I have been training my entire life for this Cinematrix category. I just regret I couldn’t come up with an obscure enough 3rd to get 2% across the board.

Highlighted quote from one of the inventors of the three cue-ing method of reading. "Word recognition is a preoccupation," he said. "I don't teach word recognition. I teach people to make sense of language. And learning the words is incidental to that."

So we *don’t* want Nordic pagans?

My three favorite kinds of dogs are: big, dumb blondes; working breeds so smart they’re basically villain origin stories; and mutts so mutty they can only be described as Dog
Pictured: 1 & 2/3
A huge Goldendoodle has his front legs on the ground and his entire back half still lying on a sofa because he forgot what he was doing The most beautiful mutt in the world is sitting in sunshine with a serious look on his face. He is black & white with tan accents, including eyebrow dots that betray his probable Australian shepherd and Rottweiler ancestry.

A tale of having a 731 cell number in 2 parts:
Screengrab of a fundraising text from a TN Republican apparently named Jody Barrett, who is entirely barking up the wrong tree. Screengrab of my reply text reading “Go fuck yourself. I don’t even live in TN but I’d consider moving back just to vote against you and your patently evil party”

You’ve inherited a movie theater, what’s your first double feature?

The Fall (2006) and Dark City (1998). Do they make sense as a duel ticket? I mean, you can argue they’re both about world building and self-definition. But mostly I would just want to see both big again.

I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise. If MG wasn’t actually all in for Cuomo, it is due to Cuomo not being quite crazy enough for his tastes.
11 minutes ago Theodore Schleifer As donors try to assess their next moves in the mayoral race, one of the biggest donors to Andrew Cuomo's super PAC, the investor Mark Gorton, said he is likely to back Mamdani. That is because of the support that Mamdani had gotten from Brad Lander, who Gorton said he ranked first. "I feel like people misunderstood my $250,000 for Cuomo for real enthusiasm," Gorton said in an interview. "It was basically, 'Oh, looks like Cuomo is coming back. We don't want to be shut out. Let's try and get on his good side? That's kind of how things work with Cuomo. It's sad political pragmatism. I wish we lived in a world where those sort of things were not useful things to do."

Pop quiz: tell me what you immediately read this as.
Picture of a bottle of very ominous brown Sprite product. The label definitely looks like it says “Sprite Flea” (It is meant to say “Sprite + Tea” but the font choice is misguided)

Incredible posting teamwork
Johnny Normality (Fer.. @probgo... • 1h I know posting "the girls are fighting" seems funny, but it's actually insensitive and shitty. My father died in a girl fight. He tried to break it up and the girls pulled him apart like freshly baked bread. He didn't even scream. One moment he was there, the next just a spray of dad viscera. Miranda Miller @randymiller.bsk... • 51m There's a reason there's no song about the time the girls were back in town. Johnny Normality (Fera…. You need survivors for that

I don’t always thirst for Pedro Pascal, but he undeniably looked hot as shit on the Cannes red carpet. The Chelsea tank? Grade A thirst trapping.
Pedro Pascal wearing all black. A tank top whose arm holes go practically down to his waist, wide leg pants, and some sort of boot sitch with silver spiky studs.
