The Quiet Posters feed is the only thing saving my mind amidst the bad vibeage

@jowrotethis.bsky.social listening to you F4 pod and it has me wondering if Marvel is soft launching a *different* MCU that can rebuild beloved MCU characters with new actors etc. Wind down the current MCU through secret wars and then move on….

Records that truly sound better on #vinyl Something about the vinyl master for Rundgren's "A Wizard, a True Star" always beats out digital versions for me.

New music dropping soon

How is it that the paramount store has, like, Dale Cooper’s lip balm and official Star Trek data pads or whatever but there is *nothing* fun coming out of Disney for #skeletoncrew
