Ben!

Photo of a copy of Phenomenon on DivX, a failed video disc format that had a built-in time limit and its own special disc player.

Photo of two movies on Flexplay DVD, another failed format similar to DivX, except the time limit for it comes in the form of the disc eventually rotting. (Normally, this would take place about two days after viewing.)

i like to collect weird or niche things specifically for my media collection and two of the things i have on the list of stuff i want to get are DivX and Flexplay DVDs, purely for the fact that theyre a peek into an alternate nightmare world where video rentals de-evolved into pure disposable waste.

the continued capitulation of every corporation to fascism in pursuit of the almighty shareholder value is as unsurprising as it is blood-boiling

I always think about how, when you’re a kid, you wanna be like SpongeBob, but when you grow up, you end up feeling like Squidward instead.

AI industry horrified to face largest copyright class action ever certified Copyright class actions could financially ruin AI industry, trade groups say.

i want bluesky to stay small and be too weird and scary for brands, advertisers and politicians

That one wolf from that one film

when a quarter of the population wants to murder swathes of the rest of the population for rabidly evil and irrational reasons, solving this "division" via compromise is itself a lurid, genocidal fantasy.

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa/Mastercard situation and I'm here to remind you to call them! Keep those phone lines busy! Send them letters if you want! Don't do e-mail cause they'll just ignore you!

We need to fight this now and fight for long because otherwise things won't change.

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will:

MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR.

Measles cases have reached their HIGHEST point since the disease WAS ELIMINATED from the United States in 2000. We ARE at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.

Ive been trying harder not to fall into to doomerism but I still can't help but get depressed over the distinct lack of counter-action.

A handful of entertainment stars donating their spare funds to PBS could legit do wonders on its own, I am just saying.

We’ve hit $15k! Our main goal!
Thank you all so much for the support!

Separating art from the artist is for when things are products of their time and the creator is long since dead, not actively funding bigotry under the notion that anyone who purchases agrees with her.

Yeah wplace is pretty cool

You’ve had success having a point of view on your show, as Colbert has, at least in the ratings. Late night used to be broad, unifying entertainment. I know Jay Leno recently spoke on this topic, about making a show for everyone … I’m going to take a hard pass on taking comedic advice from Jay Leno.

John Oliver just says the thing. I'm happy for him.

Friendly reminder that school administrators tend to take complaints from parents much more seriously than the same complaints from teachers. So if your kids’ school district is using PragerU stuff, please speak up.

The last time we let Nazis get a foothold in “the market place of ideas” they tried to conquer the world. Wearing a Nazi insignia should be an arrestable offence and punching a Nazi should mark you out as a hero.
