Clint Eastwood Plans to Direct New Movie at 95, Shades ‘Era of Remakes and Franchises’: ‘Do Something New or Stay at Home’

  • The guy that talked to an empty chair has thoughts.

    • Three children zip-tied at the San Antonio immigration court, ages 9-12

  • This is so fucked.

    • Cheese is always good

  • As someone that had to stop themselves from eating an entire tub of jalapeno pimento cheese with cheddar cheese Doritos earlier today, I can confirm.

    • Russell Brand pleads not guilty to charges of rape and sexual assault

  • The guy that dressed up as Osama bin Laden on TV after 9/11 did other bad things? Gasp.

    • Nvidia CEO says Trump's tariff plan is 'utterly visionary'

  • This guy?

    • Permanently Deleted

  • What does it feel like to spend your pension/401k/IRA money? I'm 45 and although I've always been good at saving up for retirement, I feel like I'm never going to get to spend it.

    • Bernie Sanders blames election loss on Kamala Harris choosing billionaires over the working class

  • I'm so sick of winning.

    • Bring back real social consequences for politically affiliating with a fascist

  • The number of times college protesters have been wrong: 0.

    • boot: "you are in emergency mode"

  • As someone that has run Linux as my primary desktop OS since 1998, I can confirm this as 100% accurate.

    • Prototype of RTX 5090 Appears With Four 16-Pin Power Connectors, Capable of Delivering 2,400W

  • I'm not trying to be a 1-upper, but you need to also include the power the computer and CPU use as well. Not to mention the age of the outlet and how many times a plug has been inserted/removed from it. The contact resistance can be pretty bad depending on how old the outlet is.

  • Good luck plugging that into an outlet without tripping a fuse under load.

    • 'Duck Dynasty' patriarch and conservative cultural icon Phil Robertson dies

  • Rest in piss, asshole.

    • New Cars Don't All Come With Dipsticks Anymore, Here's Why

  • My wife has a 2016 Honda Odyssey, and having grown up working on cars because my dad was a mechanic, I was shocked to learn that there is no transmission fluid dip stick. It's considered a closed system and never needs to have the fluid changed, allegedly.

    • New Cars Don't All Come With Dipsticks Anymore, Here's Why

  • PEBKAC.

    • Imagine

  • I don't disagree. The world liberal is wasted on the Democratic party. They're not liberal. They're just the only valid opposition to the Nazis. Even if their policies are conservative.

    • The USA spends $15k/student annually which is 30% higher than the global median. Why do U.S. schools have "fundraisers" where kids are incentivized to sell stuff to people?

  • Capitalism.

    • Imagine

  • I am so sick of the word conservative. It's not conservative, it's fucking regressive. It's back sliding our society into a world that never really existed in the first place.

    • Five Stars

  • What's up with that shifter knob?

    • I know they're lying about his cognitive tests

  • Like AI, it's not just that he's dumb, he's confidently dumb.

    • ‘Sesame Street’ Saved, Inks New Streaming Deal With Netflix

  • I promise Netflix cancels this after the 2nd season.

    Is everything the worst?

    I'm 43, almost 44, years old and went through a bought of alcoholism during the early part of the pandemic. I went through treatment and have been fine since. However, I can't help but feel that all the news in the last few months is just the worst. Between the AI bullshit, the wars, the effects of capitalism, and the political situation in general it's just the worst. Is it just me or have other folks noticed the same trend?

    Edit: I should have also mentioned the enshitification of everything tech related.

    Edit 2: Thanks for all the thoughtful replies. For some more context, yes I'm American and live in a state that's about to ban the wearing of masks in public. I haven't had a drink in over year and have been in therapy for 3 years. I don't watch any news sources and rarely read media websites. But yet, that information seeps into my life somehow. I donate blood, I make charitable donations, and try to live a good life. I have 2 amazing kids and a great wife. It's just hard to not
