Uh oh, it's Siobhan 🏳️‍⚧️

Absolutely fucking vile. Cops out of Pride. Corps out of Pride.

It turns out that I do know The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, but only as a movie that I didn't want to see.

I mean, I don't know if it's fair to beat the ass of a man sixteen years older than me who looks about seven inches shorter, but everything I've learned about him in the past five minutes makes me think that I'd make an exception.

I've worked in publishing for the past ten years and I've never even heard of this vain dope. Admittedly, I live and work in the US, but I also put an effort in to know and read international authors.

Right? Wow, it's so kind of them to not be giving daily press conferences updating us about the many crimes and the prosecution of the Clintons!

Okay, let's shuffle him off to the Boomer bin. He's annoying, pretends that he's self-made, and refuses to die. Perfect for that generation.

They always love to try and trot this, "Well what if YOUR guy is in there, huh?" shit, and it always falls so flat. Like, yeah, I bet some of them are! Unlike you fucking right-wing dorks, most of the left doesn't care if they lose their child sexual predator contingent. We want predators exposed!

The youths can take "this slaps" from me, but they'll have to kill me first.

I remember feeling the way you describe your son here. Those times when you feel the need to leave kid stuff behind, even though you are very much still a kid. That self-imposed and policed restriction. Learning to let go of that and enjoy silly stuff again can be hard.

Honestly, I don't see a way that it isn't better than human priests...

Robots and computers aren't a demographic, a population, or, you know, people, so I'm pretty confident that they don't exist in any way that makes it possible to have "slurs" for them.

One of my absolute favorite map editors. I loved building cities and starports and mech bases in that thing.

That's beautiful. Makes me want to commission the cab from Who Framed Roger Rabbit? from him.

I've given it some thought and I really don't know why anyone gives a shit about Harry Potter when Kiki's Delivery Service exists.

Seeing him on stuff like Black Bag and MobLand this year, it's kind of crazy how Pierce Brosnan has aged in a way that has only allowed him to grow into his handsomeness more.

This is an incredibly hard choice, but I think it has to be Bogus Journey. It's part of a run of gleefully deranged, character/actor driven comedies from the late 80s and early 90s that fascinate me (Clifford, Hudson Hawk, stuff like that) but it's also the only one that's really kind and sweet.

Ever since Stranger Than Fiction, I've been convinced that she could do a great version of The Doctor.

It's so nice to know that people will fuck up their kerning across all mediums.

Street sign for Horneytown Rd. Under is a second sign that says "This sign has RFID and GPS tracking"

Environmental storytelling.

The whole history of animal spaceflight is so fascinating, and deeply fucked up.

Having spent the last two weeks in Florida, where a series of the biggest damn trucks you can buy honked and tailgated and roared around me at sixty on residential streets every second of every drive I took, I agree.

I really like this one, stuck to the mirror on the men's restroom of one of my favorite bars.

Absolute ghoul shit. It's not enough that these folks are being forced out of their careers for being who they are by an administration that demonizes them and wants them to die, they have to be stripped of any benefits that they earned through years of service to the very country erasing them.

Ocean's 400 AD

Caesar's Palace Resort & Casino-core ass design aesthetic...

It can be so nice, and I'm annoyed as hell that Vegas has no trains and that they're planning to set up the new line from here to LA at $109 to $133 each way, which is the cost of me driving there and back three to four times.

Didn't we get an almost immediate match on the gold medallions they put up everywhere to a 6 for $2.50 pack of foam pieces on Temu earlier this year?

Really excited for this one!

Dang, y'all, it's #LetterboxdFriday again, so here's my #LastFourWatched! I'm visiting family this week, so my selections are even more eclectic and uneven than usual.
From left to right:
1 - Blue Cave
2 - Star Trek: First Contact
3 - Fall of Hyperion
4 - Oceans Rising

"Hey, guy! This is a boxing match and you already look sleepy, so you better remember who my dad was!"
