Half Hall, half Oates.
Can’t wait for people to complain they cast a Black woman as Elphaba.

2. American Fiction
3. Anatomy of a Fall
4. The Holdovers
5. Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning (not nominated)

Might see the last two nominees this weekend (Maestro and The Zone of Interest).

I’ve deactivated my Twitter and deleted the app. Back on here to see what’s good.

Welcome to Poshmark world, where selling something you wore twice for a quarter of what you paid for it is a “side hustle.”

Add Gremlins to the list of movies you could not make today. White people would feel “attacked” by the Chinatown store owner’s speech at the end.

Was episode 7 of Platonic directed by Spike Lee?

Cut to Christie winning and Trump claiming it was “rigged.”
i see your Donald Trump shooting Mike Pence with a gun and raise you Chris Christie and Donald Trump in a hot dog eating contest

I love Debra Messing so much that Heartbreaker is my favorite Mariah Carey video.

Nuggets gotta be excited to watch Heat-Celtics tonight so they can find out if they’ll win the Finals in 5 or 6. Really gonna help them firm up their post-parade travel plans.

So glad it’s Papa John’s pizza that DJ Khaled is in ads for. Really efficient allocation of shit I can’t stand.

Haven’t watched a whole Wheel of Fortune in many years, but decided to watch the celebrity edition because the Jeopardy hosts are on. In the first five minutes, we have nepotism and Pat Sajak mixing up left and right and botching Mayim Bialik’s bio. Three strikes for rewarding white mediocrity!

Odd of Panera to take out national TV ads bragging how they avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

We’ve had closed captions on TV for decades and yet they haven’t figured out how to coordinate them so they don’t block the game information.

Everyone is attributing CNN's right-ward lean to a cynical ratings grab and obviously there's some of that, but to me it overlooks the major thing which is that CNN and Discovery's leadership are themselves conservative Republicans and want CNN to promote conservative Republicans.

As bad as Trumpers are, some of these Bernie folks, man. (And I voted for Bernie in 2016.) The last time I saw Mark Takai was just over 7 yes ago. He put on an informational fair on college and aid and some Bernie folks tried to hijack it. 1/2
Did a panel yesterday on homelessness, and dear reader, a well-meaning kid derailed it with a rant how there was no difference between the parties and the DNC stole the election from Bernie, and voting was pointless.

I might have lost my temper on camera a bit.

If you’re going to keep posting admissions that you don’t know what you’re talking about, maybe listen to others who do rather than make uneducated statements. This is disingenuous.

Basically a confession that you’re regurgitating bc you don’t know yourself. And you put the onus on us to find what you consider an “objective news spectrum chart” rather than present one yourself or better yet present examples that might counter the discussion that shows clearly that CNN is RW.

I was expecting it to be bad and somehow it was worse.

CNN gave free reign to election disinformation, platformed attacks on a sexual assault victim on national television, hosted defenses of Jan 6th and dangerous lies about abortion in front of an audience preselected to cheer at all of it.
Hey @aoc.bsky.social thoughts on the Trump town hall?

Hey #jeopardy skeeters, what would you do? Today the third place person as the game wound down was negative and set to miss out on Final. First and second place were locked in. If you’d been one of those top 2 would you take your foot off the gas to give the third contestant a chance to go positive?

When an attempt is made to hold Clarence Thomas accountable for taking large money gifts, Republicans call it an attack on the legitimacy of the Supreme Court. When a jury finds Trump guilty of a crime, Republicans attack the legitimacy of the Justice system. Zero integrity.

I’m an outsider and I’m sure there’s a lot of stuff I’m not aware of, but the Bucks really fired Mike Budenholzer after he won a title two years ago and then dealt with injuries to top players the past two postseasons?

Tucker Carlson got fired over a racist text? Can’t wait till he sues Fox News claiming that should not be grounds for dismissal because they’d established racism was acceptable behavior by employees.
