One does not simpl-- oh shit, it worked

It hasn’t been hit with one of those big months-long dust storms yet, thankfully. But when it does, it might not have enough battery to shake it off when it’s over. And those dust storms can make the sky very dark, so it wouldn’t be able to recharge even if the solar panel was clear.

Cool but rude. We don’t take that Turtles: Out of the Shadows revisionism around these parts.

That weird, unearned death was definitely one of the low points of that final season and was very emblematic of the whole “let’s clear the table by sweeping everything off onto the floor” approach to resolving the story.

It’ll be bigger than Cereal Killer: Against The Grain!

If the “alleged” LGBTQ content isn’t the problem, though, Variety does add that various other Barbie things have been banned in Saudi Arabia because of the way they depict Barbie herself, with the article presenting the theory that the Gerwig movie is “too camp while also posing too great a challenge to traditional…

They really don’t see the problem and it’s disgusting and pathetic. I can see the “whoops” in mistyping, especially since cops don’t seem to be all that bright and apparently it’s too much for them to know the postal abbreviations for states. Okay, fine, they made a mistake there. I can see that.

The ideas where *so incredibly* basic, 100 course level, surface-skimming concepts that the fact The Gamers(tm) reacted the way they did still dumbfounds me when I think about it. I cannot think of a single thought experiment more harmless than any concept she discussed.

Smithers, I’m starting to think this Elon Musk fellow is not the brilliant tactician I thought he was.

I hope it lives up to it. When I first read Dracula as a teenager, the Demeter logs scared the ever loving shit out of me (the only part of the book that scared me), so expectations are high here.

Absolutely!  And I’m definitely planning to watch the movie, I’d just be more excited if they weren’t telegraphing the ending.  A movie about a completely doomed crew fighting to the last against an unstoppable evil is far more compelling to me.

It’s not always about the destination, but the journey. 

I think society changed enough since then that we all collectively realized how silly it was that we prudishly shamed Reubens for doing a totally harmless normal thing, and Reubens felt that.

You mean we’ll enter the “finding out” phase of fucking around?

This makes Elon look much cooler than he deserves, honestly.

Orchis is just humans using technology to fight mutants.

More like the writers can’t think of any decent new idea...

Yeah, both Marvel and Star Wars oversaturated themselves, so it would be smart to scale back to projects that would genuinely garner interest over “let’s just do it because we have a content hole to fill”

So now we get “From the creators of Atlanta comes... Lando.”

This was better than the article it’s commenting on.
