That video where George Clooney makes fun of Quentin Tarantino for thinking they look alike gives us so much insight into the Paul Dano thing. Tarantino thinks that Dano is dweebier than he is, but in fact he is far dweebier than Dano.

The QAnon people have gotten some vindication. Yes, they hilariously backed the wrong guy (mostly because of the racism, I figure). But they believed there was an international cabal of powerful men trafficking young women—and they were right!

The podcast @ifbookspod.bsky.social just coined the term “cringe billionaire.” And if that isn’t a New York Mag think piece, I don’t know what is.

A new report on civic freedoms concludes that "the US is no longer a functional democracy."
Congrats everyone. And a *special* congrats to the Harpers letter signatories, free-speech warriors, and "anti-woke" crusaders. You saved us from woke! Great work.

Theater vs. At Home Viewing Exhibit A: Watched an hour of If I Had Legs I’d Kick You and found it unbearable. I mean, it’s meant to be unbearable, but still... In a theater I would’ve been forced to sit with my anxiety. At home, I peaced out. (Rose Byrne is a goddess tho)

George Clooney essentially plays his own doppelganger in this meta character study.

Do y’all know this album? If you don’t, you should. It’s freaky Gen X folk-blues. I was obsessed with this album in the early 90s and when Bob came through town he stayed at my apartment and my dog, Maggie, bit one of his bandmates.

Did they botch the ages of the daughters in JAY KELLY or did I miss something? He says he had his first daughter 34 years ago. His youngest, Daisy, is 18. And yet when they’re shown doing their Kelly & Kelly routine they are clearly only five or six years apart.

Somehow I was talked into nominating Gus for Best Rescue Pet. Please set an alarm to vote once a day. (JK, but a single vote would be much appreciated!)
Gus | Pet Lovers' Choice Awards
He was found dumped at a construction site in Texas with another dog. My sister adopted that dog and named her Gertie. Gus and Gertie get to see each other all the time!
