The Boys' latest episode references people being gassed in Dachau. Actually the Nazis had inmates make a gas chamber, only they made design flaws that kept having to be undone. It did get built but wasn't actually used because by then the Allies were on their way. Many deaths there but not by gas.

It's surprising that there hasn't been any Muppet Show news lately. The special earlier this year was both a critical and ratings success. Hope it's on the Fall lineup next month.

Regardless of whether Palin or Gentry Gevers and Gabrielle Yoder in the media tags came up with this, I find myself in the surreal position of finding something Palin posted really funny.

RIP children's show co-creator (with brother Marty) Sid Kroft (Land of the Lost, HR Pufnstuf, The Banana Splits, The Bugaloos, etc). If you want to get someone to stop taking psychedelics, have them watch a Kroft series under the influence. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/s...

RIP Valerie Lee (Shepard), one of the Munchkins in the Wizard of Oz www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

I have a question about Truth Social as someone who doesn't have an account of my own, but has seen screenshots of Trump's account: Is there no paragraph break function or is single paragraph just his preferred style?

I'm going to say something nice about Victor Orbán for the first and probably only time: conceding defeat is a very low bar, but he managed to do something that the POTUS could probably never do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS7j...

In the past I've posted funny AI generated art. I won't do that now even though it creates better images than I can. I have concerns about AI's impact on the environment and use of the styles of legitimate artists, plus government ties. And frankly I'm tired of seeing AI forced upon me everywhere.

Glad they made it home safely www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4Z9...

I posted this a few days ago but I made the background look more space-like. Cartoon done in MS Paint, no AI.

Seeing what's happening with the US now reminded me of this scene from Watchmen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShTV...

If you're watching Daredevil: Born Again and seeing parallels with ICE, it seems they were unintentional. I guess it shows that sometimes writers subconsciously pick up on where things are headed, because shows aren't made in a vacuum. www.thewrap.com/creative-con...

Perhaps the strangest US story this year so far has been when disaster relief chief Gregg Phillips claimed to have teleported 50 miles to a Waffle House.

When the POTUS says on social media "Thank you for your attention to this matter" like he's reaching out to an employee, who exactly is he asking to address his posts?

Over 1400 photos I took yesterday at the No Tyrants Rally in Victoria, BC #NoKings #NoTyrants www.flickr.com/photos/24917...

The kind of story we need now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RLb...

When posting No Kings photos and videos I recommend using both #NoKings and #NoTyrants since countries with monarchs are participating as No Tyrants, even in cases like Canada where the monarch is purely ceremonial.

Former film credit Gene Shalit (known for his distinctive mustache) turned 100 today! parade.com/news/today-s...

Tyler is a US citizen who started out just doing lighthearted videos about learning about Canada, but over the past year his videos have shifted in tone as the US' treatment of Canadians and others has deeply affected him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJvy...

An interesting bit of trivia about Valerie Perrine: in 1969 she was supposed to attend a dinner party but had to bow out due to work. Unfortunately for her boyfriend, the Manson Family attended that party. so that work shift extended her life by about 57 years. RIP. people.com/valerie-perr...

RIP Valerie Perrine (Eve Teschmacher in Superman:The Movie; Samantha Simpson in Can't Stop the Music) www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

RIP Sam Keith, co-creator of the Morpheus version of the Sandman bleedingcool.com/comics/sam-k...

This is sad to hear. His only mistake was not being so blunt that no one could twist his words. He did his best to bring a corrupt president to justice. RIP

I'm not sure how much I want to say publicly, but after today I have a greater understanding as to why people might not want to keep white nationalists in their lives even if they used to be close friends. Close before they went down that rabbit hole I mean.

I won't give it name recognition, but I found out today that Val Kilmer's daughter gave consent for an AI version of her dad to star in a movie. I won't be watching that one even secondhand.

The one good thing about the current rainstorm where I live is the previous rainstorm got someone's plant soil on my balcony and this one is washing that away.

Obscure Pop Culture Song 26: Another case where people know the melody without lyrics but fewer have heard it with lyrics: Goodnight, but Not Goodbye from the Star Wars Holiday Special: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6K6...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 25: From Mystery Science Theater 3000 but riffing on music from Star Force (Fugitive Alien II), Fugitive Alien Song (Medley): www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie58...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 24: SNL's Recurring Characters for Unity song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRSb...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 23: An homage to Bye Bye Birdie, the Patio commercial song from Mad Men: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Dx_...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 22: Now You're a Man (the theme to Orgazmo). Note that the lyrics and images are played for NSFW laughs: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiXa...

Having just read the Swamp Thing Bronze Age Omnibus, I think Martin Pasko's run deserves more love than it gets. Some of the execution is flawed but it would probably be much more highly regarded if it didn't come right before Alan Moore's run.

I deleted my post about the doc Melania and the Oscars because it proved to be inaccurate. In my defense it sounded like something the POTUS would do.

Obscure Pop Culture Song 20: Name Your Poison from Return of Captain Invincible. The singer is Christopher Lee. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxR3...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 19: From Cannibal! The Musical again: When I Was on Top of You www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvk-...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 18. Another song that maybe isn't great but you won't forget it: Jimmy Pop from Kid Super Hour with Shazam! (jump to 3m55). www.youtube.com/watch?v=a19t...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 17: While the Star Wars theme is very well known, the version with Princess Leia singing Life Day lyrics to it from the Star Wars Holiday Special is more obscure. Not necessarily a great song but interesting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRrm...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 16: A Musical Tribute to Frank from Mystery Science Theater 3000 www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0DH...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 15: Baby Merchant from the short lived Cop Rock. This one's arguably a bit better known than some of the others because it was shown on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9pu...

Obscure Pop Culture Song 14: Night After Night from Laverne & Shirley. Note that the lyrics are deliberately a bit sexist because of the characters doing the singing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLTx...

This does take a little of the sting out of Buffy: New Sunnydale not going ahead. www.youtube.com/shorts/gfK-s...

Disappointed that Buffy: New Sunnydale is not being picked up by Hulu. I respect that some fans of the old series didn't want to watch a continuation, but the new series would have been there for those who did and for those who didn't, the older material would still exist unchanged.

A question for US people: even before more recent events brought church and state closer together, your coins say "In God we trust". Since coins are minted by the government, doesn't that violate your separation of church and state?

There's a guy in this video who rants about the Antichrist, and he's one of the sanest people. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AI-...

This may not be a smoking gun, but at the very least should be the start of a new investigation.

Obscure Pop Culture Song 13: While the main theme to The Greatest American Hero is well known, more forgotten is the baseball themed song from one episode, The Game Goes On www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQRo...
