no billionaires

no algorithms

Enough new folks here that it’s time for a pinned intro:

I like to post about David Lynch movies, Alan Moore comics, AEW, Columbo, video games that everybody finished years ago, 90s sketch comedy, and collectible screenprints.

I don’t like to talk about politics, but I seem to do it a whole lot.

rewatched first Avengers for the first time in a long time and that movie really is a (no pun intended) marvel—takes big swings and sticks the landing in a way it’s easy to take for granted here on the tail end of the glut

Cartoon Network carried this torch in the late 90s/early 00s. There’s a Billy & Mandy ep that’s just a riff on God Emperor of Dune

"Luddites" is a good term for those who oppose AI because the Luddites weren't against *all* technology, just forms of technology that they knew would pay workers less and turn out a shittier product

i know we're all (deservedly) dogging The Bulwark for that campus protest piece (and that dishonest Mona Charen hit piece on Piker), but also worth highlighting Will Sommer's newsletter "False Flag," which has some of my favorite reporting on the wilder parts of RW media

i'm never the best at remembering specific segments, but has Kenny Omega ever cut an AEW promo on the level of the one he did last night? 🤼

As I've said before, just because Freddy and Jason are fighting, it doesn't mean it's suddenly safe to be a camper, you know?

Happy 36th birthday to the Twin Peaks Pilot, which is every bit as magical, mysterious and compelling as the day it first aired 🎂🙌

hmm, why would BAD NEWS BEARS and ROCKY--the two seminal "we lost, but really? we won" sports movies--resonate so strongly in 1976 America

You must learn to hate the aristocracy as much as it hates you. It changes shape, tosses aside old husks like "divine right of kings" and "bloodlines" and slides right into slick new shells like "meritocracy".

to distract myself with wrestling for a moment: Punk's promo last night was clearly rubber-stamped by all involved and a cover for dropping ticket prices on an event they're struggling to sell

but

I find his use of "MAGAfee" as an insult on WWE tv to be a significant cultural windsock
