Pack it up, the best burn against Twitter has been said
“Elon Musk is the most incompetent egotistical moron I’ve ever seen, and thats coming from someone who personally knew the man who made To Boldly Flee”

The shape shifting. Does it hurt, or does it—Sorry. Small-minded question.
Welp. I guess we know whose shows to avoid!
Gee, Tumblr would probably really hate it if you shared and spread this damning article … To the surprise of absolutely none of Tumblr’s LGBTQ users, it turns out the independent NYC human rights agency Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) found that Tumblr’s ham-fisted adult content ban in December 2018 disproportionately targeted LGBTQ users. The CCHR’s investigation revealed Tumbler’s moderation algorithms is demonstrably biased against queer content. As part of the settlement, Tumblr was obligated to review their prejudicial anti-gay moderation policies. Even more mortifyingly, they’ve also had to hire an expert on sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) issues and provide unconscious bias training to their moderators. I frankly doubt Tumblr has learned a thing from this humbling experience. Just recently the Tumblr algorithm flagged three ancient posts of mine as violating their terms. All three “offenders” were vintage homoerotic beefcake images (softcore by modern standards) roughly 50 – 65-years-old by Bruce of Los Angeles, Bob Mizer and Tom of Finland. (These are of course pioneering queer artists who routinely faced censorship and imprisonment in the fifties and sixties. Plus ca change!). They've been visible on my page - corrupting viewers - for years at this point. I appealed all three immediately. Only the Tom of Finland one was approved. The other two are now hidden. So, they haven't learned much. Apparently, Tumblr – who loves to declare how hip, youthful, inclusive and progressive their values are - wants to restore trust with their queer users. I’d recommend we remember their hypocrisy when Pride rolls around and Tumblr splashes rainbow flags everywhere and attempts to pink wash their image.
In honour of Pride Month, this is worth a reblog! Don’t buy into Tumblr’s hypocritical “pink washing.”
Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc GLASS ONION: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY (2022) dir. Rian Johnson
Given Pierce Brosnan made his name in the US as Remington Steele, a light hearted action series, and, mongst others, had a fairly memroable comedic turn in “Mars Attacks!” I can assure you could, and would, without hesitation.
I now want the next Knives Out film to have Pierce Brosnan as Benoit Blanc’s Detective Rival who he teams up with to solve a case :D
Economists really looked at an incomplete, ugly-ass Wii Sports knockoff and said "Yes this is worth 13 TRILLION dollars."
If Shitty Wii Sports is worth 13 TRILLION dollars, It's absolute bullshit that I STILL have not been given 1 billion dollars to make a kickass kaiju wrestling game. I guarantee we could make at least a thousand bucks off that, making my unmade kaiju wrestling game an infinitely better investment.
It's worse than that. The poor people probably don't even register in the equation at all (and if they did it was probably just on an actuarial level). They reasoned that the real estate value of the buildings was lower than the cost involved in renovating to protect them (the buildings). This isn't fat cat villains twirling their mustaches, this is the operative logic of capital at work. Which is worse!
FYI there is a GoFundMe that's active right now to help give aid to the indigenous farmworkers who live there:
Objectively the funniest thing to come out of twitter’s sinking ship
The best part is that person did donate $8 to Partners in Health, and so I didn’t delete the tweet.

it’s a boomer meme, but it checks out
aletheius
This is more of a “Greatest Generation” meme technically
mel-gibson-xlii
why are these are still relevant
Capitalism still exists
That meme is half a century old, and yet still as relevant as if done yesterday.
Fun fact: this guy, Ron Cobb, also did concept art for just about every famous sf/fantasy movie of the 1980s.
