There is apparently going to be a Murderbot series with Alexander Skarsgard, which seems a bit off to me. I absolutely read the character as being essentially Gwendoline Christie.

New Girl is gaslighting me into thinking Zooey Deschanel is super hot. I mean, don't get me wrong, she's very pretty, but this show makes me want to be a Property Brother, which is just madness.

Trying to understand America's current crisis without examining Tech Fascism (the "Dark Enlightenment," the "network state") is like analyzing 9/11 while ignoring Al Qaeda. This isn't random chaos – it is an orchestrated attack by a small, dangerous, and determined group.

how are you doing today? undulating with fearsomeness? schlorping a beautiful moist trail of merriment in your wake? still trying to claw your way up from the depths of the bog in which you spent last night submerged in swampy ecstasy?

A fun historical fact about the French Resistance during WWII is that none of those people were ever going to get a shot at Hitler. They were, however, in a position to do something about the people Hitler relied on to carry out his orders. This has been your random history fact of the day.
