Tonight's song is dedicated to the Portland Frogs - Peace Frog by The Doors. 🐸

They are on the front lines, they are our everyday heroes. They prove night after night that Portland is not the war ravaged city Shit For Brains says it is.

Thanks Frogs for Keeping Portland Weird. 🐸❤️

Jim Lee openly disparaging AI in no way guarantees anything, no one knows what the future of AI is and no one knows who will be in charge at DC Comics down the line. But I think it's important that a popular artist publicly shot AI down. Fans and artists ignorant of or using AI need to hear this.

Same. Lot of games not as much free time.

The Pandemic and AAA burnout and delayed releases have left PS5 with a smaller library than others it would like. Like I still have a PS4 and a backlog of games to play and I have caught up with and played the latest PS5 thanks to library rentals.

It’s a trend the even number PS are better.

There is only to be the Kubrick cut. One and indivisible.

Revolutionary_Jack 🕷🕸! @elvingjack.bsky.social · 11h

*excised.

Revolutionary_Jack 🕷🕸! @elvingjack.bsky.social · 11h

I am guessing Kubrick wanted to tone down the happy ending feeling at the end. So he excused it to the single great scene he closed on.

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

Like Mean Streets though set in New York was shot in LA barring some scenes shot for exteriors. Taxi Driver was shot on location for sure. But that version of the city has been gentrified. Also cell towers weren’t a thing back in the 70s.

Chonsky said the same and nobody batted an eye. Like yeah those nations got a raw deal from USA but that doesn’t mean it’s leadership can’t be called out for their actions.

New York Times bestselling author and film & TV critic at New York Magazine Matt Zoller Seitz's LEADING MAN, the definitive biography of Jack Nicholson, casting Nicholson as the complex main character in an era of American culture spanning six decades, while shining a light on the actor’s crucial role in shaping modern masculinity, both on and off the screen, based on new interviews and original reporting, to Amar Deol at Grand Central, in an exclusive submission, by Ethan Bassoff at WME.
