Finally watched Jurassic World: Dominion a couple weeks ago which meant I could listen to one of my two remaining @disastergirls.bsky.social podcasts. As usual, they were a delight. I miss this podcast. And as an added bonus, @amandasmith.bsky.social read my review at the end of the pod! So cool!

related to this a lot of people in the pundit class need to learn how to just be annoyed by someone or something without turning it into What’s Wrong With America
i am fascinated by how nate silver turns everything he doesn’t like into a bespoke ideology. it’s not that he is annoyed by HCR, it is that she is a dreaded “ism” responsible for everything he doesn’t like about the democratic party. same with bluesky.
what the fuck are you talking about man

Mulholland Drive. On one side, a clear view to Catalina Island. On the other, a clear view over the Valley to the snow capped mountains beyond.

I’ve said this before, but they should make a series of stand alone movies each with a different Bond. Have some interesting casting. Old Pierce Brosnan, a woman, a woman of color, Riz Ahmed, Idris Elba. Hire different directors. But the villain should be a lightly fictionalized version of Elon Musk
this is so silly. people know the deal with bond. the writers should just embrace the metatextual aspects of the franchise
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."
