    I hope Boeing didn't use the same guys who designed and assembled their planes to build that rocket that is scheduled to launch today with actual astronauts on board.

    I think The Flash movie could have not been an abject commercial failure if they hadn't had that downer ending. Instead, they could have had him recruit Cavill, WW, Nic Cage Superman, Brandon Routh...

    That hurts. He WAS King Theoden, and played him as a king who was very decent and good, even in a cast filled with characters of that description. RIP to him.

    Since I wasn't going to sit through a whole thing on Bush, I'll grant you that. But the fact remains that Biden did that, and he needs to A) stop doing things like that, and B) apologize to Japan...

    I wish Biden hadn't insulted Japan and India like that. He'd better find a way to apologize; the Japanese at least seem upset. I thought we were well done with that when Trump got deep sixed, but...

    Didn't they do a similar story in the Arrowverse show Supergirl? If so, this seems a bit...unoriginal.

    The Supergirl: Candor arc had a story hinted at, but never done. It involved Power Girl fighting Saturn Queen and her henchmen in a war through time for the soul of Supergirl, or somesuch. PG, who...

    It is of course a bit of coping. Some things are quite horrific, and need to be approached with a bit of lightness to get your mind around their awfulness. And there is so much terrible local news,...

    Horrific. But in nicer Iran news, they've offered our campus protesters scholarships to study in Iran! How nice of them! I think the protesters should take them up on the offer, and see how much...

    Good for her, she's managed to get nearly everyone to hate her with a passion! That takes real talent! Also, it takes real stupidity, a real psychotic nature, and real viciousness.

    Loved his version of the Peter Gunn theme. The original BTW, the Henry Mancini version, had John Williams on piano. Eddy's guitar on his version was sublime as always. That twang...so great. RIP...

    That quake which I just felt was maybe a 4.5? Feels like it was. Ha! It was a 4.1 centered near a place called Corona. Got my dog Sam from a shelter there.

    They are also holding signs reading things like "Final Solution", which probably refers to something IMO, chanting Hamas slogans, "River to the Sea" stuff...
