This week (and next) we are covering the first season of Westworld, and @stardaddy.bsky.social joins us in the endeavor with a very special offer to Johnathan Nolan superfans. open.spotify.com/episode/17bZ...

81 years ago yesterday, Hitler received the news of what had been done to Mussolini's corpse. 81 years ago today, he arranged to have his body destroyed and shot himself in the head.

Wait, like spooky witches or like "cooking is a spell" witches?

The real bombshell here is a bag of chips being 10% of folks' "ultraprocessed food" intake. It's like telling me your Skyrim total playtime was "way too much, like at least 100 hours."

You: *says something serious* Someone else: *makes a joke* Me: "Hey, don't joke about this, it's serious. Please continue." You: *continues* Me: *makes a joke ironically*

Stop me if you've heard this one: The President, Vice President, and Speaker of the House walk into a party, against the advice of the Secret Service...

Just my opinion, but I feel like "Rambo: Last Blood" lacks some of the subtlety that previous Rambo movies were known for.

Children of Men but it’s about the youngest person on earth named Doris

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

Exactly one year ago today:

God's NOT Dead God's NOT Dead 2: Hell is NOT Other People God's NOT Dead 3: I Think, Therefore I Am NOT God's NOT Dead 4: Whereof One Cannot Speak, Thereof One Must NOT Be Silent

I don't understand The Pitt season 2. Why doesn't Dana, the most powerful of the Pitt's denizens, simply destroy her foes and take the Iron Throne for herself?

Has he tried declaring victory eleven times? Worth a shot.

Bugs Bunny disguised as a sexy lady could get Kash Patel to free every single person in federal custody

Hey, so that volleyball scene in Top Gun. Who are the people in the bleachers? Just local perverts, or...?

Bluesky's metrics are doing well to serve me pictures of miniatures because I like miniatures, but they keep fucking up and showing Battletech robots. Wretched things. They all look like a bunch of VCRs piled up beneath a child's motocross helmet

In Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) they had to break the "Home" naming convention of the series because no one under 50 knew what a "Brand New Home" was.

Interesting choice to start the adaptation at season 5.

Both Sinners and One Battle After Another are good examples of the adage “Dont make political art; make art politically.”

MirrorMirror.ai on my phone, who's the fairest one of all? Famed is thy beauty, user. But hold, a lovely Elon Musk I see, alas, he is more fair than thee!

What if in 20 years an actor named LeBron B. James comes along and people spend weeks arguing about whether him or Michael B. Jordan made better films

I just hope Iron Lung wins longest movie.

Remembering tonight that in multiple editions of D&D and at least one of pathfinder, it is possible to counterspell other people's weddings. There are problems with those games, but I honestly don't think that's one of them.

leaders like trump are why sun tzu had to write a bunch of advice like "don't write your enemy a letter detailing what tactics you really don't want them to do"

Here's a draft manuscript of the Magic: The Gathering roleplaying game from 1996, and I've giving it away as a fundraiser for Planned Parenthood, with permission from the authors. Not sure how much to ask for. Vanishingly rare. $1,872 raised so far. #mtg #ttrpg

Imagine turning this on and being like, "Time to watch the news."

Cosmically, there is something very darkly funny about spending an entire decade of American politics obsessed with repudiating the mistakes of the Iraq War, and then immediately doing it again at the first opportunity, but with even less justification, planning, strategy, or foresight.

@sorenbowie.bsky.social on a recent qq, you mentioned a show called Video Garage that sounded really interesting, but I haven't been able to find it. Do you have a link (or more keywords to google)?

Who decided that screaming was spelled ‘AARGH’? Because seriously, they were a genius.

Can't make Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Quest now cause woke.

Isekai'd Pam Bondi stomping up to every table in the Prancing Pony like, "EXCUSE Me!? Hello? Are you a wizard or a homeless?"

You can tell a lot about a man by how many times a day he listens to "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" before asking if you maybe have any other songs on your phone.

Donald Glover, please record commentary tracks for V and VI as Lando. HAN: Lando’s not system he’s a man… LANDO VO: Don’t let him fool you babies, Lando’s a system AND a man.

had a very respectful chat about theology tonight

Me when I get two shares on the same joke.

I like to imagine us all in Twilight Zone black & white, desperately screaming into each other's mouths while Serling monologues about futility.

every leftist i know is very excited about technology but unfortunately they want tech that improves society and makes people's lives easier and that's harder for wealthy prdophiles to build a trillion dollar industry bubble around

RFK looks like Ralph Steadman drew an Applebee's manager.

RFK looks like a mogwai drank raw milk after midnight.

RFK Jr looks like a cautionary vision the Ghost of Not Eating Roadkill Future would show RFK Sr.

RFK looks like Neelix had a transporter malfunction with a Cialis commercial.

RFK looks like a Joseph Beuys sculpture of Ted Kennedy.

RFK looks like he was denied emergency care because all the king's horses and all the king's men are out of network.

2/12/2026 - Lindenwold, NJ ICE agents chase children who were waiting at a bus stop for an elementary school These are elementary school-age children running from adult federal agents attempting to kidnap them

Call her back.

I know it looks like I'm getting old, but in fact I am infiltrating the olds as a spy and entryist.

The trump administration knows something the Dems won’t listen to. Stymieing behavior is enough to slow it or stop it. Taking your phone and paperwork, making you beg for it back is a pain in the ass. Do the same to ICE. Whether it’s legal or not arrest, strip them and keep their stuff as evidence.

whoever figures out a way to bundle independent journalism subscriptions will be a hero

I knew Patty Hearst was in on it ever since that hot dog made her lose control.
