That last episode of Alien: Earth was a really good Alien movie.

Joe "Stinky" Besser allegedly had concerns about shots. Apparently, they "gave him such a pinch," that he recommended avoiding them entirely. And, THEN, Besser was replaced by "Curly Joe." Coincidence? Or conspiracy? God help us, in the future.

Life for Palestinians in Gaza has gotten worse under Trump, not better. So where are Jill Stein and Cornel West now? They aren’t leading protests in DC outside the White House, no rallies. Almost like the whole 2024 thing was just performative.

Trump is dead? Possible clue: If you play the pee tape backwards, he says "turn me on bed pan."

There's a rumor floating around that Trump is dead, but I checked the New York Times website and there's no mention of it, so I guess maybe it's true?

It didn't quite come together for me, but there were things about it that I liked. At least it was trying to do something different, whereas I thought Brave New World was just a rehash of a rehash of a rehash.
