Disappointed GenX guy. But also a cat dad, so I have that going for me.

Before everything ends, I have decided to get back into being a film vacuum. Doing nothing but watching new movies or movies that are new to me. Last night - The Apartment (1960) Tonight - I Love Boosters / Harold and Maude (1971) Tomorrow - Obsession Sunday - Backrooms

Staring at my copy of Gish and being sad about how it's almost impossible to listen to it without being reminded of what a grade-A douchebag piece of shit this guy is.

Just going to leave this inspiring story right here…sweet dreams…

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Would pay a good amount of filthy yanqui dollars for Ed to be released on physical media. youtu.be/5MEDkaGOE1o?...

Happy birthday to Tom Cavanagh, born on this day in 1963 in Ottawa! He rose to fame on the TV show Ed in the early-2000s. Since then, he has appeared in The Flash, Providence, The Following, Eli Stone and more. He is an Emmy and Golden Globe nominee.

I'm old enough to have grown up with Mel Blanc seared into my brain for how these characters are supposed to sound. None of the folks that took over after him, no disrespect meant, never quite worked for me. Until Eric Bauza. This is a terrible loss.

Hey fellow CISSPs, is this bad? Because this seems like a surefire way to get at least one person to now open every single email and click on every link just out of spite. Security teams that do this deserve all of the badness that befalls them.

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

This movie was completely overlooked and is totally worth finding and watching.

Movie recommendation for tonight, Underwater Kristen Stewart stars in this sci-fi/horror set in an underwater mining facility, and that's all I'm going to say about it because I just watched this one night without knowing a thing about it, which was definitely the ideal viewing circumstance!

Sweet.

Holy cow. The Guinea-Bissau offices of the two Danish researchers who were funded by RFK Jr. to conduct an unethical experiment with the HepB vaccine just had their offices raided and vaccines seized by the police. Great work on reporting this story once again by @melodyschreiber.com.

The generation that got to buy cheap houses thanks to a postwar construction boom, then blocked new housing construction to juice their asset values is now whining that they have to pay taxes on their unearned wealth. Just breathtaking selfishness.

As a homeowner, allow me to say that people are stupid and selfish.

“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

This is not beautiful to see. This is the most racist democracy on planet earth, and people just expect Black people to sing negro spirituals and "overcome." It's not working. This still happens for one reason and one reason only: white US folk don't hold each other accountable for this racism.

hot damn!

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm Cody, I'm a watercolor artist. Someone once referred to my color palette as "electric pastel", which I think is quite apt. I'm open for new projects, book and comic covers, board games, TTRPGs, and personal commissions. Portfolio: www.codyvrosh.com
