Anyone within slapping distance who doesn’t slap him is a traitor to humanity.

Who cares what Gates thinks? The man is utterly disconnected from the needs of average people. Time to kick billionaires with their saviour complexes to the curb.

If the same cast of cretins ever get power again, they’ll apologize to maga for being so abuseable. AOC, Omar, Mamdani … these are the people who would actually hold them to account. There’s not a Schumer or Clinton in the world with an ounce of backbone.

This goddamn wind blew my bike to work so hard that I time-travelled and fell in love with an 18th century Scottish Laird. #wellington

Presence (2024) ⭐ 6.1 | Drama, Horror, Thriller 1h 24m | R

We’re always looking out for ghost stories this time of year.

I won’t spoil it, but I think Soderbergh’s Presence is underrated.

Router on/off switches should be a hero design element: Visible, accessible, and pleasing to interact with.

Designers who force me to freak my router's hiney for a power button are designing for the way the world should be, not the way it actually is.

Well said. I’ve only ever been accused of virtue signaling by the kinds of dudes I’d wanna protect our trans friends from.

Social Media is never interested in my disinterest in AI art.

I see an AI banana dancing at Radio City and say β€œNot Interested” and the platform is always β€œok you hate bananas and Radio City Music Hall, gotcha”.

Wait. How the hell do you fire the jobs report person, install a sycophant who’ll report whatever you want, and STILL end up with worse job reports? This administration can’t even LIE competently.

This is the way. When I was an eager, up-and-coming musician I hated being around the β€œget out while you still can, kid” types. I was hungry for the struggle. I thought β€œIf you hate it, why are you here?” I’ve blown nothing but enthusiasm at new players since then. They get enough shit already.

Thanks for leaning into it occasionally man. Reminds me we’re all on the same page.

Christoph Waltz punching down at below-the-liners follows the tradition of above-the-liners who treat crew like serfs. Once you've been physically assaulted by one of them, those insults are just another day at the office.

Their logic ties you up and rapes you"

Anti-rascism. An intolerance of intolerance. Blocking rather than engaging, muting their reach and insulating them to their own bubbles. An absolute refusal to bend the knee to just even a little bit of fascism. And doing so with a tone that does not in the slightest allow them comfort in their hate

US President to Canada: "We'll invade your country, make you the '51st State', (but you'll be a territory, not a state), kill your services and way of life, impose tariffs, exclude you from commerce, and turn our citizens against you."

American Media: "Canadians are big mad about the tariffs."

Watching the new Devo doco on Netflix last night taught me that an alarming number of Americans actually supported the National Guard massacre of students at Kent State. Nauseating.

The film industry is a rough place to work right now. It's been an awful week and a brutal couple of years.

Tonight I get to watch Alien: Earth with friends from the animatronics crew, and holy shit things like this remind me of the magic. I can't wait to fanboy all over them.
