Our culture has real trouble grasping that we can't bring back what it felt like to see The Prisoner/Ghostbusters/Star Wars the first time by doing them again, because the thing that made them compelling is that they were different. We can only feel that feeling again by making more new things.

Sure, OK, you say rents
are a record-high % of
average wages these days,
which is why it feels
like inflation is killing us,
but what if I told you
[Morpheus meme]
that it is possible
to abolish landlords.

For whom is this information?
I ask, as I scroll through post after post saying shit like, "One time my cousin got hit in the face with a fish at the Pier in Seattle, & that's why I'm partnering with DeutscheBank to starve toddlers in Palestine."

These days they just don't make enough talky ensemble films about how dudes wish they could retire, spend time with family, and maybe do a little fishing.
rewatching THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER which, as we all know, is a perfect movie.

A morbs jpg comes around to delight me about every three years.
Not today. I’ve got the morbs.

It works both ways, too: one can quote meanly with the expectation that a block will sunder one from seeing the opinions of whoever drove one to snark.
“immediately mute or block depending on level of rudeness” in response to aggressive quote posts is making my life much better today and I do in fact highly recommend it

Less than six months after Ricky Cobb II was fatally shot by Minnesota State Patrol, Ryan Londregan has been formally charged with three felonies, including murder.

Londregan is the first trooper in Minnesota ever charged with murder for a killing while on duty.

TIL tikkun olam is when you ensure that DJT, who has openly stated that he wants to tear up the constitution, becomes US president because… um… "Israel" stopping its ethnic cleansing of Gaza would kill the US somehow. OK

We started watching Northern Exposure (1990) and neither of us knew the reason, now we know it was to find out that David Foster Wallace stole his entire drip from this John Corbett character
