It's no coincidence that I call everyone I don't like a "Nazi." It turns out, Nazis are the only kind of people I dislike on general principle. The rest of you are only mildly annoying by comparison.

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Sometimes the stranger you meet is all persona: on-line, off-line, all the time. I'm Giles. But more than that, I'm Giles for you.

This spring, FANGORIA pays tribute to one of the most visionary filmmakers of all time - David Lynch. Though Lynch’s film work spanned (and defied) genres, his dark visions over the years – from ERASERHEAD to BLUE VELVET to LOST HIGHWAY and beyond – have left an indelible imprint on our readers.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Apologies for posting so often but there's so much going on. The personal stories coming out are gut wrenching and deserve to be heard. Ranger Gibbs is one of them.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

Decades before DEI was part of the vernacular, Morrie Turner’s “Wee Pals”—the first syndicated strip with a racially diverse cast—first appeared 60 years ago, on February 15, 1965. Here's the debut, with a punchline that is, sadly, still relevant.

"Hanzo is presented as the epitome of manly rectitude. Is he strong?... Is he honest?... And most important of all: Does he have an enormous penis? I’m surprised you even feel the need to ask."--Shane Wilson (@shanewilson.bsky.social) on "Hanzo the Razor: The Sword of Justice" (1972)

"...alas, the whole thing feels as if director Adam Mason watched too many Guy Ritchie movies. He constantly sabotages the experience through snarky asides and observations, rendering his protagonist not only unsympathetic, but also irritating."--Giles Edwards (@gilesforyou.bsky.social)

It blows me away that the #Linux community's collective desktop culture sampled Enlightenment window manager, the Star Trek desktop, and Ubuntu's rotating 3D cube file manager, and STILL went "Nah, let's settle on the generic menu bar, start button, and some icons."

People just pick on #GenXers because there's fewer of us and we don't care. The only time a GenX brings up their generation is to avoid being labeled a Boomer or Millennial.

"There’s something about the clash of styles between Pirkle’s fire-and-brimstone anti-Communism and Ormond’s sleazy drive-in aesthetics that captures people’s attention (and derision). It’s a marriage made in Heaven: bad movie Heaven."--Gregory J. Smalley 366weirdmovies.com/53-if-footme...

The Reader Queue sets its sights on feudal Japan, where a cop with some serious BDE is tackling crime one female informant at a time. The film is troublesome, but please enjoy this review that swings a big stick and includes one of the best puns I’ve ever written.
