a man in an orange shirt is talking in front of a computer Alt: Fred Willard as Mike LaFontaine the "wha happen" guy from the movie A Mighty Wind saying "Hey! Wha Happened?!"

Showing as "deleted" for me. Did I miss something awesome?

Wu-Tang is for the children!

Pam Beasley from The Office saying "They're the same picture."

Nobody is interested when a manager brags about some project that they managed, so why are we supposed to be excited about some vibe-coded project somebody did?

Wow, this is a beatdown! You've given, uh, "less than stellar" reviews to a lot of them through this period. It seems like they had just generally lost their way, and had nothing interesting to say for quite some time.

It's interesting that a cabal of around 20 people can prescribe the national policy of at least one entire country. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the same cast of idiots was instrumental in the same action in the USA.

Your scene partner was very well behaved!

Welp, it was nice knowing you Walgreen's.

Frakking private equity.

Johnny Mnemonic. Gibson is such a great writer of prose, and a fantastic weaver of intricate intersecting storylines, but his screenplays are always *so* terrible.

They shouldn't have even made them. Frankly, they should have stopped at Return Of The Jedi. Anything beyond it was a waste of film, er, pixels. But of course, money.

This is a really excellent idea, I love it.

I hear that dihydrogen monoxide is in all sorts of stuff. Who will protect us from the madness?!

We've toured your dice collection a few times, "Let's tour Ginny's blade collection" could also be a fun video.

Wage Theft (when employers steal from employees) Minimum wage violations: $23.20 billion Overtime violations: $8.80 billion Rest break violations: $4.00 billion Off-the-clock violations: $3.20 billion Other types of theft Larceny: $5.30 billion Burglary: $4.10 billion Auto theft: $3.80 billion Robbery: $0.34 billion *all $ amounts are per year *all data is for the U.S. https://www.tcworkerscenter.org/2018/09/wage-theft-vs-other-forms-of-theft-in-the-u-s/

Wage theft is the largest form of theft in the United States, dwarfing other kinds of theft. Companies steal up to $50 billion or more from workers annually, with only a tiny fraction ever recovered and paid to employees. This perpetuates income and wealth inequalities.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights has Articles 13 and 14 which make that explicit, at least to governments that would recognize such rights.

No reason to stop there. Borders in general are kind of a dumb idea that only seem to promote insularity. I mean, QED.

We can only hope.

And "AGI" stands for "A Guy Instead".

Brain Salad Surgery (1973) by Emerson, Lake & Palmer on the Tech 12. Some iconic artwork by H. R. Giger, with his signature biological-meets-mechanical skulls. The jacket slits down the middle and the sides fold open. This is a release from New Zealand. It's a cutout too, so perhaps didn't sell so well there?

The inside of the foldout part with some less-disturbing H. R. Giger artwork, of a feminine-looking face with eyes closed. The poster with liner notes and the inner sleeve are peeking out to the right of the inner art panel.

The liner notes poster, folded out. Lyrics on the top three panels, around circular holes which mirror the circle on the front on the jacket. Portraits of the boys on the bottom three panels, Keith Emerson on the left, Greg Lake in the middle, and Carl Palmer on the right.

The liner notes, folded in half. The skull art from the jacket is on each panel, and the circular hole in each shows the eyes and nose of each of the band members from the unfolded poster.

#onmyturntable Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Brain Salad Surgery (1973). It's a gloomy day here in the PNW, seems ideal to get my prog on. It took me a long time to get the pun from "Karn Evil 9". #vinylsky

“Screenshot of a promoted Reddit post by u/AYAGDOS. The post reads: ‘Navigating gender dysphoria? Join our confidential, cross-country study of 18–25 year olds to tell your story, challenge preconceptions, and have YOUR experience reflected in the science.’ Below is a banner graphic with the Northwestern University logo and the text ‘TRANS OR GENDERQUEER? SHARE YOUR STORY.’ The image shows a close-up of a hand with light pink nail polish, partially painted blue, held up against a blurred background. A link to ayagdos.org and a ‘Learn More’ button appear at the bottom, along with Reddit vote and share icons.”

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

a video game screen shows a man in a red jacket and tie and says press to start Alt: The Smash TV final boss, Evil MC, shooting at the hapless blue player with his laser(?) eyes.

The best quarter-suck game was and still is Smash TV.

"BIG MONEY!! BIG PRIZES!! I LOVE IT!!"

I think there was a Natalie Portman countdown clock too. All of those were super-eww.

What is your favorite song over 10 minutes long?

As a prog fan, this is a target-rich environment. But the first side of my favorite Yes album will always take it.

That's not to mention the ~50% fees that they tack on to all marketplace vendors except themselves. Since they don't have to pay the fees, they get to mark up their own junk to siphon yet more money from the suckers who shop there.

YouTube video by El Train | Loop Kitchen How ‘Apache’ Became Hip-Hop’s National Anthem

It's probably arguable whether Amen or Apache is the most influential break of all time, but I love 'em both.

Things in Rings Figure out the "rules" for each ring in the Venn diagram by playing object cards!

I wasn't feeling up to running our RPG campaign today, so one of the games my gaming group played was Things In Rings. Super fun! Turns Venn diagrams into a game, apparently pretty inexpensive, and comes in a tiny box.

The feature that I would love is to mute posts that are just piles and piles of hashtags. Like, bro, if you can't get the engagement you want with one hashtag, or two tops, maybe your post isn't worth engaging with.

Karl Bartos solo material? I am intrigued...

I really hope Violence makes an appearance in the next Philosophy Tube piece.

Thievery Corp with Lou Lou... <swoon>

Ooh, Sade, I'm jelly. She's got such a rich, beautiful voice.
