@TylerRatcliff17 This is the origin of the Precision Immobilization Technique.

@BBGreatMoments Of course. Y'all may not like his politics, but he is far less of an arse than the schmucks who refuse to vote for him. Schilling is and was awesome.

@ElonFinkelstein @historyinmemes I would expect that the quality of film in this distant future would be far better. That and apes being able to speak is far more plausible than anything the French built still being in tact.

@combat_yeoman @historyinmemes Are you saying it's plausible that the arm and torch would still be attached in real life, or just saying that it's ridiculous to be concerned about that when there are talking monkeys in the movie?

A conclusion that stunned audiences and immediately established this film as a classic..
Audiences in 1968 were stunned by the ending of Planet of the Apes, which revealed that astronaut George Taylor had been on a post-apocalyptic Earth all along, catching viewers completely off guard. With spoiler culture and twist-driven marketing still largely absent at the time, most audiences experienced the final reveal with no advance hint of what was coming.
The ending went on to become one of the most iconic moments in film history, helping cement the movie’s reputation as a sci-fi classic while also reflecting the era’s anxieties about nuclear war during the 1960s.

@RightScopee Yes! Remove the corrupt sea hag! And get rid of ranked choice voting while you're at it.
Along with counting illegals in the census and race based districting, ranked choice is the scourge of free and fair elections!

🚨 SHARP ALERT: Scott Presler is CRUSHING it in Alaska — putting MASSIVE heat on RINO Lisa Murkowski to finally secure our elections!
“All we’re asking for is proof of citizenship PLUS photo voter ID. Pretty damn low bar, right?”
MAGA, it’s time to get LOUD and flood the phones — NO MORE RINO games! Pass the SAVE Act NOW or get primaried.
YES or NO: Will you contact your Senators today and demand they kill the filibuster and pass this?

@Supersonic_Red I so agree with this post! If you were born in the first half of the 60s (like me) this is you. I aint no boomer and I'm way cooler than X'ers. I am the best of both, damnit!
English

There’s a generation a lot of people forget exists. We were born at the tail end of the Boomers, but we are not culturally the same as people born in the 40s and early 50s. We are Generation Jones.
And honestly, it explains a lot.
We grew up in a world that still felt fundamentally analog, but we were young enough to be dragged headfirst into the digital revolution. We are the bridge generation between rotary phones and smartphones, between slide rules and AI, between Walter Cronkite and algorithm driven media.
We remember when there were only a few television channels and the entire country watched the same thing at the same time. We also adapted to the internet, email, forums, social media, streaming and now artificial intelligence. We lived before and after the technological singularity hit everyday life.
That is not a small thing.
People born in the 40s came of age in a post World War II America that was still industrial, deeply hierarchical and institutionally stable. Their formative years were shaped by the Cold War, Vietnam, the civil rights era and a society where information moved slowly.
Generation Jones came later. We inherited the aftermath of all of that.
We were the kids who watched Watergate destroy blind trust in government. We watched manufacturing begin to collapse. We saw divorce rates explode. We were the first truly latchkey generation in massive numbers. We learned independence early because many of us had to.
We grew up with one foot in old America and one foot in whatever this new thing was becoming.
We played outside until the streetlights came on but we also learned DOS commands. We learned cursive and keyboarding. We had card catalogs and Google searches. We went from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to MP3s to streaming in one lifetime.
We remember maps. We remember memorizing phone numbers. We remember life before GPS and before every human interaction became filtered through a screen.
And because of that, I think Generation Jones developed a very unique perspective. We are adaptable because we had no choice but to adapt. We learned technology as adults instead of being born into it. We remember a slower world but were forced to survive in a rapidly accelerating one.
That creates a very different mindset than either older Boomers or younger Gen X and Millennials.
A lot of us also reject the caricature people now associate with “Boomers.” We were not buying houses for the cost of a sandwich in 1965. The interest rate on my first house was over 14% and that was after buying down a point. Many of us got hit by recessions, outsourcing, pension collapses and economic instability just like younger generations did. We watched promises evaporate in real time.
We understand older generations because we were raised by them. We understand younger generations because we had to evolve alongside them.
That’s why the Jones generation often feels culturally homeless. We are rarely discussed, rarely defined and usually lumped into categories that don’t actually fit us.
But we exist.
We are the human transition point between the industrial age and the digital age.
And frankly, there will probably never be another generation quite like us again.

@ElonFinkelstein @historyinmemes I can't decide if we can be friends or not. If you're serious - we simply can't be in the same room. I assume this is satire which we means I'll buy the next beverage of choice.!
English

@historyinmemes I like how the arm of the statue of liberty is still in tact holding up the torch. That would be the first part that would break off. hell, the rest of her is obliterated. Like the arm is gonna be fully intact? C'mon, so fake. It would have ruined the movie for me

@atensnut A+. This is the commercial that should be shown to sell this feature.

@BBGreatMoments Opposite Field, too! Next time she steps up to the plate, maybe a little chin music?

@BBGreatMoments I'm old and have bad eyes....but that pitch was right down the middle. Boone was wrong.

@kurewe @KimKatieUSA I think that's a fair question. But, those windows have a very dark tint and there is no way for the police to know if the guy wanted for murder was armed or not. They probably should have that tool with them, but that has nothing to do with this situation. Good Shoot.
English

@KimKatieUSA Anybody mind if I ask why cops never seem to have a simple tool like a Window Breaker? Every time, it's just them slamming the windows with everything but a Window Breaker.

Chicago Humboldt Park. Derek Jordan fled from police then got stuck in traffic. Officers are outside his car yelling get out of the car. He refuses and starts ramming their vehicle multiple times nearly hitting them.
Police had no choice other than to shoot and kill Jordan.
Full new story in the comments.

@NUCLRGOLF I was rooting for little Ricky, but I'm not surprised this cat won. He's playing really well all year.
