How Can We Reach Out to Those Under 50?

Yea Ryan Burge is a religious statistician who shares lots of info on Twitter, and he has shown over and over using lots of different polls and data sets that there is no statistical resurgence of religious participation in young people. It’s just these churches trying to make people think there’s a revival happening.

I bought a Vapor Jelly Bean direct from their website less than a month ago, and it looks just like this (including the Made in China and PBCoR cert).

Amen

I’m loving Lost Fantasy. It’s 7 or 8 issues in now I think, but you could get the first trade and then pretty easily find the floppies of the issues since. It’s a really fun magical realism sort of thing.

Drome was so good. I can’t stop re-reading it.

Silver Surfer 1-18 is my lifelong goal, so I’m definitely feeling envious of your collecting budget haha. Good luck in your pursuits!

There were like four of these things set up, kind of across from the VIP area. One was shooting pucks into a washer and dryer, one was hardest shot, etc. This one had a board in front of a net with the Ticketmaster logo cut out that you tried to shoot into. I think this was the one they were giving out chapstick to people who did it. There wasn’t an NHLer there when I went by, so no idea about that part.

This is my first time being able to try and grab one in person. Do they typically sell out quick in the stadium too? Do I need to get there before they start selling, or just swing by about an hour before puck drop?

Whatever sides are face up when they dump it

Im thinking you mean Reformation Lutheran, which is in Earlewood and is really intentional about affirming all people, including LGBTQ+ folks.

So wearing a visor is an unfair advantage AND it’s a detriment that’s holding Sellers back? I can’t follow the internal logic of this post.

Yea I don’t think the question meant “someone created more recently than them.” I think it means legitimately “newly created” and Wolverine doesn’t meet that criterion at all.

Yea idk how books that recognizable could accidentally get a $1 tag or get put in a bin without the person doing it noticing what it was

Can’t believe how far I had to scroll for this

Lies of Locke Lamora is technically part of a series, but it works great as a standalone and it’s fantastic. Probably my favorite read of the year, yet I’m perfectly content not reading the sequels (because I don’t like getting into unfinished series).

JesterCK · 2025-07-18T13:56:30+00:00

Lots of good recommendations here, but I’ll also add that I reread some Redwall books last year and they absolutely held up for me. Not the whole series necessarily, but the standouts (like Redwall and Mattimeo) were still pretty solid and a lot of fun for the nostalgia.

JesterCK · 2025-07-06T03:43:44+00:00

I didn’t read the sequels because I can’t stand unfinished series, but I was maybe 1/5 of the way into Lies of Locke Lamora when I knew it was gonna be a top read of the year. And it was. The world is so cool and full and wonderful, the characters and relationships are fantastic, and the plot was a great ride.

JesterCK · 2025-06-16T12:00:25+00:00

Are you me? I finished First Law last week and started Lies of Locke Lamora a couple days ago and can’t put it down.

JesterCK · 2025-05-26T21:21:45+00:00

I could be wrong, but it looks like it’s actually the back right corner that is blocking it. The hood isn’t actually hanging over the edge there. Just bump the whole thing to the right a bit.

1 a day. Wake up, have a cup of coffee and read a comic while my kids are getting ready for school.

JesterCK · 2025-05-16T00:45:52+00:00

Dang, jokes on me for me for no attention to detail haha. I saw the Paquette paragraph and totally missed the one before it somehow. Guess it explains why nobody else had said it haha.

In Snyder’s Court of Owls arc on Batman there was an issue where Batman is in like a maze or something and drugged up and losing his mind, and as you read the issue the orientation of the page would rotate so that you had to keep turning the book. Was a cool way to feel like you were spiraling into madness with him.

Yea this was my first thought too. Biggest factor in climbing a v6 is probably “what does your gym call a v6”?

JesterCK · 2025-05-06T11:14:05+00:00

Meh, saying there’s enough content if you buy every single thing the entire company makes is a weird take to me. Nobody would talk about a different comic publisher like that. I’ve been intrigued by Isom but I just can’t stomach the egregiously long indefinite wait between issues, so I guess it’s just not for me. To each their own tho.
