I once got into a verbal spat with Dr. Drew Casper in front of a USC film class for calling Tom Stoppard "the greatest living playwright."
Sorry, Doc, you may have hated Arcadia, but I was correct. I could have added "script doctor" too, considering we then sat down to watch Last Crusade.

I may have just told my father "stop reading that fucking guy, he's the worst film critic who ever lived" in regards to a certain somehow-still-employed columnist.

I do not understand the NBA Cup, and I feel like being cursed with knowing how it works would make my life worse.

I just saw that AI Coca-Cola ad, and I bet it would have cost less to just hire Marlon Saunders to do a new Always Coca-Cola jingle than to run however many prompts they did to get that garbage.

I literally wouldn't exist without UVA, and my childhood heart will always have a sliver there. But between this and the sudden disappearance of Young Writers Workshop? Fuck 'em. Grounds delenda est.
This is spot-on.
The UVA "deal" might be the worst/most dangerous (so far). With the help of UVA's leadership, Trump coerced a leading U.S. university to foreswear all efforts (including 100% lawful measures) to achieve diversity.
A betrayal of our values.

Spare a thought for Gibson, a very good cat. @shesaheartmaker.bsky.social has had him for nearly seventeen years and he's been in my life for eleven. My first pet of any kind. He's on his way out, but to the end he was a good boy.

It's all just one big social club of the biggest fuckin loser poindexters you'd never want at your party. Our government is run by dipwads who would get their underpants hoisted up the flagpole while still wearing them.

Hey folks, as news of Watson's demise spreads, please don't set aside his weighty legacy of misogyny and racism. He was truly among the worst of us. www.vox.com/2019/1/15/18...
DNA scientist James Watson has a remarkably long history of sexist, racist public comments
“People say it would be terrible if we made all girls pretty,” he said in 2003. “I think it would be great.”

I'm sorry, Balatro, but a 400,000 ante on the final boss blind? I had the Mime and Hanging Chad and Fibonacci and every one of my six jokers were polychrome and I couldn't get close. That's ridiculous.

Shout! Factory has been such a constant presence for great releases and stuff I know I'll always take a rider on. I get the feeling this is step one in Enshitiffication or--even worse--a full closure. I hope I'm wrong.
