Only tangentially related, but it was kind of amazing how much work was put into making Furiosa canonically connected to the Mad Max video game from 2015, up to and including a quick appearance by Chumbucket.

I always like to remind people he also has a writing credit for Babe, which he also produced and did actually also direct the sequel Babe: Pig in the City as well as having a writing credit for that, too.
Further, he also directed and had writing credits for both Happy Feet and Happy Feet Two before returning to form with Fury Road.
Snot Flickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto politics @lemmy.world•Hakeem Jeffries makes it clear he’ll stand by incumbent House Dems and pushes back on progressivesEnglish107·7 hours agoCrossing your arms and going “No, I won’t vote for your agenda without your full support!” when the alternative to voting for that agenda is literally fucking fascism is flat out saying you support fascism more than you support your own party. Tell progressives how they’re doing it wrong more, I’m sure it will win important elections like it… hasn’t.
This fucking “I was here first, and have seniority, so I deserve first choice” stuff is grade school bullshit.

Then it shattered" - Easter Sunday April 20, 2025 - ATTENTION USAEnglish213·8 hours agoThe America you loved was a lie built for the silver screen. Fixed that for you.
Further, the sheer audacity to mention Tom Waits and not recognize the brokenness of so many the characters that populated Waits’ songs that reflected the brokenness of America.
- Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis
- Romeo is Bleeding
- Anywhere I Lay My Head
- Frank’s Wild Years
- Soldier’s Things
- Clap Hands
- House Where Nobody Lives
- Crossroads
Fuck me, I could go on, but that’s just a handful of examples of Waits songs that are explicitly about how broken the USA is. Waits’ music never described a hopeful or happy America, no matter how touching and beautiful his music is.

All I can say is I am sorry and my entire family, not just a brother, is the same, so I empathize.
I don’t know what to do about it either. I am mostly just broken.
