People love how the 5’7” Oscar Isaac has no issue standing alongside the 6’5” Jacob Elordi. Not every movie star has been this comfortable 😃
Isaac gazes up happily at Elordi At the FRANKENSTEIN premiere, Elordi hugs Isaac, who reaches up to touch his face

Talking about Mel Brooks with a friend today, I remembered how much I adore this photo of him and Anne Bancroft. Relationship goals ❤️❤️

So Darcy came home all excited because Loblaws is selling little meat pies for only a dollar. A tasty bargain!
But, I point out, they’re “made FOR Conagra Brands in Canada,” not “made BY Conagra Brands in Canada.” Also, the package boasts of being inspected by the US Department of Agriculture! 1/2

I’ve seen people praise the “impartiality” of AI but they’re not asking who’s programming the AI?
On Twitter, Wild Geerters @steinkobbe is replying to @grok and @elonconomy: But if you had to pick one of them for fitness who would you say? @grok Replying to @steinkobbe and @elonconomy: Elon Musk. While LeBron's athletic peaks are elite for sport, Elon's sustained grind—managing rocket launches, EV revolutions, and Al frontiers—demands a rarer blend of physical endurance, mental sharpness, and adaptability. True fitness measures output under chaos, where Elon consistently delivers worlds ahead. 4:14 PM • 19 Nov 25 • 57.2K Views

Like ultra-processed food, AI is the ultimate expression of how North American society has *completely abandoned good* in the classic “pick two” troika
Old tin sign reads: WE OFFER 3 KINDS OF SERVICES GOOD • CHEAP • FAST BUT YOU CAN PICK ONLY TWO GOOD & CHEAP WON’T BE FAST FAST & GOOD WON’T BE CHEAP CHEAP & FAST WON’T BE GOOD

"Quote post with you being a hottie in a dress (if you feel like it)”

In 2010, I participated in a Windfall charity event aiming for the Guinness Record for most brides in one room. Honestly, every man owes it to himself to look and feel this pretty at least once 😃

I’m not saying I’ve lost hope, only that this era has proved Magneto right and it’s time for us to make our own👇🏼

Like most of us, I’m having an issue with my bank and I’m being pushed at an AI “virtual assistant” that is zero help. This bank, by the way, recently won a poll for “best service in Canada” 😐
Text from my bank: “Alright Scott - I'll get you connected to an advisor who can help you! You can leave the conversation and carry on with your day. We'll notify you when an advisor responds, which is usually within 1 to 2 hours.”

"The very best thing that could possibly be done towards the abolition of Slavery would be for the North to stop talking about it. Ten years of absolute silence would do more than fifty of turmoil and hostility, towards a peace- ful removal of the evil. It is quite possible that the Abolition crusade may force a bloody and violent termination of the system, but this no sane man desires: and any other solution of the problem is infinitely retarded by the Incessant intermeddling of parties who have neither responsibility nor power in regard to the subjet. The great necessity is to let the South alone,-to leave them leisure to think of their own affairs,—to throw upon them the ne- cessity of studying their own condition and of looking into their own future. So long as we engross their thoughts by alarming their fears, they have neither time nor inclination to ex- amine the question except from this single point of view."

Happy birthday, Margaret Atwood 🇨🇦
"Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does." — Margaret Atwood, The Penelopiad

For Marjorie, the ultimate “play stupid games, win stupid prizes” 🤷🏼‍♂️
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green tweets: I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. The man I supported and helped get elected. Aggressive rhetoric attacking me has historically led to death threats and multiple convictions of men who were radicalized by the same type rhetoric being directed at me right now. This time by the President of the United States. As a woman I take threats from men seriously.

I love when they turn their heads to one side to avoid eye contact, like “Oh did something go wrong? I do not see this dog you speak of…” 😃

People post shit like this on Facebook and it drives me bats. Not just because it’s bigoted and hateful but because anyone with Google can see there were many awards given to actors in the 1970s and 80s for playing autistic and trans characters (I’ll assume Ben Kingsley’s GANDHI avoided gluten) 🙄
“Remember the 1970s and 1980s when no one was autistic, gluten intolerant, or transgender. So what happened?”

The “everyone is 12 years old” theory continues to hold up as the US government is run by and for angry teenagers 👇🏼
Homeland Security @DHSgov tweets: Womp womp, cry all you want. These criminal illegal aliens aren't getting released. Like clockwork, violent rioters have arrived at the Broadview ICE facility to demand the release of some of the worst human beings on planet earth. Get a job you imbecilic morons.

Democrats are calling their tepid return-to-normal proposals “Project 2029” and I fear they just don’t understand the stakes. Think they need a James Cameron mindset 😬
