Watched Argylle. It was okay. There was some stuff I liked, but there were also many problems. I agree with @Shawn that the plot twists were underwhelming. There really wasn't any emotional weight to them, it was 'Oh, okay." and move on. Which especially didn't make sense when, for example...

That's too bad. It had looked like a fun film in the trailer. I'll still give it a try (hey, it's free!) but go in with lower expectations.

Try and tell the young people of today that, and they won't believe you

подбит = hit затонули/уничтожен = sunk/destroyed небоеспособен = incapacitated после ремонта боевых побрежденуй = after repair, battle damaged

Well, crap, I was hoping they had the "one free article" thing. It's from the newest print issue (March 2024).

The Rise of Technoauthoritarianism I will now be referring to social media as "algorithmic feedbags".

The neighborhoods around me were built in the 60s and there are churches inside the residential areas. They're surrounded by single-family homes. 1705443122 :hide:

Some of the commenters on the article mentioned the church was next to the homeless shelter, and... Yep. It's literally right next door (Google Maps), so this makes zero sense. If the actual homeless shelter is just feet away, why does this church sheltering people even matter to whatever...

But the best part was where, 36 hours after an Iowa school shooting, he told Iowans to "get over it". Also, MAGNETS HOW THE FUCK DO THEY WORK?

Is it just me, or has there recently been a major uptick in batshit crazy ads? For years on YouTube, I just got the normal products and services type ads, but lately it's been all sorts of MAGAt shit when I don't go anywhere near those types of videos. It got bad enough that I broke down and got...

I've had a two cards stolen the past couple years. It sucks.

The Smothers Brothers were one of my favorites. Fun Fact: Tommy plays guitar and is mentioned in the lyrics on John Lennon's "Give Peace a Chance".

It's standing next to the pink elephant.

All that says is that people who use QuoteWizard are bad drivers. I wonder how many of them are in the "Male, 18-35" demographic, who can't get (cheap) insurance anywhere else because they are statistically risky drivers no matter what they drive. A real study would have considered that data...

"Putt" (what?!?) is on the list, but not gnarly? I question whether the creator was even alive during the 80s.

Villeneuve deserves an Oscar for directing, and probably screenplay, too. I've seen the previous movie and the mini-series, and this one actually holds my attention and for the first time I understand what the hell is going on (I only made it through the first few chapters of the book...

I’m happy to have Donna back, even for just three episodes. She’s officially moved up to being my all-time favorite companion (sorry, Sarah Jane, but I still love you in second place!). Catherine Tate has been amazing, especially in Wild Blue Yonder.

Lego Star Wars. This year Omega is one of the figures, which I'm very happy about because the only other way to complete my Bad Batch team would be to buy Cad Bane's ship. And she was in Day 1!

"Formulaic emotion jerkers" is code for "his movies made me cry and I'm angry about it". Also, "pretentious"? I have serious doubts that this person has even seen much of Robin's work, I'm thinking he just picked a topic to get the most Reddit votes.

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Two episodes in and I'm hooked. It's very character driven and I like the characters and the mystery they've built up around Monarch. The story jumps between the 1950s (when Monarch is founded) and just after 2014's Godzilla. They're all new characters except for...
