I’m here now. Don’t want to add any value (even the tiny amount I generate) to the old bird site under its present management.

Remember: if it's white smoke coming from Dodgers stadium, a run has been scored. If it's black smoke, we play another inning.

Nobody remembers why this game began, all those generations ago. Such details are long lost to history. All we know is that the game must be played

Americans want to watch charismatic people solve moderately difficult problems on a weekly basis. That’s it. And a group of fomo execs and techbros who don’t watch TV drove one of the most profitable industries in the US off a cliff rather than accept that.
Look what happenes when a TV show releases every year, with more than 8 episodes a season.

Sad to hear about the passing of the Michelangelo of Movie posters, RENATO CASARO. The Man painted so many iconic posters, specially in the 70s/80s: CONAN, TERMINATOR, DUNE, TOTAL RECALL, DANCE WITH THE WOLVES, BLOW OUT, FLASH GORDON, RAMBO, NEVER-ENDING STORY, and the list goes on and on. 1/2

So we've had two white male Marine veterans commit mass shootings this weekend in Michigan and North Carolina leaving at least 4 dead and a church burned down.
I'm sure MAGA will declare it an epidemic and push to ban white male Marine veterans from owning guns any day now.

“Fascism” isn’t a slur for politics we don’t like. It’s a precise word with precise meaning. And in the face of what’s happening right now in America, it’s the most honest one we have.

I met Jeff in the few years he was living in LA trying to do the Hollywood thing. He is one of the most genuine, funny, talented, sincere, kind and great people I have ever met. Kinda knowing him personally will benefit my career in no way possible, I'm just so happy for his very deserved success.
Jeff Hiller, recognized for his role on “Somebody Somewhere,” was one of the night’s most surprising Emmy winners. His moving speech invoked the earnest warmth that made his show so special, Paula Mejía writes:
The Delight of a Surprise Emmys Win
The night’s most moving speech captured the hard slog of being a working actor.

So glad that Jeff Hiller won the Emmy for his brilliant performance in the criminally underseen & under appreciated SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE. That is all.

As a kid that grew up in the suburbs where there wasn’t a lot of diversity, it was the X-Men cartoon that really helped teach me about man’s inhumanity to man, and the X-Men’s fight for equality. Reading this really sums up why you’re such a great fit on Uncanny X-Men right now. You get it.
