“But I don’t believe government — either at the federal or state level, whether it is controlled by Republicans or Democrats — should use its powers to determine who owns a news platform or to control how that outlet reports the news.” FFS Chris, the Ellisons are buying CNN as a gift to Trump

Just to make the point abundantly clear, Chris Wallace is now a paid advisor to an investment firm that has a large stake in Paramount and a vested interest in getting the Warner Bros. merger over the line. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

This is like a setup for a golden age of adult cinema porno where they’re trying to show socially redeeming value

Badenoch represents double-down conservatism. Never apologise or moderate. Insult your opponents. Patronise journalists when challenged. Contradict yourself, lie, whatever it takes, but never back down. And that's how you end up creating an extremely avoidable Tory antisemitism scandal overnight

No, I do not like this “Liked By” thing Bluesky’s using now. Feels intrusive.

Caught the last few innings of the Dodgers Cubs game last night. The Cubs and their fans were on fire. The Dodgers were deflated. Never should have gone to the White House, fellas.

“I'm not backing down from this one” he says as he panders to the knuckleheads on Twitter

What are the odds he’s using AI for his little projects to get them rushed through while there’s still time on his clock, and at a certain point his engineers and construction workers can’t keep pretending all the parts are fitting together

Another disaster from our incompetent Builder-in-Chief.

My neighbor just drove his pickup to his empty garbage can on the side of the road, hooked it up to the back of his pickup and dragged it up his normal sized driveway and unhooked it You buy a pickup you gotta think up ways to use it

‘In my own career, “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” met financial expectations, “Top Gun: Maverick” exceeded them and “Terminator: Dark Fate” fell short.’ Yeah, this is guy is a real David O. Selznick. We can trust him with the future of movies

The Times, one of the leading voices when it comes to 'protecting women and girls' calling a man who assaulted his young pregnant girlfriend, said he would rape the kids if he was a teacher and called for child sex abuse porn to be legal, 'brilliant'

Each year, talented dogs and their adoring fans gather on a California beach for the World Dog Surfing Championships.

Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion skeletons in Jason and the Argonauts are amazing even now. He animated the sequence by himself for more than four months -- without computers or even an easy way to check his work. We're looking into how he did it: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/how-ray-ha...

Because of the lead time involved in releasing a vinyl LP, they end up getting released before the album is even finished lol It’d be like if Chris Nolan released an incomplete version of The Odyssey to theaters and the finished version wouldn’t be ready till streaming

Bluesky to the nazis

The Verge@theverge.com · 2d ago

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

Watched Straight Time (1978) on the Criterion Channel. With the god tier performances from Dustin Hoffman, Harry Dean Stanton and Theresa Russell (as well as terrific slimeball character work from M. Emmett Walsh and Gary Busey) if I was an acting coach, this is a movie I would show my students

Me, when I’m in a grocery store and there’s a customer walking around whistling

Comic Tropes@comictropes.bsky.social · last wk.

The Whistler. A man who realized he could creep people out by the way he whistled, so he decided to become a vigilante. It’s just what folks did in the 40s.

during the lockdown in nyc, the sirens were incessant throughout the night. there were refrigerator trucks stacked with corpses. a field hospital was set up in central park.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d ago

RFK Jr: Trump wanted to end lockdowns. In Fauci's diary, he talks about how the president was calling him trying to get him to reopen the country BASH: The lockdowns were down by governors K: They cited Fauci B: Govs were hearing from hospitals that their ICUs were overrun K: That's not true

They said book were dead and movie theaters and vinyl and DVDs were dead and they were wrong, so how can they be trusted when they tell us linear tv is dead too?
