how history will remember the early 2000’s… probably

That Anikin and Padme meme with the text:

(Panel 1 Anikin) “… then in 2012 Obama was elected to his 2nd term”

(Panel 2 Padme) “and that was the end of racism in america, right?”

(Panel 3 Anikin) [staring blankly]

(Panel 4 Padme) “right?!?”

i say this as someone with deep southern roots: an AI song comfortably sitting at number 1 on the country music charts is shamefully hilarious 🤠 🙃

fyi they’re basically doing vintage twitter on reddit

meme of Zorhan Mamdami wearing a propeller hat and holding a giant lollipop. with a text bubble that reads “f*ck them british wizard movies”

there is also text from his mother’s wikipedia page above Zohran that reads “In 2007, Nair was asked to direct Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, but turned it down to work on The Namesake, reportedly after her son Zohran persuaded her that she was the only one who could direct the latter. 19] (31] Based on…”

Reddit comments from under the Zohran meme:

I just fact-checked. This is real. Holy cow. His exact words to his mother: "Mama, many good directors can make Harry Potter, but only you can make The Namesake". Nair called it a "liberating and clarifying statement."

it’s impossible to overstate how massive this broadcast deal is… apple studios might have just demolished every single one of its competitors with this move.
