This movie is criminally underseen and should be a part of your annual Thanksgiving watch rotation. Such a sweet rom-com that’s unafraid to be a little raunchy, and the Midwestern gay subplot is one of the very best.
NEW EP: SWEETHEARTS (2024)
The first fall break in college is one of the weirdest coming-of-age adjustment periods, and SWEETHEARTS is one of the only movies to talk about it. Let's tackle "Turkey Dumps" and intergenerational queer friendships in small towns!
Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

You shouldn’t go to Starbucks for many reasons, but also, their coffee tastes, and has always tasted, like dog shit. We don’t talk about this enough. Their coffee straight up sucks in addition to being a terrible company.

It’s absolutely unhinged how many ads for dumbass phone games play out like, “Are you so poor you’re stealing to feed your child? Play this solitaire game and your child will be able to eat!”

Speaking as a longtime Paul Thomas Anderson aficionado, Sinners was a way more important film — and a much smarter film — than One Battle After Another, which was entertaining at times but also full of misogynoir and bad revisionist readings of liberation movements

I haven’t written for Paste in many years, but it still sucks to lose another outlet where I and many much better writers plied our trade. I got to write some fun things there.
Today, Paste Magazine shuttered all its non-music verticals, a choice I am both professionally and personally heartbroken about. Sadly, I am once again looking for a place that wants to let me write about Books and TV on the regular, so hit me up if that’s you or anyone you know.

Wilson took a 1,976-vote lead over Bruce Harrell. With a maximum of 1,320 ballots remaining, it is mathematically impossible for Harrell to catch up.

It's not over yet, but this is a good sign for Wilson. Every vote counts. If you voted in King County, please check your ballot status at the link below. I've had my signature flagged in the past, and it was very easy to resolve the matter.

You can search by zip code and a lot of places have wish lists set up on Chewy so you’ll be able to see exactly what they need and have it sent direct to them. Couldn’t be easier.
if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

The most important things I've done for myself as a writer in digital media are:
• Setting up an authory page so my portfolio auto-updates and backups exist if the websites go under.
• Backing up my contacts list monthly. You WILL NOT be given time to collect them upon layoff, you WILL lose them.

Remember that while food banks welcome donations of food, they prefer $$$$$$$. They have deals with grocery stores and suppliers. You can only buy one dollar's worth of food for one dollar, but they can buy several dollars' worth. So don't, like, buy food to donate it, just give 'em the dough.
