I just found out today that DEATH WISH director and notorious prick Michael Winner once directed and starred in a series of insurance ads in the UK that were 1) so popular they inspired their own catchphrase, and 2) feel as deranged and ill-conceived as one of his movies. youtu.be/efl5pFTFnBU?...

Wow. While we wait for the few remaining ballots to be counted, we feel like we have won this race. The recent drop put us nearly 1,400 votes ahead, just under the .5 percent threshold for a mandatory recount.

WWI is a topic where you simply cannot imagine how anybody could be that stupid and reckless and yet they keep digging that big old hole β€˜o stupid, beginning with two would-be caesars having a slap fight via telegram.

DS9 "The Search, Part II"; Garak in the Replimat, leaning in, with caption: is that our leaders have simply gone insane.

Seattle's Mamdani is winning by an absurdly small margin over our incumbent mayor, who once pulled a gun on a pregnant woman in a parking lot.

Makes me think of MAO II where DeLillo is talking (in 1991) about how terrorists now occupy the space novelists once held. Novelists once dangerously influenced mass consciousness, now they don't, and terrorists have seized their role.

Oates is from the last generation still trained to kill.

it's difficult to convey to a modern audience how Predator hit - it was 1987, and it had been a decade full of watching beefcake men like this be untouchable god kings, slaughtering their way through hordes of lesser men - and now here they were, getting picked off one at a time, easy victims

i have not watched GDT's Frankenstein but i am firm in my belief that it needs a tie-in adventure/fighting game like the 90s Kenneth Branagh one did on the Sega CD. and they need to keep in elizabeth's roll attack

Screenshot of a tweet from Joyce Carol Oates posted on Sunday, November 9th that reads "so curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates--scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. in fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. the poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the "most wealthy person in the world."

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

not to be all "oh yeah well what about the OTHER awesome old timey-sounding '70s canadian shipwreck folk song" but if you pay attention to the lyrics of "The Mary Ellen Carter" it is surprisingly detailed and precise about marine insurance underwriting and drysuit salvage operations

"oh shit people don't like our nazi CEO, quick let's remove all the branding from our cars, THAT will fool them!" is an all-time brain genius marketing move, every time I see one of these de-branded piles of crap on the road it gives me a chuckle

Al-Qaeda in Syria's Ex-Commander Enlists in The War on Terror They always said al-Qaeda would one day make its way to the White House. Turns out it's not for a suicide bombing but a handshake

If the War on Terror were Orwell's Animal Farm, today we come to the last page.

Talking Oglaf with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne: 'We'd stay up all night drawing stuff to make each other laugh' - The Comics Journal Other than some time off every year for Christmas, Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne have delivered a new Oglaf comic, skewering fantasy tropes with absolutely not safe for work humor, every week since 2008...

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexyβ€”or occasionally anti-sexyβ€”OGLAF!

Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!
