Enjoying Pluribus immensely. I love the restraint of it. This could have so been a schlocky overblown sci-fi casserole of a show, but Gilligan plays it so delicately, makes it personal.
Imagine making a show where virtually 100% of the population has no need to talk anymore and committing to that.

E-commerce websites: if I have bought something from you by all means email me from time to time with new products and offers. Who knows I might buy something again. However, if you spam email me *multiple times a week* I will unsubscribe and never buy from you again. Your pushiness costs you.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Quentin Tarantino says 'There Will Be Blood' had a chance to be his greatest film of the 21st century if it didnt have Paul Dano in it
"it’s supposed to be a two-hander, but ... [Dano] is weak sauce, man ... He’s just such a weak, weak, uninteresting guy. The weakest fucking actor in SAG [laughs]"

Can't get the recognised body to award you the actual prize? Just get an unrelated body to present you an off-brand one.
