  • That was the perfect opportunity to teach the first step of The Scientific Method. The next step was the Hypothesis - what do you think will happen, based on the scientific knowledge you already have?

    Then you have to Plan The Experiment, which in this case, would probably really energize the students’ brain power. They’ll LOVE figuring out this experiment. I would bet that EVERY student would be engaged in this one.

    It’s the Doing The Experiment that might be problematic, and end up with the teacher explaining themselves to the School Board: “All I can say is, it seemed like a good idea at the time. I guess you had to be there.”



  • Hes about my favorite contempoarary actor, I will watch ANYTHING he is in.

    Which is why I watched that godawful dramedy sit-com nonsense he had for a couple of seasons. I don’t even remember the name, and I cant even be bothered to Google it. I get it, he wanted to nail a hit TV series for 5 or 6 seasons, and collect fat royalty checks for the rest of his life, but that show was a dog, from start to finish. A huge waste of his prodigious talents.

    I’m still a fan, though. My favorite of his roles might be the foppish vice principle on Vice Principals. He was hilarious in it, and I loved when he’d argue with his mother-in-law in Korean. I always wondered if he was hollering real Korean, or just making it up. I suspect it was real.



  • I just watched an interesting movie called “The World, The Flesh, and The Devil,” from 1959, starring Harry Belafonte. It is thought to be the first post-nuclear holocaust film, where Belafonte is trapped in a mine for a few days, and when he digs his way out, the entire world has been wiped out by a nuclear holocaust.

    It’s not the greatest movie ever, with some occasional weak writing, and questionable acting, but it was still an entertaining watch just the same. One of those 6/10 movies that is somehow still compelling.




  • That really sucks. One of the best things about Max was that they had loads of classic Looney Toons cartoons. The new stuff is as lame as most contemporary cartoons.

    After trying to turn him on to the old Looney Tunes and Merry Melodies shorts for his entire life, my 25 year old son finally discovered them recently, and he’d been going through them, watching a few whenever he had a few free minutes, and didnt have anything else to watch. I like to watch a couple before watching a movie, like the old theater days.




  • You can thank Reddit for your new success, and I hope it continues. I was a 12 year member, with nearly a million Karma, and i was perma-banned for an opinion that I had stated numerous times with no problem. After the election, the same opinion got me permanently banned.

    That was their excuse anyway. In reality, Im sure it was 12 years of resistance posts against the rising treason, corruption, and oppression of the Republican/MAGA/Nazi party. Now they are deleting any mention of Luigi, even in legit Mario Bros/Videogame discussions, and banning people just for upvoting. They are kicking out old, loyal, active members, just for using Reddit for what it was supposed to be used for. Kind of like what the FBI is doing to their agents who investigated HitlerPig’s corruption and treason. Its the MAGA way, and Reddit is on board.

    I wondered why Reddit would have so obviously made the choice to voluntarily join the Conservative Propaganda Machine, then I saw that Ohanion wants to buy TikTok. So does Zuckerfuck, and probably a lot more (Bezos? Musk?). They all know that it will be HitlerPig who will choose, and he will choose the guy who smooched his ass the most, and paid the biggest bribe. So turning Reddit into a MAGA propaganda mouthpiece was Ohanion’s show of good faith.

    I hope Reddit goes the way of Digg, and Lemmy takes over. The decentralization seems like a massive improvement over Reddit.
