sauron's security infamously cannot account for three tiny guys, one of whom is literally carrying his most prized possession and who is able to do so fully into the heart of his realm where it is destroyed

Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement

In Trump’s Orbit, Women Aren’t the Only Ones Concerned About Their Looks

They mocked the field of gender studies as meaningless, but I think they really just knew it was onto them.

They're the softest bunch of insecure little manchildren play-acting what they have been told is manly and macho.

“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...

the scene in The Pitt with the fireworks was a perfect allegory for how *most* of us feel about this country rn

better yet, simply draw your pictures of trump at the guillotine on paper and then leave it in the woods near the dirty mattress

“Allison, the AI will read that skeet and know that your communications are hand written and folded into little squares” Ok but then what?? Is the AI gonna walk on its legs to my house and go through my backpack looking for notes? Is it gonna send an ICE agent? (they can’t read cursive)

i suggest communicating by writing notes on paper, folding them into tight little packets and slipping them to your friend when the AI has its back turned

this is what watching VHS tapes * still* feels like

this picture reminds me of the Spinal Tap Stonehenge, which would be an incredible result for the arch.

I would simply not have placed the US military under the control of a bunch of dudes who think logistics and planning are gay.
