“I bought that ape in July 2021, and have spent the last several months developing and exploiting the IP to make it into the star of this show,” Green tells Vaynerchuk during VeeCon.”

Even if “everything they do is trolling,” the Rule of Goats applies. If you're fucking a goat ironically, you're still fucking a goat.

And thus ends the longest and most ambitious Wish ever granted by the Make a Wish Foundation.

I’m trying to remember a bigger disparity on SNL between contribution and notoriety, and coming up empty. There are performers who were invaluable to the show who never got much broad public attention. Not a knock on Davidson, it’s just part and parcel with his overall fame and relationship situation - kind of…

I feel dumber for having read this article.

Maybe he meant ghoulish turds but voice to text/autocorrected it to terfs? I was also baffled. Gonna need a yes yes no on this.

Spotify is swallowing so many podcasts and none of them seem the better for it.

“You know how beloved English class drama Upstairs, Downstairs was frank and progressive in its depiction of abuses and social injustice in traditional British life? Well we are not going to do that, everyone! I repeat, we are to be wholly uncritical of the landed gentry or their presumed entitlement to financial and…

Haha, just replying to say I’ve been wondering the same things! It is really bizarre to me how much the internet is caping for gross-ass Johnny Depp. His case is a lightning rod for the type of guys who like to derail conversations about women’s rights with stats on male abuse. Misogyny runs far deeper and wider in…

Isn’t one of the key points of the first Predator how shitty, worthless and destructive that bloated military bravado is? Arnie eventually beat the damn thing in a pretty old-school fashion, nothing a Comanche can’t do.

Oh.

I saw that the hashtag “NoJohnnyNoPirates” was trending after this news broke, and I think that’s the sort of future we can all get behind. No Johnny Depp, and No Pirates movies, thank you very much.

Metaverse is like fetch. Facebook needs to stop trying to make it happen. It’s not gonna happen, okay? Second Life has been doing this before Facebook was even a thing, so it isn’t even a new thing.

Because people like them?

I’m not sure the movie is espousing a might-makes-right philosophy. It’s just a lawless world where might equals survival and possibly power. And Conan’s the baddest motherfucker in it. It’s more Road Warrior than Triumph of the Will.

Aw, no mention of Basil Poledouris’s legendary score for the film? It practically makes the movie. Conan’s prayer to Crom intercut with Thulsa Doom and his riders closing in as the sweeping music plays always gets to me.

Zoolander 2 would also have worked nicely there.

“‘Well that’s like saying don’t make the second episode of the The Sopranos. Like, so why do you think we would screw up the second one?’”

No, Judd, it’s like saying don’t make Anchorman 2.

Dollars to donuts that they make the current tiers the ad-supported ones and charge more to remove ads.

It’ll all become clear when you put on your magic underpants.
