I hope he says "It's punishin' time!" and than punishes all over the place.

The foxes have been in the henhouse for a while. But now they don't need to hide anymore. The American oligarchy can finally shed its masks and go full-on Russia 2.0.
Jesse Eisenberg playing Lex as twitchy, cringy sociopath seems almost prophetic now.
Fascism and capitalism.
Literally the plot of The Langoliers.
I would take Camacho over Trump in a heartbeat!
The Vulture article delves deep into the potential whys. It appears he suffered serious abuse by his parents who were very prominent Scientologists, pretty much the leaders of the cult in the UK.
Then, as an adult, he refused any kind of therapy. Instead, he became an abuser himself, even going so far as to potentially traumatize his own son.
None of that excuses his behaviour. He's obviously very intelligent and his works show that he knew very well that what he did was evil and inexcusable. He wrote a chapter of Sandman about this exact thing! But in the end he just didn't care. Because he probably thinks he's rich, he's famous and the rules don't apply to him.
If they haven't already filmed it and done the effects, it's probably canceled. They might even shelve it anyway.
He's clearly on some kind of weight loss drugs (Ozempic?) or more ill then he lets on. The fat was masking his real age. He also has a shorter haircut and a little less absurd make-up. Also no shoulderpads apparently. He doesn't need to pretend to look less ancient than Biden anymore (or not look as old compared to Harris).
Sounds like someone who suffered from serious abuse, never went to actual therapy in a meaningful way but instead got into a position of power where he could feel good by being the abuser instead of the abused. Which does not excuse any of it. On the contrary, his writing shows very clearly that he understands that what he did was wrong, but he did it regardless.
I was in Tokio last year and it's really amazing. I have never seen such perfect efficiency and punctuality, and I'm German! A huge factor though is that all the people follow the rules and are mindful of everybody else. Nobody standing in the way, nobody pushing or shoving other people. Also, despite being a mindboggingly huge metropolis, there seem to be hardly any traffic jams. The world could learn a lot from Japan concerning transport.
It's one of the reasons the new US king gets so many gifts.
