Silicon Valley essentially tricked a bunch of boomers who think computers are magic into dumping billions of dollars into innovations that are largely worthless parlor tricks. Now the boomers have to help them prop up the house of cards or go broke and admit that they were conned.

If you can’t do your job in the hours they’re paying you they’re either taking advantage of you or you’re bad at your job. A lot of people who are bad at their jobs mask that by claiming it’s dedication instead on ineptitude.

It is tragic that this person was put in a position where she lost her life for no reason other than to serve the vanity of a man determined to establish dominance over a city that hates him

National Guard member killed in D.C. shooting remembered for 'heart of gold'
The slain soldier’s former boyfriend recalled her empathy and generosity. “She doesn’t even have to know you and she’ll do anything for you,” he said.

And it was excellent, at that. I hope I get tired of Benoit Blanc long before Johnson and Craig get tired of making them because they’re such an absolute delight.

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

So this is a simplistic, binary, and altogether poor way to approach film analysis. Films aren’t good/bad, they do certain things well and certain things poorly. Rarely will you find a film or any art that does everything right. It’s just degrees of how well some things were accomplished.
i know this will shock a lot of you but movies can actually be bad. like, not bad as in "oh i don't this character's choices or this vibe isn't for me" but bad in "there is no logical connection between the scenes i'm being presented with"

Sci-fi content tends to show us one or two futures. Either the world is ruined by technology & humans are scraping by or the world is saved by technology & humans live lives of ease.

It's great that Birmingham owners want to build a modern stadium to match the size of their ambitions for the club. City should be huge.
But it's a shame it looks like an upturned coffee table or a beetle that's stuck on its back.

Everyone is making a jerk off motion to this right now, but I see this as a big win.
Twenty years ago this vote woulda been nearly unanimous. That 98 Democrats felt safe enough to vote no is a huge sign of the change in the public perception of socialism.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.

Trump is gonna pocket veto the Epstein Bill imo. He has 10 days to sign it (not counting Sundays) before it becomes law as long as Congress is in session. If Congress isn’t in session, then it essentially means it’s vetoed. Johnson will gavel the session for the holidays and give Trump his out.

I think a major problem with the country’s collective “capitalism brain” is that so much is made about “efficiency” and not much is made about quality. I don’t really care how efficient a business is run. I care about the quality of the product or service they provide.

Grant was president during the centennial, Coolidge during the sesquicentennial, and Ford during the bicentennial.
It probably says more about the general mediocrity of the presidency than anything else, but all of them were fairly unpopular and/or scandal ridden at the time, so it's a pattern.
