My thread of ludicrous death scenes I’ve seen on #TCM (I apologize in advance for the cackling)

1. Some dopey John Wayne (They Were Expendable, I think?)

I can’t find a source for this that isn’t just a meme or a message board post. Where did he say that, and to whom?

I remember watching that on the Boston Pops show on PBS. That and the typewriter one.

The guy lived in Pacific Palisades according to one website (and of course that residence is no more). He’s also being sued, along with DoorDash? I wonder what that’s about.

Did they mention that Peter Lorre’s daughter was picked up by the Hillside Strangler and his buddy, but they let her go because they were big Peter Lorre fans?

The Debate Style That Propelled Charlie Kirk’s Movement (Gift Article)

A close read of some of Mr. Kirk’s most viral exchanges shows an approach that was polished and skillful — if not always fair.

Are we actually going to get to see Terms of Endearment tonight on TCM, or are they going to replace it with She Wore a Yellow Ribbon again? #TCMParty

Has @dieworkwear.bsky.social weighed in on this yet?

I always liked the way Edward G Robinson peaces out in #SoylentGreen. Listening to classical music, looking at lovely nature scenes… I’d pass on chatting with Chuck, though

Good riddance. Don’t come back anytime soon.

Some creepy guy is using Meta glasses to stalk women in SF, apparently for content clout. Then I thought maybe resisters could use these same type of glasses to document fascist abuses (less apparent to ICE goons than holding up an iPhone 🤔)

Nor tomatoes! There is an tv ad for some godawful protein drink where the drink is talking to all the other inhabitants of the fridge and there’s a tomato person in there!

It makes me irrationally angry!
