It's really funny that The Art of War is treated as this like alpha male book when it's clearly meant to be read by ancient Chinese failsons because it's all "please don't forget you have to feed your troops" and "if someone asks if you're going to attack them consider lying about it"

A part of the reason Blaseball was so perfect is that baseball is already an absurd game. ⚾️ 🩸

The never-ending baseball game is a blast, to be honest. If we play this right, baseball can last forever.

The 70s were a good time for environmental horror. PROPHECY (1979) is a movie criticizing the dispossession and degradation of indigenous under capitalism.

It is also a movie about a mutant killer bear.

“Machado’s politics are steeped in violence. She has called for foreign intervention, even appealing directly to Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the architect of Gaza’s annihilation, to help ‘liberate’ Venezuela with bombs under the banner of ‘freedom.’”

'Peace' Has No Meaning When Right-Wingers Like Maria Corina Machado Win the Nobel Prize | Common Dreams

As Venezuelan-American, I know exactly what Machado represents: the smiling face of Washington’s regime-change machine, the polished spokesperson for sanctions, privatization, and foreign intervention...

Hopefully it makes a difference since nothing other than the ADU stuff has done much.

I supported this one. High density infill projects in California should he easy to build not hard. The alternative is we keep letting flood zones and wildfire area be the only place houses get built and then we all pay for them in the next 30 years in the aftermath of disasters.

Has anyone from WWEID been signed to a full-time wrestling contract with WWE?

Coratee (Garfield Era) @thecoratee.bsky.social · 15h

That world be fun too!

Coratee (Garfield Era) @thecoratee.bsky.social · 15h

Yeah she should crash out hard and then self-reflect. Maybe have a baby face like willow reach out to her and cheer her up. That's what I would do.

Coratee (Garfield Era) @thecoratee.bsky.social · 15h

Well at least the movies are guaranteed to be good.

Coratee (Garfield Era) @thecoratee.bsky.social · 17h

Yeah he's a real one too. I think they both model what the perfect Ace for a division will do to elevate it and elevate wrestling globally.

I want her to slowly lose these all and hit rock bottom where she will do a face turn then build back up and win the AEW championship.

She is the most international wrestling star in the world right now. Has there ever been a name this big grinding indies all over the world for the love of the game like this?

She does not have to do this.

I get a lot of tattoo content on Instagram because 90% of my use of it is to find artists. I gotta say big tattoo accounts seem to hate their jobs and clients if their content is any indication.

Unfortunately, Jim is a little dumb and a lot racist. Sigh.

They tried to bring Hulk Hogan as an Americans Hero (tm) and he got boo'd out of the building.

My hot take on this series is that it is a folk horror movie.

Coratee (Garfield Era) @thecoratee.bsky.social · 22h

10. Franchises.

How about the underrated PUMPKINHEAD series whose sequel ran on TV a lot when I was a kid and scared the piss out of me.

The original revenge demon.

The first two are great. Next couple have some juice as well for direct fo sci fi sequels, but not much juice.

I'm also a proud member of the death riders story was good the whole time* club.

*was actually kinda bad for a month or so because the face side of the story was stupid.

I'll admit, though, as someone who has enjoyed the Death Riders of late watching everyone meltdown is giving me some joy. There is something about a heel that is so despised in the truest sense that just feels right. I haven't seen this in AEW before and I think fans don't realize this is the goal.

Trading for Skattebo after week 2 in fantasy has me feeling like.

Fulci throws the entire kitchen sink at you in THE BEYOND (1981). And it has 80s synths. What's not to like (other than the characterization and story structure)?

If you like Fulci style 1980s silly gore at all then this is a must watch.

EVIL LAUGH (1986). A fun low budget slasher. The most memorable character is the self aware horror fan with fangoria who keeps warning everyone and trying to leave. Possibly influenced SCREAM (1996)?

Microwave kill was funny. Soft 3 stars.
