“A certain famous male comedian (who performed in Saudi Arabia, ahem) told me a few weeks ago that my firing was a “badge of honor.”

But sometimes I think people might say, “Be proud! It’s a badge of honor”! — because they don’t want to deal with your anger.”

Is getting fired from mainstream media a "badge of honor"?

The most insane sort of experience I can read, primarily because this writer spends over 2,000 words and several dates, and never once considers that the people who call these men dangerous were right on first blush

Anyone on here got any recs for good West African jazz and highlife? Trying to expand my knowledgebase

Turned 35, had dinner with my wife and started s2 of Dark Winds. Hard to beat this year's b-day

That man lost his mind at folks calling a Nazi tattoo bad, and still had to swing at a random black journalist that had nothing to do with it at all. These establishment whites are something else.

I don't jive with the pessimism about Hollywood movies from old heads when they're putting out critical shrugs like The Irishman and Gladiator 2. There's plenty of good stuff coming out now like Sinners, Friendship and Weapons

My feed keeps showing me posts about Taylor Swift. Despite constant muting of text and gats and marking posts as 'See Less of This,' I somehow keep getting posts related to her in my feed. How do I escape this WASPy hell?

Disappointing to read because I loved Weapons and haven't seen anything interesting from Straub in half a decade..
weapons is the most disappointed i have been in a movie in a long time.

A24 should fire its trailer editors bc their work is too GOOD for these movies

would love to go into enormous detail on this. jesus christ

I'm looking for a coffee grinder that's not comically expensive. Want something better than a typical spice grinder. Ideally less than $125. Help me out #coffeesky

I loved #AlienEarth. No spoilers.
I loved that they seemed to be using proper old school effects in place of CGI wherever possible: incredibly talented performers in costumes; animatronics. And sometimes they were a bit shonky AND IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE.

Many spam callers actually keep you on the call list if you answer, since that registers. Even if you disconnect before the scammer comes on the line from the transfer. The only reliable way to remove yourself is to not answer so that calling you is a waste of time
my most unpopular opinion is that it's a sign of defective moral character if you point blank refuse to answer phone calls from unknown numbers. it's not that hard to hang up on spam/scammers, and you are probably missing important calls!

This album slaps, I hate that I waited so long to listen #musicsky #putmeon

I want Alien Earth to be renewed because it's so good, but I do love an unresolved cliffhanger so much

Not usually one to indulge in fancasts, but I think Alexander Skarsgard would make a great MCU Johnny Blaze if they aren't gonna bring back Gabriel Luna for Robbie Reyes

Shit like this is the real blueskyism: corny folks hating on things folks like for no real reason. It's 2025, why tf we taking shots at Black Sails? Shit ain't been on the air in at least 5 years.
my wife coined this thing called "Black Sails syndrome" which is when a person thinks that a show is really deep or really good because it's the first thing nominally for adults they've ever seen

The DOJ recently deleted this study, that showed that it is most likely people on the far right, that will commit acts of domestic terrorism. Make sure to spread this around; to prevent this data from being silenced! archive.md/cBfwR

All I can say is, if I were Ezra Klein reading what Coates wrote, I simply would be silent for like a month or two.

There was this rapper from Minnesota I listened to heavy in college, Witness. He dipped to Japan some years ago but I still spin the cd regularly. Hope he's doing well
