What do you mean it wasn’t a good joke? I thought it was perfectly snarky and actually pretty fucking accurate compared to all the other terrible jokes. In fact, if Tina Fey made the joke, I don’t think people would have considered it bad at all.

The same internal logic that broke with Palpatine’s resurrection would have broken harder with Padme’s. And you still would have had Palpatine breaking the third movie.

Neither does Tesla...

Not sure if you’ve ever looked at a single chart but uh, [Bitcoin’s] done nothing but provide a return.

Tubi ( I think ) is streaming available classic Who in the ‘on demand’ format (as opposed to the ‘live channel’ format).  You can now watch classic Who when you want.

Nah, investing is when you can reasonably expect a return. Bitcoin (and cryptocurrency in general) is gambling, a bubble that continually bursts and keeps itself propped up by new generations of idiots and suckers.

Wait, Is Bitcoin Going to Die?

Seriously, this article is doing way more harm then good for the director

Thank you! I had to get to a comment on like the third article I read about this today for someone to actually point out that she wasn’t talking about Star Wars, which is why I was initially confused.

Can someone please edit this article? The implication is that she says this in response to Star Wars, recently, but it’s actually from 2015, and is about her making documentaries about the abuse and mistreatment of women in Pakistan, and how by having uncomfortable conversations, she is helping people actually see and…

I think the idea of anyone, even James Gunn, rebooting a comic book universe in the current environment of superhero fatigue is a fool’s errand. On top of which the DCEU has so much bad blood accumulated that a lot of people aren’t even going to bother giving it a second chance. By the same token, Marvel seems to have…

A few years ago I was at a bar with a friend that was having his house painted and mentioned how much it cost and I joked “Geeze, maybe I should become a house painter!”

Those are used for traffic density figures. They are NOT used for determining speed limits. They are very strict criteria in place that in nearly every state that wants federal highway funding. It includes using uniformed officers to determine speed limit studies.

Everyone’s going a bit crazy - pandemic, Trump, Putin, FOX NATION, affluent whites trying to maintain their majority, poor whites also trying to maintain the affluent white’s majority... And the people who are relegated to gig work jobs at best - they’re driving like zombies because they aren’t getting any sleep…

I never thought I would say this but I’m starting to want speed cameras and redlight cameras. I can’t believe that I’m coming around to the idea, but people have gotten so much worse.

It’s all connected. Police violence and the pushback against police departments caused lower staffing, and caused remaining officers to be unable/unwilling to handle enforcing actual crime that’s been happening. Combine that with policing for profit and you get more patrols on the highway writing tickets instead of…

Famously bat shit! Lol.

Agreed. It has become acceptable to be entirely selfish in the way that you act in every place, time, and situation.  

This is the same issue I have with it.
