  1. I was expecting more from #TheBadGuys2. Isn’t bad by any means, but it feels lacking about something.

    The first one had a #UnJeNeSaisQuoi that it’s indescribable about how fresh and well paced felt.
    That’s not present on this one, I feel that it drags a lot.

    Enjoyable, just not of those #movies that I’ll give a rewatch.

  4. Mike Reid, who served as chief science officer for the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, known as PEPFAR, has quit the position because the State Department is considering withholding assistance from people with HIV in Zambia to push the country into signing a favorable ⁠critical-minerals deal with the U.S. (hand to ear as if getting an update) I’m now hearing: the United States is the bad guys.

  6. #Palantir Posts #BondVillain #Manifesto On X

    Palantir has posted to X a summary of CEO #AlexKarp & Nicholas W. Zamiska's 2025 book, The #TechnologicalRepublic , which reads like a utopian idealist doodled on a Bond villain's whiteboard. While the post makes some decent points, it also highlights the Big-AI attitude that the #AI #surveillance state is in fact a good thing, & strongly implies that the Good Guys need to do #warcrimes before the #BadGuys get around to it.

    Together with that snow leopard woman that looks like she can crush watermelons with her thighs, it looks like this movie will have many fans.^^

  13. A quotation from Bill Watterson

    CALVIN: I’ve noticed that comic book superheroes usually fight evil maniacs with grandiose plans to destroy the world. Why don’t superheroes go after more subtle, realistic bad guys?
     
    HOBBES: Yeah, the superhero could attend council meetings and write letters to the editor, and stuff.
     
    CALVIN: Hmmm … I think I see the problem.
     
    HOBBES: “Quick! To the Bat-Fax!”

  14. GEO Group.

    If your business is staffing "for-profit" prisons and ICE internment camps, business is very, very good under the new administration.

    "GEO expects to provide support services for ICE at the Facility under a multi-year contract that would be expected to generate in excess of $70 million in annualized revenues in the first full year of operations."

    Know who these companies are. Don't let them get rich in the shadows of political policy.

  15. Good Vs. Evil

    Hi everyone! I hope you’re all well. Today, I am exploring why we seem to be drawn again and again to the theme of good vs. evil. Let’s get to it!

    The Universal Appeal of Good Vs Evil

    The more books and films I consume, the more I wonder why human beings find the duality of good and evil so compelling. Seriously — think about how it shows up in nearly every culture. Whether it’s ancient Greek mythology (Zeus vs the Titans) or modern storytelling (Harry Potter vs Voldemort), this battle is always there.

    Here are three reasons that might help to explain why:

    1 It’s Innately Relatable
    Deep down, we all like to root for someone — or something. Good versus evil gives us clear stakes to invest in. We want Batman to defeat the Joker and the rest of Gotham’s nasties. We cheer on Aslan and the Narnians in their fight against the White Witch in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe because we become invested; it feels like we’re fighting, too.

    It mirrors an internal conflict we grapple with daily. Do I take the high road, or do I snap at that annoyingly loud coworker or neighbour? Stories exploring the theme of good and evil resonate because they reflect our own moral dilemmas, even in heightened, fantastical ways.

    2 It’s Simple yet Versatile
    Another reason good and evil reign supreme is its adaptability. It can be a straightforward backdrop — like cowboys (good guys) against outlaws (bad guys) in old-school Westerns. Or, it can become a deep and philosophical discussion — think of Gregory Maguire’s novel Wicked, which recounts the life and times of the Wicked Witch of the West and asks us,“What really is good? And what really is evil?”

    3 It’s Universally Human
    As we established at the start, there’s no culture, era or corner of the globe where you won’t find stories of moral conflict. From ancient tales like Pandora’s Box to modern dramas like Breaking Bad, this theme is part of our collective human storytelling DNA.

    Overall, Fiction gives us a playground to explore simple conflicts safely — to question motives, empathize with flawed characters, and think deeply about what it means to do the right thing or, in some circumstances, what it might mean to do the wrong thing but for the right reasons.

    If this theme fascinates you as much as it does me, I’d love to hear about your favourite “good vs evil” stories and characters in the comments below. Whether it’s a guilty pleasure movie, an obscure indie book, or a bestselling graphic novel, let me know why those stories resonate so much!

    And if you’re a writer working on something that explores this theme, remember — it’s not about sticking to formulas but about creating something that feels true to the human experience. Readers will always love a character who, against all odds, fights back against the darkness with their innate or learned “goodness” — even if that darkness comes from within themselves.”

    Thank you, as ever, for reading today’s post. It means a lot!

    Until next time,

    George

  16. Free Fiction Monday: Advisors At Naptime

    Carol wants a nap. Carol needs a nap. And no one will let her have one because she’s important. She’s important because the grown-ups believe she’s an average five-year-old. Average five-year-olds have uses for bad guys who want to conquer the world. Only no one realizes that Carol…

  17. Pro writing tip:

    Be careful not refer to bad people as "viscous."

    While it's true that some villains may well resemble walking human syrup, I'm pretty sure that what you actually mean is "vicious."

  19. "Wow I can't believe #NorthKoreans are so #brainwashed by their #propaganda. Anyways, did you see that new #hollywood action flick about great and brave #american individuals who stop the #badguys, who's ideas aren't necessarily bad, but they want to go "too far" when solving a social issue?"

  20. We can't get rid of the bad guys, because it always ends up being the bad guys who decide who we're getting rid of.
