Mackie Mech appreciation post #battletech

If they don't include the line, "Somehow, Dark Helmet returned," what even is the point of this movie?

We already know Amelia Earhart was abducted by the Briori along with 300 other people and taken to a planet in the Delta Quadrant

Its always the people you most suspect.

circling back to this the people who just lost interest the subject one day after spending months writing shit like this are the worst

This is really bad. It won’t get the popular opposition the Kimmel incident did, but it’s way more sweeping and authoritarian. This is an effort to bring the full force of government down on any and all opposition to this administration. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Post someone who looks good in white 🤍

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours without prep: 1. Star Trek 2. Battleships 3. The Pacific Theater of WW2

It is not a coincidence that most of the videos you see of ICE agents using excessive force seem to feature unarmed women half their size. 🙃

In the words of our lord Diane Nguyen from BoJack Horseman: I can't believe this country hates women more than it loves guns.

Congrats Dems, you just handed the largest propaganda tool imaginable to Trump.

Kamala Harris explaining in her book why not a single Palestinian or Arab American was allowed to speak at the DNC.

Tylenol wrote "Four and a Half Vulcans"

“Oh, you’re debating how effective concentric attacks against Soviet tank armies at the end of their offensives were?” Nope

Why on Earth would I want to save him?

I think the GOP is really overplaying its hand with all the Kirk stuff.

Gary Cohen wasn't sold on how the Cubs and Matt Shaw handled his absence to attend Charlie Kirk's memorial. "I don't want to talk about any of the politics of it, but the thought of leaving your team in the middle of a race for any reason other than a family emergency, really strikes me as weird."

Humans in The Transformers have no sense of security. They're always bringing the tape recorder they found to classified tests.

Listening to Doctor Who Big Finish in which the Doctor forgets he’s in the 90’s so the person asked him what he means by the cloud. Kinda reminds me of this.

Reupping this story from @majorityreport.bsky.social @samseder.bsky.social ! Tensions between West Wing/VP are normal, but the Biden White House went out of its way to minimize Kamala Harris. So much so it was weird. I don’t know the political purpose this memoir serves, but… (1/2)

The United States if Tylenol Actually Caused Autism

RIP Rudi. 15 years ago, ESPN talks about this all week. NFL pregame shows too. Now none of them give a fuck. Too awash in gambling cash to risk pulling back the curtain. It's just "the price we pay" even though the yipping heads & team owners don't have to pay it. www.huffpost.com/entry/rudi-j...

Hey, this is a great podcast for sci-fi geeks like us. I've listened to more than 40 episodes in the last week.

I suspect we are, probably for our own mental health, underestimating the degree to which the Trump administration is dominated by the worst swingers imaginable

Schumer and Jeffries on Thursday

Jeffery Epstein's close personal friend says 12 is the age to start worrying about sexually transmitted diseases. Interesting.

Same picture...

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Seeing the governor of Illinois quoting Andor wasn't on my bingo card.

"Are ghost candles a fire hazard?" Is that a real candle that looks like a ghost or a candle in another plane of existence that looks like a ghost and was lit by a ghost or did the ghost light a real candle in our plane of existence and the appearance of the candle is irrelevant. Help us help you.

EXCLU: @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will announce today he is cancelling a televised town hall with WABC News planned for Sept. 25 in the wake of the network suspending comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show last week. www.amny.com/news/mamdani...

find me another Dem that wouldn't be too afraid to do this. seriously.

"I have spent the last few weeks addressing and preparing for a military invasion by the President of the United States. No, I’m not a soldier or a foreign adversary. I’m the Governor of Illinois"

Incredible in IMAX

If they're going to try and retcon Charlie Kirk, then we should try to retcon him too.

You can try to appeal to miniscule number of Republicans or you can try to a much larger bloc of non-voters and Democrata keep losing by doing the former.

FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states
