Probably not too impressed with Captain VonTrapp failing to take command of his boat in The Sound of Music as well.
Fox News is mad that Jack Nicholson's character was portrayed as the bad guy in "A Few Good Men," citing it as the start of the downfall of "masculinity" in America.
"They villified him! Right there's where Hollywood started this."
"Now there's too few good men! That's the problem!"

He had a joke in his stump speeches about how, if he were to walk on water, the headlines the next day would read “Jesse Jackson Can’t Swim”
How many of the media outlets eulogizing Rev. Jesse Jackson today spent decades trying to undermine his work & turn him into a punchline?

I see Springsteen has named his new tour 'No Kings'.
And still there'll be lads in the comments telling him to ditch the politics.

I'm guessing Irish America will most likely just want ICE agents to be issued with one of these cards.
Otherwise 'meh'.

At Whipple where expired dicks are being thrown at ICE vehicles and those believed to be agitators. The area has been a place of protest since thousands of federal agents arrived in the city.

One of the easiest ways to shoot down the idea that "AI" is an expert is to show how it deals with something people know about.
Younger readers may not get this as most appliances come pre-wired, but anyone 35+ can see these are chaotic fire hazards.
From Mastodon, AI asked how to wire a plug:

OK, first, the good news is that this was, with no exaggeration, just the most fun my entire family has had watching the telly together in an unmeasurable amount of time.
Also, a fully rat-danced rendition of Blinded By The Lights was something I never knew I needed.

‘The show delivers fulsomely, and it probably delivers even more if you’re not watching through the same lens as me (completely freaking out that if they mess this up, then I can kiss The Muppet Show goodbye for another 45 years).’
They let me review the new Muppets Show special-slash-pilot.

It’s crazy how for 30 years, Disney has been trying to do something with the Muppets that clicks, and they finally realized “Hey, what if we just did The Muppet Show?” They really should just do one of these quarterly, surprise drop them, and make everyone happy.

'So you want me to carry Patrick Magee, who weighs 17Olbs, plus the wheelchair, another 30lbs, so 200lbs, down the stairs & then do a dialogue scene?'
'Yeah, you can do it.'
