Executive dysfunction, a conspicuous lack of marketable skills, and a paradoxical ambition to build a better society from the ground up.
As certain as Will is that this is true, I'm equally certain that it's not, and I don't think either of us has anything to go off of, other than, "That's the impression that I get."

Yes, definitely. When there's an aspiring dictator in the White House, the first thing you want to do is establish the precedent that you can just dissolve the entire Congress. Very well thought out.

This topic seems to come up periodically on various platforms, and while I can't speak for anyone else, I suspect it thrives on a basic misunderstanding. Not liking it and not doing it are two different things. I don't think anyone is saying "no small talk ever," so much as "not ONLY small talk."

Just watched: The X-Files ep. 704 - Millennium
I don't think I saw this episode in the original run, which is a damn shame because it blends together ritual magic, a zombie plague, and Christian eschatology. It's like it was written specifically to suit my interests when I was 14 years old.

Don't worry, I'm sure there are no credulous judges who would deem an AI trustworthy and allow it to influence their decisions from the bench.

Bird on a Wire is once of those movies that has a special place in my heart just because it was constantly on basic cable when I was a kid, after falling theatrically.
Burnt Offerings is one of the best haunted house movies and also one of the bleakest, and I might rewatch it today.

Well trick or treat to me! My order from the @kinolorber.com fall sale happened to arrive on Halloween. A bit of a departure from my usually constrained spending habits, as I've only seen two of these. But I haven't gotten new physical media in a while & I feel duty-bound to support boutique labels.

Did you see their follow-up? The total collapse of Western civilization is, for these people, preferable to a third of the country saying they'd like to be able to enjoy Sunday mornings in a politically stable country.
