I strongly suspect that this Musk-Trump spectacle is being exploited to distract the media and public from much more important shit.

Gina Rodriguez had a kind of actiony role/moment in a movie she did called Awake, and ever since seeing that, I genuinely want to see her in an action movie. I think she would be excellent.

why is it that the second Greta started making connections between climate change and capitalism, colonialism, and imperialism, Greta's media coverage came to a screeching halt?

This woman is utterly detestable.

If you're making a TV comedy using a laugh track in 2025, what are you doing with your life? Stop it. Go do something better with the life you've been given.

I'm the kind of nerd that gets excited about changing over to a different web browser.

Liv Tyler is so damned sweet that I feel like I'm not even worthy of having her as a celebrity crush. If the whole world was half as good as Liv Tyler is, it would be downright utopian.

What is the point of a live remake of an animated movie (How to Train Your Dragon) when it appears to follow the original quite closely and seems to try to look like the animated original instead of looking "real?" Answer: this is Gen Z[oomer]'s first taste of nostalgia capitalism. Gross.

If only all the ignoramuses understood that liberals have an equal or greater capacity for violence and are just as armed but are far more restrained. They may end up regretting their audacity if they ever find the limits of liberal restraint. If this becomes inescapably existential, MAGA won't last

JB Pritzker is saying and doing a lot of things right, but he is still a billionaire. I will never trust a billionaire. Not ever. There is no ethical way to become a billionaire. There is no ethical way to be/stay a billionaire.

Bring it on, you orange sack of shit. Deport me. I was born in Wisconsin. My parents were born in Wisconsin. My grandparents were born in Wisconsin. Deport me. You're a fascistic narcissist. You're a villain. Your Russian master is a villain. Your Israeli buddy is a genocidal maniac. Deport me.

I'm pretty sure there are more kids with measles right now than trans athletes. This administration is stupid and evil.

Coming soon: maybe some positivity.

Middle and upper class Americans get upset about homelessness all while owning multiple rental properties that they refuse to sell and charge high rent for because their goal is not an egalitarian society but instead to have their lifestyles subsidized by the poor by holding their homes hostage.

I wouldn't even write a dramatic or detailed specified end for him in my handy-dandy notebook formerly of shinigami possession. He isn't worthy of the effort, and he doesn't deserve an especially notable end. I just want him to end. That goes for several others too. Fellow anime nerds understand.

At the bare minimum, we need to normalize truly shaming people for being stupid again.

Treason. If everyone else feels squeamish, I'll gladly trigger the guillotine for every single traitor. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

If I was 20 years younger knowing what I know today, there is a good chance that I'd be an ecoterrorist. I grow increasingly convinced that nonviolence is no longer an option and wonder if it ever really was. There are just so many people who are lost causes with which coexistence seems impossible.

Can't someone just do the thing already? You know the thing I mean. I can't say it, but you know. How has there not been someone competent enough to just do the thing yet?
