Reacher. The books are fun (if a bit silly at times) but the TV series with Alan Ritchson as Very Large Autism-Coded Man is more fun.
What are your favorite adaptations that transcend their source material? Blade Runner springs to mind

My pfp for Movember. Also doing my impression of “How do you do, fellow kids?” With ridiculous sunglasses

My “free” Labrador also turned out to be very expensive.
The “free” flying palace Trump pressured Qatar to give him, then rushed into service even though it lacks critical safety and security features, is getting costlier by the day. Meanwhile, regular Americans are paying more and more for gas, electricity, food, healthcare—stuff we need just to survive.
lmao Gianni looked like he was about to tackle Trump to get him out of the shot
Trump on stage with the World Cup Winners
The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

HOPE didn't raise its price when moving back to Manhattan. Now the conference is falling short with the attendee count. Please help with the tax-deductible A/V fundraiser where OVER 25% of the needed funds has already been raised! (Buying a ticket also helps a lot.) www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

DEAREST SUPREME LEADER, WE APPLAUD YOUR COURAGE AND MASCULINITY OF CHOOSING TO STAND IN THE HEAT FOR TWO HOURS. DON'T LET THOSE LIBERAL SCUM SEE YOU SWEAT! REMEMBER NOT TO DRINK ANY WATER FOR AT LEAST A DAY BEFORE THE EVENT! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. -=CULT OF THE DEAD COW=-
Missing Hunter S. Thompson pretty badly this July 4.
I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
Matt Levine just kinda casually dropping in his newsletter in a deadpan sure-everybody-knows-this way that the datacenter AND buy-now-pay-later booms are funded by exactly the same money--same firms! same people!--that have been driving private equity is such a pro move.
Detecting sound of something edible being opened, rooms away.
This is like 3 out of 10 biblical plagues right now
the white house is crashing out at the weather channel
Can’t help but notice all the people who said Obama would desecrate the White House with Escalades and rap music on the South Lawn are absolutely loving this UFC fight on the South Lawn. Probably just a coincidence.
taking the drug that turns you into Jon Polito but it got cut with mayonnaise
Joe Rogan looks like he’s about to introduce a Soviet Commissar or a Used Car Salesman of the Year at the local Kiwanis.
A Goth/Industrial Cyber Rave to make Wave Gothic Trefin pale by comparison.
Okay but What would YOUR totally gratuitous White House lawn event be, if YOU were the mad king of a dying superpower
We’ve got the Onion Newsvan circling the cursed UFC fight outside the White House.
defending North American national cuisines against unseasoned British imperialism is fine and all but I keep waiting for somebody to come in piloting New Orleans like a giant mech and flatten everybody
I'm now picturing in my head a power rangers situation where all the cuisines of the world come together against the unspiced monsters.
it's also funny that approximately every iconic and delicious national dish is the product not just of cultural cross-pollination but fairly recent cultural cross-pollination. tacos al pastor vs. chicken tikka masala vs. banh mi vs. gumbo vs. carbonara vs. croissant vs. idk spam musubi BATTLE ROYALE

It's not often that a living man gets such a vivid preview of how he will be mourned.
