This is a fantastic bookend to The Substance. Both movies focus on aging entertainers at the end of their careers. While the Demi Moore movie is straight up horror, this was done in a verité style that'll land with 70s movie buffs.

If you have a low opinion of Pamela Anderson from her Baywatch and Playboy associations, and her documentary didn't already turn you around, watch this. She's spectacular.

Also Jamie Lee Curtis.

@WarnerCrocker "Let's just get this fucking over with."

Calling it Apple Intelligence made the company look dumb

@WarnerCrocker the irony is I wanted someone to completely dismantle the government bureaucracy, just not THIS MF

headline: Apple says its App Store blocked $9B+ in fraudulent transactions

me: Was the $1M Tim Cook gave Trump one of them

What if all life on earth is the result of bad vibe coding

@WarnerCrocker The company in question being Microsoft, which has a very well documented propensity for allowing utility to be overrun with crap. So at least it's on brand.

@WarnerCrocker I understand the performance and the subtext, but I hate that this is what LinkedIn has become.

I'm not sure how it ever fit into the pantheon of professional social media to begin with, it's always been a misfit.

And my past experiences with it as a work generator have left me harshly wanting.

I've long felt like my presence there is a necessary evil, like having Facebook and Twitter namespaces occupied, if fallow.

The whole body cringe I experience every time I see notifications from LinkedIn about someone else I know EXCITED to EXPLORE NEW OPPORTUNITIES

This past 24 hours of Apple zeitgeist summarized: Jony Ive is a capitalist dirtbag who used to design clever shit.

them: this will be a cicada year

me: plagues of insects are very on brand for 2025

Let's rename Alcatraz Mar-A-Lago West

the irony of the current situation is that I've wanted to see the entire US government apparatus dismantled my entire life, I just didn't want this shambolic horde doing it

Amazon should respond to the White House's latest provocation by painting the tariff numbers on the OUTSIDE of the box in giant red fucking letters with one of those stupid "I did that" stickers.

remember when we had the bandwidth to complain about stuff like Oxford commas and emdashes vs dashes?

my 2028 platform:

- taco trucks on every corner each tuesday
- other food trucks distribution schemes to be left to states to decide
- eat the rich
- bowling shoes covered by medicare
- which everyone gets

I guess today we found out how high a dead cat can bounce

@WarnerCrocker @waynedixon @jonnyevans And the shameful thing is that the forces in power will use this swell of panic hoarding as proof that its economic policies are sound.

"what fresh hell is this" has become a very tiresome way to greet each day but here we fucking are

@RickiTarr with apologies to gb shaw, never wrestle with a capitalist pig, you get dirty, and the pig profits
