THAT director aside, Diane Keaton’s performance in Annie Hall opened spaces for women in film: what romantic leads could look like, dress like, sound like; that there could be a place for an oddball who wasn’t a screwball. That’s all her - Keaton was such a brilliant actress and icon, truly

The RIAA was suing teenagers. We had to sit through ⬇️ this shit anytime we wanted to watch a DVD. A whole generation shamed for using Limewire and torrents. Only for these silicone valley assholes to now find copyright infringement a necessary evil they shouldn’t have to answer for

This is actually the first time I’ve been back since 2017—prior to that it was always just a little bit expensive (though not exceptionally).

It hasn’t always been cheaper, at least, in Paris it wasn’t.

Elaine: This feels like a lot of hallways
Jerry: It’s an unreasonable amount of hallways!
George: How can they expect us to walk down so many hallways!
Kramer: Follow the purple signs, Jerry

Welcome to London Heathrow. Follow the purple signs. At the end of the hallway is another hallway. Turn left after that, and go down another hallway. It’s hallways all the way down.

I can't thank enough all the animators on this project for bringing my little dog to life. A lot of indie animators whose work I follow and love a whole lot too! I knew what was coming, but the final product is still leaving me speechless. Thank you to all who worked on this! YOURE THE BEST

Today is $10 day… if you’ve never given to CHIRP before, this is a great way to start out. If everyone who listens gave $10, we’d hit our goal today!
