gorgeous closeup on Tatsuya Nakadai in Sword of Doom wearing a ronin hat, a wide-brimmed hat made of bamboo with a chin strap, the light filtering through it onto his face.

hearing reports out of Japan that Tatsuya Nakadai has passed away at 92. RIP to a legit legend.

That’s fair. We can definitely disagree and still be friends!

That being said, like I said in the comments: I don’t like this deal. I just don’t think the Democrats are going to get a better one.

It’s been 40 days of nothing but “no” from the GOP.

Honestly, this is likely as good of a deal as the Democrats are going to get.

Reinstates fired federal workers. Prevents admin from re-firing them. SNAP funding for a year, and an ACA vote in December.

Voters are already blaming the GOP for the ACA - make them vote against it.

I've probably said this before, but if you're a band about to play a show, you should make sure not to have any Can tracks playing beforehand, as they will make your own seem anticlimactic.

A lot of the problems with Nuremberg come down to the sloppy exposition, clumsy plotting, and woeful direction. And a truly awful high school play-level turn from Rami Malek.

This how I find out I have a son??

They've come a long way since I wrote this story about them 30 years ago.

Is it too early in the day for Baklava Cheesecake!?

The Reign of the Maximalist Couch

“The concept of an ornate couch appears to be an exciting novelty for homeowners under 40.”

In-between a Betty Boop cartoon and a Little Rascals short on MeTV late last night it was an ad for generic Cialis.
Weird, wild stuff.

OpenAI faces 7 lawsuits claiming ChatGPT drove people to suicide, delusions OpenAI is facing seven lawsuits claiming ChatGPT drove people to suicide and harmful delusions even when they had no prior mental health issues.

Six people died from tampered Tylenol and the company pulled 30 million bottles off the market. ChatGPT is accused of urging seven people towards suicide, and OpenAI just assures us they’re still working out the kinks. Billions in investment, zero accountability.

This is the correct explanation of what happened tonight👇

#CDFriday with this seminal set from Terry Riley

Edward Cody, globe-trotting correspondent at The Post, dies at 82 He reported on conflicts and disaster zones from Mexico to Lebanon. “Rarely in a career do you enjoy a task that is so solitary and intense,” he wrote.

RIP Ed Cody, a quintessential old-school foreign correspondent who could parachute into anyplace in the world, find the story and file within hours. He was never happier than when he was in the field running toward the sound of the guns. www.washingtonpost.com/obituaries/2...

I knew you had good taste, Tom! Such a wonderful film and that ending still hits me emotionally. I rewatch this scene on the 4th of July every year, if I don't have time to watch the whole film again.

This is even more delightful than I'd heard.

Ok, but Tesla is currently at 7.2 million sales in 9 years, sales have slowed down and to make the first step towards his trillion dollar salary he needs to sell 20 million cars. I don’t think any of this is going to happen.

Excellent news. You have a new label yet or know when you'll have new music?

There’s not a day goes past that I don’t miss Tony Bourdain, great man, great friend, great writer. Nothing can make up for the loss of him, of course, but it’s wonderful to hear his voice live from the page in the compellingly brilliant Anthony Bourdain Reader edited by Kim Witherspoon.

RFK Jr's response to someone collapsing nearby him was to haul ass out of the room as quickly as possible
