gavin newsom??? representing the interests of the rich and not of the people who elected him??? why, I never! next you'll be telling me he's been throwing homeless people's few possessions in the garbage
You're not going to believe this but Gavin Newsom is taking the side of capital over workers. In this case it's tricky because he's backing the very MAGA allies his cosplaying X account claims he's fighting. www.wsj.com/business/med...

Every accusation is a confession. As a former theater operator, I can tell you from experience that the current right-wing conspiracy theory about The Odyssey’s ticket sales has currency because this is, in fact, how small ideologue studios juice their own numbers to make their sales seem strong.
I love how insane everyone is becoming.
For all the crazy high concept, sci-fi shenanigans in that show, the funniest thing to me will always be Leela declaring “Well, good night. I’m going to make all my meals for the next month and freeze them”.
What's a Futurama line that lives forever in your head? Mine is, "Oh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr. I'm My Own Grandpa."
God look at how cute this little piece of shit is.
Lots of reasons Trump happened, many facets to his appeal. But a top-tier one is that he’s the patron saint of unearned entitlement. He’s the icon to pray to when someone you don’t see as a person questions your idea of yourself

Twitter was wrong about Platner, wrong about the Odyssey, wrong about pretty much everything, but you know, it really reflects the mood of the people, you know?
Oppenheimer and The Odyssey are movies about men feeling guilt and shame over their life's crowning achievement bringing untold suffering into the world clearly this is an expression of Christopher Nolan's guilt for popularizing superhero movies with The Dark Knight

Scoop: The AI music generator Suno was hacked. Hacker shared source code that shows how the tool was made and part of the music and podcasts that were scraped to create it. Decades worth of music, lyrics, and podcasts from YouTube, Deezer, Genius & more www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

I just created www.lgbtqlegislation.com which builds on the work of the LegiAlerts team to provide an interactive data dashboard to look at 20+ years of anti-LGBTQ legislation and especially anti-trans legislation. It also includes an overview of pro-LGBTQ legislation. Check it out!

I don’t know what is worse, the collapse of accessible (local), professional criticism or the rise of the influencer masquerading as a critic.
It's so silly, because without criticism, you're completely at the mercy of the advertisers. The influence of the critic is so small compared with the power of the advertiser. (1980)
