What’s The Best Thing You’ve Ever Found Randomly On The Street?

Sounds like a pretty random thing to be a “best” thing, but I was once leaving a Bullet For My Valentine show in Manchester. On the floor was a signed guitar pick from what turned out to be someone from the band! I could not believe my luck, I cherished that thing for YEARS.

Unfortunately I kept it in my wallet in a little plastic sleeve and two “lovely” gentlemen decided it was only right to relive the burden of carrying my wallet in my pocket. Enough about my sad tale, what is the best thing you have ever found on the ground?

Related to my article on using #Fediverse #hashtags as a method to comment on blog articles (and similar):

I used Claude to implement #kamm: Karl's Awesome Mastodon Manager. 😜

https://codefloe.com/publicvoit/kamm

With that tool, you now may export the list of followed hashtags in a local file as the web UI doesn't give you that possibility at the moment.

Furthermore, you may use kamm to follow a set of hashtags. That list could be large as my script handles rate limiting in a proper way.

I've described my use-case with an example at the end of https://karl-voit.at/2026/08/22/Blog-Comments-via-Hashtags/

This is even a workaround for an old feature request of Mastodon: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/22921 as kamm is also a simple export/import tool for hashtags, independent of the "use it for comments"-idea. 😉

Idea developed and implemented at #hackmas #hackmas26 🙇

A Look Back at X-Men 2099 #8 (1994)

Disclaimer: This is my original work with details sourced from reading the comic book and doing personal research. Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A. No. 8293, the Revised Penal Code, and/or all applicable legal actions under the laws of the Philippines.

Welcome back, superhero enthusiasts, 1990s culture enthusiasts, X-Men fans and comic book collectors! Today we revisit the Marvel Comics shared universe to examine one of the many tales of the X-Men 2099 monthly series.  

After the first seven issues of the series, it is clear that the futuristic mutants under Xi’an have tough challenges to not only survive in the dangerous and unpredictable wasteland of 2099’s America but also help their leader fulfill the ultimate goal of protecting mutants from the evil corporations in accordance to the dream of Professor X (Charles Xavier). Unlike the X-Men of the 20th century, the team of 2099 does not have vast resources nor do they have a permanent place for living and development. Xi’an himself is still struggling with the elements from his past as a violent criminal.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at X-Men 2099 #8, published by Marvel Comics in 1994 with a story written by John Francis Moore and drawn by Ron Lim.

Early story

The story begins with Krystalin examining Archangel with amazement. Moments later, she sees Cyclops, Iceman, Beast and Jean Grey (in her Phoenix form). She wondered how many times did each of Professor X’s first students appear to die only to return again and again. She recalls that the records of their deaths may have been in error or even falsified. She also remembers the succeeding X-Men teams of Del Ruiz and Zhao.

It turns out the original X-Men members she saw were holograms as Victor Ten Eagles (who was a fellow outlaw with Xi’an in the old days) reveals that he opened his studio to few people and never to strangers. He allowed Krystalin in because he owes Xi’an a blood debt from their time together with the Lawless. As they talk, he explains to her his personal interest in the X-Men and the legacy.

Over at Iron Horse in Arizona, Hurricane talks with two trackers who were tied up. Meanstreak uses his super speed to dismantle the trackers’ suits of armor and examine the technologies within. He finds one Tetsuo Mark 6 signal beacon that was used to monitor armor in the field. He tells Hurricane she can use it as an advance warning the next time trackers are sent after her.

Hurricane tells the X-Men that she and the Freakshow never stay too long in one place. Moments later, the infected Metalhead tells Skullfire that he is trapped in his current metal form and could not change back…

Quality

To make things clear, this X-Men 2099 comic book is very engaging to read as it is filled with a lot of details that further expanded the lore of the 2099 universe concerning mutants and legacy of the X-Men in the 21st century. As such, I really enjoyed learning about the “future history” of the X-Men, how mutants struggled to survive in a corporation-controlled America, and why the wasteland became the 21st century’s very own Old West where danger and uncertainty are constant.

If have an obsession about the 2099 universe, there is a lot to discover and enjoy here. Xi’an’s pursuit for knowledge about the mutant underground and Hurricane’s involvement is compelling to read and what was revealed is worth discovering. Meanwhile, Krystalin and Ten Eagles’ exploration of facilities as they search for answers reminds me a lot about a notable part of the story in Beneath the Planet of the Apes.

Conclusion

X-Men 2099 #8 (1994) is a compelling read and it is one of the stronger references about the 2099 universe and the legacy of the X-Men from the time of Xavier to that of Zhao. The details revealed here are fine pay-offs to what was built up in the previous issues, and they connect well with the existence of Xi’an’s X-Men. This comic book will really help you understand the place of mutants in the 21st century and in my experience, the learning is enjoyable.

Overall, X-Men 2099 #8 (1994) is highly recommended.

The Sleepover: A Poem About a 90’s Childhood, Growing Up, and the Joy We Didn’t Know We Had

We’re always on that knuckle of starlight,
tucked between life and death,
but another scythe was swinging
that adult-edged air whistling,
ready to hew and sever
cartoons, stickers, and action figures
at a sleepover in eighth grade
at Frank Erickson’s house.

It was the late 90’s dream,
the wonderland was a three-tiered pixel cake.
Upstairs, Knights on the Saturn,
in the kitchen Mario Kart on the 64,
and the basement, with a growling hand-me-down fridge
gleaming and glassy with Orbtiz and Canada Dry,
Heroes of Might and Magic, hot-seat clicking that
old mouse, a tank with a plastic sun in its belly.

Dinner was pizza rolls, chips, and pizza rolls again.
Cold, they were ketchup.
Hot, cheap spaghetti sauce.
We ate them both ways. Between sunset and sunrise.
Plus candy, ice cream, and Mountain Dew.
Sometimes combined, a high-fructose stalactite,
a sugary pillar with a lime-green mantle,
we’d dare each other for a bite.

Our world was still
the homing red turtle shells,
black-brick castles with a leering cyclops,
or floating cities with air currents for roads
weaving the gemstone-blues of carnival lights.
We were still hypnotized by tv and computer monitors,
their heavy, sledgehammer shells,
and tangled controller cords.

Toward morning we’d pick a muscle-bound,
action movie with rattling gunfights, endless explosions,
and wily-eyed villains with cement eyebrows.
Yet, the curves of the heroines were stealing our eyes
longer, longer, and longer.
Conversations became crushes and colleges,
assisted by a smidgen of his mom’s vodka
snuck into our Tahitian Treat.

I was unaware
underneath midnight, sleeping bags, and ghost stories,
that those moments would be locked away.
Shackled in their polygon radiance,
a comet eternally traveling
through my memories,
colliding and snaring the present
reminding me

how easy that joy was.
