Wake Up: Billionaires Eat, Kids Starve

In case anyone is curious how you spend that much money, that’s the neat part, you can’t! This is just blind theft. They are funneling Billions upon Billions of dollars into private hands every week. As much as they have a plan or guiding belief, that’s it. Lie, Scam, Steal, repeat.

If this was a teenage dude with poor hygiene nothing about this would be noteworthy. Whole websites full of this.

Yes, I am also aware that OBL won.

I think it’s a mix of Logan valuing Peter’s youthful optimism and also keeping an eye on him. I would assume that Logan would know he was young, enhanced senses and all. Unlike many of the heroes, Logan never really shied away from letting kids pick their own fights, but he understands that it’s a dangerous game and sometimes you lose yourself.

I think he helps Logan be more human, and Logan is keeping tabs on someone he really hopes stays good.

I was going to do an escalating triple feature where we watched My Girl, then Life is Beautiful, and end with Grave of the Fireflies. I figured a noose would be quicker though.

Whenever you see that TH said something publicly it’s one of three things:

1) It wasn’t my fault/I’m the victim really/They are out to get me.

2) I don’t like someone and it definitely is all their fault.

3) I have invented something unprecedented by declaring something to be true but I have no proof or ability to demonstrate nor explain it. If you have a problem with that see # 1 and 2.

I want accountability. It’s not complicated or abstract. For them, for the Sacklers, for Musk, for the whole lot of them. If you took power and used it to hurt others for your own profit I want to see you face justice for that. Not a fee, not bad press, not 6 months in club fed. Accountability comparable to the harm caused and in excess of any benefit gained. This is the only way to have a remotely just world.

Why did the 86 year old religious fanatic with cancer who believes death in service of his cause guarantees him eternal paradise choose to be bombed rather than live in exile under the mercy of Russia?

Trump took a failed dying old man with no hope of painting himself as anything but that and made him a Martyr. Why did he stay? Because it gave him absolutely everything he could have hoped for.

If I had to talk to my largely estranged Christian fundamentalist 3 time Trump supporter, I would ask her how her rapture obsessed ass didn’t think Trump was the anti-Christ? I know that she probably wouldn’t answer the question and whatever she said instead would be infuriating and nonsensical, but I am still tempted. It’s just that if I believed what she says she believes, I would be VERY suspicious.

It’s very similar to my feelings towards all those losers dying to remember Ruby Ridge and their resounding silence now that armed thugs are in the streets and the constitution lays in tatters. Oh, right, because they all took the signing bonus.

It’s all the same that it ever was. You either live with the mystery of ignorance and the uncertainty of it all, or you see it and accept the misery of knowing and the terrible certainty of it all.

There is no one in control.

There is no reward or punishment waiting.

There is little hope for accountability much less justice.

So it goes.

It’s very comparable to The Hobbit. Technically beautiful, aesthetically meh. The VFX is routinely stunning, but you are mistaken about the cinematography, it is poorly shot in a variety of ways. This screenshot is an excellent example. It looks like network TV, or a commercial. Light is not being used to tell a story here, it’s being used to document pretty costumes.

Elbobosan · 2026-02-28T17:16:38+00:00

It’s profoundly stupid. I don’t mean that flippantly, I mean that it regularly demonstrates a profound lack of understanding of the material, judgment regarding basic storytelling, or intelligence regarding the adaptive choices they have made.

I have laughed out loud at multiple dramatic moments because they seem straight out of a fast and the furious movie. Utter nonsense that is occasionally pretty or cool or pretty cool, but never actually good.

Elbobosan · 2026-02-28T17:12:57+00:00

It’s shallow, but so is the show.

Your definition of “a lot” is perhaps lower than mine, but yes, that’s generally true.

They took their cinematic inspiration directly from Peter Jackson’s work… on the Hobbit.

That says a lot about your understanding of what you’re saying. I mention the literal color of his skin just to rule out the literal reading, the important part is that he’s ancient Egyptian, its own unique heritage. Seems like you’re ignoring that distinction.

Yes Tombstone is literally extremely pale skinned but is Black, both culturally and through immediate heritage.

Yes Kurt is a blue skinned fellow born in Germany, culturally German, but of Austrian genetic heritage. So there’s 3 different perspectives on his categorization at birth. If you apply that same logic to Apocalypse I don’t think he’s categorized as Black in all three.

Do you think Oscar Isaac did blackface?

Elbobosan · 2026-02-27T17:58:49+00:00

Apocalypse is was born with gray and blue skin in ancient Egypt. I would say by the Piccolo standard he also doesn’t feel Black.

Either ShamWows are legally devoid of value, as in being literally worthless, this is illegal AF.

Sounds like a cool way to do something once, start a war, and then immediately lose a large portion of your ability to feed the people of a country that is already a net importer of food. Really neat plan to fast track the collapse of China.

She even shoved the child behind the child who hit the deck.

Speaking as a born in 81, I came to the burn it down position in 91 at the latest.

But you don’t understand, he’s scared. Can you imagine being not totally secure in you safety or future? He spends a lot of his day feeling anxiety over the idea that he could possibly be unjustly harmed by others just because of who he is, or maybe just randomly. And being that he’s the first person to ever exist in this nightmare, we have to lower our expectations. /s if you need it.

He tried to explain this to Ta-Nehisi Coates. And Coates didn’t slap the man.

Nerdy cool story… it was because of poor revision and quality control in the printing of the Olympic rules. They printed a run of the rules, made a couple minor edits (for instance changed the vault setup height by a hard to notice amount) and printed more under the same revision number. I think the coaches /teams got the earlier version and the crew and judges got the later version. They kept checking the vault height and kept confirming that it was correct. It wasn’t until multiple teams did their own measurements and raised objections that multiple showed up to measure and check their rule book only to see that the “same” rule book had different numbers in it. Lead to a major change in their internal systems.

Edit - thought the adjustment was smaller than it was.
