If you could get rich by working.

Rich people would be doing it.

Andor represents a style of writing that demands viewer engagement. You have to meet the show halfway. I pretty strongly suspect that Andor happening at all was an mf'ing miracle and that future TV is going to be much more like Reacher than Andor.

It's #Andor day! Damn I love this show. The world is collapsing but this show is one of the few things I enjoy anymore.

A white protest sign being held up by the arm and hand of someone wearing a ball cap, ahead in the crowd. In green, it has the pixelated image of a covered wagon from the old Oregon Trail computer game, and it says “You have died of Republican policy.”

In DC:

The road to fascism is lined with people who told you to stop overreacting.

The world is collapsing, but I just bought myself two hours of happiness by purchasing tickets to Pink Floyd at Pompeii in IMAX. I'll take my bread and circuses with a side of trippy nostalgia, please. #pinkfloyd

I don't know what word in the English language -- I can't find one -- applies to people who are willing to sacrifice the literal existence of organized human life so they can put a few more dollars into highly stuffed pockets. The word 'evil' doesn't even begin to approach it. Noam Chomsky

For every Google product there are multiple replacements you can try. The above suggestions are just examples to try

At this point why would anyone still be using X, META, or Amazon? There are alternatives!

Star Wars is, and always has been, pulp fiction. Gloriously, ridiculously pulp. Except Andor, which is just great storytelling and serious as a heart attack.

Not gonna lie. I miss my fb groups. It was my main way of online socializing. But dammit, I just can't support META.

I never liked Twitter so BSKY is not really my jam. Reddit is fine for niche stuff, but I miss my people. Anyone else relate to this?
