Your Daily Disney Disaster: Disney Delays Snow Beige Until 2025; Gina Carano Torches Kaffeine Kennedy – Ace of Spades HQ

The [South Park Panderverse] episode wasn’t great. Many of the jokes were obvious, knocking down the lowest of low-hanging fruit, and then ending with a “both sides are wrong” message.

Really? I’m wrong? I’m not responsible for driving Disney’s stock price down from $160 to $79 and change.

And if I am partly responsible: Good. Proudest day in my life.

But even though South Park finished with some cowardly, sniveling, ass-kissing both-sidesing, the thing is, Disney’s critics do not have shareholders ready to fire us for criticizing Disney.

But Bob Iger and Kaffeine Kennedy do have shareholders they must appease.

So even though South Park’s final craven message was “both sides are wrong,” it still only hurts one side, and that’s Disney.

Disney’s shareholders now have the image of their crumbling share value linked with Kaffeine Kennedy’s endless demands to “put a chick in it and make it gay!”

And now that the Unsayable Thing has been said loudly enough that no one can pretend they didn’t hear it, people will actually begin talking about the Unsayable Thing.

Indiana Jones and the Weight of Glory – Hannah Long (Plough.com)

Perhaps no cinematic frame better encapsulates the insight that “the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom” – certainly not in the tomb-raiding adventure genre – than one near the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

In Ukraine, Logistics Rules the Battlefield – Strategy Page

The four-month-old Ukrainian offensive in southern Ukraine recently achieved a major objective. Ukrainian forces advanced to within GMLRS missile range of the only Russian rail line that carried supplies to occupied Crimea. Ukraine had already disabled the other rail supply route to Crimea, which used the Kerch Strait bridge.
