Some of the best (I think) material in Five Came Back is there because a librarian saw what I was working on over 3 days and asked me if I'd like to take a look at a box of old George Stevens papers that had not been catalogued yet. So no, for a ton of reasons, AI cannot "do the research for you."

I’m going to probably watch One Battle After Another 100 times. What a movie.

Rick is one of the best humans.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

Today I was forced to watch a gender reversed Christmas themed version of Mrs. Doubtfire. Don’t believe people when they say our society can’t get worse.

This is probably the best thing I've read all year about the movie *business.* Bravo, @aadowd.bsky.social

It’s that time of year again. Favorite albums of 2025: Hayley Williams, Big Thief, Alan Sparhawk, Suede, Friendship, Cory Hanson, Jeff Tweedy, Alex G, Geese, caroline, Oklou and De La Soul. Another really great year and I probably didn’t scratch the surface.

Hilarious thread in which a very rich person demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge about how health care works for the average American.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.

What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?

Who in the USA gov runs the program?

R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

RIP Raul Malo of The Mavericks. Incredible singer. I had recently listening to 1994's WHAT A CRYING SHAME, one of my favorite 90s country records. Just listen to this guy's voice. Big time talent.

Continuing my journey through the albums I missed this year. This one is beautiful. I was a big fan of Low’s descent into noise but this album’s clarity is equally great.

My biggest take away from this whole Notre Dame thing is that a large amount of people have completely forgotten what makes college football great.
December 8, 2025 at 5:02 AM
Notre Dame hasn’t won a meaningful football game since 1988 but they keep getting treated like CFB royalty because of their fanatical fanbase. It’s getting old.

Manny Diaz is the best. Congrats to him.

As an infant Ryan Day’s mother dipped him in an enchanted lake to make him the most successful football coach of all time but ironically held him by the part of the body that encourages you to open up the pass game and toss it deep to your world class receivers.

"Surely it doesn't need to be said that Paul Dano is one of our greatest actors. Anyone who doesn't get that doesn't know what acting is. He's also a brilliant director and writer, a very snappy dresser, and a gigantic mensch." --Tony Kushner
