wow TMDB is way faster than IMDB, give it a try.

It's kind of annoying how major websites these days are still slow (or even slower than they used to be)

this is so deeply upsetting

I was just as shocked with the news about the route 2 bus only lane as you. We are working on it. We need to prioritize pedestrian safety and not go backwards on our transit investments.

as the Trump administration begins stepping on limitless rakes, in 2026 and 2028 we need to resist the urge to back candidates whose promise is entirely to “stop trump” and encourage those who promise and articulate a better future for America, in summary: no scrubs

this is what long-time Elon watchers call "The Realization": when Elon stumbles into your area of expertise, and you realize everyone just gives the guy the benefit of the doubt because he talks about complicated things people don't pay attention to
