My kid keeps comparing this to "Hot Fuzz," another movie they really like.

Uhm excuse me I think you forget... Woman Bad

Catherine O’Hara didn’t steal scenes she just showed up and ownership automatically defaulted to her

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 66, "Listen To Me And I'll Tell You A Story" by Ejiwa "Edge" Ebenebe: In the depths of the sea a little girl sits on what looks to be a giant pink/green octopus tentacle. Several other tentacles extend in the background, curling in the depths. Towards the front and surrounding the little girl is a school of pink fish, some of them stop to listen as she holds one finger up. She looks like she is about to start telling a story. On the lower right corner, another school of fish is making its way over the tentacles, towards the edge of the cover. The quote reads: '…but what is it like, having a war criminal as your past life?' Sadie Salazar, Licensed Life Speaker, should have been professionally above the prurient interest lighting her hazel eyes, and much too old for the giddy excitement that lifted the corners of her full lips."

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

We're watching the Minecraft movie and it's funnier than I thought it would be. Jason Mamoa is fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.

Just saw the sneak peek photos of Henry Cavill as The Highlander and they are low energy blah photos that are poorly lit, meaning its difficult to make out any details. No emotion, no atmosphere, just a guy.

american conservatism is not the preservation of fire but the worship of ashes

Thomas the Tank Engine/Thomas and Friends has been shitty CGI for a really long time now.

The stop motion stuff looks so great. It's a shame.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

If you haven't been to a hotel recently, rooms have gotten smaller to the point they feel claustrophobic.

This room looks spacious and luxurious in comparison.

Also? If you haven't done a deep dive on the brilliance of Dwayne McDuffie, you have so much richness waiting for you...

I've only watched a few episodes of Wonder Man but it's blowing my mind so far. Only one complaint...

~~ spoiler alert ~~

It's about the Department of Damage Control.

Comics god Dwayne McDuffie co-created Damage Control as an org that cleans up the damage after superhero battles. It was genius.

It's more of a character study than anything. A study of multiple characters.

Gov. Gavin Newsom: ‘I disagree’ with calls to abolish ICE The 2028 presidential contender came out against calls to dismantle ICE after an agent fatally shot a Minneapolis woman.

What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy

OTOH every person in their circle who had sex before marriage was a gross slutty slut.

Not Seth, though. Seth's sex-having was pure and good because he was actually fucking the concept of Art, not a person. Which is normal. That's a normal thing to think/do.

Amos and Edda profoundly fucked before they were married, even being filmed and broadcast on live tv. They decided to stop having sex between their engagement and wedding but then weren't able to do that (which was corny and also kind of charming).

And honestly, there's a huge overlap between the accounts that share 90% US news (with loads of AI) and the learned helplessness. Almost like those giant blue resister accounts have successfully rewired brains to just lay around scrolling and do literally nothing else. 🚬

What a lucky hamham!

Seriously one of the best comic strips around.

They've got the same level of common sense as a toddler.

"Maybe I -should- have married off the two people who fucked because one of them was a virgin and the other one felt bad about "deflowering her" and "is a gentleman." He's only MOSTLY gay, after all!"

It's the Wonder Man thing with Ben Kingsley.
