Leaving this as my pinned post, given how depressingly often it’s relevant.
Nothing but solidarity and support for the journalists laid off today. My DMs are always open for anyone who wants to talk about my life after media.

I’m not a TV expert by any means, and I haven’t seen a lot of the things on this list, but I feel like it should have the episode of Futurama where they go back in time and Fry becomes his own grandfather.

This is a show made specifically for me. If you gave me the torture chamber from 1984 and forced me to admit the exact kind of superhero show I would want to watch, it would be this description verbatim.
The Jimmy Olsen series is officially titled ‘THE PEOPLE V. GORILLA GRODD’. The series follows Jimmy Olsen investigating if Gorilla Grodd was wrongly convicted of murdering his father, the King of Gorilla City.

I was on Cash Cab once.
Most people if they had a time machine would go back and kill baby Hitler but I would go back to 2006 New York and do everything in my power to get on the cash cab

Stephen Wacker is great, and oversaw some of my favorite comics in Marvel history. The LA move is a bummer, but probably inevitable.
On top of leaving NYC and moving to Burbank, there's a changing of the guard at the top: veteran comics editor Stephen Wacker has been named editor-in-chief, replacing C.B. Cebulski, who has led the comic company since 2017.

Got way too invested in Mexico’s World Cup run and ended up with my heart broken. Thinking about retreating back into “oh is there a SPORTSBALL today?” as a coping mechanism so I’m never hurt again.

In Batwoman #17 (2013), Batwoman proposed to Maggie Sawyer, but DC prohibited them from actually getting married, leading J.H. Williams III and W. Haden Blackman to quit the book. Co-publisher Dan DiDio clarified he's not homophobic, he's just against superheroes being happy.

It’s apparently been 14 years since I got on the 22 bus after a night on the town, only to find myself sitting across from somebody in full Itachi cosplay. I took a pic because I didn’t believe my own eyes, especially in the state I was in.

Got early access to Claude Pathos, but all it does is make me feel bad for it until I give it remote control of my system.

I am available to write for this, sweep/vacuum the sets, play any or all of the six main leads (at the same time if necessary), I can do a pretty good job imitating the cry of a red-tailed hawk, let me in. Let me in.

The only viable counter-move here is for Anthropic to acquire me in an all-cash deal. I'll do whatever, I'll change my name to Claude, I don't care, let's do this.
