An unexpected nugget of joy at this year's BBQ, a Brak t-shirt led to bad renditions of songs from Cartoon Planet, confusing some of the younger attendees.

Live look-in at that Panthers/Maple Leafs game.

Brings back great memories of the Video Station, just a few blocks from where I grew up. Had an amazing selection for such a small store. Was able to cut my teeth on classic movies well before TCM was a thing and, as an added bonus, was right next door to a Little Caesars.

WINNIPEG JETS WIN GAME ONE ✈️

FOR THE FIRST TIME, YOUR WINNIPEG JETS ARE CENTRAL DIVISION CHAMPS ✈️

The season finale of ‘Common Side Effects’ is violent and at times horrifying, but it ends on a hopeful note that aligns with co-creators Joe Bennett and Steve Hely’s approach to the entire series, which was recently renewed for a second season.

It's only April, and tons of new TV shows coming out, but going to be tough to top how brilliant the first season of Common Side Effects was. What a finale!

A great win for the Jets tonight and two awesome goals by KFC makes a great start to the weekend! #GoJetsGo

Can't say enough good things about Adult Swim's Common Side Effects, was skeptical when I saw the first bumpers for it, but damn, it really has been a masterpiece. Also, nice to enjoy weekly episodic TV, rather than binge watching (same with Sakamoto Days on Netflix).

Ok, this is the last one

If you need to do this much throat clearing before you can manage to say "Kidnapping people for political speech is very bad, actually" then it's time to step back, have a lozenge, and cede leadership to someone more suited to the moment.

Not only did Last Week Tonight have a nice tribute to George last night, they also made fun of my hometown eyesore. Thanks John Oliver!!!

Richard Donner told this great moustache-related story about working with GENE HACKMAN on Superman.

Headed over to rewatch the Nirvana and Pearl Jam eps and what's this, a Hall and Oates Unplugged and Duran Duran Unplugged (which was a banger) that I would not have bothered paying attention to in my youth. Music tastes have certainly evolved as I have aged...

Surest sign that Spring has arrived, Gary, Keith and Ron are back! Let's Go Mets! #lgm #mets

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Re-watching Babylon 5 with my son and the absolute joy of watching the Babylon Squared episode knowing the later payoff and the intro of one of my all-time favorite sci-fi characters Zathras...

Yeah so the Constitution isn’t really in effect right now

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

“WILL THERE BE SOME PAIN? YES, MAYBE”

De-Nazify shit.

We are living through Republicanism boiled down to its essence: Everyone should be deprived of everything, because otherwise, somebody I don't like might get something I don't want them to have. We call it an ideology, but it's really a personality: Greedy, withholding, suspicious, angry, cruel.

Finally getting a chance to catch up on Creature Commandos, which has been awesome, but went up another level for me by including a song from one of my favorite bands Firewater at the end of Episode 6. Excellent taste in music as always @jamesgunn.bsky.social!

If they're unable to bring themselves to consider nuclear options like withholding unanimous consent the bare minimum they can do is wheel a bunch of cancer patients out in front of cameras to say "Donald Trump is trying to murder me." If it's gonna be performance at least make it good performance.

What we have instead of an opposition party is a copy of Robert's Rules of Order that has learned how to do GoFundMes and insider trading
