This is another major scandal that in any normal country would result in the immediate impeachment and removal of the president.

This is legitimately unimportant but I need to focus on some unimportant things right now

I really hate how some fanfic writers approach Snape & Harry's relationship like they were equally wrong with each other, or like Harry somehow owes Snape something

HATE. Fuck Severus Snape, Harry was a child

Rich people, especially rich people in the media & entertainment industries right this moment:

The point of having fuck you money is saying “fuck you” when it counts.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Among other things, I'm just so pissed that a country that once made winning WWII its whole personality is now building concentration camps

So basically giving whites even more reason to go out and shoot people with little repercussions.

You dating Musiq Soulchild?
So, I exchanged numbers with a man from church. He’s stared at me for a long time and I guess just got the courage to ask for my #. I only know his name. He calls only when I’m at work and unable to talk. When I call back after work, no answer. He also texts like this:

Let's do it.....let's start talking about Sinners.

I was speechless last night & I'm still a bit speechless. Need to see it a couple more times before I do a proper review, this is just a first viewing reaction but y'all, mess with me.

This movie is a masterpiece

I love that Taurus is so straightforward & fixed that all of our sign/categories are the same across 😂😂😂😂

Pisces is the only one that had a little *slight* variation

“Low low low, high high high, low low low, medium medium medium…” 😂😂

A tale of two movies:

Similar deal structures. Similar budgets.

One made $45M from 3300 screens, post pandemic, and won the weekend.

The other made $41M from 3600 screens pre-pandemic, and placed second.

And yet this is the coverage.

That was great. A vampire movie that's a lot more than just an excuse for vampire horror. Steeped in Depression Era Black history and culture, and powered by the Mississippi Delta blues (the music was brilliant), it's really like nothing I've seen before on the screen.

Why are there never stories about why people vote the way they do in black communities in Alabama or Mississippi? Why is it always the uneducated white people in poverty who need to be ‘understood’? 🤔

Warner Bros and Kodak released a 10+ minute video of Ryan Coogler explaining how he shot Sinners on film and how people can see it in different formats in theaters. This is some of the best film promo I’ve seen in years.

I had been trying to avoid promoting anything from Warner Bros lately because I have extreme trust issues with that studio.

That said, this breakdown of film format from Ryan Coogler (the director of Sinners) for Kodak must be seen.

We're told the FDA is now making plans to end most of its routine food safety inspections

That oversight work would be effectively outsourced to state and local authorities, under this plan
