A (quite) young movie lover said to me recently, "Not everybody can afford a DVD player," and I said "How much do you think a DVD player costs?"
He said, "I don't know, like $500?"
Those of us who advocate physical media are maybe not doing the best job of messaging.

Who do I have to speak to about writing a Star Wars comic about Podracing? We can all agree the original N64 game is one of the best things about the prequels, right?

NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

Most bonkers part of the story for me is that the Murdoch money was donated via News International (now News UK) - owner of The Times, The Sun, TalkTV etc.
In other words, a media company donating to a political pressure group.
And these same outlets have the gall to whinge about BBC “bias”

Do we have a name for the hive-mind body snatcher monsters in TV and film? They’re so ubiquitous (Pluribus, Bodysnatchers, The Borg, Mind-flayers), but I don’t think we’ve ever given them a label a la zombie, vampire, werewolf, ghost, etc. Unless I’m mistaken…?

feels like there's been a big push to abandon anything like humanistic moral values, christian charity, or basic decency, but we're all supposed to be very obsessed with what is in our food and water, unless it's a chemical that's demonstrably toxic, then we need to let industry dump it into rivers
