Bond needs continuity like a woman needs a man, or a fish needs a bicycle.
Bond needs continuity like a woman needs a man, or a fish needs a bicycle.
Since apparently there is James Bond discourse, here’s the simplest way to get out this self-imposed “how do we unkill Bond” mess.
YOU DON’T *NEED* CONTINUITY, FFS
Keep the same actors for M, Moneypenny, Q, Leiter, and Lashana Lynch as 008 or whatever number.
New Bond.
Set it in the 60s.
EASY.

Musk has proven time and again that he can't handle a world - imagined or real - where everyone has a voice.
Given how thin-skinned he was about Twitter, I'm not surprised he's terrified of the concept of a trans woman elf ranger.
Because Lathander forbid we pretend to be empowered in any realm.

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

“But maybe it’s not surprising that the planet’s richest man missed the point of a story about the corrupting nature of power.”

Feeling spicy might delete but I used to work with Chuck Schumer's eldest daughter, and when she was getting ready to go to Yale Law she was dissatisfied with her financial aid package so she made them do a three way call (at the office) with her and her dad to push for a better package

Overheard, from a white guy with green dreadlocks in a manbun who is a CEO: "I'm like super into Krishna, but not like religiously, I don't think he's the next coming of Jesus, but he's got a peacock thing going on so we have a peacock theme for the company, so anyway I'll send you my pitchdeck?"

I don’t know about you but I sincerely believe that Zohran Mamdani’s BA Major in Africana Studies enabled him to understand our current conjuncture & its demands of justice. Humanities shape minds & in his case for the better.

I love trying something new and being kinda bad at it, but seeing the potential to get kinda good at it.
Also pottery is generally always humbling me. A whole batch of small dishes i made over the summer came out cracked. Flat! But cracked. And I teach other people!!

Being an artist is being humble over and over. Not even in a bad way of being "humiliated" but trying something new, trying to grow, is accepting you aren't where you need to be. Accepting making "ugly" failed attempts. But it is sort of freeing.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
