Lee Cronin's The Mummy wasn't great but it did get this song stuck in my head, so that's something.

So, who's playing Rykard?

I think the lameness of D.A.R.E. has led to a sort of over-correction in which people just dump fuel on the fire of ever social ill out of some weird belief that they can be solved by diving in head first.

Exactly one year ago today:

You could not possibly write a more on the nose metaphor for this government being run by idiot brutes who uses a veneer of religiosity that they don't understand and use as a fig leaf for violence.

Again, the WHOLE FUCKING POINT of that movie, as expressed directly through dialogue at the end, is that the person saying that (Hegseth) is the "tyranny of evil men" and their victims (Iran, I guess) are the "weak." And Hegseth sure as fuck isn't "trying to be the Shepard."

You know, when the report came in yesterday I was really hoping it was a hoax or something, but holy shit, these fucking people really mistook Tarantino dialogue for the word of God.

bluesky: this was not the fault of AI

I admire the decision to call it a "pied-à-terre tax," because no one who's not rich thinks they own a pied-à-terre so won't feel personally threatened by a tax on them.

Like, the Resident Evil one kind of made sense because they were uncovering "what was going on" with Umbrella's conspiracy, but this one? I think they just picked it because the trailer was going make people say "what the fuck is this?"

Okay, this is the second trailer for a questionable video game adaptation to be randomly set to "What's Up" by Four Non Blondes.... what's going on with that?

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

Cover of "God & Man at Yale" by William F. Buckley Jr.

Like, the foundation of the modern conservative movement is this tripe:

Oh, also, Reynolds dropped out of the band kind of early in their run and the kept the name anyway, which is kind of false advertising.

Like, if you're just going to list your band member names at least have some consistency instead of adding the first name of one and only one member. Also, used the Oxford comma dammit!

"Reynolds, Frank, and Hamilton" would have been the better name.

There was a rock band from the early 70s called "Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds." They have some catchy music but my god, what an awful band name.

Happy Wednesday

The layers of media illiteracy run deep on this one. It would be funny of it wasn't actually deeply disturbing.

Hegseth quoting a fake Bible verse to sound tough while invoking scripture taken from a movie where a viscious killer does the same only to then at the end that doing so was wrong and evil.

It's almost like those awful woke scolders were anticipating something like this might happen when they were criticizing him...

Well, they're not unique there, most of these services have ad tiers now and many of them seem to be giving preference to them which is ominous.

Certainly the worst in terms of UI and whatnot. As far as programing goes I'll certainly take it over Peacock.

The "What's Poppin" guy likes Rohmer?

Don't forget how he was frequently ranting about Hannibal Lecter on the campaign trail for god knows what reason!

That may well be on the timeline for a Michael Jordan biopic...

Has Trump ever in his life apologized to anyone for any reason?

SECULAR LIBERALS: ".....and so you see, under the definition of blasphemy as put forward in the Bishop of Rome's 1687 encyclical 'De Viis Malis' and the Chalcedonian formulation of the Nicene Creed, Trump is, in fact, a heretic!!!"

AMERICAN CHRISTIANS: "God says its OK for me to drive drunk."

I forgot how stupid Euphoria was...

Because our leaders have a disease called "Terminal 1993-Brain"
