Hate when I have a blog post of geeky silliness half finished on my computer and I can’t finish it yet due to a near daily headache caused by a bad reaction to a certain overpriced supplement.

Russell Brand has spent the past few years aligning himself with the American right as allegations of sexual violence were made public against him. He knew he would find defenders and protection among their ranks. That should tell you everything you need to know about what the party represents

So, I can’t be the only disappointed by the ending Netflix’s Devil May Cry animated series, can I?

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

So, I finally did it. I figured out how to connect a ps5 controller to my MacBook, did my free trial of Apple Arcade, and tried out Sonic Dream Team. It’s fine. I like the aesthetic and the gameplay is basic enough. Seriously, @sega-west.bsky.social, port this to consoles.

Fascism places emotion over reason. Words become just tools to achieve the vision of the Leader. In our post-truth world, this takes the special form of the inversion of meaning: fascists call other people "fascists" and antisemites call other people "antisemites" snyder.substack.com/p/antisemiti...

Stop what you’re doing. Go see The Day The Earth Blew Up. I laughed so damn hard during this movie, and it’s a crime that WB isn’t advertising it the way they should.

Was lucky enough to catch an early access screening for #Novocaine, a bloody action comedy about a man named Nathan Caine, born with a disorder that prevents him from feeling pain on a quest to save his girl. The violence can be extreme, but it’s a lot of fun, and has a likable hero throughout.

#mickey17 is a twisted sci-fi comedy that has a lot to say about society, classism, colonialism, and other stuff. Robert Pattinson continues to impress with his acting talent.

Remember: Musk is a coward at heart. A weak man, not a strong one. A fragile ego just like the guy he shares an office with.

Since it’s Ramadan, and I’ve been on a Sonic kick lately (Sonic the Hedgehog media is my mental comfort food, and I always indulge in it during fasting), here’s my ranking of the Sonic animated adaptations (that aren’t promo animations for games). 🧵

Dragonball Daima is damn good. It’s basically the most pure Toriyama of the three sequel series. It’s a lot less irritating than Super ever was.

I said for months that if he won, it would be infinitely worse for Gaza and the Middle East. I’m not going to say “I told you so.” I just expect those people to own up to the fact that they made a mistake and this is the consequence.

The embrace and protection of Andrew Tate at the highest level of US government tells you everything you need to know about this rotten administration. They worship at the altar of abusing women and girls. Their version of morality supports sex trafficking under the guise of camming
