Taking a step back, it’s pretty remarkable that “legacy” tech companies like Google, Facebook, etc. have gotten worse not just on average but in every facet. It’s not like they have some recent hits and misses, it’s *everything* they do that’s getting worse.

While I appreciate this may be *a* reason I think the reason people hate tech right now is that basically every major platform has fallen into ruin in lockstep with the highest corporate profits in history, and when asked, companies like Meta say "yeah it'll get shittier too"

100% agreed. This is the first cool one I’ve seen.

So the more I see of this, the more I respect it. The Cybertruck is so unrelentingly and singularly absurd that the only sane aesthetic response is to heap yet more absurdity on top. This exudes a level of "you're locked in here with me" energy that you don't often get the opportunity to witness.

Not when there are more oral histories of the SNL Beavis sketch still to be written, that’s for sure.

Beverly Hills Cop is a fish-out-of-water concept, only in ‘Beverly Hills Cop Promo Code AxelF,’ it’s hard to tell what’s fish and what’s water. open.substack.com/pub/vinceman...

A Culture Clash Comedy in Search of a Cultureopen.substack.com In 'Beverly Hills Cop Axel F,' being a Detroit cop transported to Beverly Hills doesn't produce the comedic contrasts it once did.

It’s interesting in that the acting and filmmaking are reasonably competent but the concept itself doesn’t play. Pitfalls of IP cinema.

This movie has a stock character I’ve come to refer to as “the fanboy” that seems to afflict so many IP movies open.substack.com/pub/vinceman...

Absolutely no one out here doing it like Frank Stallone. Comic sans!

Having July 4th off instead of July 5th is like if we had New Year's Eve off instead of New Year's Day.

Modest Proposal: July 5 should be a national holiday instead of July 4. open.substack.com/pub/vinceman...

I think there were like a million of them? To the point that it’s not news anymore? Are we going to pretend that acknowledging that this dude looks cooked isn’t fair? I don’t get this entire line of reasoning, sorry.

Executive order: July 5 holiday. Who could against? None body
