I've been shouting this from the rooftops. She and Walz started with "they're weird, and liberal values are neighborly and compassionate." HUGE energy, people loved it. Then they pivoted to racking up Republican endorsements and you could feel the balloon deflate.

I said I had a joke about Cassandra and you didn't believe me.
I had a joke about the Moirai, but chances are you've already heard it or will hear it at some point in the future, so there's no point in telling it now.
I had a joke about Oedipus but it was a real motherfucker.

A fun, sleazy thriller that could have been sleazier, a bonkers but sincere indie thing, a bland 80s cult flick, aand a hidden indie gem we're calling JoAnn Wick.

What’s a movie that I’d someone doesn’t like it, you’ll hate them?

Hate is a strong word, but I wouldn’t know how to relate if you don’t like EEAAO.

It's @mc.frontalot.com's birthday today! This guy's been too old to be a rapper for 20 years, but he's still bringing his A-game to every show. Helluva nice guy, too. You can give him money here:

Camryn Manheim is amazing in Tod Solondz's Happiness. Beyond that, it's one redeeming quality is it saved me from wanting to see anything else he directs.
Defend a terrible film by picking something from it that saves it.

An intensely weird movie that deftly weaves sincerity and absurdism together: Chompy and the Girls (2021). #Letterboxd.

A ★★★½ review of Chompy & the Girls (2021)
This falls into one of my favorite micro-genres: Shit Gets Seriously Weird One Night. Sometimes, the weirdness is slightly fantastical but grounded, as in Go or Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle. Some...

I named my fists Bill and Ted, because they can give you an excellent adventure or a bogus journey, but either way you gotta face the music.
I've named my fists Hall and Oates because whoa-oh here they come, watch out boy, they'll chew you up
I named my fists Pride and Prejudice, because it is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of two fists must be in want of whupping ass

Just got a fundraising email from @repangiecraig.bsky.social asking for a small donation. But I heard that pooling resources for the common good is socialism, and didn't someone recently vote that socialism is bad?

Somewhat correct, except that pecan pie is basically sugar-coated wood, and unfit for human consumption. I'm sure beavers enjoy it.
The good pies: berry of any kind, pumpkin, pecan, key lime. The rest are filler.

Hey @repangiecraig.bsky.social , stop voting with Republicans on nonsense like this. Keep your spine. Mamdani is energizing the party. Don’t be a party pooper.
The House of Representatives voted on a resolution condemning socialism ahead of President Trump's meeting with Zohran Mamdani.

"The president did not CALL for their execution! He simply said that they had committed a crime which is punishable by death!"
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Democrats to be executed: "Attorneys have to parse the language and determine all that."

Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched?

4 down, 8 to go on Friday the 13th movies, Predator Badlands rocks, and Cellar Dweller is a gentle homage to EC Comics with some super fun practical effects.

the desire for Endless Franchise is sublimated hunger for God. if the franchise ends the hunger pricks, the dread tide ebbs. the standalone short story exists, in the franchise acolyte's imagination, like the grim reaper a the end of a dark dirt road
