And some really great facial prosthetics!

it does seem important to point out that Unification is not AI and there is no deepfake :-I. it's just actors and some CGI.

There was a reviewer or commenter who said "I always keep track of how many mistakes the protagonist makes and after three, I stop reading the story and never look back".

I think about that person pretty frequently. We read for our own enjoyment, and therefore there's no wrong way to read a book so long as you're enjoying yourself, but ... maybe I don't actually believe that. Maybe there are wrong ways to read a book, and this guy found one.

I just can’t get over that Spock didn’t die alone

So many sad postings about how Spock had to spend his final years in a not-quite-right universe, watching younger versions of himself and his friends live on while he can’t be apart of it, can’t ever see his friends again. Kirk is alive and yet totally unreachable.

But against all odds! There’s Jim! His Jim!! Through time and space just to find him again. To be by eachother’s side again. His wayward sun finally dawned.

God, I hope they get the Knowledge Fight guys involved. JorDan needs that desk!

The onion buying Infowars is the best possible scenario. They actually understand how to report on alex, and they'll know what to do with his assets.

YALL THE ONION BOUGHT INFO WARS IN THE BANKRUPTCY AUCTION

[astla-ever]

While the Onion buying InfoWars is indeed extremely funny, very few of the posts I've seen commenting on the sale have mentioned that the families of the Sandy Hook victims apparently agreed to voluntarily reduce their lawsuit payout as part of a deal to ensure that the Onion would acquire InfoWars wholesale, rather than having the company broken up and auctioned off piecemeal, as the latter course could potentially have allowed some of those pieces to end up back in the hands of Alex Jones' cronies.

Like, yes, it is in fact very funny that InfoWars is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Onion, but the real props go out to the Sandy Hook families who saw the opportunity and willingly gave up the additional millions of dollars that could have been realised by stripping InfoWars for parts in order to make that happen.

(EDIT: Fixed a sentence incorrectly suggesting that Clickhole is still affiliated with the Onion – it totally slipped my mind that they'd sold it back in 2020.)

I have never read a more excellent article
