I saw someone suggesting a BC Ferries Knives Out

Casting Jacob Elordi in Wuthering Heights is disgusting erasure that totally messes with the character and some of the story’s key themes.

Brontë is perfectly clear in describing Heathcliff at the beginning of the novel. He should look like this:

If I had a dime for every time #cosplayers kissed in front of my camera at #HalCon2025 I’d have two dimes! That’s not a lot but it’s kinda awesome that it happened twice!

Remember when your grandparents had really weird hates on for old timey famous people

You're watching TV and it'll mention old cowboy movies and gramps will say 'William S. Hart was an asshole"?

That will be me in 20 years with Mark Wahlberg

It is surprising to me that none of the major platforms have actual _parental control_ features so that we can limit the amount of time that our parents can spend online, and which apps they’re allowed to use. I don’t worry about my teenager’s use of the internet at all, just my octogenarian dad’s.

This is an IMMENSE amount of gear to use
That’s about one-third of the total number of TLAMs the Navy was able to procure in 2024, by the way.
Reuters reporting it was over a dozen Tomahawks

You can't cast Nick Cage as ANYONE ELSE, because he is incapable of being anyone but Nick Cage. That's why you cast him. Because you want Nick Cage in your movie.

Revenue Canada refused to accept the legal documents from my divorce.

They wanted a hydro bill from x month, a phone bill from y month, and rental payments for various months.
ICE saying that birth certificates, state ids like driver’s licenses, and U.S. issued ids are not not sufficient evidence of citizenship seems like a major question to me.
So the new admin policy is, apparently, if we don’t think you are a “citizen” because of your race or ethnicity, we claim your birth certificate is a fraud and deport you any way, even if a judge says “don’t you dare.” It’s Obama birtherism writ large.

This is not specific to ICE JSYK. When my mother was evicted from our old family home, they helped themselves to our things too. And I hear of people who, when they are taken into police custody, have their personal possessions (ordinary, non-problematic items) lifted from them out of greed.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

This is wrong, and this is abuse.

I know people don't see it as such, they see it as a prank with no harm, but you're using someone's medical condition to fuck with them, and that's not okay.

When people with dementia have to be redirected, sometimes with fibs, that is different.
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction
