And he always engages in the comments, which is great.

Jesse Hassenger’s back, baby! He’s really one of the guys I wanted to see return here. Dude doesn’t do clickbait, he’s sincere, and has some deep, decent pop-cultural chops.

TIL John Leguizamo thinks he’s 2005-circa Brad Pitt.

I don’t want to be dismissive of his feelings, but a distinct quirk in his discourse give a disconcerting impression that his disposition might be disturbingly distressed

I keep seeing Chris Pine and thinking, Its time for a D&D rewatch

It probably isn’t. They just have aggregated all the used inventory across the entire group on each of the stores used inventory pages. The mitsu store shows 952 used in inventory and the group as a whole (9 stores) shows 982.

Honestly, good for him. He made something that was for him and he loved and it seems like he’s the only one. But he is not hating on the critics, nor does he feel ashamed - he disagrees but loves what he made. That is seriously a great attitude and good for him.

I agree.  He made something he loved.  He’s not hating on the critics or saying that they’re idiots and that he made a masterpiece. He made something he loved, and he still loves it, and good for him.  You’re allowed to love something you worked really hard on.

I occasionally go back to Tim Burton’s Ed Wood just to remind myself that no matter how bad an artist someone is, that doesn’t mean at all that they can’t be a perfectly good and nice person who deserves happiness like anyone else. And if they’re still proud of their work, that should be celebrated.

Fortunately I can separate my appreciation of Chris Pine from a bad (allegedly) movie he made.  At this point I’m curious enough to invest two hours finding out firsthand.

Yeah, he could be taking to the Internet to rant and rave about how people "just don't get it", but he seems to be taking the criticism in stride and still enjoys what he made. It's an admirable attitude.

Yeah. Like we can deservedly mock the movie, but it was clearly a labor of love. So great that Pine was able to process that reaction in such a healthy way.

You know, good for him. 

Unless another streamer like Netflix saves it, Season 5 of Lower Decks has been announced to be it’s last.

First we need to build cargo rockets to send in advance. So they can gut them to make human transport back to space a possibility. And we need to burry a nuclear reactor on Mars. And don’t forget to bring the spuds. 

the comments here proves her point

Yes, she didn’t use the term “woke,” but to claim this “isn’t anything bordering” on the woke-killed-comedy claims is a stretch... They’re two different accents speaking the same words. Both she and Seinfeld were describing the difficulties of trying to be funny in a world where the Internet outrage machine has been…

In what world is this NOT another “woke killed comedy” rant? Because it sure as hell sounds like one to me. I see no difference, aside from you being a fan and not wanting to admit that is what she meant.

Seems very similar to the “woke killed comedy” thing, or at least the woke-adjacent “cancel culture”.

This type of propulsion tech is the next ‘evolution’ of the chemical rocket, and is a *HUGE* mile marker on the road to becoming a space-faring civilization. And this is also where NASA is at its best -- pursuing ‘pure research’ technology demonstrators that push the envelope of what humanity can do. NASA should…
