The island nation of Japan knows what the fuck they’re doing with tofu.

Still cringing at the memory of me holding forth in some bar all “You never know with Doctor Who rumors, but one thing I’m *certain* of is they’re not doing a Sea Devils spinoff.”

Celebrating Thanksgiving in the traditional Pilgrim style of getting piss-drunk in a tiny Tokyo hole-in-the-wall bar where they sell shots of tequila for 500 yen.

The nation of Japan wants to make it incredibly easy for you to pee and charge your phone. A real society.

An under-discussed way of getting yourself out of a corner with a script is to ask yourself “wait, what am I actually trying to say with this thing?”

That third paragraph reads as code for “one of Bezos’s hacks made us run this with zero editorial process.”
very odd that the Post would write up someone’s speciation as if it’s news. What are we doing here

Gotta love how lives are being wrecked, industries are being stripmined, and the world is being torched, just so a few warped executives can tug their milky little twiglets over the impossible fantasy of a world where products are made for free and sold for thousands to unemployed people.

This is completely fucking insane. None of these people know what the fuck they’re doing. They’re staring into the toilet hypnotized by their own turds.

On the one hand it is funny that MAGA’s big Hollywood play is reviving a franchise (Rush Hour) with no white leads that they would complain bitterly about if it was launched today. But ultimately the goal is bringing back Ratner to further erode the stigma on sexual predation.

I am being completely sincere when I say that Udo Kier’s performance as Professor Pericles on SCOOBY-DOO: MYSTERY INCORPORATED is easily in his top 5 best roles.

RIP to one of the greats.
