200000 dead as Trump vilifies science prioritizes politics

NEW YORK (AP) — “I did the best I could,” President Donald Trump said. Huddled with aides in the West Wing last week, his eyes fixed on Fox News, Trump wasn’t talking about how he had led…

Master and Commander The Far Side of the World

Directed by Peter Weir. With Russell Crowe, Paul Bettany, Billy Boyd, James D’Arcy. During the Napoleonic Wars, a brash British captain pushes his ship and crew to their limits in pursuit of a formidable French war vessel around South America.

I had somehow managed to completely miss this when it came out and only saw it today because I had literally nothing else to watch.

It’s a fine film, not up my alley, but still a fantastic story with amazing boat adventures.

Automation

Directed by Garo Setian. With Elissa Dowling, Sadie Katz, Parry Shen, Graham Skipper. A workplace robot, AUTO, transforms into a killing machine when he discovers he will be replaced by a more efficient model. AUTO fears being terminated and will stop at nothing to prevent his own destruction. The human employees must band together to stop him before it’s too late.

Extremely low budget, but there’s plenty of b-grade cheesiness here to love.

IT’S NOT AN ACT

American Factory

Directed by Steven Bognar, Julia Reichert. With Junming ‘Jimmy’ Wang, Robert Allen, Sherrod Brown, Dave Burrows. In post-industrial Ohio, a Chinese billionaire opens a factory in an abandoned General Motors plant, hiring two thousand Americans. Early days of hope and optimism give way to setbacks as high-tech China clashes with working-class America.

Absolutely horrifying to hear Chinese executives complain about how American workers won’t work weekends and want to see their families. Also horrifying to see that kind of behavior is acceptable and straight up expected from their employees in mainland China.

QQ: if you have a job that you’re not permitted to leave from, is that a job or slavery? Is that was American companies are competing against?

Legends of Tomorrow Anthology

It’s four powerhouse tales in one colossal comic, as some of comics’ most legendary talents launch new tales of Firestorm, Metamorpho, Metal Men and Sugar and Spike—that’s right, Sugar and Spike!

Two reason to pick this up:

1 – it sorta features one of the characters from the TV show of the same name.
2 – Sugar & Spike, the goofy / chibi characters from the 50’s are reimagined as hard boiled detectives that track down unique threats to superheroes.

The Metal Men and Firestorm stories are what you would expect from those character, nothing too exciting, but as I mentioned above, the S&S story is fantastic and interesting, and the Metamorpho is a ‘man out of place’ type of story that mostly takes place on another planet, which is great.

If you can find this for free, I’d say check it out. I got it for nearly free in a $0.25 bin at a local comic shop.
