All typos due to a mix of low vision and hubris.
RNG Vault 347/863 (6/4/23) is for when I lucked into a second Black Series Royal Guard ‘cause an order went missing, was replaced, and then showed up later (for the person getting it for me).

Luckily you can shift the cloaks so they open on either side.

Hot tip everyone - if you’re wondering whether all the posts today are Celebrating A Victory or Celebrating Victory, it’s the first one. No clarification necessary.

The people of Minnesota did that. Not Schumer and Jeffries, not Walz and Frey, not the standard-bearers of decorum. The People.

With much respect to the people who have posted "Parable of the Sower", I give you a different take on surviving disasters as a Minnesotan community: @naomikritzer.bsky.social's The Year Without Sunshine

Minnesotans have all "studied the playbook."

(Please quote repost with your playbook, Minnesota. Have at it.)

Greg Bovino won’t see all your posts calling him a tiny little man running away with his tail between his legs, but I will, and every time I see one I’ll laugh and laugh and laugh some more.

Anyone have any hot tips on which rail Bovino is getting ridden out of town on? I mean, I’km assuming Blue Line…

Every day on Bluesky, it’s a privilege to be able to see people posting about The Dumbest Fucking Thing Ever Put On Paper.

(Today, of course, it’s “by rejecting Harry Potter the kids are rejecting liberalism”, which, which is an absolute banger of idiocy)

With Noem seemingly about to be the scapegoat and even the most addled Dem senators coming out against DHS funding, beware.

There’s nothing anyone with power loves more than doing just BARELY enough make you think they’ve “fixed it” so you’ll stop being mad at them.

GOT (Official): TMNT X Godzilla!

We’ve talked about these. They’re cool. So I had to get out the plastic building assortment.

I need something physical to do for the ground with these, though. Everything I try digitally suuuuucks. Maybe make some printable tiles.

I still wish the nuclear block here were more transparent. I’d love to know if a post is blocked because I blocked a person or the poster blocked the quoter or the replier got blocked by the OP.

(And then if it’s someone I blocked, the option to see it anyway just to remind myself why.)

I don’t know why it’s hard for so many of you to make this distinction.

They’re a law enforcement agency that claims the right to kill you if you try to find out who they are or record what they’re doing.

Calling them “secret police” is just unhelpful escalation.

RNG Vault #250/863, from back on 12/22/23, is from when I got a dirt-cheap store exclusive Old Samoa Joe because the only Joe I had was the Young Joe from the TNA Impact line. Although I think they’re both wearing the same shorts.

The only thing worse than right-wing Twitter “intellectuals” being a giant circle-jerk in a hot tub filled with their own piss, and then when they finish more piss comes out, and the piss level keeps rising, is that they’ve also been informing public policy for a decade.

That Atlantic article about fascism may be peak Atlantic (derogatory).
January 25, 2026 at 8:23 PM
OK, the absolute weirdest fucking thing about all this, by a long shot, is hearing about / seeing a viral video of righteous anger and then a day later learning it’s someone from a thing you know.

It’s happened TWICE today.
bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne... @bringmethenews Arik Cannon, the owner of local wrestling promotion F1rst Wrestling – for which Nur-D has performed – claimed that he was "gassed, shot with rubber bullets and/or pepper balls, tackled, all while his back was turned."
Video shows local rapper Nur-D being aggressively detained by federal agents
He is heard screaming: "You're gonna kill me. That's what you want?"

GOT: Bulbasaur!

So the actual got is the little highlighted guy with his Vine Whip vines out, a first somehow for the collection.

But also it’s finally time to show off the (desperately in need of a cleanup) Bulbashelf, containing nearly three decades of Bulbasauri.

Watching our people step up to protect each other is as inspiring yet frustrating as those “employees donates time off to co-worker with cancer” stories.

It’s great, but also we could/should/did set up a system to handle this shit and if it weren’t an utter failure this wouldn’t be necessary.
January 25, 2026 at 4:09 PM
Not to dunk on this, because it’s understandable, but this is how media literacy fails happen. They saw their own feelings reflected in the two most prominent elements of the page (the photo, NOT AGAIN) and missed, for example, that the NOT AGAIN refers to “Minnesota Burning”, not the shooting.
Hell froze over! NY Post printed the truth!

I’m under no illusions about the true nature of any of the heavily militarized white supremacists groups that fall under the “law enforcement” umbrella but I still think there’d be benefits to one of them being ordered to stop another one of them.
January 24, 2026 at 11:42 PM
The only statements I want to hear from any elected is one informing me of something they’ve just done about this.

I don’t give any shits if you just agree with me that this is bad.

Oh, also, that something should not be imploring, asking, begging, or otherwise petitioning Trump. Thanks.

I’m not… mad, exactly, when I see the “these seven Democrats voted to fund this murder” posts today.

But somehow, there are always enough Democrats, every time, and it’s not always the same Democrats, and its a little game they play with you to keep from getting too mad at all of them.
January 24, 2026 at 6:43 PM
I’ll tell you one thing. I’d be complaining a LOT more about how cold it is in the lower level of the house where all the fun stuff is if a white supremacist militia weren’t laying siege to my city and terrorizing its residents.

RNG Vault 146/859 is one of those partially intentional and mostly unintentional pretty good composites fromt he early days (4/30/23).

One of my earliest experiments in trying to bring plants into the foreground, which seems basic and is basic but I was pre-basic.

Literally weeks ago I couldn’t have predicted I’d be spending today participating in a general strike and deciding how to split up my new bonus mutual aid budget (1:1 match with toy purchases) but here we are, I guess.

Thanks, concerted racist effort to ruin lives for no other reason!
