@babsvan.bsky.social has promised to indulge my vanity if I catalog the chronological Spielberg retrospective Carrie and I just started, so here goes. I'll note my previous familiarity with each one as Know It, Seen It, or First Time.
I wish I could declare something awesomely obscure, but it's Double Indemnity, and I'm not sure anything else is even close. (maybe Detour can be seen in the rearview mirror)

All my Chicago followers: please reskeet this!
Steve Greenberg@slgreenberg.bsky.social · 3d agoDon’t know if anything has come of this, but you’ve got to appreciate good people. Not always enough kindness and neighborliness nowadays. On Fransico in between the Galter Life Center and River Park. Maybe we can help ring and finger reunite.

Meanwhile, green bananas were deemed "perfectly acceptable" by David M. Granny Smith.

GM CEO Mary Barra is introducing Trump at his rally. Something to keep in mind if you're in the market for a vehicle anytime soon.
Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

it seems like whenever i go on bluesky all i see is a bunch of people talking to each other and posting about stuff
Who needs endangered species when instead there could be guys pulling donuts in the sand, impressing exactly no one for miles around?
Gravel Influencer@gravelinfluencer.bsky.social · 2w agoOne of my favorite summer traditions is people in Massachusetts losing their minds because Piping Plover habitats prevent them from driving onto beaches. You don't own the beach. It's not just a playground for your truck.
A new challenger approaches...

Jennifer Connelly in The Rocketeer or Dark City, but maybe even hotter in Career Opportunities because there's no "good story" or "interesting characters" to get in between Ms Connelly and the viewer's lust.

johnny cab in total recall feels more apt. ugly dangerous crap designed to steal jobs and pretend to have conversations. at no moment do you consider johnny cab to be pondering concepts
Shady Inference 🌫️@blot.city · 7mo agoYou won't catch me posting matrix or terminator bits in relation to real-world AI deployment because that would constitute a reproduction and endorsement of the foundational marketing lie that these technologies ought to be conceived of as comparable to the "thinking machine" science fiction premise
The Dodgers who went to the White House should receive every bit as much judgment and condemnation as the Giants pitchers who Sharpied the Pride hats. ICE spent their World Series-winning season terrorizing their city. Fuck them for doing photo ops with fascists instead of standing with their fans.

Darren and Poley@darrenandpoley.bsky.social · 4w agowhile we talk about the RFK's Diarrhea 2026 stuff, don't overlook the fact that there's a dog food recall going on too. unfortunately we don't have a good spokesvehicle for the FDA anymore, so Good Housekeeping will have to do.
Ossoff: "We understand the president may be threatening to declare sitting senators illegitimate. If that's the course of action he pursues, he's calling GA voters illegitimate...he was humiliated as a committed lifelong racist that it was Black voters in Georgia who were instrumental in his defeat"
Lindsey Graham spent the last decade of his life in public service as a US Senator, trying hard to be remembered as an enemy of the Constitution who worked to destroy American democracy and exhibited occasional signs that he knew why that was bad but kept doing it anyway. I will honor his choice.
Phil Plait@philplait.bsky.social · last mo.When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.
