I really miss that mug.
…let alone wear a feather boa.
A dinner party guest came back downstairs wearing one of our hostess’ feather boas. He had fun with it for a while, then looked very thoughtful. He said,
“I can’t tell you guys how much it means to me, being able to really be myself around you. Thanks so much!”
He’s a 6’ + former Marine.
Medication is precluding me to enjoy alcohol in large doses. But If I had to open a beer right now… I have a bottle like this on my fridge for an special occasion:
ETA: He’s crashing a Trademark attorney party And they say the americans don’t know how to make beer!
Now reverse it for German.
Kel divertimont.

Finns like Aku Ankka (Donald Duck) a bit. Yeah those have some Mickey Mouse, Goofy comics too…
I like that.
Saw the video but for some reason Arne Anka has some of a cult following in certain Barcelona Comic Subcultures, so basically I already knew the story . Guess it ressonates with the punk comic subculture of the Makoki bookstore (that sadly closed some years ago, as the health of its owner -and comic author Gallardo - declined).
Some of the most famous comics that spawned from the people that frequented that bookstore include the namesake makoki:
As well as Pedro Pico y Pico Vena:
As well as less punk but also quite ground-breaking at the time it was the creation of the “El Vibora” Magazine, that basically gave a way for many spanish authors (and some european ones) to get into readers hands.
My inner demons unionized and so I don’t fight them. They have collective bargaining.
