Congratulations. You reopened a strait that was open six weeks ago, a strait that was closed because of YOUR illegal war. And btw dumbass, it’s the Strait of Hormuz, not the Strait of Iran.

Shortest tour in history?

“It’s a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what they’re not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,” Wyle says. “You take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where you’re now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who aren’t accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.

“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”

Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. “Fourth point: The election went the other way,” he says with a shrug. “We could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth point—this is essentially competence porn. You’re watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you don’t know how to do it, and you’re so fucking glad that they’re there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. You’re so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.”

this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...

They sold out the ConDome!

“I’ll never stop searching for you.”
Arden Pepion was just 3 when she disappeared in Montana. Five years later, her family is still searching.

It just hit me yesterday that "Nightshift" is a metaphor for Heaven, as I've been thinking this week on the passing of a friend who was a singer.

"Gonna be some sweet sounds
Comin' down on the night shift
I bet you're singin' proud
Oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd" 💔

So sorry for the loss of your furbaby, Doc.

This is beyond blasphemous. But the creature in the middle of the sky? I hope it's a Power or Throne, and not the kind trump likes, put there by the AI as a warning to such blasphemy. But it could also just as likely be a demon as AI is adding its own commentary to the image.

Heeling* power lol

And what is that creature in the sky? A throne (not the kind you sit on)?

As the homophone "conceited" fits him very well

Except, he thinks it means "block aid"
