Great turnout for the Grizzled Geeks meet-up at @rosecitycc.bsky.social today. 50+ showed up to celebrate the older generations that helped build this we call pop culture. Thanks Darin and Ruth Sutherland for talking to the group.

Hey, if you'll be at @RoseCityComicCon next weekend, consider stopping by our Grizzled Geeks Meet-up on Friday, from 6:45-7:45 pm in rooms F15O-152. We will celebrate the 50-older crowd with some fun discussions, a raffle, and just celebrating being older. Creators, you are certainly welcome too.

A productive Free Comic Book Day haul. Added in some adventure to new places in PDX ... Good stuff. Oh, don't even get me started on the food truck we had. (Chef's kiss)

Just a little hidden bundle I found. Love me some Planet of the Apes action. Couldn't help but notice the main ape is holding a hammer and sycle. A little message there? Also, like the football shoulder pad touch.

Coming to the conclusion that downsizing is necessary and probably healthy. Time to start selling off the comic books and sports cards. I will miss Conan, but it's time.

My sister and I will be hosting a meet-up at #rosecitycomiccon for the older geek/nerd crowd. The Age 50+ Nerds meet-up will be in Room 134 at 11 am on Saturday. We will talk about our fandom, share some info and there's rumor of a raffle, too. So if you're of a "certain age," stop by.
