26 (I googled).  but yeah, it’s a question worth asking

Is she 13 or 30?

Those folks should check out a couple of billion dollar animated films called Spiderverse that are super pluralist, diverse, and queer.

I feel like you intentionally missed the point of the article to fit in with what you want to see. The point is that Elemental has much longer legs than expected and is sticking around when most analysts thought it would drop off completely. Has it been a huge success? No but only two animated movies have this year:…

But over the last several weeks, Disney’s done a better job at conveying what the film actually is and relating it to the real world context of its director Peter Sohn.

James DeMonaco doesn’t seem to realize that the only reason there have been 5 Purge movies isn’t because they make a half a billion dollars, it’s because each one probably costs less than the studio head’s car collection to produce.

  Wait, woman wakes up to find her ship’s crew is dead under mysterious circumstances?  Isn’t this just Pandorum without the delightful cannibalism, interesting plot twists, and psychological horror aspects?

Blustery bullshit from Musk, probably hoping that they can squeeze some money from Meta over Threads in a settlement.

So Elon buys Twitter, and immediately fires 80% of its engineers. Those unemployed engineers announce on Twitter that they’ve been laid off without notice or cause. How does Elon respond? He makes fun of them. He says they deserved to be fired, because they were bad at their jobs.

LOL...

so the answer is to relaunch angry birds as a 3d RPG? it’s crazy enough to work!!!

This is America, the land of stupid ideas. What really matters is whether or not it will make money. Probably not.

Good article, Isaac, but lobopodians aren’t worms. The name applies to limbless long-bodied invertebrates, but really it should be restricted to members of the phylum Annelida. In any case, lobopodians had limbs. Lots of them.

This is a stupid idea.

going full authoritarian, I see

I guess all that concern-mongering over digital privacy was just for the American tech giants.

And Macron leans even harder into authoritarianism.

Precisely what American law enforcement would love to do. Thankfully, that still requires a warrant. For now.

Trying to quell the rioting French public is historically, a poor decision:

Maybe try de-militarizing the police, instead.
