Who cares what MAGA adherents believe... you don't try to get the hard-core, brainwashed followers, they've already committed themselves. However, the undecided voter will see it as the GOP floundering, unable to govern.
Please shut the government down... please, please, please... while your party controls a mere one half of one of a branch of the government, please shut the government down during an election cycle. Please, please, please do it.
So glad the Europeans finally broke Apple and their ridiculous charger shenanigans. A coworker just got a new iPhone and asked me if I had an iPhone charger, I told them no all Ive got is USB C. They said they didn't know what they had and showed me the bottom of their phone and, sure enough, it's USB C. They had no idea that only Apple kept making their own charge connector and that basically everyone else had settled on one charger/data port like two or three standards ago.
Well, they can, but the cost will get more volatile... super oversimplified, it's the difference between drinking at home booze you bought at wholesale prices and keeping a running tab with a local bar/pub. You'll be subject to the bar and any price changes they (read: the currency markets) want to make.
I think what made that script work was they just threw everything at the wall and if it stuck it stuck and, if not, they moved along. There's like three spoken jokes and two sight gags per every five minutes of film; some of it hit, some of it didn't. Some of it was topical, especially concerning the films they were lampooning, the dramatic "Airport" series. Like the PA announcements in the airport scenes about abortion, that was in "Airplane" because there was a whole subplot about abortion in "Airport." In the dramatic film, it was as if the writers wanted to beat you over the head about abortion, so that specific joke in Airplane lands differently if you've seen and are a fan of the Airport series. Still... it's a real testiment to the skill of the screen writers that modern audiences, many who have never even heard of "Airport" still find "Airplane" hilarious.
I have friends who's loved ones are in the GOP death cult, they ask "what's the point of all this immigrant and abortion stuff, they used to not care about this at all"
I simply reply: "The cruelty is the point. DJT isn't promising to fix anything really, he's promising to hurt the right people."
You couldn't make Titanic today because it wouldn't be believable... Leonardo Decaprio dating a woman his own age? Preposterous!
No, that's ballot. The balut is the person who is paid to park cars at hotels and fancy restaurants.
This... JMG is the best. Him and Isaac Arthur...
Literally been screaming this since her time as SoS... Hill-Dawg should have run in NY's bluest blueberry of a US House district and then taken the reigns from Pelosi in 2022. She's masterful at running the inner party show... she got that "do it or I'll burn your house down" energy so few people have (liken to LBJ, Pelosi, Cave Johnson, etc).
LDS Church in 2079: "Okay, okay, God is trans actually."
JFC. They literally stood there while he struggled. What the actual fuck?
Charlie is the one where you can't tell if he's got a giant head, a tiny face, or both.
Dude... he has a fucking Dreamcast? Tim Walz is the dad I never had.
Jesus, my Moto G from 2022 has that feature... Apple is a bunch of aasholes.
I'm okay with ads (just like on broadcast TV), but only if I'm not paying for the streaming/VOD service (just like on broadcast TV). Like, I'm okay with ads on a YouTube video, but I got rid of Netflix when they cancelled a series I liked and, now that they've started talking about adding ads, I'll probably not go back.
American comedian Ron White frequently tells a story about how his van was damaged in a comedic way by the technicians at a Sears Automotive Center in Savannah, GA. This week, that Sears Automotive Center is being torn down. While the shopping mall that former Sears location is a part of is otherwise doing well, the Sears has been closed for years. The department store end-cap building and the car service center in its out-parcel property are being demolished to make way for the development of a new apartment complex.
A link to Ron preforming the story for a live audience.

All pictures in the listing seem to be from before the ship's "Margaritaville" makeover, but it's definitely the same boat. The rest of that class has been retired and sent to the breakers.
In 2023, it was featured in YouTuber Bright Sun Travels cruise video "North America's Worst Cruise Ship." The ship, named the "Margaritaville At Sea Paradise" (at the time of that review), had been purchased second hand and operated by a company called Margaritaville At Sea Cruises (formerly Celebration Cruiseline). All of the Margaritaville and Jimmy Buffett branding was a licensing deal the company made with Buffett's food service and vacations empire.
The ship was originally launched in 1991 as the Costa Classica for the Costa Cruises company of Italy (the same one of the Costa Concordia disaster infamy).
So, who wants to buy a cruise ship? Not gonna lie to you all... she's got some problems, not least of which is the Jimmy Buffett theming.
