It‘s Don Henley’s The Boys of Summer season

All I need for that is attend my department meeting thanks

WE COME FROM THE LAND OF THE ICE AND SNOW FROM THE MIDNIGHT SUN WHERE THE HOT SPRINGS BLOW

Für mich ist deutsche Prominenz immer noch Uschi Glas und Jürgen Drews, alle die unter 60 sind erkenn ich nicht

Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."

I cancelled an Australian radio interview about Disney Adults last week cause I was on sick leave but that also would have been a lot more interesting now. Media I‘m available again next week.

Hier die Erinnerung, dass neben den hausärztlichen Praxen viele Apotheken gegen SARS-COV-2 und Grippe impfen. Die neuen angepassten Impfstoffe sind auf dem Markt und die Viruslast im Abwasser steigt. infektionsradar.gesund.bund.de/de/covid/abw...

This would be a wild way to announce high-speed rail.

Remember when our silly rom com podcast had Marisa Kabas on, then again it‘s kinda Nora Ephron of us, historically speaking

Portugal has recognised the Palestinian state.

Canada has formally recognised a Palestinian State.

Australia has formally recognized a Palestinian State.

I dread how Germany will react like I‘m already embarrassed

Done.

Apropos of nothing in particular, here's Walt Disney's testimony to HUAC in 1947, where he named employees he believed were communists, condemned labor unions, and accused "commie" groups, including the League of Women Voters, of smearing him. 🗃️ archive.org/details/walt...

Bereitet den Weg? Macht gemeinsame Sache bzw will ihr den Rang ablaufen. Und neu ist das auch nicht mehr.

Finds auch wieder spannend wie viele Leute eine absolut wichtige Meinung zur Wiesn haben die sie unbedingt kundtun müssen, fahrts halt einfach nicht hin. Als würds sonst nirgends Festivals jeglicher Art geben wo getrunken wird.

I‘m on a train and I need you all to know that COW

Idk who needs to hear this but Wiesn ist nicht Plural

And literally four days later from this story Open AI admits what we all know to he true. That when a model generates bullshit, that’s no flaw, that’s just how it works. www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

Bill Kristol defends trans rights Ted Cruz defends free speech Next thing is gonna be … *spins wheel* Tucker Carlson defends … *spins again* abortion rights

O‘zapft is

Leckt mich doch am Arsch.

It has long been my opinion that Hollywood is frittering away the generational dance talents of Channing Tatum & Tom Holland by not putting them in a musical together. Not a remake, but akin to Gene Kelly & Donald O’Connor in Singin’ In The Rain. I strongly believe this would make a billion dollars

I am not against translation software but I‘m against 1. it being uncritically used to just translate public facing websites instead of just paying translators cause the results are horseshit 2. AI based tools being shoved at me without alternative when are the best examples of enshittification

Universities: - Stop offering workshops on how to use ChatGPT to write papers - stop using DeepL to translate your websites or make it sound useful for our research - stop pretending AI usage is inevitable. I don‘t want to work for institutions who can‘t employ critical thinking to new tech.

Disney now stands at a crossroads: terminate Kimmel’s contract and become pavement for the road to a brave new Trumpian world; or stand for the First Amendment and take the onslaught.There’s not much at stake, just free speech, the oxygen that sustains life in this town. deadline.com/2025/09/ando...

"a man two friends short of a podcast" is an INCREDIBLE turn of phrase. Language is beautiful

Yeah it‘s so much more in your face while at the same time, on a base level, they were both censored because their parents companies need the Trump admin to sign off on mergers. Both of these incidents were convenient moments, nothing more.

welcome to The Resistance, *checks notes* *sighs* *weeps gently* ...michael eisner

I‘m legitimately curious why the reaction to this is so much stronger than Paramount cancelling Colbert? Cause he‘s still on? Cause there was benefit of the doubt? Cause people‘s relationship with Disney is different?

Oh now it is on variety.com/2025/tv/news...

Dutch late night TV has its take

We’re all just gonna have to make space for those that were somehow after all these years just now radicalized by Jimmy Kimmel getting fired

Als wäre alles nicht schlimm genug hat Heidi Klum ein Heidifest gefeiert

Who‘s paying James Hibberd to write a confusingly worded piece about something he thinks was confusingly worded, I guess, it‘s unclear, so the Hollywood Reporter can slap a clickbaity headline on it www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/j...

I‘m working on a project concerning the systemic discrimination of queer people and censorship of US TV and can no longer cross the US border to do research for it because they‘re very busy doing all that
