It's kind of amazing that they found a movie which was so full of targets for riffing as this "Sting of Death" movie.

I do wonder why they didn't just put a bandaid on that "spot". Seeing the spot didn't really add anything to the storyline that I can remember!

This could have included a call-back to the Rifftrax riff of "Missile to the Moon", which is one of my favorite early riffs.

I hope so, but independent media includes a lot of people who have their own goals in mind, where those goals are not necessarily to "provide a complete and accurate picture of events".

I'm not sure of the connection between my comment and yours. The people I'm talking about aren't even mentioning Palestinians or Israel. Some people I know who have never mentioned Ed Sheeran before are now making snide comments about Ed and suggest they're supporting Macklemore as an artist.

Garance A Drosehn @drosehn.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
I notice some people want to make a big show about how they support Macklemore "as an artist", so they don't have to talk about what he was actually *doing* or what is signified by his actions.

I'd argue that we might be dead in 10 years, but I'll agree with him that it won't be AI that kills us. That doesn't mean I'm a fan of either AI or Mike Johnson, but the only way AI will kill us is if we're stupid enough to let it. And that's a problem with *us* (IMO), not AI.

It's worth looking into, but do you really believe we'd happen to hit a wedding in the middle of a city while hitting military targets which are not in cities? I follow you because I hate so much of what Trump is doing, but you're echoing accusations *from the IRGC* which have no proof behind them.

I'm only a tiny bit jewish (1/64th, I think), but I spend a lot of time following multiple sources who live in the mideast. And it is so exasperating when I'll reply to someone about *facts* in the mideast, and they reply with "Well, as a jew...", and then repeat lies picked up via social media.

I expect that is automatically done by AI, probably whatever Meta calls it's own stupid foray into AI. I'd consider this another example showing that AI's may be able to "predict" words, but they have no understanding of what the words mean.

Canada has some financial problems of their own, and it might be that they're happy to have an external enemy (Trump) to blame it on. It's easier for a countries leaders to rally their country around an external enemy.
