  • Some of the ones I remember, just because I’m old and involve some of my favorite movies.

    Lionel Barrymore (Mr. Potter from It’s a Wonderful Life) is Drew Barrymore’s Great Uncle.

    Debbie Reynolds (Singin’ in the Rain, God I love that movie) was Carrie Fisher’s mom.

    I think everyone knows Dakota Johnson’s parents, Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith.

    Shirley Maclaine (The Apartment and Two Mules for Sister Sara) is Warren Beatty’s sister.

    And some cool but not duo-celebrity relative facts.

    Ewan McGregor’s brother was a pilot in the RAF and his call sign was Obi-Two.

    The awesome Bogart movie, To Have and Have Not (“Put your lips together and blow”) was written by Hemingway and adapted into a screenplay by William Faulkner. Both considered in the top five of all time American authors. (Unless you think Steinbeck was better, then 6th (Which I don’t)). Faulkner and Hemingway were not particularly fond of each other, but then I don’t think there was a lot of love lost between Hemingway and his contemporaries.

    Fucking troll.

    Putin said he was gonna roll over Ukraine, and we all thought he was gonna roll over Ukraine.

    What has been shown is that Putin and his war machine is a fuckin bitch.

    Ukraine has been going toe to toe with Russia for fucking years now.

    Sure Ukraine has been propped up, but Russian has had to empty prisons and make deals with Iran and North Korea for military aid. Talk about the Axis of evil clowns.

    I have almost no respect for Russian leadership. Almost less respect than I do for my next president.












  • When that major drama unfolded with him getting booted then re-hired. It was super fucking obvious that it was all about the money, the data, and the salesmanship He is nothing but a fucking tech-bro. Part Theranos, part Musk, part SBF, part (whatever that pharma asshat was), and all fucking douchebag.

    AI is fucking snake oil and an excuse to scrape every bit of data like it’s collecting every skin cell dropping off of you.
