Sestak was a cool interview

Good news: he's a new deal democrat
Bad news: he's just a new deal democrat

other than that though listening to his tirade about how war with Iran is suicide was good

Imagine thinking it's bad to not just immediately forget about the fact a famous pedophile human trafficker died mysteriously in jail before his trial.

Especially when it was the largest domestic news story for several weeks running

I was handling some life matters when it exploded so all I saw was that and someone's screencap of someone removing a review that was being quoted around going "I was joking you weirdos, stop harassing me". I stand corrected!

In the future just assume that the stupidest possible explanation is true.

Watched eyes wide shut last night and the episode this morning.

I dont know how much the somerton stuff nick mentioned is intentional but for me the line that sums up the thesis of the movie is "You showed up in a taxi and everyone else showed up in a limousine."

Joker didn't blew it by not being subtle but by not saying enough. The movie even setup a breed of super trash rats and then Joker doesn't even let them loose on De Niro's show. This should have gone full Gremlins 2 levels of insanity.

Thinking about their interview with Joe Dante and how he said he was more into the Joker than Batman.

The big sitcom that the media class loves gushing about is The Good Place which isnt necessarily bad but its comedy feels super clean and toothless compared to other stuff. Its basically the "Sensible Chuckle" magazine from that gag in Danger 5 but an entire show.

Like I said I don't think The Good Place is bad, and I've enjoyed almost all episodes I've seen, its just an incredibly sincere and unironic show.

Joaquin's performance really carries a lot of the weaker parts of the movie. I think if there was even a marginally less skilled actor in the role the movie would have been received much more negatively.

Well they formally allied with the Russians and Assad a few days ago and have had some success in stymieing the Turkish advance so far.

Listened to the Zizek episode and loved it.

Dude is genuinely fun to listen to and can have real insights into political moments and culture. He has some weird ideas as well but it always feels like hes at least presenting his position in good faith.

i can understand the “i dont like this game because the character is an aggressively hetero masc dude” because i bounced off witcher 3 for the same reason

but my hot take on that is that not every game has to appeal to all people, and i dont think it makes the game bad that for whatever reason the protagonist didnt click with me enough to want to spend 60 hours with him

This happens in less interactive media as well, I couldn't stand a single character in Mr. Robot after three episodes and I stopped watching, this isn't really any different
