Everybody who has tried to remake, knockoff or sequelize the ideal dark low fantasy film...Conan the Barbarian (1982)...has either been too cheap and silly (Red Sonja, Deathstalker, too many to count really) or tried to make a heavy, auteur Oscar-bait film like The Northman or The Green Knight.

I like The Lord of the Rings a lot but we need more bite sized swords and sorcery fantasy TV/movies. Willow is the platonic ideal of lightweight high fantasy, and Dungeons and Dragons (2023) is its spiritual successor. But overall the field seems very thin 🫤

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Qanon was a brilliant op because they got millions of conspiracy-brained reactionaries from Alex Jones to that guy who yells about fluoride at every town hall to become PRO Black Van.

Illinois law requires all registered vehicles to display front and back license plates, without exception. But to evade accountability, masked federal immigration agents are driving around in unmarked cars without plates.

Federal immigration officers wear masks, no name tags — now some drive cars without license plates

The Sun-Times has documented four unmarked cars carrying federal officers without required plates, offering another way to shield their identities. Federal officials say they’re meeting regulations.

Baron gets a nepoxecutive gig I'm declaring here and now that will officially end the broad gentleman's agreement that he's spared the mass dunking we reserve for his older cryptofash cokehead siblings.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Restricting replies and quotes rules. Dispense with the notion that everything you write needs a comment section and peer review. They can repost, like, block, mute or move on.

I write about the lack of third spaces often. This habit of thinking that a single post must provide an exhaustive accounting of every factor leading to a multifaceted problem — and then attacking people if it doesn’t — is why people find this place exhausting.

Ranryu @ranryu.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, it's definitely that and not the lack of third spaces. You are so smart

It wasn't THAT long ago that a chief complaint about the media was it would send news vans and choppers to sensationalize every car chase or house fire. Now that all gets farmed out to social media and racist trolls regurgitating decade-old Knockout Game vids.

It simply should not be possible for the president to repeatedly claim that a major city is burning without a wall of live standups happening in that city clearly demonstrating that it is not

American broadcast journalism has utterly failed and is a dead industry, there's nothing left worth saving

Both corporate media and a significant segment of the pessimist left are committed to the mantra that this sign is morally indistinguishable from a 'In this house, we believe...' sign.
