Oh wow. I’m sad, but can’t say I’m really surprised, though. The writings were all over the wall. It’s been a good run.

1st Gear: Someone here, I can’t remember who, said it best a couple of years ago: “Auto manufacturers will learn how to build EVs before Tesla learns how to build cars.”

People keep relying on Tesla’s “technology” to justify the stock price, but I’m still confused what technology Tesla has that other OEM’s don’t.  

Dangit, Collider went all weird and now I’m losing io9 too? Where will I get my spoilers from now? I’ve had a 9.30 appointment in my calendar every weekday morning to come here since....forever.

And Andor!

Trump’s actual base is quite small. The rest of the Republicans vote Trump because he “hurts the people they want him to hurt,” but a lot of them really can’t stand him.

Pre-emptive “eat shit MAGA trolls” for this comments section. That includes you, universalamander.

The presidential candidate from the “party of law and order” is a convicted felon and can’t even vote for himself in his home state.

The finale perfectly encapsulates why the Progenitor story should have been left alone. In the TNG episode the various factions believed that what they would find would be a thing, a weapon, a source of power, whatever. But what they found was an idea, a philosophical truth: we are all more alike than even we realize…

Less of the Enterprise bashing , its 3rd and 4th seasons were really good damn it , I’d actually rank it just over Voyager (which when it was good , was great , but had sooo many dud episodes).

So to conclude, Star Trek Discovery was a bad show that never achieved its potential because of consistently terrible writing, incoherent plotting and weak characterization. It never really got better it just ran along the bottom going from mediocre to outright terrible, A real dud of a show that is pretty inessential…

Seinfeld funded “The Bear Jews of Truth” (an unsubtle allusion to a violent bloodthirsty Zionist character in Inglorious Basterds, although at least that character had the decency to go after Nazis rather than peaceful protesters). That group participated in the violence.

Does this look like using “large screens” to simply show something?

Alternatively, this is Disney reacting to the sustained racist/sexist/etc. diatribes that have already been levelled against the show prior to its release, apparently merely for existing.

It would be great if people would stop using phrases like “reactionary culture war.”

Can we pause for a second and ask why Jerry and his wife are literally paying for hired goons to violently attack peaceful pro-Palestine protests?

I’d argue that being a dick has always been his thing. His humor has relied on sarcasm and a general dismissiveness toward other people’s feelings for a very long time. It just used to be on stage, directed at a straw man breaking the unwritten rules of society, so we tended to agree with him. There was more to it,…

I honestly never liked his comedy though. No overcompensation needed.

Wealthy men always think everyone wants to hear their opinion.
