What are your thoughts of Zack Galafinakis's Joker by the way
The LEGO Batman Movie, right? I feel like the movie did two really interesting things with the Joker, but they unfortunately worked at cross purposes.
On the one hand, the movie takes Joker and Batman's rivalry and cranks up the homoromantic subtext as much as they can in a kid's movie. Joker's entire scheme is intended for Bat-senpai to notice him. And the scene at the end, where Batman finally does acknowledge that Joker is his greatest foe, is set up and filmed almost exactly like a declaration of love.
BUT on the other hand, in the first two-thirds of the film where Batman is the "bad boyfriend" and he refuses to acknowledge the Joker's importance... Well, I haven't seen a Batman story before where Batman explicitly tells the Joker, "I don't need you at all. You mean nothing to me," and I honestly find myself agreeing with that sentiment. So it's a bit frustrating to me that Batman is supposed to be the bad guy for daring to insist that he doesn't need a murderclown in his life.
Overall, though, this movie simultaneously deflates the Joker's aura of awesomeness, but also lets him pull off a really subversive scheme to bring down Batman.
Also, a bit of irony. The LEGO Batman Movie takes some big swipes at the DCEU and dark-n-edgy Batman in general... yet LEGO Batman's character arc is almost identical to Batman's from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and his movie borrows plot points for the climax (namely a power plant converted into a bomb capable of destroying Gotham) from The Dark Knight Rises. It's just that LEGO Batman lives in a deliberately silly universe and never asks the audience to take anything seriously.
I ate one of those chobani flip yogurts that was ostensibly supposed to be smores flavored and I gotta say: why do yogurt manufacturers try to push flavors that don't suit yogurt so hard

this is some kind of cartel with those people who make popcorn-flavored lollipops.

Chobani tried to sell yoghurt as "Greek" yoghurt in the UK once, and got a court claim against them by FAGE, on the grounds that they aren't actually Greek.
(In the UK, Greek yoghurt has to actually come from Greece, otherwise it's "Greek-style yoghurt".)
1.1 All that exists does so because of the song of Illuvatar. 1.2 The Ainur were the first created and dictate the facts of the world. 1.2.1 These facts are determined by the structure of the song. 1.2.2 Evil is made from discord in the melody. 1.2.3 Discord is a difference in the song of an individual Ainur and the pre-established plan of Eru.
In the beginning there were the Atomic Facts, or the relations of Things, as they are sometimes called in the West. When they combined together in the void they formed the great composite propositions.

Wow. This is the best and saddest thing.
