STEVE-il Dead Rise

I just introduced a friend to RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD, but forgot to show her my glow in the dark Trash action figure

I wrote a Learned League One-Day! My apologies to the graders for making "Kris Kristofferson" an answer.

Change in Abstract

Before 2002, the New York Yankees won about a title every three years on average. After 2002, they’ve won 1 in 24 years.

Every airport needs a waiting room.

Kushner was managing a nine-figure slush fund set up by Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Why is this student so upset about the mushroom, though? What could it have done to make her protest across the whole continent

Weird. It’s like he didn’t even want to watch the actual game!

i tried to warn u about php bro. i told u

I just voted early in person in Ohio (one location per county), and it's genuinely a pleasant feeling to see all my broadly-defined neighbors and the people who work or volunteer at the BoE. Wholesome civic duty!

The macOS built-in curl, git, pip, python3, perl, ruby, and openssl all read /etc/ssl/cert.pem, which still has the emSign root, but they don't check revocation like Apple's Secure Transport libraries. This is, uh, a problem. git and pip especially. I added a short-term workaround to this page.

Nothing I have to say about this man would pass mods and there is no French Revolution emoji, so I will just spit on the ground and keep moving. IYKYK.

As one of the candidates featured in these polls - the infamous one in late June that showed me plummeting into single digits (which was at odds with our internals) - here's the impact of this "experiment"

A24 presents Jeremy Saunier's Slayground, a reboot of the very mid 1983 Donald Westlake adaptation, right? Right?

so restricting Ukraine's Starlink was Musk's idea, but after Moscow took advantage he became "alarmed about the possibility of adverse consumer reaction in Europe" to the "night of carnage" and denied responsibility I mean, it sounds like typical Elon

Add "for Tax Purposes" to a movie: Legally Blonde for Tax Purposes

I interviewed 83-year editor & sound designer Walter Murch, a legendary figure. The Godfather trilogy, Apocalypse Now, The Conversation, Ghost, The Unbearable Lightness of Being...and The English Patient, which turns 30 this year. Info on a free zoom talk included. www.rogerebert.com/interviews/t...

LITTLE NEMO (1911) was made before cel animation and Winsor McCay drew every single frame on sheets of white drawing paper. The film starts with a fictionalized portrayal of his animation process (starring the man himself) before switching to the hand-colored cartoon.

"October", 18 x 24", five screens. Chicago is trying to do Autumn right now, with mixed results.

missed National Coming Out Day. but came across this screenshot of the mass email i sent 12 years ago!

There's no hole deep enough for the people who made the decision to do this to the law-abiding Haitian refugees who revitalized dozens of America's dying small towns.

"The culture on X today is remarkably friendly and inclusive. It is a cheerful place. That cheerfulness is another differentiator. If you believe the world is falling apart and doomed only to get worse, that our obvious and real problems cannot be surmounted, X is not the platform for you."

The paragraph beginning "The culture on X today is remarkably friendly and inclusive. It is a cheerful place. That cheerfulness is another differentiator." is going to turn out to be GNU/Linux or even Marine Todd-level copypasta, usually followed by a screenshot that would make Cecil Rhodes cringe.

Finished watching the OG The Hitcher on #Criterion last night. It absolutely did not hit like it did when I was 11 and at a sleepover, but some nice cinematography. Also, I approve of a movie with no Lore: no dark pasts, no trauma metaphors, no explanations, just A Series of Bad Things Happen.

Anyway if you actually want to get lots of eyeballs and exposure you shouldn’t be posting on X, a site whose viewership has cratered just over the last 12 months, you should be posting short-form videos on YouTube and TikTok. I don’t like it either but that’s how it is.

Ruin a book by adding a word: Waffle House of Leaves

I know there’s bigger fish to fry, but I feel like there’s a genuine need for someone to try to follow up on the work of Douglas Rushkoff’s Frontline documentaries (the merchants of cool, the persuaders, generation like), and try to tackle how mercenary and transactional online life is

Plus, the inventor of the abortion drug she’s railing against was an anti-fascist Jewish scientist who joined the French resistance at age 15

I was once told by a cop, at a training triggered by a sharp increase in drugging and SA at large events in the 2010s, that their job was to disprove allegations, that 99% of victims were liars, and they were there to lock up people who made false allegations. Which was basically everyone.

Students made their first minicomics in my intro making course - mostly standard format but this student, a first time maker(!), did something so off the charts I’m still reeling from it! & he made like 12 of them for his classmates! A paper engineering feat of flipbookery as well as killer drawing!

ZINE BLOG: How many rich art collectors brag that they own a very valuable zine? That would be like saying, "I have something that's worth a thousand dollars!" No one in their world would be impressed. Zines and cheap artist books mostly help you avoid dealing with awful people with too much power.

Btw, I didn’t create the term “utopian porn”. Saw it recently in a post and instantly embraced it.

The O's kept Mike Elias and fired the Oriole Bird. defector.com/what-process...

It’s roasting time

"aspirational sociopathy" really does get at something about american culture right now

“She asked the powers at NASA to let her add a safeguard to prevent that error in a real flight, and they laughed it off as too unlikely… When an astronaut did make that blooper during the Apollo 8 mission, it caused necessary navigational data to vanish, and they called Hamilton in to get it back.”

In case you’re wondering, there is no prohibition on indicting a federal judge & sending him to prison, but he receives a salary and his seat judgeship remains occupied until impeached & removed
