Oh was there an exciting basketball game? I was taking in the dignified gentleman's sport.

We need to take "peak" away from Zoomers and put it on a very tall shelf

Netflix releases 78 shows a week called The Night Accountant

If an actor was ever on Deadwood or The Wire that character will be the thing my brain calls them when they show up in anything else. When Chris Bauer shows up as some swat guy in a helicopter in Thunderbolts he is still Frank Sobotka.

You, a fool: The Truman Show anticipates reality TV and our increasingly parasocial relationship to celebrities Me, wise: The Truman Show is about the dangers of home-schooling

The Dolph Lundgren Masters Of The Universe was also a formative "movies can be bad?" moment for me but the second-run drive-in theater I saw it at paired it with Spaceballs as a double feature so it all evened out

When everyone starts dunking on a guy you ambiently suspected sucked but never had a concrete reason for disliking

The way these guys immediately switch from "wise, beneficent elder" to "I can't wait to grind you pathetic serfs into dust" mode the moment they get any pushback

Suit up!

Saw some of my favorite dudes play with Windy & Carl in a barn @hauntedteeth.bsky.social @floatingcave.bsky.social

Catch the mystery, catch the drift

Not proud of how hard I chuckled at a Horn If You're Honky bumper sticker

Adjacent to "Everyone Is 12" theory is "Everything Is An MLM." If I never admit I got duped I won't have to come to any other uncomfortable conclusions.

Polis made an I Ain't Reading All That post on Facebook trying to rationalize his decision that of course amounts to this

Yeah I bet he does

Forza Horizon calling Pissed Jeans "P Jeans" seems filthier somehow

Will just reiterate that in the many years I covered Polis closely, he never showed particular interest in the topic of over-sentencing, nor in criminal justice reform generally. This decision would read a lot differently if Polis had any sort of record as an advocate for clemency.

if you want to post you should submit a “post request” where a mutual will pretend to read it first and then approve a merge into the main bluesky timeline

Fuck Jared Polis. Worthless human garbage.

Wow this year's cardboard crop is already coming in

The Odyssey is going to make a billion dollars and they're going to claim it would have made a billion and one if it hadn't been woke. You don't have to spend the next two months pushing back on every fake grievance about it, I promise.

Asking for advice about anything on Facebook now is just setting a clock for someone to say "have you tried AI?"

This guy isn't even the most insane person running for governor, the one who declined the debate is worse

Computer, automatically delete my posts if they hit the Discover feed. Thank you, computer.

I worked for Lowes for like ten years, they should still let me move some pallets around with the reach truck when I need to blow off some steam

Ok yeah I'm becoming convinced that Patel overstepped whichever "calling too much attention to your bullshit" metric results in actually getting one of these people dismissed. Call it the Magi-Noem Line.

I think it's a better tv product now but a worse live experience. Realizing it's already the 7th inning and I'm still working on my second beer is disorienting. They should simply equip ballparks with some kind of time dilation field.

Racism Accusations Fly After Elon Musk Tweets "I am a huge racist"

At a weird place where I have friends who've gotten sober that I'm now more actively concerned about than I was when they were drinking because they're clearly white-knuckling it in a way that wasn't as evident before

This language gets me so amped. I'm ready to explore some notions right fucking now. Put me on a committee, coach.

Incredible

"Grocery prices rose in April." Thank you for that information. What will the weather be like last week.

The longer you live in a house the more nervous you get when it makes an expensive-sounding noise you've never heard before

Padres really committing to this huh

One of the dumbest guys I've ever worked with has been churning out vibe-coded apps and begging people to use them. His latest reads stories to your kids so you don't have to.

I saw so many hand-wringing comments about this like "what is the bar supposed to do, tell them not to show up?" lol

Rejecting a coworker's pull request on the grounds that he used a corny bacon-themed Lorem Ipsum generator

They should force the GOT guys to make that dumb Imagine If The Slavers Won The Civil War alternate history show they wanted to do now

One of my favorite things about Widow's Bay so far is that it seems content to be a monster-of-the-week hangout in a TV ecosystem of tiresome mystery boxes

Paul Dano in the Criterion Closet: "Wow, I want to respect the closet and not get too greedy." Oscar Isaac: *brings a dedicated steamer trunk just for hauling 4Ks*

The big reason why most Lost Cause bullshit is just easily disproven outright lying is because most people find it really grating when the most coddled population in all of human history tries to play victim

I kneejerk blocked a lot of big accounts when I first migrated over here and just skimmed that list again to see if there was anyone deserving of clemency but nope, it really is a menagerie of the most puffed-up dipshits around

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple 2: More Bone Temple

god i would kill for an extended bit of the Monarch not understanding the new usage for “goon” and her despondently trying to explain why he can’t use it in a speech
