I like Jack Lowden as much as anyone and think he's excellent on Slow Horses. However, it's exactly what makes him perfect for Slow Horses that makes him totally wrong for Bond. He's just too empathetic.

Of course I say this as someone who believes that MGM/Amazon should turn the series into a Cold War period piece, so nobody should listen to me.

@rincewind.run Finishing the first season of Reacher, based on your posts about the show, and I think your description needs a minor amendment: "what if a man was large, but also very hard to hit with a bullet?"

I'm struggling a bit with this: Someone posted something like "watched [universally well regarded old movie] last night. Banger!" On the one hand, I'm happy that someone has enjoyed a truly great work of cinematic art. On the other, I feel like they were surprised it was so good?

I initially laughed at Meta using Bowie's "Five Years" in their ad, but now I think I agree with those who are saying that Meta is purposely using the irony to make fun of those who are calling out AI's destructive potential. The lyrics are too obviously apocalyptic for it to be a mistake.

OK, so, two things I just love about this costume rendering: 1. Mackie perfectly captures Burnett's face in all its quirky beauty. There's no mistaking that's Carol Burnett. 2. Even the man's handwriting is stylish. Beautifully legible with a rakish angle and generous curves.

I can't express how much I don't give a shit about "Aaron Rodgers...Explosive Claims About Shailene Woodley." The only time I want to read the words "Aaron Rodgers" and "explosive" in a headline together is if it's telling me what kind of diarrhea he died from.

Wait, hear me out. Maybe. Just maybe. Taking a baseball team that's been firing on all cylinders for the last two months and reinserting two players who've seen almost no play time all year... Maybe that's not the best plan? #redsox

I will echo this sentiment. The first issue introduces a fresh take on the characters that hits some of the important notes of the team's history, while interpreting aspects in exciting new ways. I can't wait to see where this goes. #legionofsuperheroes #lsh #longlivethelegion

It fills me with IMMENSE joy to inform you that Legion of Super-Heroes is everything you want it to be and more. Old fan or new, DO NOT pass this up. What a weird and wonderful comic book. Thanks @joshuawilliamson.bsky.social, @cleanlined.bsky.social & @tamrabonvillain.bsky.social. #comics #review

There's an alarm beep sounding every 4 seconds from a locked room 15 feet from my desk. It's a secure space, so no one here can open the door to silence the alarm. How this doesn't count as a health hazard that warrants sending us all home to telework is beyond me.

This is the journalistic philosophy that everyone should be following. If the media would stop giving this administration the benefit of the doubt, and instead accepted that they really are just this stupid, we might be able to get through to more people how truly fucked up this time period is.

Drives me nuts when NPR calmly asserts that the "trade war" with Canada will be solved by negotiation and not by successful ego massaging of the maniacal narcissist in the White House.

I'm looking for a graphic designer in Southern California who can put together a 20x30 poster for my model railroad club. Budget is only $50-100, so I'm not expecting the world. Just want to pay an actual human instead of polluting the world with more A.I. slop.

Went looking for graphic designers on Bluesky and apparently I missed the whole "graphic design is my passion" thing? What a treasure trove of unintentional crap! Lost a good hour scrolling that nonsense.

Cite this whenever anyone calls the left "radical." Also remember that most of Europe already has at least half of that list in place.

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.” - Archbishop Desmond Tutu One side wants fascism. The other side wants healthcare as a human right. To even attempt to conflate the two is absurd.

So, #Supergirl was good, actually. Seriously, go see it. It's fun. Remember when we went to movies because they were fun? And didn't demand that they hit all the beats of artistic perfection (whatever they may be...)?

To my trans friends and followers on here, I see you, I love you, and I support you in this difficult time. Trans women are women; trans men are men. And kids are kids. Just let them be kids already.

At our weekly meetings, our supervisor starts off with a few "Would You Rather" questions break the ice. One of today's questions was, "would your rather live in the world of Star Wars or Lord of the Rings?" Hoo boy did that divide the room between the casual fans and the actual nerds.

Someone put a yellow package of wipes on the counter in the kitchenette at work and every time I go in there I think it's a package of Golden Oreos... ...which, let's be clear, my diabetic ass shouldn't be eating... ...but it feels like an attack every, single time. Y U not Oreos!?!

There's so much going on in this image. Action number 1 The statues of Superman The "High Voltage" poster Mekt walking past Garth reading by the light of his own electric arcs Love it. #longlivethelegion #legionofsuperheroes

You know, there's a ton of shitty stuff in the news today, but news that DC is launching a new Legion of Super-Heroes series this fall is buoying me in ways I'm honestly surprised by. It's like, we can have nice things? Really? #longlivethelegion #legionofsuperheroes

Remember when we had a thoughtful, empathetic, humble president?

Barack Obama@barackobama.bsky.social

To everyone who helped bring the Obama Presidential Center to life, thank you. Michelle and I are so grateful for all your dedication and hard work over the years. I got a little teary-eyed tonight thinking about my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson.
