I've seen this going around today and it's beautiful, so here's a gift link.

lol okay man

Nic Cage as John Madden looks kinda like when Alan Partridge got fat because he had a Toblerone addiction.

sort of hard to believe that Marty Supreme never broke his glasses

joining the "cybertruck owners only" group on fb is one of the best decisions i've ever made. every so often when i'm scrolling through fb getting pissed off, i get to see a little treat like this

Penn Jillette in Marty Supreme is some of the funniest casting I’ve ever seen

MechaHitler, M.D.

my direct flight home from New York to LA was canceled and i got rebooked with an eight-hour layover in Buffalo. one simply must laugh

can someone free Christian Bale from David O. Russell prison

tech bros trying to convince everyone epstein is cool is so telling and interesting

starring Ben Affleck as Odysseus

“Leaving behind over 3 million followers” is a crazy thing to write lol

Jesus: I am the light of the world Jesus’s brother Jeff: Here we go

well i suppose that settles it

completely forgot i wrote this

are you having a laugh

I've always wondered if shark culture has a term for when a show is out of ideas and can only get more ridiculous with a stunt and do they call it "swimming under the Fonz"?

Anyone who says “I remember it and it sucked” is clearly only saying it through Jump the Shark lenses. No one quit thinking the Fonz was cool after that; they just think they did because we hold that episode up now as a lesson.

Gerry Adams was posting like Chuck Grassley in 2016 at age 68. he’s now retired and Chuck is 92 and president pro tempore of the U.S. Senate

as a happy day watcher in 77 i thought it was pretty sweet

And not for nothing, but...it was Happy Days. What credibility or verisimilitude was there to be lost

I was a kid for the Fonz jumping the shark and it was like the Moon Landing to me. I had a picture of it I cut out of the newspaper on my bedroom door. I might in fact have been a weird kid.

i get why “jumping the shark” has come to have its present meaning but it doesn’t make historical sense to me. if i were a Happy Days fan and saw the Fonz waterski over a shark at that time i would have felt we’d just won the Cold War

Nolan had one job and he fucked it up

anyway that isn't even true

This is wild. Why would a line like this be redacted: “Epstein also threatened harm to victims and helped release damaging stories about them to damage their credibility when they tried to go public with their stories of being trafficked and sexually abused.”

Finally some answers about Stanley Kubrick, Jeffrey Epstein, pedophile cults, “Eyes Wide Shut” and of course the moon landing.

this article by @milesklee.bsky.social is still one of my favorite things ive ever read im always so glad to remember it exists. it's such a wonderful examination of our cultural relationship with men's nudity. melmagazine.com/en-us/story/...

I wrote about Bari Weiss, 60 Minutes, CBS News, and what all of this says about the state of mainstream media. www.readtpa.com/p/the-kill-s...

The great @marisakabas.bsky.social joined the 404 Media podcast to talk indie journalist, whassup in the federal government, how media has changed over the last decade, and lots more! Please listen! www.404media.co/podcast-land...

I interviewed @milesklee.bsky.social and @spookymeatball.bsky.social about their gut-punching, romantic, horrific and funny collection Double Black Diamond, the short story in general, how their collaboration process worked, and whether or not the world is indeed fucked.

took a peek at the groupings of posts on bluesky over the past 48 hours

nice try your honor, but I too brought a gavel

people saying The Odyssey looks inaccurate to the period are being really insensitive. you do know Homer was blind, right?
