Is there any franchise that's made more money and had less impact on wider culture than Avatar?

It's good for people, especially young people, to see how miserable Trump is. This is a man who has achieved unimaginable levels of wealth and power but can't experience a single ounce of joy, even on Christmas. It shows what happens when you pursue your goals through hatred, corruption and evil.

Have they considered crying about it?

In A Christmas Story, the only adult character that Ralphie doesn't tell about the BB gun is his dad, who buys it for him.

hey new bluesky users! welcome to the site. make sure to tag all posts with #post

I'm assuming she comes with the car?

As the publishing industry devours itself with AI and throws money at Fettermans and Nuzzis, bored lawyers writing novels in their spare time will continue to be the backbone of American literature.

Remember to keep Christ in Christmas by: 1. Scattering the proud in their conceit. 2. Casting down the mighty from their thrones. 3. Lifting up the lowly. 4. Filling the hungry with good things. 5. Sending the rich away empty.

It's Christmas Eve, not Christmas Steve.

Here’s my Evangelion/Nirvana tribute piece! I had a blast tossing in as many Easter eggs as possible. Please take the time to look through if you’re bored #evangelion #nirvana #edwinhuang #reiayanami #asukalangleysoryu #marimakinami

Sounds like someone isn't a true gamer (never punched themselves in the face because of something that happened in a video game).

Male statistician or female tattoo artist?

When you absolutely, positively, have to get your holiday party guests the HELL out of your house

Just heard a recent recording of O Holy Night that changed "the slave is our brother" to "the enslaved are our brothers" and let me just say no, you don't have to do that.

Bordighera, Italy, by Helmut Newton, 1982.

Is the MTA making merch with the F M Swap icon cause they should be

Yes, by all means, everyone should be investing in stocks. We're gonna need them.

The Sarah McLachlan/Barenaked Ladies recording of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is peak Canadian blandness. Absolutely nothing going on. Pure gristle. It sounds like a high school theater couple doing karaoke. It's bad.

incredible stuff over at r/ididnthaveeggs It’s a eggnog recipe

I think it's kind of beautiful that this was Rob Reiner's final line on television

one of the funnier aspects to the AI backlash is the fact that they're negatively polarizing much of the tech enthusiast demographic against them by making hobbyist PC building functionally unaffordable

This is Trump all the time.

I've been watching 30 Rock and it's amazing how it predicted, first as satire, so many crappy things about the 2020s. E.g., one of the biggest movies of 2025 is a movie based on a musical based on a [book based on a book popularized by a] movie.

He was buddies with a pedo but in a tasteful, honorable way

Me: I know pantyhose are a little dated but I love how they even out my skin tone Teller: So is this not a robbery? Me: No, it is

It was so wholesome that RUN-DMC sampled it... 🗣It's Christmas time and we got the spirit 🎄

One of my favorite Rob Reiner moments is this clip of him getting absolutely nailed by a Carol O'Connor ad lib and masterfully playing it off to save the scene. He was a brilliant comedic actor in addition to a genius director.

these mfers love talking about God while radiating evil like an unshielded reactor core

I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

yeah I'm involved in unethical non monogamy. no no, nobody's cheating on anyone else; me and my polycucle just operate a whaling ship.

Big Gart news.

Shrooms 2 just dropped

Fittingly, Trump in his cowboy hat looks just like Fred Phelps.

Annual reminder that Thurl Ravenscroft, the singer of "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch," was the original and longtime voice of Tony the Tiger, and in fact came up with the slogan "They're grr-eat!"

It's so fucked up to have been a kid during the D&D is the devil freakout and the Tipper Gore dirty lyrics freakout and live to see the teen suicide machine get such a pass.

It would have made perfect sense for Colorado Democrats to do mid-cycle redistricting. Yes, Colorado Democrats want to maintain a reputation of moderation. But the Colorado GOP is insane. No reason not to freeze them out of power.

Chun-Li is an icon for those of us who still wear nude or tan-tinted pantyhose and our community strenuously objects to these leggings in the new Street Fighter movie.

Nothing but respect for MY Chun-Li.

Pornhub has released the top most searched terms in the United States and every state searched “industrial crane lifting a dark and dripping shape from an unquiet sea” bc America is going through it,

This probably costs like $23.

Every presentation about using AI in the legal profession is 10% "This is an amazing tool and you absolutely have to use it or your career will crumble to dust" and 90% "Here are all the things you should never do with AI and all the horrible things that can happen if you use it slightly wrong."

Just normal Catholic stuff.

“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.” Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻

I don't think the Democrats have the stomach for it but courtpacking is no longer enough. There needs to be a slate of Democratic Justices who will re-open all the cases that relied on Trump appointees for their majority rulings and nullify them where necessary.
