Leftist punk-ass CSPAM poster. Kicking down the door and here to help.

Max-level devops just below the rich decision makers. Lower class, low class, punches above weight class; disallows false modesty.

a something awful forum account's worth of dollars. I hope we get more unique donors and more people not worrying about food

[thinking very hard voice] is disability bourgeois?
a twitter post from user NLH2224 that reads "And let’s say that you finally get all the proletariat together, internationally form and international DOTP, what’s stopping them from exercising leverage of disabled people who by definition can’t be proletariat?"

This got deleted before I finished posting, so... screenshot
A screenshot of a post from Alice Jane Grimm (she/her) on bluesky (@alice-j-grimm.bsky.social): "republicans want to make this guy spend $12,000 more per year on healthcare Raise your hand if you hand $12k laying around This is why our government is shutdown, Democrats won't approve any more funding until Republicans agree to put the healthcare money back" The quoted post she cites here states, in part, that the quoted poster is on a BlueCross/BlueShield bronze plan that will go "from $333 (2025) to $2300 in 2026." There's what appears to be a Word document showing this change and referencing the possibility of a Marketplace application update. I, the alt text writer, am sorry that I can't capture the full volume of text in this image because it is way over the character limit. This is the best I can do as a summary.

no matter how bad my drawings get, I still like ‘em
A crude pen drawing on lined Office Depot paper. Cursive “to whom it may concern” at the top, capitalized incorrectly; a star headed humanoid wears a tshirt stating “run XTC”. The humanoids right knee is propped up, they are leaning forward over the left knee, and their left hand is splayed across a concrete awning or similar flat unyielding surface

one mana you say

to shreds, you say

gatherer-static.wizards.com/Cards/medium...
The magic card 'High Tide.' Blue background, the words High Tide in the older 90's-esque Magic font which is harder to read because it is stylized, single blue mana cost, Instant, "Until end of turn, whenever a player taps an Island for mana, that player adds an additional blue mana."

I can't keep up with the deluge of slop phone calls and texts anymore. I will only call you AI and ask for your recipe going forward

and also if your plate is oven safe
A screenshot of a text message thread. The first message is an AI-generated image sent from the phone number +1 (208) 629-6805) of what is supposed to be crabs but looks more like Nike half-gloves with yellow inserts on a white plate with a black border. The responses to the leading text read as follows, alternating between the spammer and a human: - "What fresh AI hell is this" - "I'm driving, and I don't have time to guess with you." - "Hell yeah. What recipe are you using?" - "Don't send messages to AI!" - "I need to know where you got the plate and if it is oven safe"

we can do better.
Cutey Honey from the '90s Nagai OVA of similar vintage. She's got close-cropped light-red hair, an earring, a smirk, and a big honkin' sword.

one weird trick from going 99 -> 64 on the misery index (add a New York WNBA team b/c Texas doesn't have one)

No college teams means I can't get an accurate rating, but I will say that the Titans/Rockets 15+ year fandom by itself should earn me a perfect 100 no matter what teams I root for

a poster's ratio
skeet from Aleta Nook reading "Bush wasn't taking rights away nor was he trying to cheat elections. The most harm caused under him was the Great Recession." The post shows 30 quotes, 50 replies, and zero likes.

the process, for reference, is me reliving my 2004-era photography class
a screenshot of the GNU image manipulation program running on Ubuntu 24.04 showing the steps I used to create the photoshopped image from the original ad (including some mistakes/undos). The layers are armor, sword, torso (the torso is duplicated across two layers), and the original ad

no worries, I fixed it
Altered advertisement art for the game Aidyn Chronicles. The masculine characters have had their torsos replaced with the malnourished femme character's torso; the femme character's torso has been replaced with the bulky basic-fantasy armor of the title character

the cover of detective comics vol 1, #241. batman is wearing a light-red costume while Robin interrogates him about his choice of costume. Batman says "I must, ROBIN -- I must wear a different-colored BATMAN costume each night!" In the background are several mannequins with monocolored batman costumes in various colors. The overlay text reads "featuring 'The RAINBOW BATMAN'"
