This is like Common Side Effects but with cat ladies.
If you listened to last week’s @hyperfixedpod.bsky.social about a black market for life saving drugs for cats—this second episode has been very hard to make because we keep getting crazy new details for this story. Couldn’t be more excited for the second episode, but you can hear the first here:

Aside from the mediocre storytelling, I found all the films here just deeply uninteresting. Sure you can convincingly reproduce reality but it lacks what makes that depiction interesting.

My senator is out here posting about dirty bathrooms while bombs are falling.
Visitors to Colorado’s iconic Maroon Bells should be enjoying the splendor of their public lands, not worrying about where they will go to the bathroom or dealing with human waste.

Not sure exactly what to call it but certain pieces of art are “inspirational” in that each time you experience it you come away wanting to make something, often totally unrelated.
This album does that for me each time I come back to it.

Cameron Winter solo album is solid all the way through. Restrained instrumentation lets his strong writing and distinct vocal style really shine. Wonderful compliment to his work with Geese.

You could argue that both Black Mirror and Star Trek (and lots of other things, especially Vonnegut books) have fundamentally the same relationship with technology which is that the danger of technology is that it outpaces the progression of human morality and decency and consumes us (the Borg)
Saw lots of lazy dunking on this guy, which fair, because he's obviously racist and dumb.

But also this exists! It's called Star Trek. It's very popular!
