Oct 12th 1985 - The Comedian was murdered 📽️📅 Watchmen (2009)

2 Screenshots from the movie "Watchmen" (2009): First, a dark, rain-soaked street with a silhouette of a figure walking, carrying a sense of foreboding; the subtitle reads "Rorschach's journal, October 12, 1985." Second, a close-up of a hand placing a smiley face button on a street grate, symbolizing an ominous event; the subtitle reads "Tonight, a comedian died in New York."

Happy Rorschachs Journal entry day to all who celebrate.

The opening page of The Watchmen.
A smiley face badge sits in a pool of blood, the blood is draining into a sewer.
"Rorschachs Journal October 12th 1985:
Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire thread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me."

In Netflix's Fear Street adaptation, during one of the 1994 segments we see an AOL chat room window with Calibri selected as the font. This font had not yet been released.

In O BROTHER WHERE ART THOU?, set in the 1930s, George Clooney says "look at Delmar as your paradigm of hope". Nobody used the word "paradigm" as mental model until Thomas Kuhn's THE STRUCTURE OF SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTIONS (1962).

AI should stay away from writing, should never be allowed to take responsibility and should never provide judgements. Used with care, it can be useful for search, data analysis and data organisation. Words matter. Our society will be poorer if we weaken words by letting machines corrupt them. 2/3

Remember when they kicked an entire girl’s softball team out of the championship game because a player posted a private Snapchat where she was flipping off the camera? It’s funny how they never worry about ruining girl’s futures.

“This is not a dark chapter in Cornell’s history, it’s a morbid pattern” Editorial Board at The Cornell Sun absolutely fucking your shit UP www.cornellsun.com/article/2026...

We refuse for this victim to be reduced to just another story.
Cornell has failed to protect its students. Cornell has failed to address the growing issue of sexual assault on campus with its pathetic task force. Cornell has failed the student allegedly raped by those seven men at Chi Phi in October 2024. Cornell has failed her. Cornell has failed us.

To Matthew Ingalls, Jonathan Newell, Winston Lee, Gillio Lopes, Diego Sarabia, Scott Norris and Scott Kretzschmar: We know who you are and we refuse to let you benefit from this University's concealment.

There was also a sense that Trump losing re-election would fix everything. But Biden dragged his feet on undoing the damage of Title IX. And then HE lost re-election and his Title IX regulation was vacated before it ever really went into effect.

The main reason you haven’t heard about campus sexual violence in a few years is because Trump and SCOTUS have made it much, much harder for survivors to come forward. You might vaguely remember that Title IX was a big battleground in his first term. And that we lost.

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

what do you know the most predicable thing happened when a bunch of you decided lolcow farming was ok when you do it

lastditchbar on instagram:

Our community should expect more details in
the future. Today we need to address the safety
of the community itself. Stop harassing Soe
Noire. It is neither productive, progressive, nor
valiant to attack and harass a black patron. He
has been a collaborator and performer of Last
Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his
mind about accountability and repair from the
bar. There are so many misconceptions due to
the disorganization of the Globe's article. He did
not call for a shutdown, nor did he call for the
bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not
disparage the owner for being homeless. As a
result of this abysmal journalism, Soe has been
getting additional threats, slurs, and
harassment, and now he is being reported to the
police over something he did not do. This is not
supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is at its core,
anti-blackness hysteria.

used to hang out at this bar whose other regulars were mostly straight middle aged men and my god their drama. most of em were banned for pissing on the floor or stealing fistfuls of cash from the register. for some reason no one acted like it was a referendum on straightness maleness or ‘the left’

This would have been fun to show on Community. Jeff tries to get tickets for a sold out Paul Simon concert but can’t afford scalper prices. Pierce says he’s friends with Paul, but nobody believes him. Finally, Pierce shows them the video as proof, but they find the green screen he used to fake it
