ughhh why is everything getting worse
No talking, no texting, just scanning a QR code in the middle of "Jurassic Park 27" to order your third IPA... while Alamo Drafthouse workers get their hours cut? Customers and Alamo union members have a bone to pick with a new theater policy change:
Oh, Now Alamo Drafthouse Wants You to Use Your Phone During a Movie?
The chain's new policy will do away with pen and paper ordering—and unionized Alamo workers worry it will make their hours disappear, too.

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system
President Trump has filed a lawsuit against the IRS, in which he demands that the IRS, which he as president controls, pay him $10 billion.

We’re crushed to hear that Catherine O’Hara has left us. Horror fans know her work in BEETLEJUICE and THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS (as well as a memorable appearance in TALES FROM THE CRYPT), but her body of creativity beyond genre is an epic one. Our condolences to all who loved her.
