I roll my eyes so hard every time I see a study saying Gen Z makes up the bulk of movie theatre audiences. The young adults who have energy, and who have jobs and therefore money, but who don't yet have kids, are going to movies more than anyone else—you spent actual money to figure that out??

I am extremely excited at the prospect of a new God of War game starring Laufey but I can also already feel a tension headache coming on just thinking about the next year or so of chuds complaining about a God of War game with a female lead

the only radical center i respect is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

The very body that exists to fight antisemitism has documented that the existential, catastrophic, overwhelming threat to Jews in this country comes NOT from Muslims, the Left, or college students-but from the same RW extremists that simultaneously undermine our democracy,institutions,& rule of law.

As of now we are officially HALF WAY TO HALLOWEEN. You're going to make it. Everything is going to be fine.

No bagel can be everything to everyone, but this bagel can be a conveyor of smoked salmon and cream cheese to my mouth

Hard agree

2010: we’ll start a business that makes money by selling a product or service to customers 2026: fuck customers, our product or service makes money by being terrible but having leftover customers from when it was good

Hot take but I dig it

oh wow it's that thing that was only happening in everybody's heads

I have spent far too much of my life trying to explain staggeringly simple concepts to people who make at least double what I do in a year (if not much more than that), only for them to still not get it, to believe that meritocracy is anything but a fairy tale.

I've switched from Google search, trying Brave and DuckDuckGo. It's mind-numbing to use Google already, let alone with this change. www.sfgate.com/tech/article...

I can't believe we're getting the Butlerian Jihad *before* GTA6

Support my literary career! Give me money and I will name some horrendous villain after your: -ex -situationship -estranged parent -boss -or anyone else of your choosing!

To go even further, I vastly prefer a film/show/book that takes risks even if not all of those risks pay off, over one where everything lands but only because they play it safe. Bold yet flawed > safe

The trades deserve respect. But there's something deeply ironic about a bunch of politicians who went to Harvard and Yale and MIT and have never worked a real job telling you higher education is evil and woke and churning out this AI slop poster to glorify work that they themselves don't respect.

Grok: "Apologies, this Cybertruck is not as I previously claimed 100% watertight. You are right to correct me on this. Would you like to learn more about submersible vehicles?"

so this is what passes for award-winning prose

I am once again forced to reckon with the fact that I have well and truly fucked myself by not making an effort to get published before AI slop started infesting the industry

Now ask his assistants

If data centres are so beneficial, they should only be built in high end neighbourhoods or on 18 hole golf courses.

I really wish streaming platforms let you mark a show or movie as “not interested” so it would permanently disappear from your recommendations.

ALIEN: ROMULUS (2024) mostly works cause it’s a heist movie interrupted by aliens, correctly keeps the vibe that all space work is Trucking

Movies have been shot primarily on digital for over 20 years, but people only started to complain en masse about the look of it recently. It's not digital cinematography you hate—it's bland corporate art, designed in a boardroom, every creative decision engineered to please investors.

"Socially liberal but fiscally conservative" is just a pseudo-intellectual way of saying "I don't mind Queers, Jews, and Blacks in my neighbourhood, but I draw the line at poor people"

The whole Andy Weir comment from a while back has really put me off of potentially reading his books, not in a "I must cancel the white man for his bad opinions" way, but because I have but one precious life and I don't want to waste that on someone who's so clearly intellectually incurious

Note I wrote to myself in my notebook while reviewing my novel's prologue: "This is where we take the reader by the hand and invite them on a trip. The offer needs to be enticing." Damn, thanks past me for this banger. #Booksky #WritingCommunity #HorrorLit #WriteLife

HER: when I get over there you better not be cunty Alan Rickman in a stupid hat me:

We don't deserve Chuck

The girls on the left still exist in 2026, they just don't hang out with people who post stuff like this

You and me both

And now, your moment of Zen…

It's probably just a coincidence but when I started my current position three years ago, my beard was still completely black, and it's now very grey. Can't possibly read into that in any meaningful way.

When they say history repeats itself there’s no reason to think it’s only the bad stuff

I have felt more external pressure in my life to create short-form video content to engage the algorithm than I ever have to try drugs.

honestly the only Millennial / Gen Z dividing point that matters to me is this: do you remember how things were pre-9/11? and, crucially, how everyone lost their minds on and after 9/11? If so, you're a millennial or older.

Nic Cage is an extraordinary actor who is quite literally unrecognisable in some roles as seen here.

I saw a cybertruck with tinted windows a few days ago and I assume that the tinted windows were to hide the shame of the lone male who was in the car.

Warning There is an email going around offering processed pork, gelatin and salt in a can. If you get this email, do not open it. It's a spam.

we've moved from "shooting yourself in the dick" to "pouring lemon juice into the hole you shot in your dick"

Ursula K. Le GOAT

Avril Lavigne's "Sk8er Boi" is blatantly pro-"falling in love with his potential" propaganda and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

Even if it wasn't staged the fact that so many people assume it was staged speaks volumes

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

Big L for the gaming community

Rewatching Yellowjackets, and I’ve got to tell you, if I were in that situation the first one to be eaten would unquestionably be the one who had changed the radio station while I was listening to Liz Phair

Greatest movie you should never watch with your parents present
