We don’t need tiny houses to fix our housing problems. We need efficient land use (ie, less car infrastructure and smaller lots) and a social mindset change. Remember, a huge segment of our population raised whole nuclear families in 900sq.ft. homes. Just imagine not being chained to a massive mortgage and all the…

I just assumed after the main four took pay cuts so Bialik and Rauch could get paid more, it would look bad if they paid Parsons even more money. So they came up with this ingenious scheme where they can pay him to be the narrator of this crap without pissing off Kaley Cuoco too much.

“hey can we make a show where I just have to doing a few voice over lines and you can pay me millions? cool? cool.”

I guess I’m the only person here who didn’t like it. Ah well. Enjoy. I’ll stick with The Orville.

that screenshot for “rule 23: no one is above the rules Donald” is going to be very useful for the next few years.

But CBS is presumably trying to persuade people to buy a product here. Trek fans are the people far, far likeliest to purchase this product, yes, but they’re not a sure thing. People who’ve never heard of Trek or possess only a passing familiarity with Trek are very unlikely to pony up for yet another streaming…

“he never gave the band authorization to use his tracks, which he called, “not up to his standards of quality.””

Same, 19 in 1983, and it was the complete catastrophic fall of civilization that would last for centuries that scared me. The above-mentioned talk by the FEMA guy who tells the farmers to scrape off the topsoil, and the farmers’ responses (“HOW?!?!”) just sold how fucked we would be.

I was 10 when this movie came out, living in the Washington DC suburbs. My parents went to a meeting at church that night, and left me alone with explicit instructions not to watch it. I watched it. It terrified me more than I can express. To this day, thinking of watching it makes me uncomfortable. The first time…

So. I was a young adult when this first aired, and the part that nearly stopped my heart was the EMP right before the explosions.

And apparently Ben Stein wrote some stupid editorial (shocking, I know) about how if people thought nuclear war was bad, they should consider what it would be like if the Soviets invaded instead. Which led to the mostly forgotten “Amerika” mini-series (1987). Which I kind of like because I’m a sucker for alt-history.…

“ ... Dr. Oakes, who somehow survives the blast by ducking down in the front seat of his car (they don’t build ’em like that anymore) ...”

Look at O’Neal, trying to lure us back with great content.

Threads. It’s gut-wrenching, although it supposes that anyone would still be alive in Britain after a full nuclear exchange.

They made a documentary about Kinja?

Yeah but real artists ignore their critics. If she wants to be taken seriously as an artist, and I will admit her talents are considerable, she ought to rise above. She’s doubling down on getting into the muck of petty tabloid feuds with the vengeance of a teenager. She’s not a teenager anymore, she’s tremendously…

She already did a meta thing with Blank Space, which worked a lot better since she seemed to be aware of her image as a some sort of woman scorned man-eater, and was playfully deconstructing it. Here, she acknowledges she’s in a constant cycle of passive aggressive feuding with various people, but argues she’s…

On the one hand, I guess the song and video are marginally better than that Perry shit earlier in the week.

Haters, Sam? Can we just categorize people who problems with her work and persona as “intelligent adults?”
