If I understand the trailer correctly, in this scene the mom is telling young Steve Gutenberg that his father just became in POW in the Vietnam War. So, yeah... 🤷

I consider myself a very tolerant woman, able to accept and even value cultural practices and behaviors that I am not initially familiar with. There are many ways to be.
But damnit, y'all, lavalier mics are supposed to go on your *lapel!* Stop holding them in front of your mouth in videos!

120 MINUTES was an absolute oasis in pre-internet pop culture. So many bands that you could ONLY find there (TV-wise) became ubiquitous online later (and relatively recently). A pioneer. consequence.net/2026/07/dave...

My 2026 has been a divorce-shaped Stygian nightmare of housing insecurity, drifting between Airbnbs, couchsurfing + housesitting. But the goddess just blessed me with my own tiny apartment! I need to move/furnish it for myself + kid almost from scratch: a humble call for help if you can to do so!

Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal
Our games industry is people. Our studios are people. Our teams people, our games by people for people. Our games are made by people, in groups of people, in teams of people, making people things for people.
The magic is people, and the people deserve so much better than all this. I am so sorry.

Yes, but only because my son is an agent of chaos and periodically attempts to use it for fun.
it obviously blended into the background after a while.
my question now- if there was a fire where you are right now- would you know where to find a fire extinguisher.

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Looked into this more and I think they might have made them to keep up morale for the cast and crew? The shoot started in late March 1983 and didn't finish until early February 1984, so maybe they made these as gifts at the beginning of 1984 to be like "we're almost there, it will be worth it"
Looks like something they had made up as promotional items for David Lynch's Dune, but I'm not sure about the Happy New Year part

Oof.
Scott Pelley and Sharyn Alfonsi absolutely leveled Bari Weiss at an emergency 60 Minutes staff meeting today.

I'm pretty sure this is the first time one of my film restorations has shown up on RiffTrax. It's all been worth it.

I am so absolutely lost by all the agreement to this. I was born in 1979 and was absolutely raised with technology from the word go. We had an inexpensive Commodore computer when I was 3, my suburban New Jersey public school taught us Logo programming in 1st grade on an Apple II,

What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor
