Well, #Shrinking’s season finale hit me in all the feels. Thank you, @vdoozer.bsky.social !
Emmy voters, give #HarrisonFord that damn award this year!!

The teaser for the third Dune movie is out, and instead of calling it "Dune: Messiah" or "Children of Dune," they're just going with "Dune Three."

I still think it should have a subtitle: "With Fremen Like These, Who Needs Enemies?"

I'm not sure what I look forward to more on Thursdays: New episodes of #ThePitt or @ginaippy.bsky.social's amazing breakdowns! We finish an episode and then head straight to YouTube to see Gina's take.

Though the window of opportunity has obviously extended (I can still play PS2 games if I want to hook up my old PS2), for many games, if you don't play them within a certain timeframe of release (yes, about 10 years), then they'll never be played. Obvs more of an issue with indies than AAA. 3/3

I don't see every movie when it comes out, but I can catch up with films that are DECADES old via streaming or DVD. There are many games that cannot be played (unless they were initially successful enough to get a remaster or are available via emulator) 1/...3?

There's a strange phenomenon with games that doesn't really exist with other media - having the means to play said media in perpetuity (or close to it). 1/2

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Nothing makes my little GenX punk heart feel old like hearing The Clash’s “London Calling” played over the speakers in my … <checks notes> … grocery store.

I grew up in the Wyoming Valley. Is this a new thing? I thought we had fluoridated water when I was young (but then again, a lot of the water was well water and not municipal)

Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

Five years ago, our great American democracy was put to the test, and Donald Trump failed it.

The danger he poses was clear then, and it remains clear now. We must never forget that.

So when can you start

Aging like gas station sushi in the blazing hot summer sun.

Screenshots from Andor when the Gorman councilman told Mon Mothma, “They don’t even bother to lie badly anymore. I suppose that’s the final humiliation.”

GOP is now also "Guardians Of Pedophiles"

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

2025 anxiety woke me up a few hours after midnight, but listening to 2026 rain falling outside is a calming omen for the new year.

"Radical left scum" is something The Empire would call The Rebellion.

You're on the cool team.

"And so this is Christmas
and what have you done?"

GET.
OFF.
MY.
BACK!

2025 has been a LOT!

It feels like all too many people are still unaware

🗣️ STARBUCKS BARISTAS HAVE BEEN ON STRIKE FOR OVER A MONTH

DO NOT BUY STARBUCKS

"Yeah, but my store's not striking"
"My stores non-union"

DO NOT BUY A N Y STARBUCKS PRODUCT

ALL STORES ARE A "STRIKING STORE"

Folks complained about the cost of #Thanksgiving this year, but for #ItalianAmericans, Christmas Eve IS our Thanksgiving. So I hope that all of those undereducated “considered White because of the Knights of Columbus” (look it up) wops who voted for the child rapist choke on their tuna salad. 2/2

Thanks to, I’m assuming, tariffs, getting enough seafood this year for the #FeastOfTheSevenFishes was, to put it mildly, a challenge. Even frozen seafood was scarce (and even then at a premium price).

Liberals Could Be Civilization's Vanguard, if We Stop Getting In Our Own Way Or: On Rejecting Silverism, Embracing Richardsonism

Per my post about the unbelievable loss of the Reiners–“It’s about the story. And without a story, you are dead in the water.”

Sunset through a snow covered forest

Happy Winter Solstice–the Reason for the Season! Here’s to coming out of the darkness toward the light!

We'll never get this chance now, and this loss is just one of many that I've been grieving over the past 24 or so hours.

This was always my greatest hope for Rob Reiner, a master storyteller who transcended genre, audience, and style: that he would be asked by Democratic leadership to take those incredible skills and use them as he had for so many other left-leaning causes to help the Democrats craft *their* story.

The irony is that the Democrats have on their side some of THE GREATEST STORYTELLERS EVER KNOWN, so it always baffled me why they'd never leverage those resources to craft a better story, a more inclusive story, a hopeful rather than a fearful story.
