I just now realized it's popcorn day and that's why people are showing up with buckets from Lowes and Home Depot and plastic bins from home.
I wouldn't eat anything out of those, and you won't get even halfway through it, but... you do you, I guess!

I was entirely unprepared for what is actually going on in the scene depicted on the poster. And I loved it.
The movie's damn good overall, though I might prefer the style of the first one; but there's empathy here for all the characters that's outstanding.
Looking forward to my next viewing.

Any one of these daily atrocities should result in a full congressional investigation and a disbanding of the agency. The fact that it’s all just shrugged off by those with the power to stop it is a national disgrace.
ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

Bill Cassidy reportedly voted for RFK Jr because Cassidy was afraid of losing his next primary and feared Trump endorsed his further-right opponent.
Trump just endorsed Cassidy’s opponent anyway!
Appeasement does not work.
Fight or get out of the way.

I did not enjoy the novel when I read it almost two decades ago and this makes me want to revisit it. It's really good, folks, and the way it explores the themes hits a bunch of my buttons just right.
The cast is also excellent and GdT is great at what he does, especially w/ respecting the legacy.

The incredibly lukewarm Democratic response on Greenland is being noticed in Europe, incidentally.
Chuck Schumer not finding a stronger word than “quixotic” for Trump’s plan to seize Greenland has been name checked to me more than once.

Exactly, and they’ve been operating everywhere in the area and beyond. Big presence in St. Paul today; daily raids in suburbs in every direction; even some smaller MN cities hours away from Minneapolis.
can we just quickly clear up an often repeated idea that Minneapolis is a “small city of 500k” or the “47th largest city in the US”?
it is directly connected to st. paul, a city of 400,000. with the suburbs, the metro area is over 3.5 million people.
your city won’t be safer because it is bigger.

I don’t know where we got the movie bowl idea (I’m sure we also stole it from someone else, can’t remember now), but I do know that it’s been a total game changer in our house as well, to the point where I’ve become annoyingly evangelical about it (we definitely stole Emily + Liam’s veto system)
the movie jar has been a truly game-changing innovation in our house (and led to some incredible double bills, like Benedetta/Barbarella), but I also must confess we stole it from @hellafitzgerald.bsky.social and @thomaslstrickland.bsky.social!!!
I stole this from @emilyhughes.bsky.social and her husband, but one of the most fun things you can do for yourself is, whenever someone mentions a movie they'd like to watch, write it down on a slip of paper, fold it, and put it in a jar. Whenever you need something to watch, pick a slip!

Pretty solid stuff here. Decent acting can't quite patch over some very 2000s failings and it doesn't deliver on its potential all the way, but this is a good snow day movie nonetheless and I *always* love watching Kevin Corrigan.
