Better Call Saul is more easy-going than Breaking Bad, because BB is a story about how Walt is evil and in BCS we already know Jimmy is just... flawed. It's a much lower stress rewatch.

A ★★★★ review of Resident Evil (2026)
Absolutely rips, my theater ate it up. Incredible creature effects and gore, great kills, and some well timed laugh lines to break the tension. I suppose I'm gonna have to see Weapons now!

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

Yet another issue where every single person who touched it needs to end up in jail for us to have any semblance of the rule of law. You cannot have a functional democracy where the government creates a plan to literally throw away votes from places that don't support the incumbent party.

I would move away from calling this "politicization" and call it a criminal conspiracy. Hegseth is explicitly denying promotions on the basis of race. That is a constitutional violation and a crime.

Spiritually, Jerry Ferrara being in a commercial that features him and a dozen former athletes/sports people is the most "Turtle in Entourage" thing he could do. It's almost beautiful. Art, life, and all that.

it is pretty incredible how badly the WNBA have fucked this all up, because trying to placate transphobic bigots nets you zero new fans, but telling them to eat shit can get you new fans who’ve never even cared about sports

I can't play this game, but I once told a friend the only Kubrick movie I'd seen was Eyes Wide Shut. We briefly wondered if that was the weirdest possible answer if you have only seen one of his films, until I remember Kubrick directed Lolita.
