That's "globalizing the intifada" for ya.

...and last night 2 Jewish-Israeli professionals were murdered in cold blood outside a Jewish museum by someone yelling "Free Free Palestine".

These things are all connected. This is globalizing the Intifada. Open your eyes.

Your Jewish Friends' lives depend on it. [2/2]

YES! I always found "I'd never change a thing" to be disingenuous. Of course I'd change some things if I could make certain choices again. That doesn't mean I regret my entire life.

I always like to say to people, imagine if we judged Natalie Portman's worth as an actress on her line-readings in "Revenge of the Sith". Gems like "No, it's because I'M so in love with YOU".

Did she have chemistry with Hayden? Nope. But I don't know if anyone could have saved that...

Eh, I still think the writing gets the bulk of the blame. I think the prequels had a solid story - the bullet points on the rise of fascism was there, but unlike the OT, Lucas didn't let anyone help with the screenplays, too many "yes men". Too bad he didn't get Carrie as a scriptdoctor...

I miss your real-time commentary. Glad you are still doing it here. It's a good distraction from *gestures to everything*

Anyone else have a feeling that he just watched "The Rock" and was like YESSSSSSSSS

Yeah I was hoping to avoid spoilers, but I also wanted to exist on the internet, so I was about 99.95% sure about that one. Grateful this wasn't, say, the White Lotus and it happened in episode 2....

Is this season good? I haven't mustered up the energy to remind myself what went down last season and contemplate if I want to start up again...

Very strange...

It's very good: weird, beautiful, and very intense at times. Carrie Coon is spectacular.

Once the multiverse became a thing, and all the stakes disappeared, I kinda stopped caring. I think the writing of Wanda on Dr. Strange 2 kinda killed any optimism I had that they could keep any sense of cohesion in the franchise.

I don't think it's true that there's no good Americans, but at the same time, anyone who feels the need to declare they're one of the "good ones" almost definitely isn't.

My daughter *literally* just did a unit on this in school!

We upgraded to an entire (but still very small) drawer in the kitchen....
