How much did it take for Patrick Stewart to say β€œlewtenant” instead of β€œleft tenant” on the set of Star Trek the next Generation.

When I was a kid I thought divorces involved a ceremony where you break up in a church in front of all your family and friends

The power of humidity + infrastructure completely unequipped to cope with heat I guess.

How is the heat in Belfast more punishing than Albuquerque?!

Grateful to whoever lit up a joint on my street because at least something is masking the smell of sun baked split rubbish bags

It’s interesting comic book writers in the 50s wrote around superman coming from an inhospitable planet due to its β€œred sun” and being stronger from Earth’s β€œyellow sun”. Given all the current scientific debate about the (un)habitability of planets around red M dwarf stars.

Praying for @davehone.bsky.social in this trying time with the two largest most recent paleomedia projects featuring spinosaurus as an aquatic pursuit predator

If you can’t to the time (gestures to end credits of return of the king extended edition) don’t do the crime (gestures to myself)

Trigger warning for those of us in Academia.

Anyone else ever have that experience where you slip in the bathtub or shower and are overcome with the feeling that in some parallel universe you didn’t catch yourself and your parallel universe housemates are about to find your naked pruning corpse? Embarrassing

So Belinda got the worst on-screen companion-sendoff in the 62 year history of the show, right

If the walking with dinosaurs revival came out 5 years ago I would think it was the best thing ever. But I think Prehistoric planet has set the bar so high and WWD is falling short in most aspects.
