Deleted the cesspool bird app.
But it's handy to know what's happening there, so I'll keep my account and check it on desktop, as I have adblocker there which means I'm not channeling money into an end-of-civilization PAC.
You know how some movies, the plot is basically "Good guy stops the bad thing they created/unleashed/angered and is somehow the hero"?
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is the most egregious example of this I've seen.
Walter Peck is 100% right. They are a goddamn menace.
Next year will be the 200th anniversary of the first passenger train. At this point, does anyone NOT know about the gap between the train and the platform?
The first thing I saw Donald Sutherland in was a video game called Conspiracy. Early days of CD-ROM games and he played the memory of your character's father in 144p FMV.

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
What exactly was the concern there?
"Hey, you! Frost! Stop watching my woods!"
The most annoying thing about Deep Space Nine that you never noticed and that you will never not notice from now on is that from no windows along the Promenade can you see any of the Upper Pylons.
You also can't see the Docking Ring from the windows of any of the crew quarters in the Habitat Ring.
The best thing I can think to do with a shared cinematic universe for superheroes would be to have Superman vs the Riddler or have Lex Luthor try to destroy Themyscira or have Sinestro attack Central City.
But I don't see it ever happening.
TV executives in the past:
"Let's syndicate this popular show."
"How many episodes of it are there?"
"Four seasons, with twenty-four episodes each."
"So 96 episodes? Why would we syndicate that?"
"They also did four Christmas specials."
"Higgins, get me the affiliates!"
Movie idea: Prime Minister of the UK hates his job, but his multi-millionaire wife will kick him out and cut him off if he quits politics. So he sets out to run the worst general election campaign of all time.
The Acolyte episode 1. We meet our hero, who has a job doing repair work on the outside of ships, in violation of Republic laws, as it's so dangerous only Droids can perform it. Her name is OSHA.
I don't know what's a joke any more.
TV show idea: Cop or FBI agent solves crimes with the help of an e expert. But there's a twist.
You ready?
The expert is *unconventional*.
Boom! Is your mind blown?
I'll take my million dollars now, Hollywood.
I spent 2-3 hours yesterday trying to troubleshoot a code error caused by me writing:
if isAdding = true
Rather than:
If isAdding == true
Mixed feelings, to say the least.
As I've aged, the First Stop I'd Make If I Found Myself In The Star Trek Universe has changed.
Used to be the holodeck.
Then it was a second-hand starship yard.
These days it's the Infirmary.
"Can you regrow knee cartilage? Which hypospray lets me eat dairy again?"
Watching the 90s X-Men show for the first time and I think it's hilarious how differently it does things than Batman TAS from the same era (which I was basically raised on).
I mean it. I don't know who you are, but I know you're out there. Just fucking stop.
And that doesn't mean, "Put it to one side for a while so you can work on The Gellers."
For Hollywood: A eurothriller about a guy who witnesses a murder happening through the Dublin/NYC #portal but who can't get anyone to believe him.
This would not be a very good movie, so it's perfect for Hollywood.
INT - CABIN - NIGHT
The windows light up and a helicopter sounds.
COLONEL: They found me. I don't know how, but they found me.
MAC: We gotta go!
COLONEL: Wait!
MAC: What?
COLONEL: I think I know how they found me.
MAC: Was it your TikToks?
COLONEL: I really shouldn't have geo-tagged myself.
Watching "Kin" for the first time, because it's easier to wait three years for Netflix than it is to try and use the RTÉ player right away.
It's a veritable "Who's whom" of big-name HBO stars.
But I can't get over how much Jimmy looks like Mac from Always Sunny.
EXT - PEARLY GATES - DAY
OJ Simpson: You have to let me in. I was acquitted!
Saint Peter: No, we really don't.
OJ: Can I speak to my lawyer? Is Johnny Cochran here?
Peter: What the fuck do you think?
At the ceremony to welcome Sweden to NATO, the band played Goldsmith's theme to "Star Trek: First Contact".
The band were going to play the theme to "Enterprise" but they didn't want Sweden accused of a war crime on their first day.
