the Bay having as many 3-star Michelin restos than NYC and LA combined is a statement about obscene wealth, not a statement about general food quality

I don’t think mainstream Dems understand just how incredibly enraged normie liberal voters are by the My Good Republican Colleagues bit and how central it is to their alienation. It’s another substanceless thing the establishment is willing to burn tons of political capital on.

Carrie adaptations will never have a fat actress cause producers/directors are convinced that people won’t sympathize with a fat female character so viewership will drop and considering our current rejection of body positivity and our celebs becoming skeletal it’s unsurprising.

incredibile come nonostante i numerosi adattamenti nessuno abbia ancora mai avuto il coraggio di rappresentare fisicamente carrie esattamente come viene descritta nel libro

Sam Neill (2025): “It’s not a happy place, America, and I wasn’t happy there. I’m interested in the condition of America now. It beggars belief what’s happening there now. When you hear a slogan like Make America Great Again, it makes a sort of weird sense because America could be great again, but at community level. Not with sort of strange billionaires making weird decisions”

his portrayal in possession of a mentally deteriorating, domestically abusive spy in west germany cucked by a monster symbolizing capitalism’s psychosexual fears of eastern communist collectivity was a more accurate portrait of Bond in real life so we weren’t robbed at all imho

We're still in a lull.

But the next wave here is only a mutation away.

It's already arrived in China.

Absolutely. These companies are gonna make sure THEIR workforce is vaccinated, that THEIR workforce has PTO (we even have COVID time off separate from PTO), that THEIR workforce is masking, that THEIR workforce is made of the best and brightest scientific minds.

Thats it.

Stock buybacks were considered illegal market manipulation. That is until, you guessed it, Ronald Reagan.

China crashing the blood diamond industry is such a great story, really brings a tear to my eye

[Pat Dennis @patdennis]

those interest rates are staying up because Trump exploded the deficit giving tax cuts to billionaires and damaged the economy with tariffs and war

[g. @GeauxGabrielle]

Thats the future. A decentralized public health infrastructure. I keep telling yall: PRIVATE industry is hiring TEAMS of epidemiologists. And paying us all handsomely. These companies care about THEIR reputations not the public good. And corporations absolutely still believe in science.

This new Burning Man documentary series is hilarious. It’s just people being like “we started this whole thing to do ketamine in the desert and now we have to do ketamine in the desert with Jason Calcanis”

Ochocinco breaking down the athletic failures of a 65 year old man who was trucked by a bison. No other website like it

[union enjoyer @PeterLyngso]

This is the beginning of a government crackdown on the militant wing of the labor movement

We’ve seen this before with the framing and expulsion of Ron Carey from the Teamsters after the 1997 UPS strike

Everyone needs to back the UAW to the hilt. We need Shawn Fain right now

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

Fain being rat fucked over UAW’s opposition to genocide in Gaza is the most obvious thing ever and it’s good to see him openly discuss it

RIP Sam Neill (1947-2026)

Sam Neill on why "The Piano" (1993) is an important movie in Cinema history:

"I don’t think I can overestimate how important 'The Piano' (1993) is for me in hindsight. It sits on my funny old CV like a medal on my chest. It wasn’t my film. It was Jane Campion's. I wasn’t the star of the film. That was Holly Hunter. But there is honour to be found in the second fiddle. Or fourth. No one notices you much, you don’t get nominated for things. But you served. I was there in an important feminist film. I was there on the front line in an important New Zealand film. Neither of these labels does the film justice. It’s a work of art. And look, that tiny little figure in the fabric— see down there on the right—that’s me. It’s a film that will always have a place in cinema history. And I served in it."

A tourist was seriously injured after a bison tossed a car into a bus shelter. I can't believe more people aren't talking about this.
