Supreme vs. Ratman. Jekyll vs. Hyde. Professor X vs. Magnito. Mario vs. Wario. Connor vs. McGregor. Scott Pilgrim vs. The world. Morse vs Frederick. The city of New York vs. Homer Simpson.

A tale as old as time.

After a good career of actually being funny, Jack Black got into gaming, then Vaush, then started doing campaign speeches for Biden.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

"So I had a meeting with an important man the other day. Do you want to hear about? Of course you want to." Stage right - the man in question grimaces. Biden entirely forgot that at the end of each sentence there should have been a pregnant pause to build up the joke. So like a driver panicked in a skid - Biden massively overcorrects. "That man's name was... No.... I mean - gosh darn it... I said hello Jack, jack, jack, jack, jack. Hello—"

Jack Black bounds on stage to save the president "Hellllllllllllllllllllllllo, Mr. President!" The President is frozen and staring blankly. Black tries to save him by hamming things up even more. "Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloooo, Mr. President!" He's doing the best job he can of making it look scripted. Considering how awful things clearly are - he's doing an excellent job but the President is still frozen and his facial expressions are getting scary.

Black soldiers on "Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo, Mr. President!" The president moves side to side a little but now his face looks like a death mask. Black has a shot of inspiration "Gooooooood Morrrrrrrrrrrrrning Vietnam!" And the president comes out of his standing coma. "I like that movie. With Mork." Black's smile is unwavering. "Of course, of course - Mr. President."

Oh I didn't even realize that was him I thought it was America's got talent or some shit.

I never found him funny, just annoying. Even more annoying when people I knew would talk about how funny he is.

"And then he said, if you don't vote for me, you ain't Jack Black!"

I can't hate Jack Black, even when he's wearing a US flag

Edit: Found out he's a huge lib. Fuck 'em.

After Ronnie James Dio died and was no longer there to guide him, Jack Black wound up in a very bad place.

Spinning up the Charlie Haden grave perpetual motion engine.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't get it. The only Charlie Haden I know of was a jazz bassist who died years ago.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Same one. Haden seemed to have pretty good politics, and Jack Black is married to one of his triplet daughters.

Here's a pretty solid interview. Pretty sure he had a lib streak, but his 1971 on stage protest in Portugal is bolder than anything I would ever imagine doing so he gets my respect.

Liberation Music Orchestra is a banger album, too! I'd recommend it to anyone who's stayed up late listening to old communist music

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Thanks. I only know him from his work with Ornette Coleman and some (more than some?) side work he did. I can never remember who played on what when it comes to side work.

Arthur M. Wolfe and Geoffrey Burbidge noted in 1970 that the large velocity dispersion of the stars in the nuclear region of elliptical galaxies could only be explained by a large mass concentration at the nucleus; larger than could be explained by ordinary stars. They showed that the behavior could be explained by a massive black hole with up to 10 billion solar masses, or a large number of smaller black holes with masses below 1000 solar masses. Dynamical evidence for a massive dark object was found at the core of the active elliptical galaxy Messier 87 in 1978, initially estimated at 5 times 10 to the 9th solar masses. Discovery of similar behavior in other galaxies soon followed, including the Andromeda Galaxy in 1984 and the Sombrero Galaxy in 1988.

don't even have a joke but damn Jack Black might be the first man to look good wearing the American flag. like if you put aside the fact that it's in service of a genocidal president/country you have to admit this fit goes incredibly hard

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Those stars are trippy, wow.

This guy samed Sam Hyde told me he'd give me 50 bucks to walk out on stage with these overalls and say thanks for coming to my ted talk
