ROM: Spaceknight #32

This is the beginning of Rogueโ€™s hero turn that eventually leads her to the X-Men and personal redemption. ROM sees no evil in her and she always takes good choices here. Iโ€™m honestly shocked it comes from this!

Finding out fucking ROBLOX helped fund the destruction of the East Wing is wild, because I thought having two kids already maxed out how much I thought I could hate Roblox.

trying to explain how THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS is an interesting exploration of class, racism and inequality to my wife.

โ€œso itโ€™s not about cannibals?โ€

โ€œoh no, to be clear there ARE cannibals in this filmโ€

Nazi tat affair useful because anyone doing bizarre prevarications atm re how its totally normal to have a Nazi tattoo, good actually, not a big deal that'd matter in an election, if anything its cringe you care, etc etc, has revealed you never need to take their politics opinions seriously again.

It's really OK to change your mind when new facts are presented. It really is.

Sunday President diarrheas on the country, Monday President bulldozes White House, Tuesday President steals $230 million, Wednesday President... fucks a horse? Let's see if he fucks a horse.

A โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… review of I, Madman (1989) This is a rare, weird gem of a film that I canโ€™t believe has finally been released on Blu-ray and even more, I canโ€™t believe how well itโ€™s aged. Iโ€™d only ever seen it on VHS in the early โ€™90โ€™s and muc...

I love this move!

the symbolism of โ€œTrump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called โ€œNo Kingsโ€โ€™ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

If you're a writer/other creator in the United States, consider creating an LLC for your business and then signing up for a local area Chamber of Commerce. Many of them have health insurance plans that pool their members and members of other CoCs to create insurance efficiencies relative to ACA.

I went to the Louvre once and enjoyed it but honestly if I was there and a bunch of French investigators rushed in and said โ€œSacre bleu! there has been a heist!โ€ I would have had a much better time and would have given it five stars on everything

"Please provide a review of every experience you have" culture has truly peaked, I have just been asked to review the facility where I went to get a Coast Guard-mandated drug screening

Heard about the Louvre jewel heist and my first thought was โ€œfinally, some good old fashioned normal crimeโ€

after 6 weeks in a cast for a broken foot during which he acted like he had been decapitated, my cousin finally went to get the plaster removed, tripped on the carpet on the way out and now has a cast on the other foot and we are all the losers here

One of the sequels taking place in early WW II, โ€œThe Invisible Agentโ€, has my favorite Universal Monster line delivery:

โ€œYou Naziโ€™sโ€ฆ I pity the Devil when you start showing up in droves.โ€

the crowd sizes are obviously the highlight here but the fact that *this* is the public statement of the NYPD does not bode well for the regime. or, put another way:

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him

OCULUS is the best Stephen King movie that King didnโ€™t write, no wonder Mike Flanagan went on to be the best at adapting SK since Darabont

To the Editor:

I am one of these so-called profoundly autistic people this article describes. I cannot utter meaningful speech, and as a result, I was branded for years as someone with an intellectual disability and an I.Q. of 40. All this time, however, I understood everything that was going on around me. I just could not show it to others because of my deranged relationship with my own body.

I am concerned about the creation of a separate category, called profound autism, for those of us with the most severe disabilities. There are real differences between the sort of autism that I have and so-called Asperger's syndrome. But it does not help us at all to impose a hierarchy of lower and higher functioning. We need to figure out how to tap into the skills and insights of those of us who cannot talk, who make up anywhere from 25 percent to 40 percent of the autistic community, depending on the estimate.

For me, the way out of this dilemma was learning to communicate by typing. I suddenly went from being seen as intellectually impaired to taking college classes. I was never low-functioning, and neither are my autistic brothers and sisters without the ability to speak. I was just misjudged and ignored, and I fear that my fate will be the fate of many others termed low functioning in this new schema.

what a fucking thing, man

that 25 year old did more for the country in a week than most of the NYT op-ed section in a lifetime

all these people protesting today in groups of a few dozen on the main streets of small towns in deep red Trump country - where they will absolutely take shit from their neighbors about it at church tomorrow or at work on Monday or next time they go to the grocery store - are braver than the Marines

Deeply embarrassing for the right how much they need the left to exist but the left would quite happily consign the right entirely to the dustbin of history.
