Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines marched us all to our doom – The Verge

The Verge is a place where you can consider the future. So are movies. In Yesterday’s Future, we revisit a movie about the future and consider the things it tells us about today, tomorrow, and yesterday. The movie: Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, directed by Jonathan Mostow The future: The Terminator movies are, with the exception of Terminator Salvation, more about fighting the future than living in it. What glimpses of it we get are usually bleak: human civilization is leveled, reduced to rubble by the rogue artificial intelligence Skynet, which seizes control of the world’s nuclear stockpile to use in a pre-emptive attack on its biggest threat: humanity. A funny quirk of this film and the one preceding it is that while they are mostly set in “the present,” they do not tak...

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media. The most curious comment came from Scott Disick, however, who wrote, "[Tristan Thompson] is a lucky man," tagging Thompson in his response. Immediately, fans started flooding the replies to Scott's post -- assuming his comment meant the two, who split after Tristan's entanglement with Jordyn Woods, were back together. "Not him," wrote one, as another say, "Guess this means they really ARE back together again." So far, Scott, Khloe nor ...

J.K. Rowling returns Kennedy family award after transphobic tweets remark – NBC News

“Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling has emerged into a fresh controversy after she returned the Ripple of Hope Award bestowed upon her by the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights organization in December 2019, following criticism from Kerry Kennedy. Kerry is the daughter of Robert F. Kennedy, and the president of the organization. “Over the course of June 2020 — LGBTQ Pride Month — and much to my dismay, J.K.
