While i work I've been listening to an LP of the Telltale Walking Dead Games (the ones with clementine, I do not care about the others lmao). Ages ago when I played these I was well aware/amused that part of season 2 takes place in Parker's Crossroads/Parker's Run because I grew up right next to it and the detail stood out to me.
But I never caught the line of "We'll head to parker's run. It's just up the road from here" until just right now. So I had a sort of "wait, where the fuck are they supposed to be right now?" (search)
ARE YOU SHITTING ME LMAO
So by process of elimination, since it's the only city with anything even remotely resembling a large home supply store, that would mean they're in my literal hometown. My tiny hometown in the middle of nowhere that's never in anything that barely anyone knows of.
How in the fuck lmao
#shut up pu#random stuff#I guess Howe's would be our Co-Op#I moved away forever ago but my brain often still returns to that tiny town. the biggest city in henderson county. lmaoo#Did they just randomly pick a place on the map for the location... parker's crossroads/run surprised me but it's at least more of a thing#i'm upset with myself for never picking up on that before#sorry telltale but we never had a comic book store you have to go all the way over to the next county for that#also your geography's wrong it's east tennessee that has mountains#west tennessee is all hills#i'm being nitpicky but it's out of amusement#of all the places to end up in a zamboni apocalypse#my poor girl clem lucky she made it out at all#lmao I strongly dislike this series all BUT these games with clementine#and I love her so much#goes to show what a good likable character can do#anyway I'm upset that you don't get to go raid the dairyqueen in season 2#maybe this is an odd thing to post about but I literally come from a#“the nearest starbucks is 40 minutes away” level of tiny nowhere town#and playing this game when it first came out only to realize this detail about a decade later made me spit my drink out

Do you own any Looney Tunes production art?
i’m incredibly fortunate enough to say that I DO!! i own this wonderful photostat model sheet from Porky the Wrestler!
a photostat is essentially the ‘30s equivalent of a photocopy, so it’s not THE actual model sheet drawing, but it was still in the hands of at least one of the animators who worked on the short! if you hold it at a certain angle and get the light to reflect off of it, there are actually some indentations of writing, as if someone was writing on a piece of paper on top of it… and of course the hooves and side snout drawn in marker which aren’t meant to be there (maybe it was a slow work day?)
i actually still haven’t gotten it framed, i need to… but i also just really enjoy being able to hold it in my hands and try and make out the writing indentations on top and also lose my mind at Oh My God Someone In The Tex Avery Unit Touched This At One Point. plus, the material is glossy/has a cardboard sort of feel to it (like a more sturdy printed photograph) so it’s not as delicate as animation paper and gets along fine sitting on my shelf as is HAHA. still, definitely want to find a proper means of displaying it sometime!
#it’s the oldest item in my collection :) i presume from sometime in late 1936 since the short was released in very early 1937#second oldest is my 1938 Porky’s Duck Hunt book#thennn a Porky compilation comic book from 1942? then things get a little ambiguous with the age but generally span from the mid 40s#such as my Porky coasters Porky and Daffy pencil stand and piggy bank respectively and ceramic Daffy figure#i have a LT record album from 1947 and then a Bugs Bunny little golden book and Dell comic book from 1949… and two other Dell comics from 1#1950 and 1951. aaand a Pepe Pepsi glass from the 70s#and that’s the extent of my vintage collection!#anonymous#asks#I FORGOT MY PORKY SQUEAK TOY! i have a rubber Porky squeak toy from sometime in the 50s also and he is very cute and makes me happy#he stands proudly next to the ceramic Daffy figure as they both keep the peace

I feel like anyone who says comics these days are too political should be forced to read anything written by Dennis O'Neil.
#i need to stop going into bad comic book places and seeing bigots#stop it#cause as we know their definition of politics is gay people existing#you want actual politics in comics even dating back to the 40s don't worry i could give you some recommendations

You're a fool! And there are many fools in America who think like you. Listen... I'm going to set you straight with a story about two friends of mine... Doiby Dickles and Green Lantern...
Alan Scott in Comic Cavalcade (1942) #9, a story that sees Green Lantern tackling a conspiracy built around racial and religious prejudice with a cover date of December 1944.
(Henry Kuttner, Paul Reinman)
#alan scott#doiby dickles#green lantern#jsa#justice society of america#justice society#green lantern 1941#henry kuttner#paul reinman#dc#dc comics#dcedit#comicedit#comicsedit#u can reblog#there's no universe in which any other 40s comic was undertaking a story like this. alan's series was genuinely radical#and practically unheard of among contemporaries AND modern comics alike. no modern book has half the guts it took to publish this#among other books full of wwii propaganda a year before the war had even ended.#its not just significant its absolutely crazy!#and again. more proof alan is and has always been gay & gaycoded

I am always, always going to miss the era of Dungeons and Dragons when playing a roleplaying game was advertised as a sort of counterculture machismo in a self aware, taking the piss kind of way.
Like the composition here fucks, right? dudes smoking a cigar through his bucket helm and shit, idk something about it speaks to my soul
#Dungeons and dragons#TTRPG#obligatory 5e hate tag i don't want people getting the wrong idea#vintage advertising#I think this ad comes from the 80's? I can't be sure though. Alot of the ads from the 90's for the second edition was more full colour#I'm not actually like 40 I just had access to all my dads old comic books

i can’t believe hal didn’t grow up poor, i’m gonna be sick
#I THOUGHT HE WAS ONE OF US#he’s so often homeless and unemployed in his adult life that i forget that his family raised him on military shmoney#i should’ve realized smth was up when he grew up with 2 brothers and they all had their own rooms#unbelievable… and the fact that barry had to be more frugal in his childhood…#not that i think the allen’s were low income they did pretty decently growing up in the suburbs-ish#im just thinking abt his worn down shoes and how he was only allowed to get One comic book at the store#so i’m thinking that they had extra money to spend but not that much#the idea that hal grew up with more money than barry is literally boggling my mind#and ik it’s not the same now as adults but HAL. YOU’RE LITERALLY ALWAYS ASKING BARRY TO SPEND MONEY ON YOU.#making the working class man pay your rent when you’re literally friends with billionaires. unbelievable.#this is all lighthearted and probably 40% headcanon btw#i’m just astounded by the fact#hal jordan#green lantern#barry allen#the flash#dc#danbles
