Don't mind me just tearing up a little at the sweet sad romance of Roland and Tracy in XFiles Season 1 Ep 23

This is both a perfect example for intertextuality in a lecture on the role of media and popular culture in US foreign policy and a bat-shit crazy piece of White House communications in wartime:

Pete Hegseth on Monday: "If you kill Americans.. anywhere on earth we will hunt you down without apology & without hesitation and we will kill you"

Guardian yesterday: "Senators demand investigation after ninth American killed by Israeli settlers or soldiers in West Bank"

I’ve still never seen it cause I keep mixing it up with Citizen Kane which I honestly just have no desire to see

@overstreet.bsky.social i think you'd actually quite enjoy this film if you haven't seen it yet.

I'd actually say "existential trip into madness" is a bit of a misnomer, yeah Hyrns loses it a bit, but the central core of this is very hopeful...very much about belief, and hope, and man's search for meaning.

Yep, still one of my favorite films.

‘HOPPERS’ is now Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes at 96%

• Highest-rated original Pixar film in almost 10 years.

Juries kinda still out on the Scrubs reboot, humors the same but the stories kinda feel cynical

I kinda wish when you on a feed it would immediately add the hashtag when you type a post instead of having to add it every time

Tubi seems to have the whole Karpovsky library on it, so maybe i need to get around to watching his other films too

Woodpecker (2008) Hyrns and his cohort, Wesley Yang, obsessively search the Arkansas bayou for proof that the ivory-billed woodpecker is, in fact, not extinct.

I dunno when Woodpecker was added to Tubi but I'm absolutely rewatching that tonight. Kinda a perfect film. At least I remember it being so

Part mockumentary, part existential trip into madness as Hyrn's character becomes more and more obsessed with finding this bird...

This is utterly unacceptable.

Even more on brand. Have his main weapon he carried around be The Penetrator

Donald Trump might be added to GTA as an evil character named The Warden of Alcatraz

Deserved.

oh this place is a ticking time bomb. I see

I haven’t really followed him for a few years. That sucks

For being on the Copaganda show?

People should be asking better questions like

Why are they underutilizing Jay-Den’s character so much and is this a sign they’re gonna start walking back his ongoing narrative and just make him more of a background cameo character

Wait what about 3D space?!

The original image was a bubble, they just showed a ring and called it a wall to make more sense to 2D thinking minds

Why was the Federation messing around with synthetic Omega particles? Well see during The Burn they were a lot more militaristic and having space nukes was like kinda on brand.

A ring around the whole Federation space!?

Federation is still small and regrowing since The Burn

Ocam was likely already on Betazed with his dad, Lura Thok was tasked with offloading cadets, Kyle is in The War College and they were also all likely already off ship.

The Discovery is still around with its spore drive and who knows maybe it will be rescuing but the mayday was JUST sent fhs

“Where’s Ocam? Where’s Lura Thok? Where’s The Discovery? Where’s Kyle?”

Lotta people asking questions the episode or previous episodes and shows already answered.

so many people have headed calls to move off Google to places like proton. Actual useful advice is that you try to keep as much sensitive info offline as possible.

That news about proton turning over payment information is why it makes no sense to spend every day yelling at people online about *digital security.*

Whenever a movie deals with themes of sexual violence, people start making broad generalizations about how survivors "should" or "do" respond to a film. How a survivor reacts to a film featuring SA is the correct response, and sometimes survivors have reactions that are diametrically opposed.

Hate seeing sexual violence depicted on screen and want nothing to do with it because it's super triggering? Correct.

Feel validating catharsis seeing it depicted on screen because it gives you an outlet to work through your feelings? Also Correct.

Somewhere in between? ALSO CORRECT!

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"

counterpoint!

the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

Why bring Franken up in the first place. What was even the point being made here?

I love when corps just delete a post and pretend it didn’t exist like no one knows how to screenshot.
