The Rock has "I can't lose" in his contracts while Bautista played Rabban "The Beast" Harkonnen, clearly someone's winning here and it isn't the Rock lmao

Dave Bautista says he was never interested in being ‘the next Rock’ “I just want to be a good fucking actor. A respected actor”

Jesus this is bleak. First we get actors apologizing for expressing frustration after the election & now the Apprentice is going to be buried for what? Fear of retribution? This is alarming. We should be alarmed.

So, Sebastian Stan won’t be doing Variety Actors on Actors, even though he was invited, because no other actor’s publicist wanted them to do it with him. This beyond reprehensible.

New History Essay: From 1898, Japanese immigration made Peru home to the 2nd largest Japanese population in South America. Their descendants would go on to play an outsized role in Peru’s economy, culture, and indeed, politics. This is the story of the Japanese Peruvians.

I doubt most Americans even know that US forces saw direct action against Chinese troops during the Korean War.

OP encounters an elevator with not just Open and Close Door options, but a mysterious third option: ペト (peto). Usually written ペット (petto) & used in apartments in Japan, it signifies to riders on other floors that a pet is present & might jump on them, etc.

Any other show that I knew ***THIS*** well, to the extent that I get EVERY SINGLE ONE of these jokes, would qualify me as a hardcore ultra-nerdy super fan. The Simpsons? Just our shared culture.


Wow, the other site actually feels like it has the juice - adding hundreds of followers easily there, and see tons of former mutuals. Feels a little bit like a homecoming.

A dementia drug based on a chemical discovered in an exotic type of snail was just invented. Studying the reproductive habits of insects has allowed us to increase crop yields. You think you’re making a good point but you don’t even have the capacity to realize how dumb you are.

DOGE, coming to a government building near you…

It is hard to overstate what a terrible decision this is. RFK Jr has no medical training. He is a hardcore antivaccine and misinformation peddler. The last time he meddled in a state’s medical affairs (Samoa), 83 children died of measles…

This video of Prime Minister Ishiba apparently falling asleep during today's Diet session has gone viral, receiving over 8 million views. It looks like former PM Aso, who backed a rival candidate in the LDP leadership election, is glaring at Ishiba.
