I hope he makes these forever.
Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance

Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn

Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter

My sweetie got me a Kobo for X-Mas. I just created an account, added three books I want to my cart, and a few more (mostly horror) to my wishlist. Now, let's see what their recommendation engine has for me....

Happy 250th to Jane Austen. She didn't invent the novel, but she made it art.

The run that Rob Reiner went on between 1984 and 1992 is one of the most amazing hot streaks any director has ever had. Legendary stuff

Terrible.
Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.

Sometimes when I'm not feeling great I just binge The Elephant Graveyard videos until the world makes sense again.

Rogan's character on News Radio was pretty funny because he was a dumb guy who thought he was smart. As it turns out, in his real life Rogan is also a dumb guy who thinks he's smart, and yet he's never funny.

That show had some great writers.

And now I learn that Cronenberg was *also* offered the director's chair for Return of the Jedi...?!

Cronenberg mega watch continues. Today it's Viggo Mortensen: world's sexiest gangster day.

"History" was the most recent DC film I'd seen before today, so its all new from here on out.
