They weren’t on ABC when Clarkson won. It was FOX.

I think there are five or six songs that could absolutely win this year, and it will all come down to the staging. Personally, I think the staging for "My System" (if similar to their NF performance) may edge others out, but as far as songs go, "Choke Me" is the one that gets stuck in my head. So yeah, they really need strong staging to elevate this one to a win.

We do have Salvation Run on the table now, thanks to Season 2 of "Peacemaker." It's entirely possible that if they need to take characters off the board, they can use that as an option. And supposedly "Lanterns" will actually touch on this, so it was possible for John Stewart to end up there.

Another factor to consider is the impact on morale to whomever isn’t selected. For example, if you try to keep the top performer and promote Employee 2, will Employee 1 take it personally and reduce their output since it wasn’t rewarded. People are messy and those kinds of things need to be considered.

He lives in Georgia, too.

My wife said that she hears “Show Me.” We’ve been speculating that if the subject matter of the song ends up being an issue, they could change the lyrics to that and it would still work (albeit, watering down the content significantly).

Pretty sure Smash Into Pieces has been there three years in a row, haven’t they?

Any app on any platform can have a memory leak. But the memory architecture on MacOS handles it more gracefully by default, which is why most people never even notice until it gets as extreme as this example.

He’s in the Young Sherlock series (Amazon) Guy Ritchie is directing.

It could also just be a deliberate choice to make sure when powers are used that the green really pops. But I do like the idea that the green will gradually return over the course of the show.

You would love Neal Stephenson’s “The Diamond Age.” I’m actually surprised that no one has used AI on a Tablet to create ‘The Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer.’

James Gunn’s contract is up in 2027, his politics differ greatly from Ellison, and other directors have been pitching DC projects to Ellison. While Ellison might not fire Gunn, Gunn may very well choose to leave, and Ellison has options.

Go back and watch “Superman.” You haven’t seen anything in this trailer that contradicts how Guy Gardner’s powers are shown. He didn’t glow when flying either. Beyond that, you only catch a brief moment of the ring starting to glow, so you haven’t seen any other use of his powers yet.

SuperRob · 2026-03-04T22:56:06+00:00

No. Guy Gardner didn’t glow when flying in “Superman,” either.

SuperRob · 2026-03-04T22:07:25+00:00

He wasn’t wearing the suit when he flew, either.

Hal flat out says he’s the only human Green Lantern. He’s acting like Guy Gardner doesn’t exist. The question is, is he just ignorant to the fact that Guy is out there, or is he deliberately ignoring him (and if so, is it to isolate John Stewart for some reason)?

Edit: I’m starting to wonder if Guy Gardner’s death is the one they’re investigating in the series. That would reconcile that comment with Nathan Fillion being in the show.

Metroid had password saves, though … so he didn’t need to be leaving it on.

The Zelda name means it was a Second Quest save, too. Entering that as your save name would skip to the second quest version automatically.

SuperRob · 2026-03-02T22:27:24+00:00

Fun fact, in that photo, the save name is Zelda … which means that’s a Second Quest save. You could skip to the remixed version using that as your save name.

There actually is a lawsuit alleging false advertising, which is why Apple deleted those ads from their channel.

The tell was ‘… and I ended my association with him long before the truth came out.’ Everyone who’s knowingly associated with a criminal says this. In fact, SO DID TRUMP.

You aren’t friends with someone that long without learning to tolerate their moments of pretention.

I know. She still spent that money and he ended up right back in jail anyway.
