Saying this as if last of us 2 wasn't explicitly about "religious" murder cults is pretty wild...

WOW emilia perez is a bad movie. Genuinely at a loss for words.

Just incredible really. Who is supposed to accomplish these ideas if it's not literally the president.
In his farewell address, Biden calls for:

An end to dark money

18 year term limit on Supreme Court Justices and ethics reform

A ban on stock trading in Congress

Amending the Constitution to say no president is immune from crimes committed in office

Years ago there were two routes I could take to a school I was teaching lessons at, either the interstate or back roads, and one time I took the back roads but saw news reports later of some random dude firing an assault rifle at random cars on the interstate that exact time I would've been driving.
CNN: “There is a real sense of nervousness and even fear in C-suites across the country.”

We've reached the apex of the effects driven media model here re: video game violence.

This is like saying the killer trained in Mario by stomping goombas or planned his disguise in the sims, what are we even doing here.

Just watched the metaphor refantazio documentary and yes it's cool but my main takeaway is the buddhist monk chanting on the soundtrack has an experimental jazz group and I would buy like a dozen albums of this right now if I could

I've been thinking about this a bit more, and the fact Musk is talking about *merch* of all things - not policies, not objectives, but merch - is the most vivid evidence yet of how these guys see what they're doing as a self-enriching grift. Not as something to do to help people.
Elon Musk posted:

“Department of Government Efficiency
The merch will be 🔥🔥🔥”

(Yes, this is real.)

Just heard a news anchor describe this election as historic either way because on the one hand harris would be the first woman president and on the other trump would be the first president elected after a criminal conviction and honestly how do you say that with a straight face

Hard to believe I've happened to be close enough to catch two of these in my life. Pretty sure that makes me an eclipse chaser now. Clouds lightened up literally less than an hour before totality.

I don't know if it will be good, but the trailer for the new Indiana Jones game matching those three big hits in the theme to him punching a Nazi in the face repeatedly is some quality audiovisual synchronization.
