Burke Magnus sounds like a name right out of the NXT name generator.

I mean... the architect knows he's going to get stiffed on this project in the end, right?
Trump’s size obsession has put him at odds with the architect, who reportedly argues the 90,000 sq. ft. ballroom would overshadow the 55,000 sq. ft. White House, violating basic architectural principles.

It's, ultimately, another illustration of the crumbling checks and balances. trib.al/tAhurYp

James Bond supervillains threaten to blow up the world with their big laser unless you pay them a trillion dollars.

Real American supervillains embed themselves in the economy and threaten to cause a depression unless you subsidize their sex robots and the weird chatbots they use to avoid humans.

Go see Rental Family whenever you can. It just ran my emotions through a ringer, and it’s going to be sitting with me for a long time.

This would be mine as well. It’s such a warm hug of a movie from Joe Dante. John Goodman is fantastic in it, and his speech about the theatrical experience gets me every time.

You’re going to need a bigger boat, Charlie Brown.
Forget it, Charlie Brown. It's Chinatown.
What do we say to the God of Death, Charlie Brown?

Waiting to see the paperwork, but a few things:
-- Trump's numbers are not great in Alabama;
-- Straight-ticket voting is a D killer, even when they have a cash advantage (as Jones did in 2020);
-- But this will be a relief to legislative Democrats to have a top-of-the-ticket name to draw voters.

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Raise a glass to Bill Watterson, wherever he is and whatever he’s doing. Not only did he give us the genius of Calvin and Hobbes, he has kept it evergreen by steadfastly refusing to monetize it.

The university closed spaces for Black and LGBTQ+ students rather than fight a state law that made it all but illegal to make campuses welcoming places in Alabama. But yes, conservatives are being stifled.
University of Alabama attorneys claim minority-focused spaces could be 'unlawful segregation' | Alabama Reflector
Attorneys for the University of Alabama claim reopening student spaces for minorities might be "unlawful segregation" following new federal guidance.

Yes, the university that let President Donald Trump speak while saying nothing about a UA graduate student suffering in a Louisiana prison for his policies is stifling conservatives.

Batman '89 is the first movie I was "fully aware of" in the sense of marketing and a movie as a major event/spectacle.

Batman (Tim Burton, 1989) | Movie Review — Cinema Daze
“Batman” is the film that made me understand and ultimately appreciate just what a summer blockbuster should be - a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of the 1989 Tim Burton comic book film.
