The latter and what a disaster it was considered.

The Simpsons, decades ago, had their own thoughts.

Let’s just hope it goes better than the last Rick and Morty spinoff.

If you're awake at 5am and watching TV, something has gone wrong. Probably involving some sort of intoxicating substance.

Caught up with Hell’s Paradise, Fire Force S3, and Jujutsu Kaisen.

Tubi pays them a fee. YouTube would be just the ad revenue.

If the goal is maximum profit from the library, damn exclusivity, sending the library to Tubi is probably the best case scenario. After all, you can’t argue with free.

Baby back ribs, coleslaw, and homemade cornbread.

This is just getting silly.

Tacos.

And now Prime Video has made it official: They want to be an anime destination, including taking the new Ghost in the Shell. https://deadline.com/2026/02/prime-video-anime-global-2026-1236717084/

If there’s a recurring theme in this season, well, two themes, they are frustrations and nostalgia. Everyone pines for something more familiar, more known but there’s no going back to that, no matter how much they want to. And that’s frustrating for just about everyone, trying to be something familiar but clearly failing. Genndy’s frustrations are in every episode, his creative frustrations at having to reheat the nachos, and his personal frustrations at not being allowed to move forward with his ideas being turned down by Sony at every single turn while they make hundreds of millions, if not billions off of Japanese creatives who face no such stiff-arming.

If it's any consolation to Genndy (doubtful) Sony seems to be striking down a lot of personal passion projects from animation creatives. This, while their "animals play basketball film" is set for a record opening for domestic animation. So congratulations Genndy. It looks like a combination of "GOAT" and the dog balls movie may have turned Sony off to original animation for a very long time.

That brawl during lunch reminded me of talking with my cousins a few weeks back and how they kind of expected some weird street fighting stories about me. I pointed out the only one that came to mind was some rando on the subway pushing me, trying to start a fight, but all I did was stare at him like he said “Hello Mr. Thompson.” He looked upset I wasn’t doing anything and walked off. Getting in a street fight would suck. Even if you win, you still gotta talk to the cops and convince them that the other guy started it. No thanks. I don’t need that stress.

There was a brawl inside the Chipotle by work and people were just ignoring it, even though blood is on the floor. That is how desensitized New Yorkers are. “Just ignore it and it will go away.”

Years working in the same place has made me incredibly numb to introductions from commissioners. “Am I getting a raise? No? Fuck you.” I don’t give two shits about your personal details, give me more money or don’t waste my time.

One Piece and Styx. A combination no one expected till now.

And that seals it.

Some fan got on the field, and his ass is getting thrown out. Who the hell pays all that money just to do that?

And Barner, Barner, scores the first and maybe last touchdown of the game.

I think if no one scores a touchdown, FanDuel defaults and has to give everyone who bet on the bonus bet a share of the $6 million. Which probably means I get…$12 to bet on the next UFC card.

And here’s the halftime show, with a lot of confused white people in the audience. This whole performance seems designed to piss off certain people.

They picked one hell of a time to do it. It didn’t help T-Mobile had the actual Backstreet Boys, who at this point are fully aware they’re a nostalgia act and run with it to the end zone.
