This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.
ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

CARTOON OF THE DAY
My university banned our martial arts club from using any metal weapons because they “look dangerous”.
ETSU is where I learned to use a Japanese sword.
For this to be blindly banned without a second thought, or even a conversation, really speaks of the character of the place where I work.

Grew up on Spidey and Calvin, got angsty with the Runaways, then got a harsh, but beautiful dose of space living from Saga.

Here, I said some goofy bullshit about what maybe you can do today. Is it helpful? Probably not! But it's here! For you to ignore or embrace at your leisure.

Tonight, we watched Shiori Ito’s Black Box Diaries at a café near Nezu. She invited us. The amazing film chronicles her fight to expose her rape despite political and police cover-ups. I first met her in 2017, wrote up her struggle for The Daily Beast while major media ignored it
She won her fight🙏

It’s another #skeletoncrew day! Meaning, another day for my wife and I to obsess over Neel and how wholesome he is!

Teaching is an awful profession most of the time for me.
But I had a student cry and hug me today, on her last day of class with me.
She said I was “the best” and she thanked me for using her preferred name as soon as I learned it.
Sometimes, it ain’t too heck.

Already commented on this, but this is why I teach a manga class.
Students WANT to read. But they don’t connect with class materials sometimes. LET THEM READ!
If it wasn’t for Apollo’s Song, Eyeshield 21, Akira, Shaman King, and more I wouldn’t be reading as much today!
Ashamed of my state…

Many manga titles have been removed from school libraries in Tennessee School Districts including 'Attack on Titan,' 'Akira,' 'My Hero Academia' and 'Fire Force'
State regulations now prohibit any material 'containing nudity, sexual conduct, excessive violence, or sadomasochistic abuse' in schools

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Name’s Zack, I’m a Japanese professor, martial arts instructor, Star Wars nerd, husband, and dad!
Made the migration over here from the other place, looking forward to actually enjoying talking on social media again.
