I've heard him go to bat for actors, but at the same time I know he's had issues with crews before. There's stuff about that all over the Aliens DVD extras.

Then again, that was all a very long time ago.

He's probably buying into his own auteur myth. I kind of see how that might happen in a world where directors are given so much credit. Maybe he's come to believe that all of all those collaborators who helped him make his blockbuster James Cameron movies were all just 'tools'.

Yeah, I think a lot of boomers have that 'I got mine' attitude and the 'AI is just a tool' mantra is just another manifestation of that. Gaiman was saying the same shit right before... y'know. I think those saying it tend to be accutely aware that it won't hurt their livelihoods at all.

For context, I'm white and I look shifty as fuck, but I've never been bothered by black security, whereas what I described above happens all the time, particularly to the black women in my friend group. It's one consistent example I've seen of members of an oppressed group upholding white supremacy.

I frequently attend events where I've been allowed to come and go without displaying the necessary badge by the same black security guards who have immediately gone on to harrass my black friends who are prominently displaying their badges. It happens all the time at various conventions.

I've been trying to get rid of it for at least five years, because I don't like paying a monthly fee for a program that gets worse with every update, but I still need it for the 10% of what I do where its virtually irreplaceable and for clients who insist on receiving the work in Adobe file formats.

When I left that job, I gifted everyone who worked there a copy of that document and they were all very appreciative.

Nah, like most mall cops, he was a power-tripping thug. He threatened me more than once starting the day I met him. I eventually got my back by following him around writing a detailed account of his ridiculous behaviour and then pinning it to the wall next to where he ate lunch every day.

Truth. I used to work with this one Mall Cop who was given the title of 'Store Detective' and immediately let that go to his head. I once saw him sneaking around Borders in stealth mode while the store sound system played the James Bond theme tune. God I wish my phone had a video camera back then...

British food being bad is an outdated concept. Hipsters fixed it. Its not like Denver, they've learned to season and everything.

London is legitimately one of the best food cities I've been to, both for variety and baseline quality.

How many Cybertruck recalls are there going to be before I stop seeing these twats everywhere?

Are we finally getting 'Columbo is a Mass Murderer'?

Me neither, but it seemed smart, right?

Did you buy in a tax advantaged account like a Roth IRA? You can invest up to 7k a year and you can withdraw that initial investment without a penalty.

Or so I hear, from my actually smart wife (who actually understands money).

Ah... well...

Same question for the other gameshow then!
March 21, 2025 at 6:25 PM
I always wondered about this, I know you won, but am I right in thinking they edited it so that someone else won the game? Am I misremembering?

If so, did you both get paid, or is someone else out there telling people that they didn't go home with the money that the TV told people they got?

Glad you noticed. I stuck as close to the photo reference as possible.

Even the best teacher I ever had in school was terrible about comics. The older I get, the more ignorant that seems to me. Even in their simplest forms, comics encourage literacy.
