. "Around 50 staff had been working on a new Mass Effect that is now canceled." This period is a never-ending nightmare.

In 2012, Robin Williams warned us about Trump’s ownership of pageants like Miss America and Miss Universe, comparing it to Michael Vick owning pet stores: “It’s a catch-and-release program.” We should have listened to Robin.

Apparently, Hasbro has decided to start censoring old book covers that show cleavage. Curse of the Azure Bonds specifically. I assume this one will be one of the next ones. Clyde Caldwell

Stevie Ray Vaughan (October 3, 1954 – August 27, 1990) 🎸 I listen to so much SRV daily that remembering this messed me up all over again. 36 years.

Ooooh, no no no no no. Nope. Fuck this.

NGL, I'm really glad I've been saving gifs for the past 20+ years. Many have been removed from KLIPY.

Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

Holy shit!

Just a reminder that there's a Will Shakespeare miniseries from the heyday of BBC historicals starring Tim Curry as Shakespeare and Ian McShane as Marlowe, and it's on youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpxC...

Tim Curry, a character actor who created a gallery of delicious, very loony villains for stage and screen, including Dr. Frank-N-Furter in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," has died. He was 80. https://to.pbs.org/4y2twIM

A note from Dolly Parton to Eminem in 2022.

Warren Ellis is garbage, and I think Image made a shitty decision to haul him back out into the sunlight to stink up the place again. Once again comics proves it can't just fucking level up.
