Husband, dad, professor. I won some money on Jeopardy once, that was cool. I cannot sanction your buffoonery.

a tweet from 2020: 

(james bond being beaten up by a goon)
GOON: bond you will maintain continuity
BOND: Never
GOON: the year is 2020 and you're roughly forty five, you were born around 1975
BOND: *spits out blood* i was a sea captain in world war two and i've been to space
GOON: you son of a bitch

The goof in OHMSS where Bond looks at the camera and says β€œThis never happened to the other fellow” comes off as pretty gauche but also represents a version of the franchise that wasn’t so self-serious or obsessed with capital-L Lore. It also happens to be one of the best films in the series.

lol, I’m sitting at the barber where my son is getting his hair cut and the radio is playing the Creedence version of β€œCotton Fields,” Baader-Meinhof is too real.

Something that I always find coming out of these episodes is that I have a greater appreciation for the artist, even ones like Creedence that I’m sort of lukewarm on. John Fogerty is kind of a tiresome asshole but goddamn did he write some indelible jams.

And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda
YouTube video by The Pogues - Topic And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda

The Pogues’ version of β€œAnd The Band Played Waltzing Matilda,” which is a great folk song but turns into a righteous screed against war in Shane McGowan’s voice.

A faithful, slightly slavish, yet still abstracted digital recreation of The Clash’s London Calling album cover. Featuring a guy lit by a spotlight on a stage in a very wide stance and bent over with his head down, holding an electric guitar like an axe by the neck just an instant before he smashes it into the floor. Small white type at the top reads β€˜Maybe it’ll’, then down the left side in pink and the bottom in green larger block lettering reads β€˜happen today’.

The SS created their own divisions because they were absolute dipshits. It’s like Iraqi Republican Guard or the IRGC.

i think i would honestly find this whole discourse more tolerable if people simply said what they were actually saying, which is that they think the Democratic Party is too associated with femininity (and secondarily, with black people) and that they want to correct this

Soldiers not getting paid on November 1st, which from my understanding Vought can't magic the money up to do a second time, seems like the sort of thing that may move the needle.

Even in movies that happen to be good that he's in, I wouldn't say that he's all that interesting or memorable in them. I mean it might genuinely be said that his acting peak was getting his face hit so hard in Fight Club that it gets rearranged.

Occam's Razor with Trump is that he's ineligible to run for re-election and he, being a pathological narcissist, simply doesn't give a shit how his behavior impacts his party in future elections. And because the party follows his lead in everything, they line up behind his depraved behavior.

Transparent screens! Near-future stuff always has transparent screens because it’s legible from a reverse angle, so you can see the actor and what they’re doing. Transparent screens would be a nightmare for most real-life applications (although they have a handful of specialized use cases.)

It is obviously insane to believe that Medicaid fraud by "able-bodied men without dependents" is a serious problem in need of attention but also the idea that basic medical care should be dependent on working is fucking stupid, nobody is grifting through life because they love seeing doctors.

Showing up to No Kings with a sign reading β€œmonarchy is an affront to human dignity but, when incorporated into a liberal democratic system, may nevertheless be a useful safety valve for nationalist and/or authoritarian impulses” and then getting clobbered by a Buttigieg-supporting grandmother
