Galaxy Quest, like Iron Giant , Fury Road and Tremors, is one of those rare movies without flaws. It's not just good, but miraculous.

Of course you want a big battleship with big guns even though it's 2025, you're 12.

a penny for your thoughts…

Worth noting, I guess, that inside of a year we've gone from administration officials taking selfies of themselves at CECOT and bragging about how it's hell on earth to now getting their horrible little media worms to kill stories about it

it is almost Christmas which means it’s Muppet Christmas Carol season and that, in turn, means it is time to revisit this delightful interview with Michael Caine, who loves everything about that movie even more than you do

I'm so fucking tired. "Are Democrats even 1% better than Christian Dominionists using every institutional tool they have to eradicate us?" is the only question anyone needs to ask, and the answer to that question has always been fucking "yes."

‘No! Not Larry Summers!’ Wails Devastated Nation

The Epstein file is the only thing Trump has ever taken his name off of

1984 type shit at fanfest

This studio awards-season email is really matching the current mood in a way I’m not sure they intended.

it is 2022. I am watching people yell about the economic data & the vibecession discourse it is 2023. I am watching people yell about the economic data & the vibecession discourse it is 2024. I am watching people yell about the economic data & the vibecession discourse it is 2025. I am watching...

The de facto president btw

Everyone is understandably sharing the Miller quote, but I found this response from photographer Christopher Anderson to be notable, too.

The Story of Calphis 1-3 #hibourverse #NalinaofCalphis #illustration

Me, still wearing basketball shorts in December,

There are so many more interesting photos she's taken

I've made it a personal goal to stop using the term "content" when referring to media made by artists. The word implies mass-produced filler and calling someone's hard work their "content" has started to feel kinda like an insult. Like human art made strictly for quick consumption

For anyone who thinks resistance is futile, I would like to bring your attention to just how much less ambitious the administration’s domestic crackdown goals have become in recent months. They’re unpopular, fighting on all fronts, and on the retreat.

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

there a trillion magazines now called like ThoughtThink. Unsaid. CensoredMedia. The Believer. CrossingLines. The New Principles Of Thought Project. and every single one has written the same article a million times over that is just "i had to take a diversity training at work and it was annoying"

Premium newsletter: my 18k word AI Mythbusters: There’s no insatiable demand for AI compute, AI is not “getting exponentially better” or “tricking humans,” we haven't “lost control of AI,” AI doomerism is a grift, and there is no “GenAI arms race with China.” www.wheresyoured.at/ai-mythbuste...

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

The civil war on the Right is between those who hate me and everybody I love because we're Jewish and those who hate me and everybody I love because we're rootless cosmopolitans.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago. His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship." He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

Why is this tiny gesture so funny

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

He was saying trump is Hitler in 2016 and never stopped saying it

It's really depressing to watch leftists turn against Death With Dignity because they trusted the Twitter slop arguments against MAID (The Illinois law is very restrictive: Only patients who can give consent at time of treatment w/ a terminal condition and 6mo prognosis.)

old twitter was like a place in interwar berlin, paris, or shanghai people have romantic memories about in spite of witnessing knife fights between prostitutes daily and heroin junkies overdosing

This is a Soviet OZM-72 bouncing betty style mine modified to be shot out of an RPG. Unsure which side made this. The outer sleeve is missing, meaning it won't bounce on impact, but its explosive charge and striking elements are still in place. It's an extra huge frag RPG warhead, essentially.

Newly Unsealed Batch Of Epstein Estate Photos Contains Rare Holographic Dershowitz

the 6-7 phenomenon is in no way different from any other catchphrase that kids have yelled out at any point in the last hundred years, there's no daylight between that and when i was in high school, the year straight where every guy kept yelling "i'm rick james bitch"

The period of despair is over.

Shot. Chaser.

Just got an urgent dark web alert from my credit card company. Someone found out which email address I used to order Under Armour boots in like 2018.

before becoming prime minister of the Netherlands, Ruud Luubers was a fictional ska band that appeared in a series of Trojan condom ads

My new fav genre is when this human cold sore gets all defensive when people point out the… dozens? Hundreds? Of documented times she has harassed, threatened, or encouraged threats against other people in the same vein that she is now on the receiving end of.

Rep. Thanedar has filed two articles of impeachment against Hegseth, one for "murder and conspiracy to murder" and the other for "reckless and unlawful mishandling of classified information." 🧵 (Full disclosure: I was happy to consult a bit on drafting this.)

so insanely fucking real for this

Wow: Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named for Holocaust survivor Raphael Lemkin, who coined term "genocide") calls Clinton's remarks "genocide denial." "Young people in the US are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide – something the Secretary might consider doing as well."

You can't coexist with people like this

The EU was created in by people who lived through WWII and saw political and economic integration as a means to bringing peace and stability to the continent. It is being opposed by Putin, Musk and the others who support Neo Nazis in Europe.

How it feels every time I try to eat better:

being in any way impressed by hanania or seeing him as a voice worth hearing is definitive evidence that your brain is a perfect sphere

Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.
