Anthony Mackie is one of the top actors of the MCU. The man can do anything.

Carl Lumbly always delivers a top performance, so glad they gave him a solid role.

Harrison Ford seemed to be having a lot of fun, he gave it 100%

I think every man remembers where he was and what he was doing when his wife/husband/gf/bf/SO looked up from their phone and said, "Babe, how often do YOU think about the Roman Empire?"

I think about that moment several times a week now.

Let's talk about #anarchy and why we may want some of that when we start rewriting and restructuring society, and how anarchy can be democratic.

Anarchy is, by definition, a "rule (governance) of none", as opposed to monarchy, a rule of one; plutarchy, a rule of money; or oligarchy a rule of a few.

"I can't see the fourth blockbuster Captain America movie because my car isn't charged," may SEEM like a complaint, but this is the life that I dreamed I would be living when I was fifteen years old.

I'm *not* going to say that if you get detained by ICE you should have a rubberducky disguised as a usb thumbdrive that loads ransomware in their system/network when they load it up to see what's on it.

Post a cover from your favorite @gailsimone.bsky.social comic others may not have read.

I loved Villains United and the sequel mini series is just as good. The interplay between all the characters sizzles & the plots are so unpredictable.

When I had the chance I got the author to sign issue 1!

Elon's "humour"🧵

I've read two books now on the Twitter takeover, and paid attention to the news, and something that keeps getting said is, "Elon is a funny guy, he likes to laugh."

Except he's not a funny guy. He's not funny in the sense that he is witty. He can't make jokes, he can't actually

I've read 15. Need to get around to the others.

We all grew up with stories that were warnings-- King Midas, The Emperor's New Clothes, the goose that plays the golden eggs, and those that do deals with the devil.

Why didn't enough of us listen to those stories?

The apotheosis of billionaires.

Quite apart from worshiping them, many are treating them like actual gods. On the one hand, they are infinitely powerful. They have made themselves, they exist beyond us, if they were stripped of their money they would be able through their own power to recreate it.🧵
