incredibly funny (not the good kind) how c-suite assholes have spent years convincing people that things like unions and living wages will drive up prices. and now that wages are down and unions are weakened, they're raising prices anyway

One side effect of the pandemic was I was going to upgrade my phone in 2020 but couldn't go to the store for months, then came to the conclusion as long as you keep the apps up to date you can hold out for much longer
stupid young people, stop buying a new phone every year if you don't want to be broke. wait no, not like that.

What a bizarre way to frame being anti illegal theft and sale of land and using NYC as a auction block for blood drenched sociopaths.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

I think, when your job is to say stuff, you believe saying stuff is a virtue. Most people could not care less if someone debates someone else with an opposite view. That's Victorian-era politics. It's laughably irrelevant
The new editor of CBS News thinks that Alan Dershowitz and Dana Loesch debating the 2nd Amendment is “news.”
So, pour one out tonight for the actual journalists at CBS who have to listen to this drivel in the am news meeting
(She also says Dersh is “charismatic,” but that’s the lesser horror)

I figure Ken Burns has one, maybe two big documentary series in him before he fully retires. What do you think they should be? My votes include Football, Hip-Hop, World War 1, Reconstruction (though Skip Gates did this one well), Iraq/Afghanistan, 19th Century Expansionism.

Rogue One is tricky. As a character study (which, it almost seems like it's supposed to be?), it's abysmal - the protagonist has, I think, about one page of dialogue in the entire movie, and you easily forget everyone's names.
Everything else about the movie is phenomenal.

rogue one is bad folks. i have believed this since i saw it in theaters and no subsequent rewatch has changed my mind. basically a chop job until the final sequence, which is good (for star wars)
