part of me thinks it's bogus to have distinctions like best actor and best actress in award shows but part of me also thinks it's good to have more separate categories to give more awards to more people

If some guy stole my shit and made millions off it while wiping out my job prospects, and you, as my friend, bought that guy's cheap mass market replica of my shit, you and i would for obvious reasons have a problem. It being a massive company, not a guy, actually makes it even more of a problem.

Glad to see people talking about Penn Jillette. The 2024 interview was done by me. I found him to be a refreshingly reflective, self-critical individual who has remained curious and willing to evolve.

Bluesky’s head of trust & safety responding with a sarcastic image macro to a woman upset her husband was kidnapped by ICE is embarrassingly unprofessional & cruel behavior.
that account was then banned by Bluesky Trust & Safety. horrendously poor community management. what purpose does this serve?

We need a writer/director who does the fun Tarantino stuff (approaching dramas with a sense of play and silliness, putting most of the tension in long dialogue scenes, etc.) without, you know, all that other stuff

Tarantino, a director whose work I love, recently went after two actors I also love, Matthew Lillard and Paul Dano, two people who are by all accounts very kind people on top of doing great work. It's really shit and Tarantino just looks like even more of a shit.

Jack Lowden (Slow Horses) acts and looks JUST like Simon Pegg. He's like an action hero version of Simon Pegg. Pegg is still funnier, but the delivery is almost the same. It's wild.
