Political strife isn’t going to hurt Disney, which at this point owns about 1/3 of entertainment in the United States and could sustain the temporary loss of a major part of its business. At this point it’s so large that it would take government effort to dismantle. In principle, a state denying a corporation the…

Go ahead you racist traitors, have your little confederate loser pity party.

It’s amazing to me when people are like “oh there’s a wealth of Star Trek content these days”, but if you look a little closer, the sum total is:

It’s not just the mistake of trying to pursue the financial success of other franchises, it’s that they have involved people who clearly do not understand and/or appreciate some of the core elements of Star Trek that are crucial to it’s appeal among diehard Trekkies and casual fans.

Pretty sure some people were drunk when they made No Time To Die.

It doesn’t really matter what kind of logical, constitutional, precedent-based argument you make to a hypocritical group of partisans who view every question through the lens of their own conservative bigotry.

“Bruce...I mean Ricky...I wanna be in the bloody babaloo show, mate!”

Yeah. The greater danger of deepfakes isn’t that they will change anyone’s mind or convince them of something new- it’s that it will enable them to dismiss any evidence they don’t like as a fake and accept any (faked) evidence that agrees with what they want to or have been told to believe.

Someone needs to follow him around and gather these pee bottles for resale. I’ll bet that a homeopathic level of diluted Rock piss is still enough growth hormones to give a normal human being 3” of height and 25 lbs of muscle mass.
