You are thinking of the right word but a missing letter in the spelling of the word creates an innocent, humorous translation error. Drumstick is what these are typically called, like sticks used to play drums in music. Dumbstick instead invokes the comparison of a stupid, dumb stick, which is fun to think about.

The Guardian in the back has that look on her face like she just lost a bet that you wouldn't return until 20 years passed.

On top of that, they also completely ignore the real meaning of Russophobia which is the fear of movies directed by the Russo brothers.

The ancient legendary YT meme that Anon has as his profile pic is Leek Spin by Xyliex, created 18 years ago! I think it also popularized the Levan Polka as a meme song staple long before it's revival with Bilal the street drummer/cat vibing video.

And luckily it's already on archive.org so we've got one down!

My best guess is the Tales to Tremble By scary story collections:

Each story had some creepy art by Gordon Laite:

A lot of this fits with your descriptions from the best of my recollection.

Edit: Removed paragraph about potential third scary story series containing spider egg story, just realized that one was from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark 3, so Tales to Tremble By and its sequel is my only guess here.

 

I just saw Saturn as a super bright dot next to the moon. Apparently it'll be visible for a stretch throughout September, with Neptune also coming into view later this month.

Make sure to take a look at the night sky sometime this month if you want to see some planets!

Bartholomew Kuma's incredible powers from eating the paw paw fruit and his ability to sneak into a lot of situations in One Piece is adding up!

One of my favorite game publishers, this is wild (and not the Outer kind of wild). I'm super curious if the entire staff will start their own publishing company (which I imagine is harder to do without the financial backing of a billionaire's daughter) or if they'll split off and go their separate ways.

I'm also very curious if this will start changing the kinds of games Annapurna publishes or if they'll still take interest in odd and niche games that need a publisher. I wish I knew more about the dispute here but time will tell what happens next at some point.

Mobius is pretty fascinating and Klein is hilarious! They all have their own quirky charm that makes them all fun to interact with, though I'm partial to Dr. 0 simply because it's the same guy that voiced Dr. Venture on The Venture Bros. and the Wild Wasteland trait has him reference the "giant walking eye" as a nod to the show.
