Folks, seeing The Daily Planet building in a Superman trailer is not an “Easter egg.”

Oh how my family hates when I declare "Oh, that music IS [whatever the subtitle just said it is]"
I love when the subtitles tell you what kind of mood the music is evoking.

The thing is Michael Buble didn't have to do a version of Santa Baby. He could've just... not made one. Or, he could've gone full gay version. No harm, there. But this "Santa Pally" crap? Come on man

I don’t appreciate a song starting with the insinuation that I know all the underground reindeer but not the most famous one of all time like I’m some kind of hoofed animal hipster

The good thing about Steven Seagal movies is that you can just turn off the shit and watch something else.

What are Republicans trying to hide?
Why are Republicans trying so hard to protect an alleged sexual predator?
(And why aren't Democrats screaming either or both questions every time they're in earshot of a reporter or on TV?)

The House voted 204-198 to block release of the Gaetz ethics report. All Dems present voted to release, along with Republican Tom McClintock of CA. Every other Republican present voted to keep Gaetz's violations covered up.
Again, Gaetz is accused of sex trafficking and statutory rape.

Maybe DOGE is planning to pitch single payer?
Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

I'm listening to a sexy-singer-de-jour's take on "Santa Baby" and remembering what @samsuper.bsky.social once pointed out to me: the whole song is bonkers, yes, but asking for a *platinum mine* is really over the top. I mean come on.
