Watching Batman Begins for the first time in a while, and for all its vaunted "realism" it feels way more comic booky than what came later. It's not just how Nolan's approach to film developed later - it feels like an artefact of an earlier epoch.

It is amazing to me how many countries have decided soft power is unimportant.

We built Jikipedia, a new wiki that compiles Jmail data into exhaustive reports on key figures in the Epstein scandal.
It lists all recorded visits to Epstein's estates, each person's possible knowledge of Epstein's crimes and laws that they may have violated.

The Cas are so fuckin' good.
You ever stop and think about CASABLANCA? You ever stop and think about "Welcome back to the fight, this time, I know our side will win?" You ever think about a bar full of people defiantly singing La Marseillaise, played by a soundstage full of Jewish refugees? You ever think about CASABLANCA??????

Because I grew up in QLD in the ‘80s, I’m more often surprised when police *don’t* attack demonstrators. So I’ve had that familiar feeling this week of watching people come to a difficult truth: when you see a demo turn ugly, it’s almost always because the cops decided that’s how it was gonna go.

So, first things first, a big congrats to Angus Taylor.

You know, I realized I never did one of these last year due to being overwhelmed with the new job and I really like these.
So let's bring this back. This weekend (Friday-Sunday afternoon) ask me about any comic book character and you'll get my take on them! One character per customer, please. (1/2)
