I can't believe Universal Studios made a TV ad for the new Fast and the Furious coaster (you ride in cars that drift thru the corners) with Vin Diesel voice over (or a sound alike) and he doesn't say anything about it being "fun for the whole FAMILY".

🧵 It occurred to me that a lot of Troy McClure's films sounded like Star Trek episode titles. Here's a thread of my favorites. You May Remember Troy McClure From Such Films As:

Am I supposed to swallow that, or does it go in from the other end? Or is that not shown actual size?

This really is not surprising when you consider Spencer Prat's resume lists qualifications as: *Man *White

Shan Dian Qi Shi Da Zhan Di Yu Jun Tuan (aka Super Rider Against the Devils), 1976 German poster.

You should ask yourself why all of the people who are screeching about election fraud on social media are always unwilling to repeat these claims under oath. Let me help you: it’s because they know they’re full of shit. The entire purpose is to keep people angry.

Tired of seeing people begging for $10k Chinese EVs. You can get cheap used EVs for even less. Mitsubishi iMiev can be found for less than $5k. Nissan Leafs are $10k for practically new ones. The Chevy Spark EV slots in between them, even ones without the torque limiter with 400 ft-lbs at 0mph

The arsonist who unleashed huge destruction across Los Angeles in the Palisades fire, comes, like so many horrible things, from Florida, and was an attentive follower of Fox News.

Spencer Pratt is a rare instance in Los Angeles of something shitty not getting greenlit.

I've checked, and before this ruling if you wanted a condom in Connecticut you had to run to New York like we do to buy been on a Sunday or after 8pm (they repealed those blue laws too now, I think. But you still can't buy wine or liquor at the grocery store)

I am fine with paying for sites that I read. I pay for MANY of them. But they ALL let me read several articles before asking me to pay. Showed me that they'd be worth it. Outlets, I'm begging you, allow a few freebies before you paywall. No one is going to buy something they've never seen.

It's never not bonkers that human life expectancy was ~34 in 1870 and then* someone was like "maybe water should be clean" and someone else was like "let's…wash our hands?" and someone else was like "vaccines tho!" and someone else was like "uh, mold kills bacteria?" and now we mostly live past 70.

As a school bus driver, not running over the kids is pretty much the #1 rule of the job.

this is like the Platonic thomas chatterton williams joint. as always, the locus of responsibility in american society is the "woke" left, and as always, williams believes history began sometime in the 2010s.

How did this not even make national news?

The most unforgivable thing to me is how AI ruined pet videos. Now I must look at every asshole cat and scared dog with suspicion, and that alone is makes me want to do horrible things to the people responsible for this tech and its proliferation!

Hat.

Isn't eating a 72oz Big Texan steak a requirement to get on the ballot in Texas?

This is a good movie, but for Gen-X Fred MacMurray was the dad in My 3 Sons, so it takes a while to accept him in this role. Younger viewers will have no problem thinking he'd kill for Barbara Stanwyck.

Visited Grandpa today. Bless him. He told me that people were being jailed for seven years for repairing their own cars, and then fell asleep in mid-sentence. Hang on, that was the President of the United States.

The left abandoned healthy masculinity? That's news to most of my left leaning Gen-X friends.

Basically every national story in politics these days is “unqualified person terrible at job, disaster results; person promoted”

are you just going to do this for every generation

There aren't nearly enough saxophone solos in songs anymore.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

This is Ramsey. He is a mail delivery dog. Shipping is free, and while packages might not be handled with care, they are handled with enthusiasm. 14/10 (TT: rhiannoninthe904)

Do you ever think about just how weird it is that downtown L.A. is 15 miles from the beach in Santa Monica and like 25 from the beach/port in Long Beach/San Pedro. Whenever I see pictures of Chicago or Miami or Manhattan I think about this.

The government ought to recruit Sade and this sax player to help get birth rates up

Did he have to pay extra if he wanted his name on it?

It looks like the plane got sleepy and went down for a nap

Wait, they put French fries on pizza in Italy?

I really wish the BSky algorithm running the "discover" feed would learn to distinguish between cats and dogs, but also, between posts about cute pets I want to see, and posts about how someone is sad and had to put their dog down

I am bothered by the fact that anyone in government can afford to pay a $2M fine, especially when they have all this access to state secrets

Lewis arriving at the track today 🏍 #F1 #MonacoGP

yeah, but at least he will be dead

I think we as a society need an apology from Oprah for creating Dr Oz, Dr Phil, and other people she catapulted to fame.

I am no longer liking all of these birthday dog posts that promises to give the dog frozen blueberries. I feel like the dogs are getting too many frozen blueberries.

It is amazing that charts like this are not enough for some people

Bill Pulte now runs American intelligence . Bills dad, Mark Pulte, is one of 3 men in the staged auction of the Maison de l’Amitié, Epstein setting the floor, Pulty the counter-bid, DT the buyer who laundered $50M before the house was flipped to Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev.

“The slot formerly occupied by Morris Day and the Time will be filled by the time alone. Not the musical act but the ineluctable, relentless passage of time.” @petridishes.bsky.social on what's left of the killer lineup for America's 250th celebration: theatln.tc/fE3RSJZO

Stan Lee managed to gobble up the lion's share of credit for creating the Marvel Universe. In doing so he largely squeezed Jack Kirby out of the picture, relegating him to mere artist rather than the co-creator he was. The Smithsonian is taking one small step towards restoring the balance.

I have an all in one injet printer scanner from HP that requires a subscription to their "Instant Ink" service. Somehow in the year I have owned it, it raised itself from the 10 pages a month to 50 a month tier. It was easy enough to change back, but I never changed it.

Today at the Mt. Baker light rail station, a car went North, up the tracks towards the Beacon Hill tunnel. According to a police escort, there were no injuries. #Seattle #BeaconHill #BreakingNews
