Don’t sleep on falling on her own sword. That’s always an option, and it’s one that I, personally, would recommend for her.

Corey Booker has taken in over $700,000 in “donations” from AIPAC. I don’t think he’s “bearing” anything with that grin.

We should treat him like an Egyptian pharoah, and entomb him with all of his cabinet members.

You can say “With a mortar launcher.” Because that’s its own sentence.

I adore the whimsy of this.

Welp. I’ve been thinking about transitioning some of my Next.js code over to Remix anyway. Guess I just found another reason to do so.

Yeah - she was definitely way more chill in the movie than in the book. The two characters were similar, in the way that a dragonfly is similar to a dragon.

Just watched it the other day. Stayed true to the book in the very broad strokes, but lots of differences when you look closely. Didn’t like the choice of making him a goofy, clumsy, socially awkward idiot; I feel like they went way too far with that.

I would have loved to see more of a progression with Ryland’s interactions with Rocky. He meets him, then like 2 scenes later, he’s got a voice synthesizer hooked up with an essentially complete Human - Eridian dictionary. Would have been nice to include a montage, at least. It just all felt so rushed.

Anyway - I give it like a 6.5 - 7 out of 10. It’s ok, but probably not one I’m going to want to watch again. It’s no “The Martian”.

I don’t know anything about Malhuret, what his politics are, what kind of person he is, etc. But he’s 100 million percent fucking spot on about Trump.

Sad to see the old Zombo.com go, but this new jingle is legitimately a fucking banger.

I wonder if John Bidwell is haunted by his discovery. I know I would be. That shit is cursed as fuck.

You’ll see a lot of brutal shit like servitors (lobotomized humans turned into mechanical servants). The origin for that is that AI was once very much in use, but the computers rose up and threatened humanity’s survival, so they made it very illegal. They now use “AI”, or “Abominable Intelligence”: living humans who have been turned into computers.

Another thing that’s interesting is that humanity’s been in the dark ages for so long that nobody has any idea how their shit works anymore. So they have people, called “tech priests” who dedicate their lives to learning voodoo bullshit to keep the machines running. Essentially, they believe that the machines are imbued with souls and they have to perform certain rituals to keep the machine spirits happy. All the giant military hardware they have is thousands of years old because nobody has any fucking clue how to manufacture it anymore. Same thing for most of their computer systems.

No, no. I’m very well familiar with myself, and that guy’s a dick.

Horseshit:

“Never interfere with an enemy when he is in the process of destroying himself.”

Well… good. Hope he dies.

Which one always tells the truth?

I wonder if “twats getting all road ragey” is factored into the speed limit safety calculations at all. Kind of feels like it should be.

Well that’s a stupid fucking question for a citizenship test.

Love this pic of him cowering on Jan 6th, 2021, though.
