What a deeply weird (and somewhat weak) year for novels and their awards. I’ve read all the Hugo and Nebula nominated novels except Kaiju Preservation Society. I previously ranked the Nebula nominees, so I have updated that list with the Hugo nominees. I correctly predicted the Nebula winner but I haven’t got a clue…

It’s that time of year again

There’s probably a better chance of them letting you hide all the non-reality tv. Zaslav only understands lowbrow swill. 

8 Mile? Really? 8 Mile!?? When True Romance or RoboCop are right there?

This list really seems to be: Here’s a movie set in this state, but down below we list a number of movies which are obviously and clearly better than the first movie we mentioned.

Hate to be an asshole, but yea, you definitely aren’t a physics expert. 

Of course, it’s not all that hard to see the appeal of the true-crime bandwagon: There are some truly excellent titles out there

Found Armie Hammer’s anon account.

Kenji Lopez-Alt actually did a comparison study of different techniques for making sun tea and was able to show that:

It’s really easy to brew tea in the fridge, so why even take a chance? Bacteria grows lots of places that have no sugar added (if you store your tea in a damp or humid area, stuff’s gonna grow on it, for sure). The formula isn’t sugar+water, it’s organics+water

Life finds a way.

The Last of Puss?

The article could use some more details.

The Titanic is the only ship that has killed millionaires in two separate centuries.

It’s really hard to be a GOP Congressperson these days. On the one hand, you need those shadowy agencies to wield as much power as possible for you to benefit from. On the other hand, you have to support the “GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN WEAPONIZED AGAINST ME!!!” bullshit.  It’s a real pickle.

We should start a Gizmodo pool for how long it takes before Elon shit cans her or she quits after dealing with his special brand of bullshit.. I’ll take the 6 month square for $20

I don’t know why you didn’t make this clear- Zelenskyy is Jewish. What Tucker was doing was using antisemitic tropes- that Jews are ratlike, that Jews persecute Christians, that Jews are in league with bankers to control things.

Everyone uses pronouns.  You used six in your post just now.

“surely both Barry Allens can defeat Zod”

I vote it should be “Barrys Allen”.

You’re working too hard to be disappointed in this. 

We’re never going to stop laughing at you.
