Adjust psych-sender to driftout frequency. Done? Good. Brace yourself, Quester. You phase out in 10 seconds.

So in Vampirella 50: Vampi, an alien from a destroyed world, teams up with a dark, violent orphaned hero with whom she'll sometimes clash, and an ageless mystical hero who avenges wrongdoings against women

Remember this?
NEW (PREMIUM) EPISODE! Together with @cacomixpod.bsky.social, we're diving into the vast expanse of KNIGHTFALL, the Bat-epic that introduced Bane and Azrael to Gotham in the process of laying the Caped Crusader low—a glimpse of the nameless dread mounting at the end of history.

None of these Republicans and most of these Democrats are not all of a sudden “seeing the light on ICE.” They simply understand the worm turning on public opinion and saving face. They will ALL go back to voting for minority brutalization as soon as they can. You can’t keep falling for this.

When I was little my dad emailed (yup) me a video of a hot girl sitting in a tub soaping up her tits etc and then she stands up and has a dick and you're supposed to be like aaah. It wasn't an egg crack moment for me but it was funny to tell my gf about like "this is what men do to each other" lol

The canted perspective really does it for me. Immediately gives a dynamism and dramatic mood
