And it was excellent, at that. I hope I get tired of Benoit Blanc long before Johnson and Craig get tired of making them because they’re such an absolute delight.

Recency bias not withstanding, this one may be the best of the three.
Any day you get to see a new Rian Johnson movie is a good day.

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

So this is a simplistic, binary, and altogether poor way to approach film analysis. Films aren’t good/bad, they do certain things well and certain things poorly. Rarely will you find a film or any art that does everything right. It’s just degrees of how well some things were accomplished.
i know this will shock a lot of you but movies can actually be bad. like, not bad as in "oh i don't this character's choices or this vibe isn't for me" but bad in "there is no logical connection between the scenes i'm being presented with"

Sci-fi content tends to show us one or two futures. Either the world is ruined by technology & humans are scraping by or the world is saved by technology & humans live lives of ease.

I feel like the reality is just that weirdos try to cram tech into places it doesn’t belong & just makes life harder

It's great that Birmingham owners want to build a modern stadium to match the size of their ambitions for the club. City should be huge.

But it's a shame it looks like an upturned coffee table or a beetle that's stuck on its back.

Everyone is making a jerk off motion to this right now, but I see this as a big win.

Twenty years ago this vote woulda been nearly unanimous. That 98 Democrats felt safe enough to vote no is a huge sign of the change in the public perception of socialism.
BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Eighty-six Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Trump is gonna pocket veto the Epstein Bill imo. He has 10 days to sign it (not counting Sundays) before it becomes law as long as Congress is in session. If Congress isn’t in session, then it essentially means it’s vetoed. Johnson will gavel the session for the holidays and give Trump his out.

I think a major problem with the country’s collective “capitalism brain” is that so much is made about “efficiency” and not much is made about quality. I don’t really care how efficient a business is run. I care about the quality of the product or service they provide.

Donald Trump is absolutely the type of guy who, in a coke fueled mania, sticks another coked up guy’s dick in his mouth as a joke.

I, for one, am grateful that Olivia Nuzzi can’t write. Can you imagine how much worse a detailed and compelling description of RFK’s worm ridden, turgid penis would be? She fails to paint us a picture that none of us wanted to look at anyways.

Grant was president during the centennial, Coolidge during the sesquicentennial, and Ford during the bicentennial.

It probably says more about the general mediocrity of the presidency than anything else, but all of them were fairly unpopular and/or scandal ridden at the time, so it's a pattern.
Trump is gonna be President during America’s 250th anniversary celebration. Which is, frankly, fitting.

This whole thread is essentially another attempt by the complicit media to stuff their heads in the sand. “If this were a fascist government, I would be morally compelled to resist it. So I have to prove it’s not to excuse my own cowardice and laziness.” Every day we step closer to the line and-

Instead, I - and you - would be trying to build networks of people *offline* who can support and protect each other, in the dark, rather than yelling at the president and his stooges in our own names. /2

This has nothing to do with drugs and everything to do with Oil. Columbia and Mexico smuggle way more drugs into this country than Venezuela but they don’t have socialist governments with a lot of petro dollars. Trump promised $2 gas and this is how he’s planning on doing it. Steal it.

The only common sale in American life that still involves negotiating price is buying a car. This is a practice that is universally reviled as salesmen lie to you about prices, features, add-ons, financing, and put intentionally obfuscating paperwork in front of you. Let’s make medicine that!
