I know this is pretty much just the core concept of the entire series, but I still find it amusing that the list of characters on "The Vampire Diaries" who have had tearjerking tragic deaths followed by tearjerking miraculous resurrections is... just the cast list for the show.

To honor the passing of Dexter Wansel, here's a song I produced in Jan 1987, looping "Theme From The Planets". That beat would go on to be sampled innumerable times, but back then it was the first time many had heard it.

I know there's a thousand more important ways everything is awful right now, but in addition to all that, it also sucks that the people running this country have sucked all the fun out of its 250th anniversary celebrations before they've even started.

I've been getting some feedback on my middle-of-the-road review for The Mandalorian & Grogu, but while I respect differing opinions, I gotta say... "It's fun if you just turn off the critical part of your mind" isn't really the rousing endorsement some folks seem to think it is.

NEWS DIRECTOR: "Big news about UFOs! The government officially admitted they can't identify those objects that were flying!"

ANCHOR: "...that doesn't really seem like news, merely a re-arrangement of the same words."

NEWS DIRECTOR: "No, trust me, people will eat this up!"

I don't know who this Gerry Mander is, but I know I sure as hell didn't vote for him.

Trump compares his war in Iran to World War 2 and calls Democrats traitors: "We won’t let the Weak and Pathetic Democrats, TRAITORS ALL, belittle the accomplishments of our Military and the Trump Administration."

I'm seriously beginning to wonder if this whole thing might end with a loud noise in a small bunker.

Borman died in 2023. Anders, who took the original "Earthrise" photo, died in 2024. Jim Lovell died just seven months ago, leaving this message behind to inspire those following in his lunar footsteps and slipping the surly bonds of Earth.

[Matt Reyes @VidiotBox]

@NASA woke up the @NASAArtemis II crew today with a recorded message from Jim Lovell, most famous as the commander on the ill-fated but ultimately heroic Apollo 13 mission, who'd previously been on Apollo 8, the inspirationally successful first manned mission to orbit the Moon.

It really feels like five or six different shows going on, with different casts in different locations, with little to no awareness of anything that's going on in any of the other shows, and then some unlucky bastard is given the job of editing it all together as one series.

[Matt Reyes @VidiotBox]

This is probably just a "me" problem, but I'm watching the 2nd season of "Daredevil: Born Again" and it's a chore. Too many characters, fractured unfocused storytelling, most scenes are just two people in a room talking over *dramatic* music... it just doesn't add up to anything.

If you visited my home, I wouldn't necessarily announce what my favorite comic series is, but there would be some subtle clues.
