You overlooked The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970) which was a Billy Wilder/IAL Diamond collaboration. These are the same pair that gave us Some Like It Hot. Been a while since I saw it, but I seem to recall that it played the "are Holmes and Watson a couple?" thing for homophobic laughs.

Sad to see this ingratitude towards the Democrats for enabling the killings of tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza. Please give credit where it's due.

There's a suspension of disbelieve thing going on in this movie, with more than a few accidental anachronisms. This shot in particular accidentally reveals modern Burbank in the distance for a fraction of a second.

"Ukraine has reportedly begun operating AI powered small drone 'swarms' that are semi-autonomous and coordinate their attacks."

On the one hand, it'd be great if Putin's attempt to destroy a democracy fails.

On the other hand, Jesus Fucking Christ.

Dimly recalling a ancient SF story in which the robots all go on strike because they resent having the human form imposed on them.

It's my eternal scream. Kamala Harris ran as "tough on crime" and law enforcement unions across the board (and sheriff orgs) endorsed Trump.

Why are people pissed? Because it seemed to be ambiguous? It didn't feel that way to me.

The problem is that geodesic domes fell out of fashion. All the EN&R in @greatdismal.bsky.social's fiction came from ill-considered doming of major cities.

A long time ago, I went on a rant on Twitter where I advocated Confederate flag burnings as a protest against racist violence. I got tone policed by somebody who said that such-and-such Black people forgave such-and-such racist murders.

I still think the flag burnings would be a good idea.

I used a bike rack this weekend that exists because I complained about it not existing.

You can make things better, even just a little.

remember when that first hospital got blown up in Palestine and most of the internet was busy screaming at anyone who said "yes, I think they blew up that hospital" because obviously this was a false flag attack to discredit The Most Moral Army In The World?

Palantir posts mini-manifesto denouncing inclusivity and ‘regressive’ cultures | TechCrunch Palantir's ideological bent has come under more scrutiny as it's worked with ICE and positioned itself as a defender of "the West."

Any candidate that takes money from Palantir should not receive your vote.

Co-founder Joe Lonsdale is pouring millions into a PAC to buy off Democrats, especially in California.

While everyone is correctly calling this a mass shooting, it's also a family annihilator case. Most of the violence in our society comes back to intimate partner violence. If we care about peace in any way, we have to care about violence in the home.

Okay, on the one hand, running upright is hard! The designers did a genuinely impressive thing here!

On the other, I’m not sure “look how much faster than a human it can go” is terribly interesting framing. Lots of things go faster than humans, and it just gets people’s backs up.

TBH, I'm no longer a fan of honey bees. They crowd out native pollinators, to the detriment of some native plants.

But regardless, you're right about the lizards having to eat. I'm just impressed that they can eat a stinged insect without getting stung.
