My cats are staring at you, you’d better follow me just in case they decide to pounce
Cheating because I worked at movie theaters but I have so many. My friend sobbing at the realization that Meryl Streep is dead for all of Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again is always the first to mind.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I’m sure that the team at CD is putting a lot of hard work into these games and I don’t want to cast aspersions on any individual people there but these TR games feel like someone let those weirdos who keep trying to yaasify game heroines they think are too ugly pitch a new Lara Croft

jokes on the Feds, the roads in Indiana already don’t get paved
This is, quite unambiguously, an extortion racket.

“Earlier” in this instance means “literally right now” because DuBois’ coanchor is John Dickerson, a white man with journalism in his blood (who evidently is too principled to deal with this nonsense since he’s leaving in December too)
Hiring a Black woman: “identity politics”

Hiring a white guy for a job that has been held disproportionately by white guys, because he is a white guy: “subverting” identity politics!

(The author of this sentence is Dylan Byers; you will not be surprised to learn that he is a white guy.)

I see that people a little bit younger than me are romanticizing being a millennial in 2012 and I’m here to tell you it was exactly as good as you think it was

This is extra funny because the “Greatest Generation” earned that moniker because they fought in WWII, the last great thing America did as a collective

Gen X is the opposite of that because they had no conflict to deal with and hate doing shit as a collective
God no.

It’s important to remember when watching ESPN that they’re basically Fox News but for propagandizing the teams and entities that they have contracts with

i only sorta keep up with xg but I really do need to pay more attention to them, their styling and music are really good and it says a lot that cocona felt comfortable and safe enough in their environment to come out like this, that’s so beautiful

that’s not even the worst part of this clip immediately after he starts to talk about how that will actually help heal the divides in our country this man’s brain is so smooth I could use it as a curling stone

New theory: Hakeem Jeffries is actually deeply unhappy with all the attention he’s getting and is currently trying to Producers his way into a primary challenger
Jeffries claims the charges against Cueller were "very thin" and says Trump's pardon was "exactly the right outcome"

Just so there is zero misunderstanding about what I'm saying, if you pull a stunt like this, because you dislike trans people teaching, or you want to make academia conform to or tolerate fundamentalist standards, you should be harassed by the student body until you're forced to leave the university

Very excited for the next round of Sony email leaks where it’s revealed that the entire point of this movie is to increase the SEO score for “Stephen Curry GOAT” as he approaches retirement

Most of my Apple Replay is just a polite reminder that I listen to Carly Rae Jepsen too much (especially Too Much, as it turns out) but my albums by month is a good highlight reel for the year.

I think the reason I’m less harsh on Wicked: For Good as some critics is the same reason why I’m less harsh on It: Chapter 2, in that I’ve had decades to accept that this part of the story is just Like That and was able to go into the adaptations and enjoy them trying their best to flail through it

Wicked is still successful and is going to keep making sequels despite now having inferior source material to go off of from here

Meanwhile, Dune is still successful and is going to keep making sequels despite having inferior source material to go off of from here

Solution: The Wizard of Dune

A Gen Z-led advocacy group announced a boycott campaign targeting major corporations “that enable, profit from, or directly collaborate with ICE.” Beyond the Ballot launched “Not With My Dollars: ICE Out of My Wallet” just days before Black Friday kicks off.

Gonna cheat and say a TV show, give me Hannibal Season 4: Silence of the Lambs
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

We need to do everything we can to encourage posts like this on bluesky. Terrible food opinions from big name sportswriters are genuinely the lifeblood of any social media app
Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.
