What's Futurama? There's even a Richard Gere movie of Hachiko. Though it always sounded like a Greyfriar's Bobby rip-off to me.

It was futuristic series by the same guy that did the Simpsons. Basically a guy from our time gets frozen and ends up in the year 3000. There's one episode where he finds his fossilized dog in the natural history museum, and you learn of its fate. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jurassic_BarkThey double down on the sad.

That was such a great episode. First time a cartoon made me shed a tear. That original run of Futurama is still the greatest animated show of all time, IMO. Shame they couldn’t recapture the magic in the later Comedy Central season. Makes me worried for the upcoming Hulu revival, but I choose to be cautiously optimistic.

Crack in rollercoaster caught on camera
That seems unnerving. At least its being looked into now, but surprised it got that bad.

Sorry, either I've been watching too much Beavis & Butthead recently, or it's been a long day, but as soon as I got to that word my subconscious kicked into Beavis & Butthead mode and I couldn't really process anything else.

Story certainly takes a weird and unexpected turn about half way through

Jesus, every single step of her last moments and then even death after crashing her car is just the worst possible thing you can imagine happening one after the other.

Looking at the bbc news website, I can't help but feel we've fucked the planet for the next generation. Heatwave in 30% of the USA. Heat emergencies in southern Europe. Wildfires in the canary islands. Record rainfall and floods in parts of Korea and Japan.
Plus it's ridiculously hot in my apartment this weekend.

It's a sad fact that only when millions of affluent (compared with third world) people in developed countries actually start to die or are forced to migrate to cooler locations every year will there ever be any serious action taken to address climate change. A few years to go yet ....

Yeah, the current migration situation is going to be nothing compared to the one triggered by the climate

You don’t get to choose who you love, user Bill James Bill. Especially if they burst into your bedroom late one night, apparently.

Weirdly reminded of the episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where Dr. Crusher falls in love with a ghost.
It was not one of the better episodes.
