Yeah. I'm always impressed when movies nail "inescapable doom" and aren't just gratuitous

Yeah man, that's on my short list of horror movies that feel genuinely mean. It's up there with Evil Dead Rise and The Hills Have Eyes

A while back Shakey Graves and Esme Patterson released Dearly Departed and I would pay good money for a revival of Kenny and Dolly duets

Like…I love Johnny. He’s great (he does have some corny moments, but even that feels kinda cool usually, in that way naturally cool people can pull off dorky without it sticking), but sometimes I wish people would realize he’s not the be all end all of the genre and their only reference.

Sometimes I forget Paul F. Tompkins is a Phillies fan, then he reminds me and I have a BLAST imagining him at the game in a 3 piece suit and bowler hat, throwing batteries at the opposing pitcher.

This is complimentary

I just got a call from my loan officer that because I had to spend my down payment on rent, I may no longer qualify for my mortgage loan

I need to come up with at least $5000 asap or my house search will be for nothing and my mom and I will be homeless in under 2 months

Yeah, I mean, fundamentally I'm also a pessimist and somehow her surviving a maga implosion feels like the kind of anchor that win would be tied to

Nutria Atomica: El Rey de Canada @nutriaatomica.bsky.social · 14h

I do like the idea of being able to reply "listen I love that idea, but copilot says only a stupid idiot would propose that."

Except that won't work because copilot won't tell you when ideas are bad.

This future sucks

My wife and I are pretty split on whether (as she believes) Trump has gone too far, or (As I believe) She's politically savvy and is reading MAGA spinning itself apart and consequently triangulating

I'm fascinated by Majorie Taylor Greene's recent shift to performative sanity.

Smart. We do an indie game and now we got a transmedia franchise going. And we exclusively call it transmedia because he's going to have an aneurism about it

Just the absolute worst manifestation of Guys bein Dudes you can imagine, armed with seemingly unchecked federal power

"American hogs should be uncut!" -- RFK Jr

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 18h

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."
