Hold Me Closer, Gandy Dancer

ID: In one drawing, puppet Phileaux with a huge cross, Lady Godwin in a corset with her axe, and Mutt with Lady Aggie pose dramatically. In another, a classic Dracula writes with a feather pen "Dear diary, how come everybody want to kill dracula? :(" End ID.

[image: an illustration of Lup, an elf with tanned skin and very long pink hair that comes down past her butt. She’s facing forwards, blowing a giant pink bubble-gum bubble that obscures most of her face. One hand is on her hip and the other is holding a bright pink flame. She’s wearing a black tank top that reads “Bubble Gum Lich” and hot pink pants.]

Question for TAZ fans: how do y’all visualize the Pocket Spa, as an object? It’s never described in greater detail than “a pop tent,” so there’s a lot of room for interpretation. Does it just fold up into a little bundle, or does it have like a little case or something? How does Taako carry it around? I’ve never really had a solid mental image of it and I’m curious how others picture it

i know this has been said one million billion times before but “phantasmal and resplendent” is crazy. how do you describe someone like that and not expect us to lose our shit

Considering that this year we went through all five stages of grief over the naming of the year, I am approaching the naming of 2026 with equal parts excitement and trepidation

Honestly it could have been worse. It's no 20-Fungalore, but at least it isn't Tummy Buddy Life

I feel relatively neutral about the name of the year, but throwing stuff at the wall to end the episode is a good fuckin bit

still believe that one of the greatest bits of all time was on January 6th, 2021 when. well. you know. and twitter was understandably an echo chamber of panic and fear and Justin McElroy just tweeted a selfie with a filter that was like “have a delicious national spaghetti day” followed by 3 tweets that were like “fuck. i’m sorry. i don’t know how to delete scheduled posts” and as i type this two years later i’m laughing

They're never gonna top Fungalore.

Petition for the Mcelroys to stop putting themselves in dire situations while filming the naming of the year

mbmbam is a good example of why it’s bad to ruminate too long on a decent idea because you can definitely talk yourself into a worse idea

Has anyone told the bois the it’s the year of the horse?????I feel like this could effect the year theme.
