Wow. Two Cat 4 hurricanes in one year. This has never happened before.

I tried watching Batman Movie 1966 recently. I was only a few minutes in, where Batman and Robin had flown in the Batcopter to stop a bad guy in a yacht, used a batrope, descended the batladder, was attacked by a shark (not a batshark?), and pulled his batsharkrepellent out of his batutility belt.

On the one hand, diversity and courage calls for people of color to take on roles traditionally created for european people. On the other, casting any race other than the specific, non-European originally specified for the role is racist.

So, eliminate all dams. That’s the Green way of fixing problems, eh?

Yeah....that about covers it.

Wait!! I know this...It’s global warming and it’s going to destroy the world.

Or MSNBC. Two sides, same coin.

Sooooo......when a single-story is remade with intent to make it into a franchise, is that a reboot or a remake?

So.....earth getting warmer is a good thing.
