Just came across a first season Castle episode. It had a fantastic supporting cast that made the show worth watching long after it veered into weird homeland security plots. What's your favorite show based on the supporting cast?14 Sep 2025 02:18 +0000at://did:plc:ioyo7t34udewthew3vmxf7k2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lyr7zzrk4c2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/vimsy.bsky.social/post/3lyr7vaotd22vThis explains so much about why David Brooks is still David Brooks [contains quote post or other embedded content]14 Sep 2025 02:15 +0000at://did:plc:ioyo7t34udewthew3vmxf7k2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lyr7vaotd22vhttps://bsky.app/profile/vimsy.bsky.social/post/3lyr5kypw2s2ijust as you imagined [contains quote post or other embedded content]14 Sep 2025 01:34 +0000at://did:plc:ioyo7t34udewthew3vmxf7k2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lyr5kypw2s2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/vimsy.bsky.social/post/3lyr5j442uk2iQuitting facebook in ~2018 and then abandoning my twitter account ~2022 were the best things I did for my mental health in a decade. There are things I miss from both.

The algorithms are going to give you more of the same, if they're not outright rigged. And too may news outlets are designed to get attention not inform. Plus it's too easy to live in a cultural bubble.

Kudos to James Gunn for coming up with so many ways for Superman to get his ass kicked. Clark being a little bit of a dick is not classic Superman, but I think it works. Rachel Brosnahan is a fantastic Lois.
