if there's one thing we know about American business in the late 1800s & early 1900s, before the terrible modern era of regulation beginning around 1910, was how great and safe consumer products made by industrial combines were and how positively workers and suppliers were treated, I am not a kook

Also the Harley Quinn anual by @ericafails.bsky.social which is great, because of course it is, but also confirms my opinions on cruises. Never in life!

Jorge Mateo cannot be taking crucial AB against good pitchers. He was completely overmatched. Might as well have been up there with a wiffle bat.

There’s even a big NO SOLICITING sign at the entrance to the neighborhood. He even pulled the “I’m just trying to do my job.” My feelings on that are best summed up thusly.

The fact that qualified, capable candidates with normal flaws are having trouble with a gold-plated tin pot dictator and convicted felon is not a reflection on the candidates; it is a reflection on the electorate. White people are outrageously racist. That’s it. A smidge less racism and we’d win.

It’s funny how American screenwriting courses seem to be full of edicts to elide any scene that doesn’t ‘move the story forwards’, yet every other episode of ‘prestige TV’ is an hour-long flashback focussing on the backstory of why a minor character wears a particular hat.

EVs will soon become so much cheaper than ICEs that everyone will ditch their gas cars all at once, sending the used car market into a death spiral. The last time this happened, Hollywood spent about a decade demolishing the excess stock via cheap TV car chases—a paradise we could regain!

New York has a long history of refusing to borrow ideas about how cities work from other places and then acting like it invented an idea when it finally does, but “put trash in bins instead of piling bags on sidewalks” takes the cake.

I see we've reached the "famous artist credibly accused of sexual assault wasn't actually a great artist and you're a chump for liking him" phase. Consider that pretending terrible people can't make great art helps terrible people who make great art whedon their way into vulnerable communities.

there's something to be said about it not just being a play on abraham and isaac, but also being tolkien's thoughts about his own approach to a creation story and to what degree he is abraham. so beautiful. dudes absolutely rock.

And how Aulë only wanted to emulate God by subcreation and not supplant him by domination? And how he realized his creations had been given life when they cowered from the hammer he raised to destroy them? I mean occasionally yeah I guess. sometimes.
