The subtle, little sidestep move Sam Rockwell does to get between Steve Carell and Liam James at the end of THE WAY WAY BACK
This is a favorite question to ask. Favorite little moment of kindness in a movie? I'm thinking of Tim Blake Nelson leaving money on the sill after they steal a pie in O Brother.

I saw this for the first time last year during TCM’s Memorial Day marathon and was blown away by how simple and great it is.

🧵 Sending out gratitude to all first responders today! Last night, we got stuck in a ~40 min delay on WB 118 to Simi Valley. I can't find any news stories on it, tho from what I saw on the CHP site while stuck, it sounds like an initial two-car collision that came to involve a few more cars.

even news sources you like need you to stay attached to them for reasons beyond informing you and right now you should be asking if it’s healthy for you to inject that directly
to post earnestly for a second: step one is to stop following news sources (even ones you agree with) and doomer-flavored commentators
then use the “hide post for me” button any time after you see a news story because you don’t need to see it again
you won’t be materially less informed

Just a heads up, if you force video or photos of a woman being murdered on me I’m blocking you.
I know it happened, it’s fucking abhorrent and I know where to go to learn more if I need to.
I’m not going to have a video of it shoved in my face.
