I contain multitudes.
The trickle of news about Rob Reiner and his wife is horrifying. Nothing confirmed, as it's coming out in batches and such, but TW for violence.

This looks horrendous.

2025 can't end soon enough.

While I'm happy to see her get cancelled like this, I can't tell what part grooming by older men played in her life - let alone possible mental health issues. I just don't know.

That said: Lizza and RFK need to get their asses kicked as well.

Oh yes. This looks very good.

The Boys adaptation is the rare "better than the source material" and it shows.

The attacks on trans rights, which are basic human rights, are a terrible injustice and an attack on truth and fact as well. Everyone should be deeply alarmed and it should be disqualifying for a politician to support such discrimination.

I hate myself quite a bit for reading these, and yet... I continue.

These are all horrible, horrible people.

Now I know why Star Wars is all over my timeline.

Decent list, Governor.
haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

“The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole.” ~ NASAUniverse

Alan Moore: "The Nazis didn't come from Mars, they weren't monsters such as the world had never seen; they were street sweepers and factory hands and bakers and butchers. But when someone in uniform told them to, they went out and killed six million human beings. And the same would have happened..."

The Heritage Foundation Project 2025 page is no longer on its website. It was not easy to locate as Google fed me a bunch of links to buy the book from Amazon instead. It's here under a new link. Download it for free before the history revisionists start messing with it, if they haven't already.

Random question for you: Do you know when you and EB will be returning to Reckless? I love Criminal, but I'm jonesing for more of Ethan.

As of late, I've started to wonder if I'll last on BS. The more I learn about BS leadership, the more I think they're going to disappoint us all. Too many posts about transphobia et al have caught my eye.

For now, I'm here and listening.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

I don't know if you'll see this, but I love Absolute Superman.

Best Supes I've read in years. Thanks for all your hard work.
