Last time I remember being absolutely furious was probably Eternal Sunshine.
Saw it when it first came out in my 20s with a group of friends.
Absolutely insufferable characters with an even more insufferable plot and the outpouring of admiration made it all the more wild to me.

fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

Drop what you’re doing and listen to the most intelligent discussion about this movie ever recorded.
…and I’d like to take a moment to publicly apologize to Ms. Faye Dunaway for the cruel (albeit clever) nickname I quoted. I admire, respect and absolutely 100% fear you, Faye. ❤️

This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.
It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.

Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.

Damage was minimal but police are investigating.

When a friend asks for your opinion on a book and to provide a blurb, there’s often a temptation to get through it quickly because you want to be able get them what they need as soon as you can.
It’s a testament to BEAT EVERY 1-UP that I wanted to savour each chapter for as long as I could.

Writers, if you could drop your novel into a blender that also sets your dick on fire, and every artist you admire laughs and calls you "burnt dick blender guy," would you do it?

AI filmmaking is completely unserious.
You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

Help me pay for all the CLASSIFIED pre-orders I just pre-ordered by shopping my line of weird, hyper-specific GI JOE shirts (and products)
In the hopes that the larger #GIJoe community of People Who Need Shirts to Wear to Conventions / Comic Shops / Everday Life, here's a thread of all my designs. I think they're unlike anything else out there, I'm just saying! Plus, I always *need* the money.
