Watched Solar Opposites, a cartoon started by Justin Roiland like Rick and Morty with lots in common.
Including Roiland being kicked out after a couple of seasons for his crimes, and being replaced. This time not with an impersonator but just a new more british actor. Stayed pretty much in vibe with his style though.
Four aliens stuck on earth, plus the adventures of the tiny people that one of the aliens shrunk to keep in his wall like an ant farm. And the Silver Cops.
Pretty good fun. Watched the five seasons on Netflix in a couple of weeks. Apparently there's another if I search or wait.
Interesting how the machine can just keep churning it out even when the lead folks disappear. That's the ideal I suppose. Create the show then let it run on without you.

Adelaide Festival board resigns and Adelaide Writers’ Week cancelled after 180 authors pull out in protest of Zionist board decision to disinvite Palestinian author.
Remember this, if you’re a Zionist: like the Nazis before you, you are committing genocide, you are on the wrong side of history, and – as long as there are people of good moral character and conscience to oppose you – you will not succeed. Your only allies are the MAGAs of the world and those too spineless to stand up to …

What happened in Gramzow is just awful, and I really hope they can remove all the oil
There something interesting linguistically, though. They're all using “die PCK Schwedt,” which sounds odd. Apparently, “PCK” has lost the property of being an acronym for “das Petrol-Chemische Kombinat” but turned into a modifier or even only arbitrary first part of the name “die Raffinerie.” Similar as people use “der Radio” or “der Fernseh” skipping “apparat.”
Using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based telescopes, astrophysicists have for the first time found firm evidence that a companion is disrupting the atmosphere of Betelgeuse.
Like a boat moving through water, the companion star creates a ripple effect in Betelgeuse’s atmosphere.
Astronomers now see direct signs of this wake, confirming that Betelgeuse really does have a hidden companion shaping its appearance and behavior.
