"Residents burn an Ebola treatment center in DR Congo as anger grows over the outbreak"

noreply@blogger.com (John) — Sat, 23 May 2026 05:31:16 +0000

@dailymail
Police fired warning shots and tear gas in the Congolese town of Rwampara after protesters stormed an Ebola treatment centre and set fire to medical tents during clashes over the burial of a suspected victim. Witnesses said tensions escalated after relatives disputed the cause of death and demanded the body be returned to the family. The unrest comes as health officials race to contain a growing Ebola outbreak in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, with suspected cases and deaths continuing to rise. #ebola #news #congo #health

Really fun series about a milquetoast mayor realizing his quaint island (it could be the next Martha's Vineyard!) is absolutely overflowing with ghosts and monsters and serial killer ghost monsters (Hiro Murai has directed so many of my favorite shows). From an interview with creator:

There's a scene [in Weapons] where - yeah. When - the scene when she's sleeping in the car, and the audience sees the woman coming out of the house, walking strangely to the car, and then you just hear the back seat open. I think that's the - it's terrifying, but I think that's the funniest thing in the entire world.

...

MARTÍNEZ: What's the writing room like? 'Cause I'm wondering with a series like this that has horror, it has suspense, it has mystery and, obviously, lots of laughs, too, are there some writers that are better at one part of that?

DIPPOLD: You know, I'm so glad you asked that because that was one of the more challenging things that ended up being the most rewarding. I had this great writers' room. There's seven other writers. Some of them came from more mythology-heavy shows like "WandaVision." And then I had, you know, a couple of old-time friends in comedies that - some of the best comedy writers I know from, like, you know, "SNL." One was from "Key & Peele." And so at first, that was a challenge, to sort of navigate the room and try to tell one cohesive story. What was very rewarding was by the end, the mythology writers were pitching jokes that were hilarious, and they all knew the show. And the comedy writers were passionately, heatedly debating and arguing for things on the mythology. And it was very fun to see that come together.

From an interview with Kate O'Flynn:

AVC: Was there something you were able to improv in or have any favorite scenes from the episode?

KO: It was a late addition, but I loved this bit in episode one where she’s talking to Shep in the hospital room, and Tom walks in and says something about them being able to listen to you when they’re in a coma, so Patricia responds by saying, “I apologize for wasting his time.” That was a last minute throw-in line. There’s also a scene at the start of episode seven that we have to play it straight, but it was impossible to get through for me.

In episode four, I loved the physical stuff, like the final scene on the beach where they’re all walking into the water. It looked spectacular in person. I felt like a kid in the playground pretending to save everybody.

Terrific new Pablo Torre podcast about the techniques used by a popular "mentalist"

noreply@blogger.com (John) — Thu, 21 May 2026 04:53:49 +0000

He was the person scheduled to perform at this year's White House Correspondents' dinner instead of a comic--and apparently makes frequent appearances on major podcasts and tv shows.

Pablos's latest podcast goes into detail revealing how some of his popular tricks work, and asks whether the techniques stray from the common definition of magic tricks to outright fraud. (Torre's guest previously posted a much longer expose that's supposedly good.)

(The Columbo episodes about a mentalist and magician are good fun, and were great inoculation against falling for such nonsense.)

If you’re looking for a sign from God as to whether hanging out with the richest man on Earth is right for you, pay attention when he sends you not one plague, but two.

A friend did one of Herzog's classes. You were vetted for suitability, as the class had about twenty or so places.

When Herzog called him up to talk about his resume, he admitted he'd made it all up just to get enrolled. Herzog LOVED this! https://t.co/c6hSo9o4Ff

Why are the fast food apps so bad at this?

one of my kids’ favorite restaurants is a conveyor belt sushi place where the hot entrees arrive on little robots that toodle around the restaurant saying “here comes the robot, pretty and smart :)” honestly, as self affirmations go, I have heard worse

Nostalgia is a powerful force, that's why you have to trap it in the Wheel of Pain from Conan the Barbarian (1982) and make it do something else for you

@brianmethehorizon Malinois are built for jumps like this and he wasn't injured. He's done this loads but we never believed that this is how he was escaping until I seen it first hand when I was fixing the garden side door.

Somewhere in San Francisco, buried one foot underground, rests a treasure chest filled with 10,000 $1 coins

noreply@blogger.com (John) — Tue, 19 May 2026 20:00:52 +0000

Reddit (posted three weeks ago):

One year ago we announced here that we buried a $10,000 treasure chest. Many hunters went searching and it was found in just 11 hours.
We did it again. It's located within 7 miles of San Francisco city hall, weighs more than 150 pounds, and is buried one foot deep.
Hopefully this one takes a little longer than 11 hours.
Edit: Update: The treasure is NOT on Angel Island or in Francisco Park.
Why are we saying this? Civic duty, mostly.

NYT:

[A student], 16, was sitting in his high school history class when his dad texted him a link to the hunt with two words: “It’s on!”
Soon, he had skipped school and was at the old U.S. Mint building at Fifth and Mission Streets, squirreling through a hole in the wrought iron fence and digging in the garden area. But a barefoot woman injecting herself with a hypodermic needle on the steps yelled that he was causing a disturbance, and he reconsidered.

Venomous review of The Mandalorian and Grogu

noreply@blogger.com (John) — Tue, 19 May 2026 16:16:33 +0000

Bilge Ebiri for Vulture:

Rotta’s voice allegedly belongs to The Bear star Jeremy Allen White. I say “allegedly” because not only does his voice not sound like White’s (it has clearly been processed to sound slower and lower), it also retains none of the actor’s characteristically haunted delivery, thus rendering the casting pointless. Between the Mandalorian’s stiffness and Rotta’s torpor, we may wonder why we ourselves are supposed to care about anything that’s happening onscreen.

And another:

The ugliest expensive movie I have ever seen

The Disney+ opening montages where they only show helmeted or robotic figures are really loathsome.
