Of course. The one year I actually felt inspired to take part in NaNoWriMo—two weeks late but who’s counting?—is the year the whole thing shut down thanks to AI.

Thanks a lot, assholes.

For Veteran’s Day, here’s an old newspaper clipping from 1996 of my granddad (a WWII vet) talking about his dad (a WWI vet)

Really sit down and ask yourselves if you think the people scrolling Instagram reels are even going to notice.

It never mattered before and it sure as hell won't matter any more now.

Fuck it, just have the next movie start like this

Ranking the Alien/Predator series since now it's apparently all the same franchise anyway.

Not pictured is AVP: Requiem, partly because I couldn't fit it into the format, but also because it belongs in a dumpster anyways.

Watched the John Candy doc tonight, and there's a bit where Macaulay Culkin admits to being older now than Candy was when he died.

Which is really no surprise, he's done the whole "I'm over 40, how old do you feel now?" shit for a few years now.

But even so, it's just nice to see Mac as an adult.

It’s time for Barnes & Noble’s annual November Criterion sale.

Or as my family always calls it “No, we bought your Christmas gifts months ago”

New thread for all the reasons I’m mad at my local classic rock station:

1) Green Day’s “Brain Stew” is 30 years old now. Apparently it’s classic enough to be on classic rock radio, but NOT classic rock enough to lead into “Jaded” like literally every other time it’s ever been on the radio.

A quick perusal of my leftover Halloween candy bowl tells me not a single child wanted the individually wrapped Kitkats.

Smart kids.

Netflix bungled the release of GdT’s Frankenstein for a couple reasons, but the one no one seems to be talking about is RELEASING IT AFTER HALLOWEEN

Like… that’s just such an obvious move that would guarantee millions of views or whatever. But no. Middle of November is good enough.

I feel attacked as someone who just got a call from his pizza delivery driver, who thought he was at my house, but turned out to be FORTY BLOCKS AWAY.
