I gleefully shared this movie with my own children — who tearfully and angrily berated me for not warning them about this scary scene. And then within the year, they were gleefully sharing this movie with their friends, and laughing at the frightened response to Large Marge.

The cigarette guy freaked me out the most.

Already I’m pretty disappointed by the show. Honestly, figuring out what caused this and whether all men suddenly died or if all men can’t live anymore is going to have a huge effect of what to do. Questions I would 100% expect the government to have answers for by day 10:
- Did people pregnant with boys lose them?
-…

There’s only been 3 episodes out so far to establish the disaster actually happening. Maybe more focus will be placed upon Yorick in later episodes.

First, NASA launches have cheering as well usually however, it is explicitly cut out of the broadcast audio feed as it used to be considered distracting by network broadcasting (i.e. a third party commentator/reporter). If you listen closely to Apollo 13 launch (which was famously so “boring” that none of the TV…

Large Marge FTW

If you’ve ever watched a SpaceX launch, you’ll realize they always do that. Or at least for any launch of any significance. Yeah, the cheering is less pronounced at a 4:00 a.m. launch of yet another 60 Starlink satellites, but these are actually people who are excited about what they’re doing.  Good for them.

They were cheering because it didn't explode.

Roger Rabbit was a scary movie for my nephew.  He’s 20 now, but when he was a kid, I showed him and his siblings RR and he was terrified at times, and would hide his face or peek through his fingers.

Tons of footage and updates today! Turns out the first 24 hours they were probably puking their brains out and unable to do too much 

Though can we talk about how bad Yorrick is of minding Ampersand?  ONCE PER EPISODE something goes wrong, and it’s 100% because he’s all, “I’m gonna let the monkey out of the carrier and surely nothing will go wrong.”  

Germain had posted an article a few days back about Y The Last Man and somehow the top comment was someone stating losing half the population, all men, is a dumb premise that wouldn’t be a catastrophic world ending event.

Good for them. Many Armageddon stories show improbable “clean” things like stocked supermarkets, working Harriers and relatively corpse free streets.

I’ve read that even for trained astronauts, the first few days in space are actually pretty uncomfortable, with nausea, sinus headaches, vertigo, and a lot of other issues common as your body readjusts to zero g. This may partially explain why the crew is taking it a bit slow. Supposedly, a big part of this mission is…

I’m a bit over 40 and care deeply about the first two world wars since they were the main drivers that shaped how the world looks today. Then again, a lot of people my age and younger got a HORRIBLE history education and so they don’t appreciate the profound effect of the wars in the past ~100 years and were actually…

I don’t think they care, but in some way I don’t blame them for that. I don’t think that anyone below 20-25 really care about 9-11 because they didn’t live it.
We (people in the 30+ range) saw everything that happened live. We experienced the dread an the horror of that attack. We knew the wold before, and we know…

“Maybe they think this president has been extremely stagnant.”

I’m ignoring all the racism and old southern tradition of honoring losers of the sourth, I was initially taken by the picture. The Auburn students (I assume they are auburn students), with “Never Forget” painted on their bodies, as they cheer wildly, wave pom-poms, and look extremely pleased. It seems they’ve…

Foundation and Jon Stewart will finally snag me at the end of the month and I’ll go back for an older thing or two like For All Mankind. And there's a movie with Tom Hanks on a boat. Or a submarine?

Axe?  That’s a putter you fools.
