Ok, I enjoyed #MissionImpossibleTheFinalReckoning , but has Ethan Hunt ever reversed a classic car off a cliff, while being pursued by a dragon?
That’s what you get in Defence of the Realm….

At the end of Avengers #375 (June '95) Black Knight and Sersi journey through a portal opened by a dying watcher to a world where Sersi will be cured of the supernatural madness that threatens to take over her mind. That world happens to be the Ultraverse. Ultraforce # 8 picks up the story.

Re screenwriting, I have the same concerns about going over for general and pitch meetings. Never a problem in the past. Looks like a real problem now.
All folks who speak at conferences should read this and think long and hard about whether they want to risk speak in the US in the future.
Also anyone who works while traveling.

Watched ‘The Eternals’ again. I’ve decided it really is a good movie with some incredible action sequences, though maybe I prefer to think of it as out of our MCU continuity. The whole Harry Styles stunt casting was completely gratuitous though. Now, give me some Black Knight, dammit! 😡

bathroom bills were considered a hugely bigoted overreach a decade ago and the backsliding on trans rights is the result of a sustained propaganda campaign by elites
the pendulum can swing back the other way if you try, and anyone who is not willing to do so is showcasing their own bigotry

the thing about “democrats should take popular cultural positions” is that what constitutes popular is a function of an interaction between the public and elites. if a faction of elites start screaming about a vulnerable minority and another faction says they have a point, this shapes the public.
In a leaked recording, State Senator Elena Parent (D-42) said she’d vote for Republican transgender healthcare bans because trans rights are too “unpopular."

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

It's not about public opinion. When was that last time Google did something popular? No, it's just about making trump happy so they can get tax cuts and kickbacks. It's a show specifically for him and no one else.

Any live event should be on your linear channels in preference to repeats, and certainly in preference to mirroring one of your other linear channels. It's not like BBC Two viewers who don't like snooker would be bereft, since One offers a near-identical mix of light factual and quizzes.
