Found new depths of AI food horror in Lidcombe today. Behold! Fish cake soup!

@dashwallkick.bsky.social points out that the intestine brain things appear to have demon faces on them.
Absolutely gross “fish cake soup” that looks like internal organs on sticks.

I'm choosing not to finish this book after 45%, because to continue would be a
Super Mario Galaxy logo but instead it says SUNK COST FALLACY.

It's time for me to sue Rob Liefeld.

(But only if Marvel doesn't sue me - I didn't know about any Leapérs when I came up with this name 25+ years ago!)
Comic cover for Rob Liefeld's Badrock #1. A shirtless grey rock dude wearing white gloves, a utility belt, and white and red pants is jumping at the reader with his right hand pulled back as if to punch you.

I've been doing some research and this is what I turned up.
The poster for Douglas Sirk's Imitation of Life, but it says Imitation of Crab. (It's a 1950s era movie poster with people looking glamourous in that 65 years ago way) Black and white Robert Downey Jr. informing us about Imitation Crab: "it is a product that uses fish meat to imitate shellfish meat."

Would that it were so simple, Spriteling.
A still from the end of Wario World. Wario faces a Spriteling, a goober who has branches wrapped around his head and wrists. A dialogue box says “You did it! You defeated all the evil monsters! Everything will be all right now!”

Before I am forcibly ejected from comics world for reasons beyond my control, I will say that I read … several … issues of things on the weekend and enjoyed them. Mostly.
The silhouette of a man in a Spider suit is at the cash register of a Japanese restaurant. Shadowy figure: Hello. I have a pickup. For Mr. Mann. Mr. S. Mann.

I also made these in honour of For Good.
De Niro as Murray Franklin: Let me get this straight: you think Wicked: For Good getting zero nominations is funny? Phoenix as Arthur Fleck: I do. And I'm tired of pretending it's not. Principal Skinner lecturing the school bullies: Well I'll tell you something that's not so funny: right now Jon M. Chu is at home crying like a little girl.

Two panels: Panel One: Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica Atreides in Dune saying "Use the Voice." Panel Two: Elle Fanning as Rachel Kemp in Sentimental Value. You know what voice she's going to use.
