Melville proudly insisting that whales are fish, and nothing but fish, to centuries of readers.

TIL Spider-Man briefly adopted a stray dog named Sandwich. But since the life of Peter Parker must be endless misery and isolation per Marvel exec orders (no wife, no kids, no dog), Aunt May wouldn’t let him keep Sandwich, and called animal patrol. Anyway, my morning is ruined.

Fire Emblem trad wife gun chick is a worrying sign of a conservative cultural victory… If any of the red haired boys drives a Chevy we know it’s GG.

I’ll be honest, I can’t follow the new Ghost in the Shell anime at all, but I forgive it because the Fuchikomas love catgirl merchants.

Remember these guys? Lol.

I like this website because I can post in the comments of these posts a short history of the German Coast slave rebellion or the NY Shakespeare Riots and nobody ever tells me to go away or stick to the topic at hand.

My pan overfloweth with paella.

Whatever is going on with Lex and Deathstroke on My Adventures with Superman is sure reading a lot like Clark and Lex’s deep soulful-searching convos at the end of every Smallville episode. Do we have a word for this?

“Oops, I accidentally blew up the Moon, guys.”

Rewatching Batman Begins and one observation is this movie rules in spite of some truly skin crawling dialog choices: “You always fear what you don’t understand.” Nolan has always been doing ages of bronze. The other one is that the League of Shadows makes no sense. What are you people on?

I have no idea how much money there is in Cat-based Sudoku games but it must be a lot since I've gotten like 5,000 ads for whatever this game is in just the past week alone. Sports gambling isn't spending this much for my money.

Acolytes of Magneto? Where do I sign up.

Reading Moby Dick, first time, maybe too much phrenology, have you heard about this Jonah guy? But the biggest thing, Ishmael and Queequeg, sleeping together: Ishmael: “Hey, we’re roommates, best buddies!” Queequeg: “No, you’re my wife.”

90s hippie music is better than 60s hippie music.

So what’s out this weekend that isn’t Spider-Man? Toy Story 5, Moana, this is like a plague of bland recycled Disney. Oh good, Hadestown pro-shot is still in theaters, thank god…

Anno no, Annoooooooooooo.

These words can’t scare me because I don’t know what any of them mean.

So listened to like… six versions of Falling Slowly in the last hour. Live, the original film, West End, Broadway, one that was recorded last year… probably not done either.

I don’t buy 90% reviews for this new Spider-Man, all of these Tom Holland movies have felt pointless. These is 9 out of 10 critics agree “eh, its good enough”. Holland’s movies all got good reviews, I am not fooled. They looked like shit, they were bland, unambitious, this is one of those.

I know we just did Odyssey discourse yesterday but hey, why not read historical context from somebody who likes what Nolan does?
