A captcha on Letterboxed that asks to label aliens but just shows a picture of Emma Stone that makes sense if you've seen the film Bugonia

Does anyone know what was in the sandwich that Sandwich Guy threw at that federal agent?

Cause I think that would make for a funny 'Let's Try' video if anyone has the desire to make one.

Threads screenshot: ceforys 2h

In honor of Threads going all in on Edmund Fitzgerald lore this year, l'd like to share one of my strangest parenting moments. We took my then 4 year old son and his little buddy (whose special interest was maritime disasters) to the Dossin Great Lakes Museum in Detroit for a screening of a documentary about the wreck; we got some LOOKS when we showed up but the kids were great, save for one moment when my kid decided to LICK A PIECE OF RECOVERED DEBRIS as it was being passed around.

In case you wondered, there's probably exactly one person who has licked the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Everyone says calls your senators and you absolutely should but my senator, Chuck Schumer, always shuts down his phone lines and voicemail when he pulls shit like this.

a brown bear is standing on its hind legs in front of a window Alt: A bear walks by suspiciously on its hind legs.

I'm watching the movie Grizzly (1976) and only the novelization gives any specific reasons why the bear attacks people, one of which is a woman was experiencing PMS. 10/10

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

I seem to remember whole congressional hearings about the terrible destructive force that is violence in video games and yet, there is a very strange quiet about an unregulated technology that coaches people to suicide.

Stop saying the cop was assaulted by a sandwich

You have to use the passive voice. The officer was impacted by a sweet onion chicken teriyaki of unclear origin

Four union media workers were fired, in violation of their rights at workβ€”that is a canary for all of us in this business. If we lose power at work, trust me it’s not any easier to hold anyone with political power to account.

That being said, I would like more Star Trek audio dramas in the vein of this but original stories or expansions on existing characters like Doctor Who.

I think it's just been so long & every Trek fan has imagined their own version of these events that nothing could ever live up to it & they were so limited in what could happen because it was always heading to Star Trek II.

Paradise | Episode 1 | Star Trek: Khan
YouTube video by Star Trek Paradise | Episode 1 | Star Trek: Khan

Now that the entirety of #StarTrekKhan has been released I feel I can finally talk about my thoughts on it, which are:

It was fine. Kinda unnecessary but it gave Khan more depth & McGivers an actual death. Would have liked to see more post-Venture Khan though.
