It never fails to fill me with rage that Australia has worse internet than most third world countries, yet we're the ones who invented WiFi to begin with. And all because our government is totally incompetent and refuses to create modern infrastructure. Fucking infuriating.

Literally everything that happens in episodes 5 and 6. If the story had been made into a film as originally planned, I think it would've gone down much better with the fandom. It has a rocky start, but it builds to an incredible last act and ends on a high. Reminds me of Rogue One in that way.

my latest: Warner Bros. Discovery is splitting back up into two companies, just three years after its multibillion-dollar merger. it's a disaster entirely of David Zaslav's making—yet he gets to keep Warner and HBO for himself, in an arrangement that promises to be disastrous for American culture:

Why am I not surprised that someone who makes movies that are purposely hateful, brutal and masochistic just for the sake of it is gasp an asshole

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence. They are in charge.

"Mainstream media has a duty to inform its audience that Trump/Miller policies are in fact hateful. But it rarely does so. Moran is to be commended for speaking truth to power. Speaking truth to power is, after all, what journalists are supposed to do." — @nberlat.bsky.social

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

For anyone looking for a really thorough debunk of all of Joe Rogan's misinformation in this topic (and just how obviously he's attempted to inject psuedo-science and public smears into, what could have been, a fun discussion) see Professor Dave's video on the subject. youtu.be/JK4Fo6m9C9M?...

Not only is Joe Rogan an anti-intellectual moron who promotes psuedo-archeology and fake science, he's a blatant liar and a coward. His smear-campaign is absolutely disgusting, low even for Joe. Thank you for continuing to stand up for the truth, Flint. 🫡

Lots of games are worth $80. An enormous amount of work goes into making video games, and they're becoming increasingly expensive to produce. If you can't afford a game at its release price, that's fine, just wait for a sale. But don't talk rubbish.

Shoutout to this article from Doctor Who TV, it's actually really well written! And touches on every issue that stopped last season's finale working for me. RTD seriously, desperately needs a script editor. He's so careless that it borders on gross negligence www.doctorwhotv.co.uk/doctor-who-o...

I know #doctorwho season 1 was a year ago, but I still occasionally think about how... literally nothing in Empire of Death made any sense. Every now and then I'll catch myself like: "wait... why the fuck did it snow???"

I was a medic at the Santa Ana protests in OC today. I watched police fire tear gas, flash bangs, & rubber bullets into crowds of men, women, & children. Other medics and I were clearly marked with red crosses, and the police were targeting us. One of the most fucked up things I’ve ever seen.

my main takeaway after spending the afternoon at the national history day competition is that the kids are pretty alright. also, that reactionaries are right to fear the consequences of kids learning the truth.

"Bring the world together"? I.... can think of A LOT of franchises that are less divisive than the Wizarding World. Even Star Wars doesn't have such a schism, or as bad a smell around it, as Potter. Because in that case, at least the toxicity does not come from THE PRIMARY CREATOR.

Mon Mothma's Wedding Death-Dance is The Song of Summer. How "Niamos! (Chandrilian Club Mix)"🎶 from #Andor went from a moment of bleak catharsis to a social media phenomenon. It's now growing far beyond the #StarWars fandom.

When police abuse their power without consequence and the people riot, it's a sign of an unjust system, but a healthy populace. When fascist institutions are able to thoughtlessly operate, it becomes the responsibility of the populace to... give them something to think about.

it's kind of nuts that the Empire unveiled the Death Star, destroyed Alderaan, and had the Death Star blown up on the same day. Imagine what the memes on Star Twitter were like.

Peter Capaldi regenerated into Jodie Whittaker who generated into David Tennant who regenerated into Ncuti Gatwa who regenerated into Billie Piper... before the Doctor Who series 10 soundtrack released.
