"For Your Consideration" is one of Christopher Guest's lesser films, but it's worthwhile to watch just for Catherine O'Hara's botox face, which she somehow made without prosthetics or digital effects. RIP to a legend.

Move right? Move left? Drop certain issues? Highlight others? Those all matter but not as much as simply waiting for the party-in-power to become unpopular.

These results underscore why Dems need good 2026 Senate cands in those "reach" states (IA NE OH TX FL AK SD): their coalition is now super-charged for off-year elections. Reliable, high educ, suburban voters have steadily moved to Dems. And if indies disapprove of Trump, map gets crazy real quick.

All the neighborhood houses conspiring together to each give Charlie Brown a rock is just a tremendous commitment to the bit.

Ozymandias but instead of trunkless legs of stone in the sand it's a presidential library submerged in the rising seas of climate change.

Go buckeyes!

@jowrotethis.bsky.social Just caught up on the "Best in Show" Rewatchables and thought you'd like to know Christopher Guest *did* turn a mockumentary idea into a TV show: "Family Tree" on HBO. Alas, it was Zazlav-ed from HBOMax but random clips are still on Youtube. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PLl...

Just as GOTG director James Gunn was un-fired by Disney after its deal to purchase Fox was finalized, I wonder if CBS will eventually un-cancel Stephen Colbert's Late Show

Cloud City ends uncertainty with Vader deal, Lando Calrissian says

Lots of negativity surrounding the new animatronic at Disneyland but I think it's quite a lovely tribute to Mr. Belvedere

U.S. tariff policy right now:

Why do you need to go into that tech coffin to talk to the Entity? It's the Entity, it's everywhere! Can't it make a YouTube video or a TikTok? Is there no Zoom in the M:I universe?

[George Wendt's coffin wheeled into the funeral parlor] grieving mourners quietly in unison: "ⁿᵒʳᵐ"

It's very funny that if you watch Andor, Rogue One, and A New Hope all back-to-back, the rebels learn about the Death Star, steal its plans, and blow it up within about 48 hours time.

Now they belong to the ages...

When you see the Pope is from Chicago

Pizzaballa can still become Pope if Mike Pence has the courage

Electing a new Pope on the first day of Biden's tour trying to rehabilitate his image is hilarious. Strong Veep finale energy.

I'm-a da pope-a!

"Master of the house? Isn't worth my spit! Comforter, philosopher and lifelong shit! Cunning little brain, regular Voltaire Thinks he's quite a lover but there's not much there. What a cruel trick of nature landed me with such a louse God knows how I've lasted living with this bastard in the house!"
