Aren’t all Funko Pops ultimately destined for the landfill anyway?

I’ve been visiting the Gawker-GMG-G/O sites long enough that I’ve seen the site organization go from cluttered and busy, to streamlined and simple, and now back to cluttered and busy. So I expect in a few years you’ll go back to streamlined and simple.

Most boring Miami Vice episode ever.

Imagine spending years and years doing this petty bullshit, being banned dozens of times, with nothing to show for it. There’s some real mental illness behind this guy’s motivation.

If you followed the advice in this article, you may have to undo it. I did all the above steps about three months ago, and everything was fine until a couple days ago when all my torrents stalled and I could not get them going again. I undid the changes this article suggests and now everything works again.

I would very much like to see Will Smith taken down by a tranq dart and net gun, so maybe they should let him back this year just to test the new system.

We have a really great local mechanic, and before a big road trip we take the car in for a “trip check”. I’m a car hypochondriac, so a personal inspection will only convince me that every hose and belt is going bad and that I did all the fluid levels wrong. The trip check costs around $50 and it gives me that value

Congratulations to the Daniels! I’m going to watch the “Turn Down for What” video to celebrate.

Now playing

Just a reminder that the perfect Tetris short film has already been made:

I would have added the casual yet sublime Laid Back Camp to the list, but otherwise I have no complaints.

I am a huge fan of noir detective stories, and OddTaxi really scratched that itch for me. It’s wonderful!

Aggretsuko season 5 is premiering this week, not ending. I saw “finale” and felt like I betrayed my beloved Retsuko by ignoring the whole season.

I’m looking forward to the new Fawlty Towers starring Gina Carano and James Woods. Special appearance by Kevin Sorbo.

For some reason my browser never loads those TikTok windows, and I’m beginning to feel grateful for it.

Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head” is a great song, but it was a weird song to put in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

This reminds me that I haven’t watched Dark City for a long time. The director’s cut is awesome!

I’d rather watch Michael Palin just eating a sandwich. He’d bring warmth and humanity to it, and it would still be very funny.

I love the front row seats! Our local theater has reclining seats and foot rests for the front row so you can slouch like a puddle of meat. And being so close to the screen makes it a very immersive experience, especially for action movies.

I was happy to see a really old game come back on Steam recently. I bought Montezuma’s Revenge for the PC back in the early 80s, and shared it around my ninth-grade computer class (PC version on front of the floppy, Apple version on the back!) which in retrospect led me down a lifelong path of piracy.

This is some dark shit. Time to back away from the pop culture. This is fucking you up inside.
