[Youth pastor voice]: Let me tell you about someone else who vanished for several days, only to return on the day of the Rapture

"TYLENOL?! YOU'RE TAKING TYLENOL?!"

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

There ya go! (and dang will that return monologue be one everyone will be paying attention to)

New OTP incoming

Stands on rooftops: 📣 🗣️ 🗣️THERE IS NO LINK BTW ACETAMINOPHEN & AUTISM. IT HAS BEEN STUDIED FOR MANY YEARS IN MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. 🗣️THE ONLY REASON THEY ARE TALKING ABT THIS IS THAT THEY DO NOT WANT AUTISTIC PEOPLE TO EXIST. 🗣️IT IS EUGENICS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER. -EmilyPhD

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

So many people I know had never heard of him until his death.

I honestly think this same thing all the time. The most baffling part is that a lot of 21st century MAGA were all alive for all of this, as they are Boomers/Xers.

Van Damme to Neeson: “We’re not so different, you and I.”

You can also write the Nexstar/Sinclair affiliate directly, and/or the companies themselves if you want extra credit. Many have contact forms/info on their pages. Here's a script that should work either for an individual channel, or the company generally:

Once you know what your local Nexstar or Sinclair channel is, watch until you hit an ad break. Jot down who is advertising. Then contact the companies that are advertising, tell them you're boycotting, and feel free to use the attached script, and make changes if you like (in the alt text as well).

Been talking to people quite a bit about how it's easy to understand "cancel Disney+!" but harder to understand the initial and bigger problem is with Nexstar and Sinclair, so lemme make it easier. Find your local Nexstar channel Find your local Sinclair channel

While ppl are boycotting Disney a reminder that Sinclair and Nexstar are also the problem. They started this. Canceling Disney subscriptions hurts Disney but does nothing to Sinclair/Nexstar. We also need to boycott companies that advertise on Nexstar and Sinclair stations.

TONY KHAN HAS AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT was my favorite Disney Channel movie growing up.

Disney needs to get their shit together so that we can both finally have a Barbarian 4K disc and everyone me can feel comfortable purchasing it.

We're at the point where the Trump does something worse than Watergate daily, often multiple times a day. And none of it makes news; it's just normal now.

Just hilariously sloppy. He'll lie and pretend it was meant to be public, but he would NEVER post "it's killing our reputation and credibility."

What movie do you consider perfect?

this exists it is called thinking

entire press has gotten bullied into treating charlie kirk as if he was one of the most important americans alive and not a modestly popular podcaster

Thank you, @themattfowler.bsky.social for the awesome Predator 2 poster for my birthday. He was in town with a few days to kill!

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read. They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.

Very good reporting/analysis from @tvmojoe.bsky.social on KImmel/Disney/ABC that provides real answers to many of the "Why don't they just..." questions. www.vulture.com/article/bob-...

Ended up having to break up a cat brawl today. Fortunately, they didn’t injure each other with their claws. Me on the other hand… (other wrist?)

At least Trump's dropped the pretense that this is about Charlie Kirk and is instead really just about him not wanting to be made fun of.

It is fucked up what they did to the headphone jack

My god, the people at the Egyptian tonight not only got to marathon a bunch of Twin Peaks: The Return episodes, but hear Ray Wise sing Mairzy Doats?!?!?!!

Why yes, yes I am going to watch all 18 episodes of Twin Peaks: The Return at the Egyptian theater this weekend in three sittings. Tonight we begin with Parts 1-4. Let’s Rock!

THE HYPOCRISY IS THE POINT!!

If there's anything funny about this -- debatable -- it's that Trump has an entire team of Project 2025/Federalist Society ghouls who have painstakingly built a foolproof backroom legal system to legitimize fascism and then Trump just goes THEY CAN'T MAKE FUN OF ME I'LL SUE and gives it all away

TCA condemns ABC and Disney’s capitulation to the government’s demands of censorship.

Shockingly, it’s a bunch of freaking nerd stuff!

Really digging her whole “You’re not special!” approach.

My review of #Him, which never pays off its fun idea of combining football with a deal with the Devil horror story but at least has a dynamic Marlon Wayans performance youtu.be/puZOhtOuOAo?...

So far, no luck getting my mom's cat to be friends with our cats while we watch her, but she has found some new pals in our house at least.

Though definitely directly influenced by the minimalism of the Batman ‘89 marketing campaign (where that large gold Batman logo, without the actual title, sold the movie) this was still a very cool campaign too.

The Pomona Extension is my favorite conspiracy thriller

we wrote about this WH tactic recently. they’re asking journalists for expert source names and then using them to look up political donations in FEC records to try to discredit those sources as biased. www.npr.org/2025/08/18/n...

This may be the greatest @newbeverly.bsky.social double feature ever

This is the lead story in the New York Times. If you're in the business of communicating, whether through journalism, commentary, or art, this is the five-alarm fire. People are going to remember who spoke up and who stayed conveniently silent or postured about "neutrality."

As a huge fan of Sleepaway Camp, I found Return to Sleepaway Camp to be nearly unwatchable, so Hiltzik coming back again is not making me psyched.
