X Files is now my go to bed activity where I watch an episode before heading to bed. Makes for fun dreams.

Make a decent, even really good found footage trilogy that has a good beginning, middle, and resolved ending with closure. Decide hey some of the other lore seems interesting, i'll do some origin story, get caught in the weeds of it all, end it with a movie "for the fans" that makes no sense at all

Somehow I got distracted all day by Lego Star Wars Skywalker Saga and I might just wanna replay the whole game over again cause it’s too much fun

Fictional incompetent leaders still more competent than Trump

One take on Pluribus I haven’t seen is this. The Joining is a metaphor for the Govid Vaccine. Carol is playing the ultimate Karen in her response. The Joining actually saves humanity and the story is about convincing Carol it’s okay. Yeah I know this is far fetched but it’d be interesting.

Some first time watches that I really enjoyed The Exorcist (1973) Emergency (2022) Perfect Days (2023) The Magnificent Seven (1960)

We're socialized to constantly apologize for being too outwardly excited about things, but this world is so full of terror and misery that I'd rather see those bursts of light and passion shine through the cracks wherever you can find them.

I’ve said it before but news outlets worry a lot about looking biased and not enough about looking phony. Why should people trust you if you won’t say what they can see plain as day?

My new big first time Tv Series watch is X-Files. Definitely into this. Another show that slipped under my radar over the years but I’m fixing that now

Why is this the first I'm hearing of this? This should be getting as much press as Springsteen's biopic this year, www.thewrap.com/michael-teas...

Also, preference is to people who currently need the money due to the government shutdown or loss of SNAP benefits. And of course when it's done I will post about how awesome it is and you are. So if this interests you, please email me at [email protected].

Now the bad news: because I am a name-your-own-price lawyer and Mercy and I are paycheck to paycheck, our budget for this isn't much - a few hundred dollars. I know that isn't a lot for this sort of thing, but I want to be honest about it.

Hello Friends! I need a new website. I have a Squarespace site, but I need someone with actual artistic talent (and that's absolutely not me) to actually make it, you know, useful and good. I'd really like if a queer and/or racialized artist did it, and yes, I will pay for your work.

I actually think what ICE is doing under Trump 2.0 is shaping up to be a world-historic campaign of human rights violations in an advanced industrialized ~democracy I’m not sure I have many modern parallels. Japanese internment? Treatment of French-Algerians in the Algerian war? Those were wartime.

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

There’s no daylight between what Candace says here about “the Jews” & what Nazi propagandists & Father Coughlin said about the Jews in the 1930s. Her show is one of the top 5 “conservative” podcasts in the US. She has 5.5 million subscribers on YouTube and 7.3 million followers on X.

🚨NEW SMP ALERT!!!🚨 Hermitcraft Season 11 starts today! Here’s a little thread of everybody’s first episodes! Maybe use this opportunity to check out a new MCYT you haven’t watched before. :D

Gender is a performance and I'm a one-person show. *think i've made this joke before but i like it so here it is again

I'm actually pretty sure on some level that Pluribus is -about- Gilligan's hatred of AI and his fears of how it will affect human consciousness

Good interview with neurodivergent/autistic actor Matthew Tuck (recently in the action thriller Cleaner with Daisy Ridley), about how the entertainment industry can hire more actors on the spectrum, and how it can be better accommodating to them. www.spotlight.com/news-and-adv...

Watching the Spokane elections like some diehard sports lovers watch a game

I’m kinda a chocolate chip o holic and my wife gave me some vegan ones with no milk and they’re really good actually.

Stitch in Shifting Gears is a good example of humanizing representation of disabled people in entertainment media. Which might be ironic considering it's a Tim Allen show, but the writers themselves are more centrist I think. Either way they got disability representation right at least.

Vince Gilligan had the 'Pluribus' credits include 'this show was made by humans' "I hate AI. AI is the world’s most expensive and energy-intensive plagiarism machine. I think there’s a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit" (via Variety)

It's actually more than a little insulting that the supporters of a serial sexual harasser are now calling Mamdani a problem because of a six year age gap between him and his wife

Just need everyone to Google the name "Rosalind Franklin" at this moment.

The diagram for what Palantir does is like if Richard Scarry got super paranoid and did an Apocalypse picture book

Forgot to share this photo I took last week, spotted playground sidewalk during canvassing. Keep it up, we can make Spotify suffer even more~🎶

ironically despite really enjoying the show when i was watching it i actually never finished Better Call Saul. Someday I'll have to remedy that.

well said.

In any other hands Pluribus might be too outlandish of a concept or too goofy to really translate well to television, but Vince Gilligan truly has a new hit here and I'm already loving it. Interested to see where it goes.

I wish my Spokane Valley elections had gone as well as Spokane seems to have. We got mostly all the same people except Rod Higgins is now replaced with Mike Kelly. I was hoping Kristopher Pockell but guess not. So it's still Merkel and the people he fights with and now Mike Kelly to fight with too

Cregger has for sure earned the right to have a theatrical release now...they'll release Knives Out movies but not by the Weapons/Barbarian guy?

better things are possible

well one thing about the revival show is now i wanna try robatayaki food

well i'm finally to the King of the Hill revival episodes and this is jarringly different and strange from the original show.

Reminder!! Bluesky has a pronoun labeler you should really use! Only those who subscribe to this will see it so you should do that. Don't worry, that's all it does. Instructions are in the bio/first post.

If King of the Hill had ended with To Sirloin With Love that woulda been a perfect series finale.

I was looking forward to seeing Jaylah in a Star Trek uniform, but I guess that is never meant to be. www.inverse.com/entertainmen...

He was one of those good immigrant mice from a European country that is white people, i am sure if he'd been a muslim mouse from an Arab country he'd be a terrorist or something in the movie

If you think about it, Hamilton was one of the most regressive moments in the intersection of politics and art. A single play sought to transmute the shame Liberals had for this country’s history into a nationalism falsely informed by new racial mythologies. In this essay, I will—

Mamdani even goes further than some of us have in saying Israel the state has a right 2 exist, as well as condemning Hamas in total 4 Oct 7 attacks. If you're painting him as an antisemite all ur saying is antisemitism is any small criticism of Israeli policy or action. Which is cultlike behavior

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

If there's anyone regular Joe people on the right might listen to it's Jeff Foxworthy, which is what makes this video kinda radicalizing in a way. I quite liked it. Shared it on Nextdoor where most of my neighbors are right wingers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYT5...

My big tent thinking tends to be “I disagree with Marxist Leninists on a lot but I’m far more willing to work with them than capitalist liberals cause at least I know we are mostly working on the same goal.”

I’m not getting into a tent with people who don’t believe in women’s rights, trans rights, or stopping a fucking genocide.

One of the most wonderful aspects of realizing I'm AuDHD is that I got to drop my shields. I no longer care about looking and acting in the way neurotypicals look and act. I'm not "cool" or mysterious, I'm not going to pretend I care about something I don't and vice versa. It's so liberating.
