I heard they are going to call it the Laz System - Looking at Zone /s

They really need to have a special SNL Weekend Update every week through the summer. Imagine all the stuff they are going to miss out on. Someone get Lorne on the phone.

Oh Yeah! Finally, my last Twitter follow, now on Bluesky. Welcome!

I guess you never heard the tragedy of Darth Rambo the Vengful.

Who would have thought that today, of all days, that would finally come true. RIP GB.

I hunger! Man this game cost me so many quarters back in the day. An almost 3 hour doc? I'm in heaven. Thank you!

Those Cyberdyne Systems Model 01, the T-010, were janky af.

New internet meme. Based on your tattoos which gang would Trump put you in?

They better have a 60's Marvel bullpen looking out the window scene. Looking forward to this.

What's interesting is that the audience is filled with time travelers, just waiting for this to happen.

Wow, the art in Spider-man #1 is some of the best I've seen in years. I want posters of the cover and the psychosis enemies double spread. That panel with Spidey dropping the truck on Rhino is just *chef's kiss*

This dude is literally getting paid to play Balatro. That is the life!! 😍

Those millionaires and billionaires are giddy, buying up all these stocks at the fire sale. Even cheaper to do stock buybacks. Also, Trump needed something legitimate to put all his $Trump memecoin money into. This stock market collapse is exactly what they wanted to happen.

I still have him sitting on a shelf. It makes me smile to think that some Kenner board ok'd a guy in a hideous 70's suit with loafers as a toy but only as long as he came with a cool briefcase that explodes.

The problem is that with all the shenanigans going on with DOGE can we even trust the US Bureau of Labor Statistics to give us accurate numbers. Seems like they can report anything that the Executive Branch wants to hear. Count some things, don't count others, type of stuff.

Deregulation = making things shittier and unsafer. I don't want to sacrifice my safety for cheaper products. You know what would more easily bring down the price of products? Removing unnecessary tariffs to provide a massive tax cut to millionaires and billionaires.

I would watch the shit out of this show. 6 seasons and a movie please!

This is wonderful news! Congratulations on getting the whole team back together. Strangely enough Apple alerted me yesterday that my "current subscription" was ending and it made me miss you all the more.

This is a good use of my cancelled WaPo sub money. Thanks!

I think there are about 5 of us Fancy Lads who know the answer to this.

Thank you and the team for all your hard work. If I was paid minimum wage for all the hours I've played this game I'd be a millionaire.

This is fine. Everyone knows that over-65 people are tech wizards who are totally comfortable with a website. I can only image all the scams that are going to happen when people are emailed from "Social Securiity"to make direct deposit changes via a website link.

I am so envious of you Aaron! Congratulations. You are now an official member of The Rebellion πŸ˜€

Wil in Dec. your Ready Room sign-off made it seem like the show was ending. Can you confirm if you'll be back for Strange New Worlds Season 3? I never missed one of your shows; really enjoyed the behind the scenes stuff, and your love for all things Trek.

Our OLD reliable toaster finally died. Did research and found that no one is happy with modern toasters. Seems that the heating elements are made more cheaply than the past to save money (to add screens?). Ended up finding someone with new-old-stock of our beloved toaster and got it again.

Page 5 with Doom disregarding the laws is f'ing prescient. Rarely have I read a comic so believable. Excellent writing.

I like to go into a game blind, but if it has a lot of systems I like to check out a couple of those "I wish I had known" videos to see if I'm missing something. I remember one time it was a simple thing about sliding down ladders quickly.

Monolith is gone?😒 Shogo, Blood, F.E.A.R.? So much talent! They should have just let them make a modern version of No One Lives Forever. NOLF 3 would be them printing money. Thanks for the years of fun. You deserve so much better.

He was Googling Domingo's backstory.

My wife and I are big Magnolia fans and that introduced us to Ricky Jay. In 2005 we heard he was going to be putting on a show in DC. It was his 52 Assistants show and the best live performance I've ever seen. We talk about it often. Thanks to Chris we now have a good copy of this for posterity.

The issue for me is that artificial intelligence is marketed as being an improvement on natural intelligence when all it seems to be is a collection of trivia. Facts without wisdom, without experience, are hollow. When people rely on LLMs to solve their problems they are giving up their humanity.

This whole concert was pure joy in an otherwise dark time. It’s worth subscribing to Peacock to watch it.

The first time you wear that shirt and get ketchup on it you are going to be so pissed.

Smack dab in the middle of my personal Marvel golden age. I think this was the issue where Hawkeye hurt his hearing by holding an ultrasonic arrowhead in his mouth. I remember picking this one off the rack, worried that he really died.

I guess after 86 years of Atlas/Marvel comics drawn/inked/colored by humans they just couldn't find someone to work on this poster.

Either @nytpitchbot.bsky.social took over Schumer's account or he's sending us hidden messages in some sort of elaborate code.

You are a modern day Mr. Wizard. One of the best things about YouTube. It seems like those baseboard heaters need 2 or 3 limit switches because of their length and placement.
